Greatings!
Good Morning, Stackers! I'm draggin my wagon but I have not by any means given up. I joined this quest on the 20240128 and it is my goal to write a nice little motivation for each day of the week highlighting ancient symbols and wisdom along with this simple push-up exercise that gets better as we get better.
Unicode
The Unicode Character for the Sun is “☉” (U+2609). For Linux this is CTRL+SHIFT+U, then type in the code "2609". You will see "u2609", then ENTER and you will see the ancient Sun symbol ☉.

We learn to pick our selves up and the rest of the day is a breeze. As the time moves on into the day we pay attention the hours, minutes and seconds. The ancient symbol for the Sun, our Sun that our planets and Earth (Unicode Character “♁” (U+2641) rotate around, is a circle with a dot in the middle. This can be found from Egypt to China and all along the Silk Road.

As today is Sunday it is pretty clear that the days of the week are Astrological by nature. Our ancestors in agriculture developed systems to recognize time and seasons. This enabled us to to hunt, gather, cultivate, store, fish and travel over the water and lands. In yesterday's post I shared the Al-chemical Hexagram with the signs of the zodiac. This illustration has the various sign of the days of the week that I have been using for these posts.
The days follow:
- Monday, Moon Day, U+1F315, 🌕
- Tuesday, Tiwas or Mars, U+2642, ♂
- Wednesday, Woton, Odin or Mercury, U+263F, ☿
- Thursday, Thor, Jupiter, Zues, U+2643, ♃
- Friday, Freya, Venus, U+2640, ♀
- Saturday, Saturn, Cronus, U+2644, ♄
- Sunday, Sun, Helios, Horus, Ra, U+2609, ☉
As you can see from the 1600 Al-chemical illustration above the days of the week are embedded into the hexagram. The Sun is in the center, The Moon is on the bottom. Mars is the upper right. Mercury is below Mars on the right. Jupiter is the upper left. Venus is the lower left (opposite of Mars). Saturn is on the top.
To this day calendars will either place Monday as the first day or Sunday as the first day. Does it matter? No. It is all a matter of when you start tracking your progress as a human and sharing that progress with others.
Now back to the above alchemical illustration. The term Alchemy is fascinated in its own right. The name that the Egyptians were called in the ancient times either by themselves or by the Greeks was the land of Khem. Just as we have articles in our Indo-European, Ayrian, Sanskrit, Hebrew and Arabic languages all have articles designating a noun. So Al+Chemy is Alchemy. Just like Al+gebra, Al-Salam (Sound like "Assalam" [footnote 1] and Al+cohol.
Let's circle back to the Sun and time. In Spanish when you hear the term, "¿Qué hora es?" or "What time is it?" it literally means, "Where in the sky is Horus?" Yes, we are asking where is the Sun god Horus? The clue here is the English word, "hour". Why is it spelled with an H? Because the legacy of human knowledge never wants to be hidden. The symbol for the Sun is the "Eye of Horus" or the "Eye of Ra" (Sun Ray) which is a circle with a dot, the eye in the middle.

If anyone has a non digital clock the face of the clock is the Sun, the hub of the hands are the eye and the hands. The hands are symbolic as "rays" relating to the Sun god Ra. One hand is the hour (Horus). The smaller hand is the minute or Moon. The smallest hand is the second < *sekw-. Thus we see that the ancient civilization of Khem aka Egypt is with us today. As we dig deeper, maybe we figure out how not only to push our bodies up, but to push up minds up too. Maybe we push up some heavy stones as well.

