Vulcan the Part-time Moon of Venus - Asteroid 2002 VE68

Flag of Vulcan 2002 VE68

Venus' part time moon

On November 11, 2002 LONEOS became aware of a hybrid moon-asteroid, aka The Moonernoid. Moonernoid sounds better than asteroid or qasi-moon, plus it'll get children and the pubic more interested.

The good name for this 'minor planet' would be Vulcan 2002 VE68, since it crosses past Mercury and Earth. It's moon-like behavior is centered on Venus.

Why it is considered in some degree as a moon and not simply an asteroid?

Astrological Symbol for
Vulcan 2002 VE68

Because it exhibits 'orbital resonance' with Venus. Basically Vulcan is in sync with Venus. A year of Vulcan lasts nearly the same amount of time on Venus - about 225 days for a trip around the sun. Although Vulcan is not exactly in the same cosmic groove as Venus, it's in the same temporal groove, meaning it is doing a gravitational jitterbug with Venus.

Although Venus does not have a hardcore conformist moon like Phobos or our circular white wonder, it's officially recognized by the scientific community as a 'Quasi-Moon' like Cruithne 3753. Which creates the theoretical possibility of a quasi-planet and quasi-star - if such a heavenly body should follow such a wacky non-conformist orbit.

Apparently Vulcan 2002 VE68 has been a part-time moon with Venus for the past 7000 years and will continue to do so until about the 22th century - by that time humans, if they even look like humans anymore, would have colonized and turned it into a space station.

If we don't get to Vulcan by 26th century, it will become a free agent and fly off to who knows where. It might sign on as part-time moon somewhere else - maybe with Mars or Pluto.

Orbit of Vulcan 2002 VE68

The colours of this flag are red, blue, yellow, and white. There are three triangles of differing sizes. The smallest triangle is along the fly and has a six pointed star, representing the ancient wisdom texts of West Asia since before the reign of King Solomon.

The middle sized triangle with the four pointed 'cross star' represents the texts of wisdom that are synchronized to our modern calendar, plus or minus 333 years. Subsequently the name of each asteroid has been calibrated to this significant zero year. Current example being Vulcan, it was made aware to Earth in 2002 and Vulcan's first name was calibrated to this zero point of humanity. Also in this triangle we see the outline of V which stands for Venus and Vulcan.

The largest triangle along the fly makes the crescent moon appear small, but in fact it is the same size as the other symbols. This moon symbolizes 2002 VE68 Vuclan's ability to walk the line between moon and minor planet. The moon also represents all other wisdom texts that manifested after the dominant zero calibration point.

Idealized view of Vulcan passing by Venus

In the long stripe is a Vulcan hand gesture that means to 'live long and prosper.' Around the hand is a counter charge of colours relative to the stripe. This was done to honor the enchanted ideas of harmony, detachment, and duality from East Asia. And not to mention Star Trek.

New Zodiac Sign - Orion the Hunter

Symbol for Orion
when the Planets strike 'high noon' on the Celestial Sphere

Just as the ecliptic reaches the northern zeinth of the Celestial Sphere, the ecliptic passes by the northern tip of Orion, in between Gemini and Taurus.

The symbol for Orion is essentially the symbol of Mars but with a dash. It should always be pointed upwards since it represents the most northern point Sun and Planets on their path of Celestial Sphere. The middle dash represents Orion's Belt, which is perhaps the most distinguishable group of stars on the Celestial Equator.

New Zodiac Sign - Sextans the Star Compass

Constellation of Sextant

just below Leo

Libra the Scales has been a lonely odd ball of the Zodiac. Well its time as the odd ball 'inanimate object' is over, another object has joined the ranks in the pathway of the planets - Sextans.

Sextans the Star Compass is another constellation that tips on the path of the planets. It is snuggled under the belly of Leo. This extra sign cuts into Leo's space or one can consider people born during under this sign as having two signs - Leo & Sextant.


Symbol for Sextant the Star Compass
merged five pointed star on triangle

So what are the attributes of persons born under the 'Sign Sextant'? A predisposition for navigational skills, logical thinking, and love of star gazing. Sextant people should have a wonder lust to explore new worlds, ideas, and feelings. Not just in the an astronomical way but also though art and poetry, yet anchored to a cosmic knowing.

