The Dog Days of Summer,
as they relate to
the Dogon and Sirius

"These canicular days (from, say, July to August) get their name from the Dog Star, Sirius, the brightest star in the constellation Canis Major.

"During this time of the year, Sirius disappears into [and then reappears from] the Sun's glow. Both heavenly bodies are in conjunction, rising and setting at around the same time. Ancient stargazers thought that the heat from Sirius, the brightest star in the heavens, combined with the heat of the Sun to produce the hottest weather of the year...

"The first day of the 13 Moon Calendar begins on July 26. This date originally correlated to the heliacal rising of Sirius at 19.5 latitude north.

"The 13 Moon Calendar (a 28-day calendar based on the lunar cycle) has been in use for over 5500 years. From the Incan, to the Druidic count, to the Egyptian, to the Essene, to the Mayan, to the Polynesian, the 13 Moon calendar was used throughout pre-history as the harmonic standard, and is now being followed the world over by advocates of Galactic Culture.

"The calendars that start on July 26 may carry messages from the star Sirius, through the Sun, to the Earth... Calendars that begin January 1 may be circulating energy from both Sirius and Vega, since the Sun aligns with those two stars at that time: Sirius, the (13 Moon) New Year Star, is at its highest overhead at midnight on December 31, while Vega is located directly opposite, below the horizon, under our feet."

Of course, I can't present all of this info
about Sirius and not mention the Dogon:


"The earliest Egyptians believed Sirius - 'Sothis' - was the home of souls that have crossed over. It is the brightest star in our night sky. This belief is also shared by the Dogon.

"The Dogon (a tribe in eastern Mali) are famous for their astronomical knowledge, taught through oral tradition that dates back thousands of years, referencing the star system, Sirius. The astronomical information known by the Dogon was not verified by physicists and astronomers until the 19th and 20th centuries.

"The Dogon have described perfectly the DNA pattern made by an elliptical orbit created by the two stars of Sirius as they rotate make around each other. They believe Sirius to be the axis of the universe, and from it all matter and all souls are produced in a great spiral motion.

"The Dogon also claimed that a third star Emme Ya - 'sorghum female' - exists in the Sirius system. Larger and lighter than Sirius B, this star revolves around Sirius A as well. It has not been proven to exist, though some people have called it Sirius C.

"The Dogon calendar is quite nontraditional in that it is based neither on the Earth's rotation around the Sun (as is our Julian calendar) nor the cycles of the Moon (a lunar calendar). Instead, the Dogon calendar centers around the rotation cycle of Sirius B, which encircles the primary star Sirius A every 49.9, or simply 50, years."
