I had an interesting bit of synchronicity this weekend-on Friday evening whilst cleaning up the kitchen -I suddenly started thinking about Atlantis-no particular reason (or was there?) and the thought came to me that Atlantis was the cause of a lot of our current woes-and I wanted to get out of this frame of mind-and went and turned on the TV to the SCi-Fi Channel (I thought to catch an episode of Dr. Who for some "mindless" entertainment) but instead there was a program on called "In Search of Atlantis-New Secrets Revealed"!!
I was not going to post this as I wanted to do a search first as these topics have been discussed here-but my search returned a zero on synchronicity and some reference to ponerology for the Atlantis topic (I'll try again-perhaps I typed in the wrong parameters)although I am sure ponerology was part and parcel to Atlantis demise.
I did watch a little of the show (a subject I really am interested in) and saw the "cast" of characters they had as "experts"-including Zecharia Sitchin and Michael Therion- so I knew pretty much what the program was going to be-and of course the emc opened the show broadcasting from the Mediterranean-but one portion of the show caught my interest-as the city of Atlantis was described as a place as near perfect as could be (Plato) and the inhabitants cared nothing for gold or material posessions-but that power was their weakness-a hunger for power-and in the end they were brought down by internal strife (similar to the Roman Empire thousands of years later-and perhaps our own US Government today?)
Of course they had one side that says Atlantis really existed-and another camp that claims it is purely mythology or allegory-but no one seems to be able to agree on the location of the continent. One fellow insists it is in South America, another thinks Bermuda /Bimini is the locale and of course Greece and the surrounding islands are cited as prime locations-but something I read by Laura-and I will search for it and read it again-about the climate and surrounding environs described by Plato was all wrong for the Mediterranean. I recall her article on Troy being on the Western coast of Europe-and also something about a temple of Heracles (Hercules) being somewhere on the West coast as well.
Now Plato said if you look West, through the Pillars of Hercules-you would be looking in the right direction. Temples have pillars holding up the pediment over the entrance-and this temple was on the West coast-I do not now how the temple was oriented-but if the entry was facing West-and you stood on the porch "Looking West, through the Pillars of Hercules" you would be looking at the Atlantic Ocean-and possibly toward Atlantis.
There is a huge ridge of muck on the Alaskan coast that dates back to around the time Atlantis supposedly sank-indicating there was a disturbance of epic proportions-and strange ruins around Cuba and around Florida, Bermuda and Bimini- could Atlantis have stretched from the Dalmatian coast in North America with island archipelagos (the water level was supposed to be much lower then so these islands may have been much larger- perhaps even connected to the mainland?) at the Southern end-and including Antartica as part of the fabulous kingdom (I believe the C's said there was a city / state on Antartica called Gor, that was part of the Atlantean empire) although Antartica was not actually connected to the continent.
I will try the search function again and see what I come up with, but just out of curiosity-
Has anyone else experienced any connectivity to Atlantis-or had dreams connected with Atlantis?
o.k.-Have to go to the Cass site and use that search function-duh -Yes that works-seems I may be mistaken about the location of the Temple of Heracles (darn) LOTS of reading to do-I will report if and when I find a correlation. I would still like to know if anyone else has had any Atlantis related "flashes" though.
