As a spiritual-futurist my commentaries and articles deal primarily with an interpretation of current events in light of macro-universal forces at play.
Ancient lore and mythology makes for interesting bedfellows. The book of Genesis has Adam as the first man, first male. Ancient Greeks believed the first man was Pelasgus whereas the Toltecs, on the other side of the globe called the first man Tollan. Both came from the same source though according to Herodotus and Toltec folklore- and maybe actual history?
Greek history has a precise match for the four historical castastrophies that geologists and other scientists now are coming into agreement with in larger numbers. The Greeks wrote of four floods which were named: Phorcys-Dardanus, Ogyges, Deucalion, and Atlantis. In Greek myth, according to Herodotus and others, Phorcys was the founder of the Agean civilization and the leader of the people known as Pelagians (sea people).
The Hebrew Bible in Genesis, combines the stories of two of the four floods.
Pelasgus is depicted in ancient Greek art as having been disgorged from a massive sea snake. That same image appears on the other side of the world in MesoAmerican mytholoy of the feathered Serpent Tollan, Tolan, or Tolán is the name used for the capital city of two empires of Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica; first for Teotihuacan, and later for the Toltec capital of Tula.
After the collapse of the Teotihuacan empire, central Mexico broke into various petty states. The Toltec created the first sizable Mexican empire after the fall of Teotihuacan, and their capital was referred to by the same name as a reference to the earlier greatness of Teotihuacan.
What was once believed to have been separate and wild stories from many civilizations are now coming together as one united picture that has implications for 2012 and beyond for those that aren't living in a presuppositional world that's frozen in concrete.
