NIBIRU

[WitchBoy]

The Dark Star is the missing piece of the solar system puzzle.  Its existence can be derived from enigmatic references within ancient mythology and esoteric traditions.  Its presence in the outer solar system also allows us to explain many scientific mysteries.

This dark companion of the Sun is a sub-brown dwarf capable of maintaining its own planetary system.  It extends the 'habitable zone' of the solar system into the comet clouds, possibly providing us with the key to extra-terrestrial visitation of our own world, both now and in the distant past.

The symbolism of the Dark Star includes the 'crescent and seven stars'.  This web-site gives many examples of this hitherto ignored iconography, from gnostic artifacts to allegorical art and Masonic symbolism.  It also matches the Egyptian 'Winged Disc' and the Mesopotamian 'Nibiru/Marduk'.

Scientists have argued over the presence of Planet X for decades.  Scientific research has shown that a body 10 times the mass of Jupiter could not only be orbiting the Sun unseen, but could regularly pass through the actual planetary zone with impunity.  These rare appearances of the Dark Star help explain much mythological beliefs, including that of the Messianic Star.

The Dark Star Theory  begins by looking at parallels between the 'Nibiru' hypothesis, as proposed by the maverick scholar Zecharia Sitchin, and new scientific possibilities regarding 'light-emitting planets', usually known as brown dwarfs.  Sitchin's research is based upon his study of the cuneiform texts of the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia.

The ancient Sumerians described a fiery 'planet' which followed an elliptical orbit around the Sun, remaining hidden to observers on Earth for millennia at a time.  It is currently at its furthest point from us according to Sitchin's own writings, based on the appearance of Nibiru in 3760BC.  Even given the incredible distances involved, our scientists are now capable of detecting its presence: It may currently lie about 1000 times further from the Sun than the Earth, nestled among the comets. Orbital configurations of long-period comets have been analysed thoroughly by two scientists, Drs. Murray and Matese, and have consistently shown non-random clustering in the Oort Cloud.  This data indicates the presence of a massive planet in the Oort Cloud, sedately circling the Sun at an even greater distance millions of years ago.  I suggest that these two bodies are the same, and in my book I provide a physical mechanism to explain the transition between the circular and elliptical orbits, based upon the scientists' own research papers.

Despite its presence having been detected indirectly, it has not yet been pinpointed by a telescope or sky survey.  The controversial evidence provided by the astrophysicists matches the Sumerian celestial mythology, in terms of the nature of the planet itself, its proposed location in the sky and the angle its orbital plane makes with the ecliptic.

Its furthest point from the Sun (aphelion) lies towards the Solar Apex, and its closest point (perihelion) is the Egyptian Duat.

The teachings of the ancients enhance the potential for such a vast, undiscovered planet to exist in the solar system, yet that very evidence also creates a controversy about Planet X that makes most scientists shun the idea as 'cranky'.  Such is the conservative nature of scientific debate in our time.  Undaunted, this web-site explores the extreme possibilities with open-minded rationalism.

In the last few million years the dark star has periodically reappeared in the planetary zone, causing an Ice Age and, according to Sitchin, bringing the Anunnaki, or ancient gods, to our planet.  Mainframe computer simulations have shown that a brown dwarf can move through the planetary zone without directly changing the orbits of the known planets, and that both the circular and elliptical phases of the dark star's orbit around the Sun are, at times, unstable and subject to fluctuation .  If Nibiru's orbit was perturbed by galactic tidal effects (oscultation) or close passages past Jupiter (slingshots), then the resultant change in its binding energy would have had a knock-on effect on all the known planets, including Earth.  Therefore, according to the astrophysicists, Earth's own orbital binding energy may been subject to sudden and dramatic change as a result of the instability of the Dark Star.

[WitchBoy]

This realisation allows us to explore our own climate's history anew, as well as those of Mars and Venus.  It may provide an answer to the ebb and flow of Ice Ages, potentially linked to sudden changes in the Earth's orbital radius.

