4. CENTURY OF THE CANCER
The
century of the Cancer (or the Crab) covers approximately VIII - VI centuries up
to AD, this means turnes our attention to 10-12 thousand years ago. To imagine
mankind of this time, the good imagination is required. Yet there was no
civilization in present understanding of this term, there was no consciousness
of the person (comprehension "I"!). How people perceived themselves?
Imagine
the soap bubbles issued from a tubule by the child. Imagine such quantity of
bubbles, filling all surrounding space. So it is possible to characterize
consciousness of mankind of that epoch: an instinct of the majority, herd.
But in those days children did not play soap bubbles, therefore associated
themselves with other mass objects available in the nature. For example: sand, a
herb meadow, a wood from trees, water in a reservoir, etc. But best of all
natural images was the star sky: the mankind represented itself (and
it has the real bases) reflection of stars in the sky. Therefrom goes the belief,
that the falling star specifies death of the concrete person. In a Century of
the Cancer began the device of mankind and places of its dwelling, relations
among themselves on « an image of stars ». At this particular time the
revelations which have degenerated nowadays in set of legends and myths have
been given, symbols and names of star congestions (constellations) have been
received, the firmament has been divided into twelve (originally on ten) parts.
From all said it should be clear, that the full symbol reflecting mass character
of the Century of the Cancer, to give inconveniently, but the origin of the
ecsoteric symbol nevertheless should be understandable: two small circles (symbols
of set of the embodied souls) rush inside uniform mankind (symbolized by the big
circle).
