Great Celestial Conjunction Crosses - Souls of Distortion

Greek Influence
There’s one inconsistency concerning the circular Dendera zodiac that I would like
to explain. The zodiac makers on one hand used the heliacal rising of stars to
denote the Galactic Cross and Earth Cross, while on the other hand they used the
exact constellations to denote the Galactic Equator. Scholars agree that the
temple of Hathor was built in the Ptolemaic period (304-30 BC) but the majority
of the Dendera complex must be dated back to ancient times of the Old and
Middle Dynasties. The Greco-Roman influence in the construction of the temple of
Hathor explains why different references to the Galactic Cross have been blended
and used in the Dendera zodiac. Referencing the Galactic cross by means of the
four cherubim is a custom that can be traced back to ancient Sumer and Babylon,
while the Greek and Romans used the exact Sun-constellation conjunctions to
denote celestial events (Also see the paragraph about the Greek Cross below).
Ancient astronomical understanding may have been blended with Roman/Greek
astronomical knowledge in the Dendera zodiac making it hard and confusing to
understand. It explains why many scholars have proposed different theories
about the enigmatic zodiac.
I offer the suggestion that the Dendera zodiac was created to commemorate
events of ancient times preceding the Pharaonic Dynastic times. These are the
first time of creation or Zep Tepi after the Great Flood and the inauguration
of the Pharaonic calendar that both coincide with Great Celestial Conjunctions.
Finally at Dendera we also find depictions of the Djed pillar and the deity Nut on a
pillar helping to raise the stones with the serpents. The serpents represent the
ecliptic and we suggest that the picture may symbolize the rotation of the Earth
Cross against the backdrop of the fixed Galactic Cross.

The Ankh and Djed pillars are the quintessential symbols that represent the
ecliptic and Milky Way crossing par excellence.