Many people convinced of the existence of Nibiru consider its reappearance in the planetary zone to be imminent.  This belief is accompanied by a very real concern that our planet will again be subject to significant Earth Changes, potentially catastrophic for our species.  Although the widespread belief in the 2003 hypothesis is not shared by this researcher, it has served to highlight the apocalyptic potential of the Dark Star.
Instead, I suggest that its last countenance took the form of the Messianic Star 2000 or so years ago.  So, unless Nibiru's unstable orbit is once again perturbed while among the comets, the problem faced by Humanity as Nibiru again enters the planetary zone will fall to our descendants 50 generations hence.

The appearance of the Christmas Star is itself a controversy.  Many speculate that the Star was actually just an astronomical conjunction of known planets, with astrological significance.  This ignores the utter contempt held by the Jews at the time for astrology.  Old Testament prophecies about the Messianic Star relate to an actual anomalous phenomenon, and I suggest this is tied in with reports of the 'red Sirius' anomaly prevalent during the Messianic Era.  The appearance of the bright red 'star' Nibiru near Sirius at perihelion provides the link between myth and observed fact.  It also allows us to understand some of the most mysterious esoteric teachings that have been passed down to us.

[WitchBoy]

The 'red Sirius' anomaly fits the Messianic tradition of the red star of Horus (Nibiru) being born from the white star of Isis (Sirius), a celestial event that has profound significance.  Following this train of thought within esotericism, I can reveal that 19th Century Rosicrucian-based Freemasons believed that that their mysterious 'Dark Satellite' achieved its most distant point from the Sun (aphelion) in 1881AD.  The time between 1AD and 1881AD is exactly half the Nibiruan Age of 3760 years between the start of the Hebrew and Christian calendars as described in the Dark Star Theory.
Many magical amulets (or Gnostic Gems) worn by folk at the turn of our era appear to show Nibiru and its moons, complete with the Greek inscription Iao,meaning Yahweh/Jehovah .  One is left in little doubt as to why the followers of ancient monotheistic religions found Nibiru's alleged existence so difficult to bear: The source of life on Earth may have originated in the primordial oceans of Nibiru's moons,  transferred to this planet through the celestial collisions described in the Babylonian creation myths of the Enuma Elish.

"On Earth, as it is in Heaven"
"As Above, So Below"


The Dark Star Theory discusses the modern science and ancient mythologies backing up these many remarkable claims.   There are numerous scientific predictions about what scientists will discover when they discover Nibiru directly.  The Dark Star Theory shows how the heretical knowledge of Nostradamus allowed him to describe its next perihelion passage, and the environmental catastrophe that he predicted for 3797AD. It offers proof that NASA may have been  aware of the Dark Star decades ago, and may even have sent Voyager 1 towards it in order to confirm its presence.

When most people think of ancient societies they tend to think of Greeks and Romans.  Asked to think of times before that, they might offer the ancient Egyptians.  Many are unaware that the first civilisations appeared in Mesopotamia, modern Iraq, some 6000 years ago.  They may also be unaware of the fact that these first civilised peoples, known as the Sumerians, developed an advanced society, complete with cuneiform writing, a complex religion, advanced architecture, book-keeping, mathematics, medicine, astronomical knowledge and law.  This civilisation appeared in vitro fully formed, rather like the ancient Egyptians emerging in the following millennium, whose earliest pyramid building created some of the finest monuments on Earth.  These fully fledged civilisations, appearing out of nowhere, seem to many to point to an unknown, lost civilisation which passed its knowledge and experience down the ages in some way.

There are two possible answers to this dilemma, both wholeheartedly rejected by mainstream science.  Firstly, the myth of Atlantis, and, secondly, the intervention by non-human intelligence.  Science derides both of these ideas as fanciful rubbish, aimed at a mass audience who are prepared to part with their cash in exchange for a flight of fancy.  Science probably has a good point when discussing many of the later civilisations and their mythology, many of which simply developed the Sumerian knowledge in a natural, evolutionary way.  But the Sumerians were quite clear about where they got their scientific knowledge and social infrastructure from – the gods who lived on Earth before them.  These gods were described in their historical records in a tremendous amount of detail, as if first hand knowledge existed of them.

