Actually bredrin it has to do with the planet venus, when it was a comet streaking across the heavens it's glowing tail was in the shape of horns and the earthly reresentation of this planet, then a comet, was given as a golden cow or calf. When moses came down from the mountain the people were worshiping a golden calf or Venus as the new ruling deitie instead of Jupiter the worship of before. Before that it was the worship of Saturn. This has to do with the stories of Michael and the dragon and many other such writings. One Love

The Vedas said that the star Venus looks like fire with smoke. The star had a tail, dark in the daytime and luminous at night. This luminous tail, which Venus had in earlier centuries, is mentioned in the Talmud `Fire as hanging down from the planet Venus. Described by the Chaldeans the planet Venus `was said to have a beard. "Beard" is used in modern astronomy in the description of comets. The Mexicans called a comet `a star that smoked. A train, large enough to be visible from the earth and giving the impression of smoke and fire, hung from the planet Venus. Venus, with its glowing train, was a very brilliant body; therefore not strange that the Chaldeans described it as a `bright torch of heaven. Illuminates like the sun,' and compared with the light of the rising sun. `A stupendous prodigy in the sky,' the Chaldeans called it. The Hebrews similarly described the planet: `The brilliant light of Venus blazes from one end of the cosmos to the other end . The Chinese astronomical text refers to the past when `Venus was visible in full daylight and, while moving across the sky, rivalled the sun in brightness. Venus (Ishtar) `who is clothed with fire and bears aloft a crown of awful splendour.' The Egyptians described Venus (Sekhmet) : `A circling star which scatters its fame in fire . . . a flame of fire in her tempest.' They also called it by the name of Twntemocque, or `the mane.' The Arabs called Ishtar (Venus) by the name Zebbaj or `one with hair,' as did the Babylonians
`Sometimes there are hairs attached to the planets,' wrote Pliny. Hair or coma is a characteristic of comets, and in fact `comet' is derived from the Greek word for `hair.' The Peruvian name 'Chaska' (wavy-haired). is still the name for Venus, though at present the Morning Star is definitely a planet and has no tail attached to it. The coma of Venus changed its form with the position of the planet. When the planet Venus approaches the earth now, it is only partly illuminated, a portion of the disc being in shadow; it has phases like the moon. At this time, being closer to the earth, it is most brilliant. When Venus had a coma, the horns of its crescent must have been extended by the illuminated portions of the coma. It had two long appendages and looked like a bull's head. The Egyptians similarly, pictured the planet and worshipped it in the effigy of a bull. The cult of a bull sprang up also in Mycenaean Greece. A' golden cow head with a star on its brow was found in Mycenae, on the Greek mainland. The people of far away Samoa, primitive tribes that depend on oral tradition as they have no art of writing, repeat to this day: `The planet Venus became wild and horns grew out of her head.''
The long horns of Venus could have been seen without the aid of a telescopic lens. These horns were illuminated portions of the coma of Venus, which stretched towards the earth. These horns could also have extended towards the sun as Venus approached the solar orb, since comets were repeatedly observed with projections in the direction of the sun, while the tails of the comets are regularly directed away from the sun. When Venus approached close to one of the planets, its horns grew longer: this is the phenomenon the astrologers of Babylon observed and described when Venus neared Mars.

Venus in the Corner Pocket
The Controversial Theories of Immanuel Velikovsky
In 1950 a Russian-born psychiatrist named Immanuel Velikovsky authored a controversial book. Velikovsky was extremely knowledgeable in the texts of ancient peoples. Based on his interpretation of these texts, Velikovsky reached the conclusion that our solar system, with its nine planets, was not always the same as we see it today.
The book, Worlds in Collision, asserted that around 3,500 years ago the planet Venus was somehow ejected from the planet Jupiter as a comet. Comet Venus then started wandering through the solar system. Its gravitational field pushed other planets out of their orbits or changed their rotation.
Velikovsky attributed many of the disasters recorded in ancient times to this strange interaction the Earth had with Venus. Material that fell from Venus's comet tail into Earth's atmosphere caused the plagues visited upon Egypt as recorded in the Bible. "Plague is throughout the land. Blood is everywhere," cried the Egyptian Ipuwer. "Men shrink from tasting, human beings thirst after water..." According to Velikovsky's thinking, a fine rusty ferruginous dust from the comet's tail filtered down on the globe turning everything red.
As Earth went deeper into the comet's tail the dust turned to small stones and a hail of gravel pelted the Earth: "...there was hail, and fire mingled in with hail, very grievous, such as there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation," the Bible reads.
Velikovsky also credits the manna that nourished the nation of Israel during their forty-year wandering through the desert in Exodus to carbohydrates that fell to Earth from comet Venus's tail.
As Venus grew closer, the gravity of the planet caused the Earth to rock on its axis or stop and start its rotation. Earthquakes broke out and vital waves engulfed mountain ranges. Velikovsky speculates that this maybe when the legendary city of Atlantis sunk beneath the waves.
The changes in rotation, according to Velikovsky, caused a prolonged darkness over the Earth. His research discovered that in Iran scholars recorded a night lasting three days followed by a day lasting three days. The Chinese recorded the same phenomena. The Bible speaks of a day when the sun stood still to allow Joshua to finish a battle.
According to Velikovsky's work ,somewhere in the eighth century B.C., the Venus comet pushed Mars out of its proper orbit and into a close encounter with Earth. This caused earthquakes to shake the world: "Both the poles shook," wrote one observer at around 747 B.C. "and Atlas (who according to legend carried the Earth on his back) shifted the burden of the sky...The sun vanished and rising clouds obscured the heavens..." The year shortened and ancient astrologers were forced to develop a new calender.

Immanuel Velikovsky was laughed at and ridiculed by many in his profession and his books were banned for years. Almost all of his theories have now been proven by satellite technology and each year more and more of his theories are making complete sense and accepted by the worlds top scientists and others. Food for thought for you all, One Love.