New Zodiac Sign - the Whale or Cetus

Constellation of Cetus the Whale

Ever since the modern adoption of 88 constellations. A few star systems have been conjoined to the ecliptic. In between Aries and Pisces at one corner the constellation of Cetus the whale or 'sea monster' sneaks in to pathway of the planets.

Cetus is the root word for the group of mammals that live in ocean -Cetacean.

It's symbolically positioned like a end of they year Christmas bonus. It's kinda like leap year, the planets sometimes cross its pathway.

Symbol for Cetus

The Astrological Symbol for Cetus is the tail of a whale. It looks like a crescent moon with an open end. the left end is slightly titled while the right end in supposed to be straight.

The Last Starfighter and Enemy Mine Insignia

The Last Starfighter Video Game Icon

Cosmic Right Wing Power?

Two classic science fiction movies from the 1980s are The Last Starfighter (1984) and Enemy Mine (1985). Coincidentally both movies feature a friendship between the human race and race of lizard like aliens.

The insignia of the video game in The Last Starfighter uses the colours red, blue, white and black. In the center is a straight sword with wings near the handle. At the bottom is a rising half a blue star or planet. In the background are stars represented by white dots. On the left and right side of the sword are a pair of red and blue parabolas, that match the design of the sword.

BTA Patch
An Anthem for Cosmic Left Wing Brotherly Love?

In the alternate universe of Enemy Mine Dennis Quad plays a flight officer in the BTA, which is short of Bilateral Terran Association. The Letters of the BTA patch are stylized shapes that use triangles, rectangles and odd shapes to represent the BTA. Enemy Mine was originally based on a WWII film called Hell in the Pacific.

Starfighter Insignia

But in the Last Starfighter Alex Rogan, played by Lance Guest, is recruited to join the gifted Starfighter Gunner Troop. The elite starfighter patch consists of a stylized white star with a long tail pointing downwards. In between the four pointed white star points is another background yellow star with four points. The top border half of the star burst consists of a black rectangle. On the lower half of the star burst is a rainbow shaped icon of black, white, dark blue, and lighter blue followed by a thin white ring and black border.



Helmet of a Starfighter
for humanoid use

In the Last Starfighter a video games disguises itself as an entrance examination for an elite corps of military gunnery positions. We still live in a time where video games are still considered 'child's play.' But in the not so distant future and in this classic 80s movie, video games will be as big as Hollywood and serious military business.

In Enemy Mine the human and lizardman alien are initially forced into an alliance for survival but human nature and lizardman nature are able to harmonize into trust and friendship.














Before the domination of home video game systems, video games were usually played in public. In the Last Starfighter the hero rocks the cosmos with his skillful command of the controls. On the side of the video game cart is the first insignia of the video game. But also on his helmet we see the official mark of 'Starfighter.'

Pillars of Creation Flag

Hercules Cluster Flag

Flag of Hercules Cluster of Galaxies

The Hercules Cluster contains about 300+ galaxies and is found in the Hercules Constellation.

This cluster of galaxies was discovered in 1714 by Edmond Halley but catalogued by Mr. Messier on June 1, 1764. It's in Hercules armpit and due north of the Zodiac Constellation Scorpio.

The colours of this flag are navy blue, black, white, and yellow. In the center is a heraldic shield that represents the parental line of Hercules. The lighting blot represents his father, the God Zeus, and the Owl represents his mortal mother Alcmene,who was considered the wisest of mortals.

There are two dimensions of a counter charge. On the shield is an orb of yellow and white. The white half represents the divine wisdom of his heavenly father, and the yellow half represents physical power of his earth mother. The background field is also counter charged to represent the union of night and day power under the command of Hercules.

There are 12 galaxies in white that represent the 12 labors that Hercules was to perform for the King of Mycenae. To review the 12 labors of Hercules were to

(1) Kill the Nameon Leion
(2) Destroy the Lernaean Hydra
(3) Capture the Ceryneian Hind alive
(4) Trap the Erymanthian Boar