This story is told by the scholar Zecharia Sitchin, who translated many of the earliest cuneiform texts, and stunned the world with his controversial interpretations.  The Sumerian gods, known as the Annunaki, came to Earth in prehistoric times, from their home-world of Nibiru, with the intention of setting up a terrestrial base and mining gold, an essential commodity on their planet.  Several hundred of them lived on Earth , cut off from Nibiru for all but one year in every 3600 or so.  They toiled away for tens of thousands of years until their sufferance lead them to innovate technologically.  To lessen their workload they genetically engineered a hybrid of themselves and one of the local species of man-ape.  These hybrid workers were humans, an intelligent, but sterile cross between the god-like extra-terrestrials and Earth apes.

In time, the Anunnaki tired of having to give birth to these IVF hybrids, and mankind was gifted with the ability to procreate.  This was probably the biggest mistake the Anunnaki made, as mankind proliferated to threateningly large population levels.  This account of our origins is clearly the Mesopotamian precursor to the Biblical story of the Garden of Eden.  In fact, the Sumerians called the land worked by humans E.DIN.  Eventually, Mankind was almost entirely wiped out by the Flood, an event foreseen by the Anunnaki, who fled the Earth and watched the demise of their cities and their human slaves in utter horror.  They were able to predict the coming Deluge because it occurred as a result of environmental impact on the Earth caused by the passage of Nibiru.  This may have been through accompanying cometary impacts causing a tsunami, or through the dislodging of the Antarctic ice cap, or possibly by global crustal displacement.   This story has overtones of the Atlantean myth.

[WitchBoy]

The Biblical Flood myth also has its Mesopotamian counterpart in that some of the gods, sympathetic of the coming catastrophic plight of mankind, warned a holy man called Ziusudra to build a submarine/Ark, and safeguard his family and livestock within it.  The other gods, worried about the runaway success of mankind, had decided to leave their human slaves to their fate, as a convenient way of ridding themselves of the mounting threat.

Following the Flood, the shocked Anunnaki decided to allow the surviving humans to live on Earth and spread across the globe.  In time, the power of the technologically superior, but vastly outnumbered, immortals waned on the Earth, mostly as a result of destructive in-fighting, and they largely returned to their own world.  Man was left to his own devices, with only the gift of knowledge bequethed by his departing masters to show for their Lordly, but negligent parenthood.  And so human history began, with the memory of the gods passing into myth with every successive generation.  Only now, as modern science catches up with the prehistoric knowledge, can we recognise the true meaning of the myths, 250 generations later.

[WitchBoy]

The other aspect of Sumerian mythology covers cosmology.  Their creation myths allude to the formation of the Solar System and a momentous reformation 4 billion years ago.  Their science included heliocentricity, a knowledge of all nine presently known planets (!), and the inclusion of the Annunaki’s home-world.  As the Anunnaki counted the Moon and the Sun as planets, Nibiru was known as the 12th Planet.  We would understand it better as Planet X (alluding both to ten and unknown).  It circled the sun every 3600 years, a number likely to be an approximation – the Sumerians had a complex numerology enveloped within their religion, their mathematics set in base 60!  I have calculated the orbital period to be 3756 years, give or take a year, a number that clearly does not lend itself to religious numerology.

More staggering still is the description of Nibiru’s orbit as that of a comet, complete with a cosmological theory as to how it attained this bizarre elliptical procession around the Sun.  The Sumerians held it that the early Solar System was violently altered by the interjection of a wandering planet.  This planet was a mighty world which had been travelling through the void, with its company of moons, before falling under the influence of our Sun.  It ploughed through the outer system of planets and ended up in an extremely elliptical orbit well out of kilter with the plane of the ecliptic.  The point where its perihelion crossed the ecliptic was in the band between Mars and Jupiter, the place of ‘The Crossing’ as the Sumerians called it.

