PISCES GRANDE, KARO-FISH, VESICA PISCIS, OANNES/JONAH/JANUS/JOHN/KHIDR/HOV-HANNAS,

YIN AND YANG FISH OR DOVE AS A  symbol has always been popular from the beginning of time with 'followers' for it shows a couple of fish, Yin and Yang, where Yin's eye is in/on the Yang fish, and Yang's eye is in/on the Yin fish.

The natural 'barometer" in birds is thought to have evolved from ancient fish sense organ.

Air Solubility in Water

Amount of air that can be dissolved in water - decreases with temperature - increases with pressure

To avoid potential problems, most endotherms have mechanisms for offsetting the energetic risks posed by storms. One possibility is to use cues to predict oncoming storms and to alter physiology and behavior in ways that make survival more likely.

Humidity lowers air pressure by displacing nitrogen and oxygen molecules with lighter water molecules. Differences in humidity can cause storms to form.

Differences in temperature causing differences in air density lead to differences in air pressure. As the temperatures of portions of the atmosphere increase, the air in these portions expands and rises, causing low-pressure regions. Meanwhile, as the temperature decreases, the air contracts and sinks, causing high-pressure regions. These differences in atmospheric pressure are caused by unequal heating by solar radiation. Different regions receive different amounts of solar radiation and have different surface compositions. These compositions absorb, reflect and reemit radiation in different ways. The relative difference in atmospheric pressure between two regions can be measured with a spring or mercury barometer. Atmospheric pressure is also known as barometric pressure for this reason.

Pressure is defined as force per unit area, and the atmospheric pressure is consequently the weight of the air column perpendicular on a certain square area from that area to the top of the atmosphere. The value of this pressure is large, approximately 14.7 psi at standard temperature and pressure conditions. This pressure does not crush terrestrial organisms because their bodies are above this pressure, the reason why cuts bleed out instead of sucking air in. The value of atmospheric pressure decreases as altitude increases, because the height and weight of the pressure column from the top of the atmosphere to this higher altitude decreases.

New research indicates that a bird’s (Dove) ability to detect changes in air pressure is the evolutionary remnant of an ancient sense organ found in fish Koi.  The organ is most complex in fast flyers such as swifts. This throws new light on the evolutionary trajectory of sensory systems after tetra-pods left the oceans and moved onto land.

How birds judge air pressure scientists have a couple of theories on. One is that birds may be able to detect it through their inner ear, the same as how we detect changes in air pressure in our own inner ear when we make a fast change in altitude, like when our ears pop. The other, the one I hold to, is that the birds detect air pressure through the huge air sacs that connect to their lungs that fill much of the space inside their bodies.

Barometric pressure has a direct effect on all life around us. The amount of atmospheric pressure is constantly changing and sudden changes can create health issues such as migraines in people to affecting behavior in animals. 

Barometric pressure declines predictably before inclement weather, and several lines of evidence indicate that animals alter behavior based on changes in ambient pressure. Here we examined the effects of declining barometric pressure on physiology and behavior in the white-crowned sparrow, Zonotrichia leucophrys. Using field data from a long-term study, we first evaluated the relationship between barometric pressure, storms and stress physiology in free-living white-crowned sparrows. We then manipulated barometric pressure experimentally in the laboratory and determined how it affects activity, food intake, metabolic rates and stress physiology. The field data showed declining barometric pressure in the 12–24 h preceding snowstorms, but we found no relationship between barometric pressure and stress physiology. The laboratory study showed that declining barometric pressure stimulated food intake, but had no effect on metabolic rate or stress physiology. These data suggest that white-crowned sparrows can sense and respond to declining barometric pressure, and we propose that such an ability may be common in wild vertebrates, especially small ones for whom individual storms can be life-threatening events.

Barometric pressure measures the amount of downward force that the atmosphere exerts within a specific air column. Barometric pressure travels in terms of peaks, flats and valleys and will rise and fall accordingly. Atmospheric pressure is a key means to predicting weather 12 to 24 hours in advance and has a very high accuracy rate. Typically, pressure drops in front of a weather system and then will rise as the weather systems moves out of the area. High pressure typically entails bright, blue, clear days or nights while normal pressure periods results in scattered clouds. As the atmospheric pressure gauge drops, expect increasing clouds and possibly storms as the atmospheric pressure continues to drop.

