3. The Galactic Meaning of “Tiamat”
In this case, the
motif is that of “Tiamat,” the Babylonian goddess who revolted, led
a cosmic war with other gods, and was eventually defeated by the
god Marduk.199 As I noted in
The Giza Death Star Destroyed, “Tiamat”
was not only the name for a “goddess,” but the name for an exploded
planet in our own solar system, a water bearing planet.200 Indeed, her name
can mean “salt waters” and can imply the “primeval waters,” making
her yet another symbol that can operate on a multitude of levels.
As I also noted in The Giza Death Star
Destroyed, her name may actually be a title conferred on specific individuals or rulers
of that now missing planet. She can refer to the earth’s oceans, as
well as another water bearing planet. And finally, as “primeval
waters” she can also refer to the “deep” or to the transmutative
aether or medium itself. In this last context De Santillana and Von
Dechind observe that she can also refer obliquely to the Milky Way
galaxy.201