At that time, a planet existed there, as predicted in modern times by Bode’s Law.  This watery world was known as Tiamat, but it was fated to encounter the mighty Nibiru during one of the latter’s crossings.  In fact, Tiamat was struck by one of Nibiru’s moons, a collision that sent the shattered remains of the watery planet into various orbits around the Sun.  The gouged core of Tiamat, and one of it’s moons, called Kingu, fell into the inner Solar System to become the Earth and Moon.  Other fragments followed Nibiru to become the comets, whilst still others settled into immediate orbits around the Sun as asteroids.  This explanation of the current format of the Solar System is as good a theory as any other, going a long way to explaining many of the present anomalies inherent within it; like the disproportionate size of our Moon, the asteroid belt, the comets, the anomalous inclination of Uranus (whose early brush with Nibiru occurred as it first entered the Solar System, before settling into its current orbit), and the major impact basins and Tharses on Mars (the result of the meteoritic fall-out from the collision of Nibiru’s moon with Tiamat).  Furthermore, the periodic catastrophic extinctions on Earth could be connected with the occasional cataclysmic passing of this dark star whilst in planetary conjunction with Earth.

[WitchBoy]

The only thing missing is the 12th Planet itself.  Astronomers have speculated about a companion star around the Sun before.  After all, most other star systems are at least binary stars.  Ours seems to be an exception.  It is possible that a companion has already been detected and catalogued amongst the other dim stars, without its proximity being realised.  If it has an elliptical orbit whose long axis is pointed away from the Sun, then its perceived movement across the heavens will be negligibly small.

Astronomers have long speculated about a black dwarf  in a very distant orbit around the Sun (90,000AU), calling their hypothetical candidate “Nemesis”, a name alluding to their assumptions about the disasterous effect such a usurper would have on the Solar System.  It’s name also alludes to the fate of their careers if it’s not found following their proposals!  So far, of course, it has not.  The argument goes that the closer the brown dwarf/giant planet gets to the other planets, the more apocalyptic the consequences, theoretically leading to extreme elliptical orbits and general chaos.  Obviously, the present, settled status quo should theoretically support a model where Nemesis is way out there, and stays that way.

With respect to its alleged violent meddling in the orderly Solar System, the 12th Planet myth speaks of much planetary destruction before the planets settled down into their relatively stable orbits.  Also, consider the reactions of the astronomical community to counter doom-mongering hype when there is an alignment of the planets.  They say that the additional gravitational effects of the planets lining up are negligible compared with the Sun.  So an alignment of the planets will have zero material effect on the Earth.  So it stands to reason that the periodic passage of a brown dwarf through an empty part of the Solar System would do little other than disrupt a few asteroids, sprinkle a few comets about and cause some environmental effects.  But not sling-shot planets about.  They can’t have it both ways.

[WitchBoy]

So Nibiru is Planet X.  It is a sub-brown dwarf with an elliptical orbit of 3756 years which reaches perihelion during its passage through the band between Mars and Jupiter.  Its orbit is inclined to the ecliptic by 30-40 degrees, a finding based upon the description of Nibiru’s journey through the heavens by the observing astronomers of Babylon.  Their description also leads to the conclusion that the orbit is retrograde.  Nibiru lies in the Southern skies.  Much of this data can be found in Zecharia Sitchin’s excellent book “Genesis Revisited”.  Sitchin is the scholar who derived and formulated the 12th Planet theory from the Sumerian texts, but much of his work is speculative.  Even so, he must be credited with the groundwork.


The Sumerians counted the Sun as a “planet”, so it is consistent that Nibiru could also be a failed star.  In fact, this would go a long way to explaining why they clumped stars and planets together, through their recognition that intermediaries exist in the form of brown dwarfs.



