Here is the story.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">The beginning was Chaos, black hole, indescribable void, from which emerged Gaia the Earth, and Eros the Love, <em>the most beautiful of immortal gods, who weakens limbs, and subdues in every god and every human the intelligence and cautious will.<\/em> From Chaos were also born the Night from above and Erebus, the darkness of <a class=\"link\" title=\"The Hell of Antiquity in Former Lives\" href=\"\/en\/initiation-mythology-hell-hades-styx-tartar-lives-anterior-double-astral-reincarnations.html\">Hell.<\/a> Then Erebus and Night joined together to father the Day, who lights mortals up, and Ether, Light. As for Gaia, the Earth, she gave birth to Uranus, the starry Sky,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">then the mountains and <a class=\"link\" title=\"comme chez les Sum\u00e9riens\" href=\"\/en\/sumer-mythology-creation-alchemy-the-original-genesis.html\">Pontos, the sea, a masculine creature<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><a class=\"link\" title=\"This Greek philosopher is also the spokesman of Atlantis.\" href=\"\/en\/greek-philosophy-mythology-timeos-critias-plato-s-atlantis.html\">Plato<\/a> the Sage taught us to <a class=\"link\" title=\"See Phaeton, Sun's Son\" href=\"\/en\/greek-mythology-son-of-the-sun-driving-chariot-of-the-sun-earth-on-fire-phaeton.html\">decipher<\/a> the mythological stories, let&#8217;s follow his example. What does this myth tell us, from which we would not have paid attention to? That the Earth is the mother of Heaven, and this double proposal, that the sky is the son of the earth, and with the earth he gave birth to giants, could well be translated as follows: sons of the earth went through the sky, to the <a class=\"link\" href=\"\/en\/modern-mythology-atlantis-in-the-stars-ufo-back-to-pleiades.html\">distant stars,<\/a> and came back. They <a class=\"link\" href=\"\/en\/mythology-giants-gargantua-archeology-giant-fossils-cyclops-giant-footsteps.html\">were giants<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"clear\">Thus, the giants or Titans who created us, could well be men from planet Earth, erudite enough to <a class=\"link\" href=\"\/en\/modern-mythology-atlantis-in-the-stars-ufo-back-to-pleiades.html\">travel to stars<\/a>, powerful enough to create a new race in their own <a class=\"link\" title=\"See Enki Created Man\" href=\"\/en\/sumer-mythology-anunnaki-oannes-nommo-viracocha-serpent-people-enki.html\">image.<\/a> But the other theory, i.e. alien creators who came from the Pleiades, is also possible. Earth-Gaia then joins her son Uranus-Heaven to give birth to twelve Titans, giant characters with extensive powers, including Cronos and Rhea, parents of future Olympians. Among the Titans Ocean, which the Earth floats on as a flat disk.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>I must mention here the surprised reactions of my most educated readers: Cronus the Titan &#8211; the one I&#8217;m talking about &#8211; has nothing to do with Cronos the Time, who is the origin according to Greek mythology. Wait a minute! Cronos and Cronus, my dear friends scholars, are two accepted translations for one Greek word <em>chronos<\/em>, meaning time. Initially, there is only one word and one name. The avatars of the French language and the legend winding wanted -one day of the nineteenth century- that these characters are distinguished.<\/p>\n<p>The arbitrariness of an era must not grimer reality of another era. Similarly, the Greek word <em>Theos<\/em> gave two words in French: <a href=\"#\">God<\/a><span class=\"note\">Dieu in French<\/span> and Zeus. Originally, these two are one. The funniest part of this latter confusion is that God is a Christian, while Zeus is pagan. One people, but don&#8217;t mix his two faces! Of course, Wikipedia will tell you that it is not. But if Wikipedia did enough to awaken you, I would not have carry the burden to develop this site. Over the Saga, you will find data that does not fit the template.
