The Fire Phoenix and the Stars

Rundle Clark in his description of the symbolism of the bennu bird and its relationship to the phoenix makes a gigantic contribution. The phoenix bird is one of the lest understood myths of Ancient Egypt.

Clark: "One has to imagine a roost extending out from the deep of the Abyss. On it rests a herald (a grey heron) of all things to come. It opens its beak and breaks the quiet of the dawn with the call of life and destiny, which 'determines what is to be and what is not'...

The Phoenix embodies the original Word of God (Logos) or declaration of fate which moderates between the God-mind and created things...In a sense, when the phoenix gave out the primeval call it put into motion the cycles of the calander. So it is the father of all divisions of time, and its temple at Heliopolis became the centre of calendrical regulation."

The notion that the phoenix is closely connected to the Great Pyramid as the epoch and time keeper of pharaonic kingship as was suspected is confirmed. This is true in both a mystical and historical sense. The shafts in the kings chamber point toward specific stars and fixed their processional cycles and other cycles.

The Phoenix and the Great Pyramid as timekeepers of the stars of Orion and, by extension, the soul of the Osiris kings, clearly shows forth the connection. This is underscored by this quote from the book of the dead, "Who is he?" ...I am the great phoenix which is Heliopolis. (See chapter 17)

The phoenix, according to Rundle Clark, was a great cosmic bird (UFO?) which came from a distant magical land beyond this world; a place called the Isle of fire. it was a place of eternal light far beyond the limits of what was known. It was the place where gods were born and from where they were sent to this world.