As people may feel the effects of barometric pressure changes in terms of ear pain, dizziness or headaches, animals too are affected by pressure changes. Many animals rely on scent and scent is highly dependent on atmospheric pressure. When low pressure is in the area, scent will travel further and higher in the atmosphere but as the millibars continues to drop resulting in rain, fog or snow, the scent will hug the ground and last longer. On high pressure days, scent will dissipate quickly.

The overall relationship between barometric pressure and changing weather conditions results in changes in animal behavior. Hunters and anglers alike monitor the sudden drops in millibars to predict an increase in animal movement. This increase in movement can be attributed to the animals especially fish expecting inclement weather and survival instincts to feed and stock up on energy to survive a period of discomfort associated with long lasting storms.

The moonfish, which are about the size of a manhole cover, is now considered the first-known warm-blooded fish, scientists report in the journal Science. Through some physiological tricks, the fish is able to keep its entire body — heart, brain, swimming muscles and viscera — warmer than the surrounding water.

I posit that the Sacred Geometric Symbol of Visica Piscis represents the tri-unity of god the savior of humanity. The Visica Pisces symbol as a fish represents the Natural BaRo-Meter the Sage used to predict the weather. The Barometric Gnosis that measures, atmospheric and psychological pressure/weight on humanity. The principal of the OneAll when understood and applied to self is the only key that empowers. Understanding positive, negative or neutral buoyancy, physical or psychological is understanding the reality of the highest wisdom.The Love Fish or the Yoni is a symbol of Sacred Unity, the principal for the creation of longevity and posterity, the understandind that the unity of one is the unity of all complimentary and contradictory life forces in creation. The understanding of how Yin relates to Yang,  Water to air, within to without and above to below. When seen by the third eye, through the lozenge of Sacred Geometry or observed through the eye the natural scienctist/metreologist of old, the meaning communicated, promoted primarily, is how to achieve harmony in unity, both on the Vertical and Horizontal plains of existance. Time, our path in life, the dimention of self realization, makes it absolutly necessary for us to understand the simple yet esoteric meaning of the KaroFish the FishMan, if our goal is prosperity, longevity and posterity. None of this would be necessary of course if we understood early the advantage of chastity.
All preserving and protecting revealing and teaching, gods/demi-gods, caring fathes/mothers, from the beginning of time, chronologically brought forward by Manu, who was saved by the fish from the flood, seems to have passed on in Sumeria to the House of Ea/Hea/Haya, to Oannes to Jona to Hovannes in Armenian and closer in time to John the Baptist and Christ/Ichthys all reffered to the Karo/Carp/Koi, the sweet waters FISH. The interactive fact communicating goldfish.
The name Karo/Carp/Koi  means Interactive, as in reciprocal action, effect, or influence. and it means Comunicating as in the act or process of communicating, fact of being communicated. The imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs. Something imparted , interchanged, or transmitted.

I believe the ability of the KaroFish to achieve perfect neutral buoyancy under positive and negative pressure explains best its use as a savior, of humanity. After all, whom among us can say we dont need help to live in peace and harmony. The fish as the barometer, is the avatar of hope, the ultimate knowledge of reality.

The feminine noun תר (tor) or תור (tor), meaning dove or rather turtledove (Genesis 15:9, Numbers 6:10, Jeremiah 8:7).  The groom of the Song of Solomon compares his bride's eyes to turtle-doves. He uses the word יונה (yona), which is the regular word for turtle-dove, even though, human eyes could be said to look like doves, more likely it is referring to how  her eyes act like doves eyes: literally always sharply focused, searching for the place to land. The core meaning of this root is not so much a scouting or exploring eyes, but rather referring to that upon which the eye falls and is not distracted, or what attracts the eye; beautiful or dangerous things. Hence the women's apparel and the white dove. Also notice the similarity with the word תורה (tor-ah), which is the word Torah, meaning Law.

In Jonah 2:1 (1:17 in English translation), the Hebrew text reads dag gadol (דג גדול), which literally means "great fish". The Septuagint translates this phrase into Greek as mega ketos (μέγα κῆτος). The term ketos alone means "huge fish", and in Greek mythology the term Ketos was closely associated with sea monsters. Jerome later translated this phrase as piscis grandis in his Latin Vulgate. However, he translated the Greek word kētos as cetus in Gospel of Matthew 12:40: "For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth."

I collected a lot of, what I consider to be corroborative info off the net, for those who wish to know why I am so sure of what I Posit. There is so much on the fish out there, it makes me dizzy. I dont have the time to turn it into a thesis, so to sleep better I have to let it out. I hope my assertive approach does not offend but will help you stay focused if you need to dive deeper. Stay neutral buoyant.