If the Anunnaki lived on our planet in historical times.  then our historical sources would more emphatically present them as real players on the ancient world stage.  They do not.  Their very mythological essence indicates their absence.  The pyramids at Giza and other extremely ancient monuments may indeed be their post-diluvial handiwork, but I suspect that the start of the Nippurian calendar in 3760 BC marks their momentous departure during a perihelion of Nibiru.  This momentous date is also the year the Bible claims as the start of the world, a claim that makes some degree of sense, in that it marks the time when our parental gods left us stranded on Earth to fend for ourselves.  

[WitchBoy]

Finally, the date of 3760 BC for Nibiru’s passage through our skies would lead us to the conclusion that its last perihelion occurred in 160 BC, if we were to take Sitchin’s claim of  an orbital period of 3600 years literally.  The astronomers at that time recorded Halley’s comet in 164 BC, yet no mention of a new star or planet in the sky was made.  Yet it must have been seen if it had passed through the Solar System.  So the periodicity must be wrong, the figure 3600 meant only as a significant approximation.

The only reference to a new star or planet during those times is the Star of Bethlehem.  I consider this anomalous astronomical phenomenon reported in the New Testament to be Nibiru as it made its stunning crossing through the Solar System. suffice it to say that it allows us to pin-point the last crossing point of Nibiru to about 4 BC, the date most modern scholars indicate for the birth of Christ.  Subtracting 4 from 3760 gives us 3756, the number of years I propose for Nibiru’s true orbit.  So the next crossing point will be 3756 years after 4 BC, which, taking into account the lack of a year zero, brings us to 3751 AD.  At this point in history, we are more than halfway though its current orbit, which means that it is now slowly starting to head back towards us.  In other words, the brown dwarf will be blue-shifting in its Doppler effect, whilst making only the smallest lateral transition through the heavens.  As cosmological theory holds that almost all celestial bodies are moving away from one another, then a blue-shifting speck of dim light should be significant.

The point is that its motion towards us is far more important than its vectored motion around the Sun.  Astronomers will assume that it has a great circular orbit, giving it an orbital period of millions of years.  But that is only an assumption.  Ancient knowledge indicates something entirely different.

[WitchBoy]

If astronomers were to announce the discovery of such a body, the implications would be enormous.  Firstly, we would be in a binary star system.  Secondly, the Dark Sister gives life to a race of extra-terrestrials who share our DNA to a large degree.  We are inferior, mortal versions of them.  As we learn the science of genetics, we will be able to discard the ape in us and become more like them, increasing our longevity and fulfilling some of our latent powers.  Thirdly, our entire religious and social fabric would be threatened.  Monotheism would still be an appropriate form of spiritual enlightenment, but the ancient texts would take on a more literal meaning.  The New Age would dawn.

Other, less obvious, implications would become apparent.  The issue of UFOs would take on a new light.  It is quite possible that some of the Anunnaki remain in the inner Solar System, either on Mars, on the Moon, in space stations, or even on the Earth.  Perhaps a combination of these possibilities.  UFO activity might reflect their continuing presence in our affairs.  The ‘contactee’ cases describing encounters with the Nordic-type humanoid extra-terrestrials may be related to the Annunaki in some way.  The authorities may have quite a good understanding of all this data, and the difficulties inherent in the space industries since Apollo and Voyager may reflect the hidden threat to us from space.  The continuing development of a coherent U.S. Space Force, rather than Air Force, could also be a reaction to the UFO presence.  It is also not beyond the realm of possibility that NASA’s failures to successfully study Mars are connected with this.  The loss of so many of their probes to the Red Planet is a statistical aberration, to say the least.

[WitchBoy]

The Anunnaki may have left their priests with the prophecy that a Messiah would appear when Nibiru returned once more, a Messiah sent by the gods to restore their Kingship on Earth.