The above gif shows time and more specifically the second in action. All of the concepts discussed in these posts deal with the balance of things. The up and down of the push-up, the left and right of the mind, the masculine and feminine of humanity and of the mind.
We not only observe time but we act in it too. We work. We wind things up a little with each positive action. We build upon what is good and we reject what is useless. Even by observation we affect the outcome of what we observe.
The Sun Symbol shows up in China as "Ri" (Ray or Ra?) and it is drawn like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f6/%E6%97%A5-order.gif
For the symbol of Yang, Masculine energy the Chinese pictogram shows the sun by a hill. -- 陽 "Sun shining on a hill." Notice the above image with a circle and a dot! It's the Sun.
Christianity
As Sunday is the day for the 3rd Astrological Desert Religion, Christianity we can not forget the Son of God. On December 21st the Sun in the northern hemisphere reaches its lowest point in the sky. It begins the winter solstice. For 3 days the Sun remains nearly in the same observable position. Then on the 25th of December the Sun rises up into the winter solstice as a new birth. The Sun was dead for three days and then rose up.
Here is a list of "gods" born on December 25th: December 25 - Virgini Births
As a disclaimer I do not support that the term god means "diety" it is an Anglo-Saxon term for "ask" so, yes, you are asking for favor from these but I would also like to note that Buddha definitely was not a god and never claimed to be. I also want to note that the exoteric teachings of religions differ from the esoteric teachings. Many times the priest class would adopt a myth into a new teaching and precede to fill the coffers of the temple with new converts. Finally I want to point out that these gods may in fact be the same with different names for different times and may also be aspects of the Universal power that is observable inwardly and externally.
- HORUS An Ethiopian-Sudanese God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 3,000 YEARS before Jesus.
- BUDDHA A Nepal God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 563 YEARS before Jesus.
- KRISHNA An Indian God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 900 YEARS before Jesus.
- ZARATHUSTRA An Iranian God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 1,000 YEARS before Jesus.
- HERCULES A Greek God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 800 YEARS before Jesus.
- MITHRA A Persian God, born 25th December, by a Virgin- 600 YEARS before Jesus.
- DIONYSUS A Greek God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 500 YEARS before Jesus.
- THAMMUZ A Babylonian God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 400 YEARS before Jesus.
- HERMES A Greek God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 200 YEARS before Jesus.
- ADONIS A Phoenician God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 200 YEARS before Jesus.
- JESUS CHRIST A Roman God, born 25th December, by a Virgin around 1-30 AD.
For modern times many Biblical Scholars accept that Jesus was not born on December 25th and that the ancient myth of the Sun being born was appropriated by missionaries who recognized that monotheism and polytheism was a losing battle with the common man. It was best to make all holidays into religious ones for the sake of proliferation.
Another side of this too to the more spiritually inclined is the myths are not fake stories just made up to keep people busy, instead these myth are allegories meant to preserve astronomical information. The Bible is full of them. The twelve disciples are the 12 signs of the zodiac. The fish symbol Christians use is for the Age of Pisces. Look at the Pope's mitre, it's a fish head.
Here is an article where a Catholic Priest attempts to debunk the fish head. It's good to see many sources and give people credit. As with many attempts to debunk the attempt is to dissuade and distract from the obvious.
Do Catholics Worship Dagon the Ancient Fish God? From the Archives…
Did you know that Catholic bishops are actually high priests of Dagon, the ancient pagan deity of the Philistines? You see, the miter the bishop wears is a replica of the costumes worn by the priests of Dagon. That’s right, the priests of Dagon wore a head dress that looked like the head of a fish with an open mouth, and down their back they wore a long cape that looked like like the skin of a big fish. When you look at a Catholic bishop sideways you can see the open mouthed fish head and his cope looks just like that fish skin they wore! This proves that Catholicism is really just old fashioned devil worshipping paganism right? Wrong.
The bishop’s miter developed from the camelaucum; a form of crown worn in the imperial court in Byzantium. There are no pictures of a Catholic bishop wearing what we would recognize as a miter until the eleventh century and then it was a shorter, softer hat which only developed into its present form in the late middle ages….long after the worshippers of Dagon were dead and gone. -- Do Catholics Worship Dagon the Ancient Fish God?
So it's not the worship of a fish god, but it is the sign that the church knows we are in the age of Pisces. We left the age of Judaism which was the age of Aries. And the Jews left the age of Taurus which Moses made clear when he came down from the mountain and discovered the Israelites worshiping the bull "El".
Conclusion
Thank you for making it this far. Please forgive me for not posting this sooner. I may have some mistakes but I hope you also will forgive me. Enjoy the rest of your day. Do your push ups until 100k and after that keep doing them anyway. As a final note, this evening when you see the Sun set just remember that the brother of Horus is Set and that's where we get the sunset. Set in the myth of Horus kills him at night.

Footnote
- Al+Salaam - As+Salaam - incidentally Salaam and Shalom have this root "SLM" that shares "Solomon" which I discuss previously as Sal (Sun) + Mon(Moon] and is the balance of masculine and feminine which seems to make very good peace.