The Koi Fish Legend for starters

There are many ancient legends involving the koi fish. The oldest of the legends is the story of when to Chinese philosopher Confucius was born a son in 533 B.C., King Sho-koi of Ro presented to him a magoy, a black carp, as a gift. According to this legend, all modern day koi, and their bright colors, are from the magoy given to Confucius by the king.

Yin Yang and the Koi Symbol
In feng shui, the koi is tied, associated to the yin yang symbol. In fact, the black and white tear drops of the yin yang symbol are said to be representations of two koi, one male and one female. The eye of each teardrop is symbolic of the constant watchful eye of the koi. The pairing of fish is also seen in the context of the yin yang symbol in union, as a pair of koi is often used as a good luck symbol for a happy union, marriage.
Harmony and Happiness
The koi is synonymous with harmony and happiness. The two yin and yang koi complete each other and create a perfect balance of the negative and positive energies of chi energy, which is the life-force of all things on earth.
The Mosaic Pavement The black and white checkered floor has existed in temples since the times of ancient Egypt. More than simply decorative, the mosaic pavement bears a profound esoteric (special) meaning. Today it is one of Freemasonry’s most recognizable symbols and is the ritualistic floor of all Masonic lodges. The pavement is the area on which initiations occur and is “emblematic of human life, checkered with good and evil.” “The mosaic pavement in an old symbol of the Order.

The symbol of the cosmic philosophy or religion of Tao is yin-yang. This symbol is also popular with New Age followers and shows a couple of fish, Yin and Yang, where Yin's eye is in the Yang fish, and Yang's eye is in the Yin fish (raising the question of narcissism if one fish winks to the other!)The Yin‑Yang represents the Chinese philosophy of how apparently opposing forces interconnect, interact and are mutually dependent in the physical, natural world.

Value judgements, also, have opposites (for example love and hate), and the symbol has been extended to religious philosophy and theology.

Why is Barometric Pressure relevant as a contradictory yet complimentary symbol.

Barometric pressure has important effects on water chemistry and weather conditions.

It affects the amount of gas that can dissolve in water. More gas, such as oxygen, can dissolve in water under higher pressure/baro when compared to lower air pressure. For instance, more oxygen is dissolved in water at sea level than at high altitudes.

The pressure of the overlying air forces more gas into solution. As the overlying pressure decreases, gas is released from solution. A common example of this is when someone opens a carbonated beverage.

High barometric pressure supports sunny, clear, and favorable weather conditions, but lower levels promotes rainy and cloudy weather conditions.

This atmospheric parameter has been used for hundreds of years to forecast weather conditions. Differences in barometric pressure over large inland lakes can produce seiches, which affect water levels in the lake and adjoining estuaries.

Having digested the above let me reflect on the fact that n age of spiritual knowledge and learning is always succeeded by one of material knowledge and learning. The present 'Age' shows ignorance of lofty spiritual ideas expressed in parables and allegories by ancient sages. These ideas have become covered or distorted in the course of time, most are taken in their literal sense, which completely distort the science behind all spiritual teachings. These ideas, I believe were originally based on the study of the natural sciences. Phenomena scientifically observed and symbolically communicated to assist humans to reach the higher, spiritual zones they desired. The zones of their better nature.

However there is a sacrifice that needs to be made to achieve spiritual buoyancy, to achieve unity of the self with the all, to learn to love, to live long and accept posterity.

To reveal, to heal, to help humans understand how to help themselves stay buoyant. Vishnu teaches self-preservation, through his Fish Avatar Karo Matsya.

These key/sacred ideas and tools used by priesthoods to promote buoyancy and longevity in life are Not forgetting their attempt to prove to fearful humans that immortality 'is' a reality.

The Visica Piscis, 'fish bladder' is the best example I can offer to demonstrate my point, where the ignorance - of the last 5000 years I speak of - is glaringly obvious.

Bellow I have grabbed and pasted anything and everything I found on the FISH published on line that I felt could help the reader focus on the 'Eureka' moment of Archimedes. I am sure the that the fish is the key that demonstrates the concept of buoyancy under extreme atmospheric and psychological pressures. What is being expressed in these 'fish' Icons, parables and allegories by ancient sages and more contemporary saviors Piscean personalities is the ability of the fish to demonstrate the concept of levitation, buoyancy on the vertical plain.

These ideas have become covered or distorted in the course of time, most read and taken in their literal sense, completely distorting the science behind all spiritual teachings.