Following this thread, the true meaning of “King of the Jews” becomes apparent.  This all boils down to the accuracy of the story of Nativity.  Jesus may have been an historical figure who was deified by later chroniclers who added the occasion of Nibiru’s passing to his birth.  This would have added authenticity to his alleged semi-divine status amongst various pagan sects clinging to the divinity of the Winged Planet.  But assuming that the events of the Nativity really did take place as reported, then the realisation that the Star of Bethlehem was the brown dwarf Nibiru takes on new meaning.

Consider the Three Wise Men.  They travelled from the East “following” the Star.  I suspect they were senior initiates in the ancient knowledge of Sumerian myth, perhaps travelling from Mesopotamia itself.  The prophecy left to them by the Anunnaki may have pinpointed where the emergence of the Christ figure would take place, and in whose lineage he would emerge from.  They were ‘followers’ of the Star of Bethlehem in the sense that they believed that it was the planet of the returning gods, or they may simply have watched its slow procession through the heavens over a period of months as it reached perihelion.  

Consider the extreme measures taken by Herod prior to the birth of Christ.  Conscious of the prophecy, he would have been aware that the appearance of Nibiru as a new star in the sky would herald the return of Kingship, and thus the overthrow of the status quo.  Again, his targeted victims were precisely located, which hints at a prophecy that was quite specific.  Even the Roman census may have been an attempt to locate the whereabouts of the returning King.  The lowly stable becomes a sensible proposition considering the paranoia at that time.  Joseph and Mary may have been on the run and keeping a low profile until Nibiru disappeared from view.

So what of Jesus himself?  It would not be a truly original suggestion to revise the identity of the Angel Gabriel as one the Anunnaki.  Like Gilgamesh, Jesus may be half-man, half-god.  As he reached adulthood, he may have been contacted once more by the Anunnaki remaining in the inner Solar System, and made aware of his semi-divine status.  Perhaps this occurred while he was in the desert.  Either way, he would have been assured of his immortality, perhaps given technological devices with which to perform miracles, and sent on a mission to restore Kingship through the teaching of a new era of peace.  In a sense, then, the Annunaki betrayed him.  The Jewish people were in no mood for turning the other cheek to the Romans.  His betrayal, trial and crucifixion were the result of the people’s disappointment that Kingship was not, apparently, about to return to Earth.  His resurrection may simply have been a result of his inability to die easily.  His appeal to his father on the cross would also take on new light.  His ascension to heaven is in keeping with the fate of Noah and Enoch before him, men who left Earth to live with the gods after their Earthly tasks were complete

[WitchBoy]

The Anunnaki clearly would have had good reason to meddle in the affairs of men, without overtly taking control of planet Earth.  I suspect that the proliferation of men, and the potential technological advances we are capable of as a result of having their genes within us, makes us a great threat to them.   3756 years is a long time in the history of man, but marks only one passing of Nibiru.  Seeing how we had progressed already, the Annunaki may have extrapolated to the next planetary crossing and envisioned a booming human population complete with space travel capability and weapons of mass destruction.  Their answer may have been to sow the seeds of peace within us, to create a docile Mankind.  It is clearly obvious that that has not happened.  Their genes run deep within us, and they are a race who enjoy warfare.

If it turns out that the last time of The Crossing was simultaneous with the birth of Christ, then we must ask ourselves why the Anunnaki chose to expose him to the wrath of the humans, who had expected a saviour from foreign tyranny.  Kingship was not returned to the world.  The gods continued to avoid overt contact with mankind, rather like UFOs seem to give tantalising clues to their origins rather than allowing themselves to become a measurable or predictable phenomenon.  When Jesus promised to return, perhaps he did so in the knowledge that he would live with the Annunaki as an immortal, and that the time of the next Crossing, in 3751 AD, would see his reappearance on the world stage.

Another point of interest: the use of the sign of the cross as a religious symbol pre-dates Christianity.  It was used by the Mesopotamians in the context of the 12th Planet.  Christianity made use of this symbol as it developed its religious doctrine after Jesus left Earth.  Perhaps the coincidental use of this symbol has further meaning attached to it.
