The 2010 Astrotheology Calendar charts holidays from ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome and elsewhere, extending into the modern era such as within Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, in a unique format never done before. This calendar is designed to demonstrate not only the ancient astromythology and nature-worshipping religion but also the comparisons between faiths, revealing their similarities, as well as any possible correspondences. For example, numerous Christian celebrations were deliberately placed to supplant Pagan predecessors, including not only Christmas and Easter but also many "saint days." These festivities and many more are discussed in this 47-page calendar-book, packed full of intriguing information by the author of The Christ Conspiracy.
Excerpt:
...for purposes of our study the various Egyptian festival dates have been converted to when they would have occurred after they were fixed with the Alexandrian Calendar, specifically to the 30th or 31st year of Augustus's reign, which corresponds to 1 AD/CE....
Major Christian holidays such as Christmas and Easter are founded upon Pagan celebrations and possess obvious astrotheological significance. In addition to these festivals, incorporated here are a number of feast days of Christian "saints," because these individuals are either clearly mythical, usually based on Pagan gods and goddesses whose worship the Church was attempting to co-opt, or partially historical, with their names and/or biographies altered for the same reason of superseding Pagan gods and goddesses. Their feast days are included in order to provide insight into what they may have replaced in the non- and pre-Christian festival calendars.