A priesthood, owing to its high learning, originally constituted a separate super-conscious class. In the course of time (the last 5000 years) it degenerated, and continues in ignorance, to live on, upon the long-lost reputation of its ancient name, unable to explain the science underlying the sacred scripts of which they are the nominal guardians.

It seems to me a New Age is upon us and an attempt should be made to look afresh into all religious literature by those who can show that there is a simple science upon which such writings rest.

I hope my attempt to try to explain that there is a simple science behind one of these seemingly unimportant allusions, will not offend, but encourage more to come deep sea diving with me and my BUOYFISH who wants to say that inside an aspiration (inside Visica Piscis) is a benevolent wish, a collective hope, and a cherished possibility for buoyancy to help cultivate greater harmony and equanimity in the world.

In the Bunda-hish, the fish continually watches the devouring lizard, thus preserves the tree of Life. It is stated that to keep away the evil spirited lizard lurking in the mud, Ahura-mazda, the highest, created ten 'Kara fish' which at all times continually 'circle round the Hom, Tree of life, so that the head of one of those fish is continually pointing at the lizard.

Zarathustra, after being assailed by Ahriman, the Power of Darkness, withstood the assaults and praised all the powers of the god of light for his success. Among these powers, he invoked the 'Karo fish' the fish that live in the zone beneath, in the waters, in the bottom of the deep broad sea. The watery underworld of sacred knowledge for some.

This allegorical fish, some say to be a production of Ahurmazd, a Supreme Divinity and the highest Principle of Light, especially opposed to the allegorical lizard,- the outcome of matter that would drag down the scintilla of the Atma which, on its peregrinations through the circle of necessity, evolutes as man and has been represented as the tree of life (Gogard).

One of the best of the weapons of the Kara-fish is said to be its all-penetrating sight. It is necessary to get a clear idea of this visual-power to understand the full significance of the allegory.

The fish was the avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu.

In the Vendîdad, the word is "Karo Matsya" 'karo fish'. "Matsya", in the Avesta language, means fish. The word "Kara" is derived from the root "Kar", to behold somthing precious, "Karo-Matsyo" is translated as the all-seeing, always watchful, inner and outer vision, light, thus the precious to behold, all seeing all knowing Fish, that exists in the element of water.

The Numerology of Karo
The name Karo has a numerology value of 3.

In numerological terms, this means the following Communication

The act or process of communicating; fact of being communicated.

The imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs.

Something imparted, interchanged, or transmitted. Interaction

Reciprocal action, effect, or influence.

Karo is best represented by Sacred Geometry, Visica Piscis the 'inteface' that imparts or interchanges thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs. Karo is something imparted, interchanged, or transmitted. 'Interaction' or reciprocal action, effect, or influence. Lets call it love or Venus/Eros, or my favorite Kypris/Aphrodite ans Adonis, Posidon, Neptune, Janus and on and on, our great grandmothers and great grandfathers all. Piscean love triads, triangle, tri-unity. Pisces Constellation, Piscis Grande
The Vesica Piscis is a symbol made from two circles of the same radius, intersecting in such a way that the center of each circle lies on the circumference of the other. Visica Pisces, is said to be the gateway to Super-consciousness. The Vesica Piscis, is the sacred doorway through which spirit enters the world of matter. Vesica Piscis is 'God's unity'. Vesica Piscis takes us to sacred geometry and creation theory.

The name Visica Piscis literally means the 'bladder of the fish' in Latin revelation. It is important to point out that it does not mean a fish or fishes.

The geometric construction of the kabbalistic Tree of Life for example begins with the Vesica Piscis.

THE LOZENGE is a diamond shape often with rounded rather than pointed ends, the lozenge is often overlooked, but is often used as a representation of the female genitalia. As such, its most popular appearance is probably as the Vesica Piscis, again the sacred doorway through which spirit enters the world of matter. In heraldry, for example, the lozenge is used in place of the masculine shield, tellingly, to denote a coat of arms belonging to a woman or a non-combative male, such as a member of the clergy.

THE SEED OF LIFE forms a part of the construction of the larger Flower of Life geometric pattern. Its creation is simple but the hidden meanings within it are complex. Like the Flower of Life, it contains the circle, the Vesica Piscis, and the points of the hexagon or six-pointed star. The seven circles that form the symbol, signify the six days of creation, and the central circle represents the seventh day of rest.

The Hindis think that Brahma, their god of creation, was in origin a fish. Hindi mantras were transmitted by all the revealing prophets, like Elijah, Jonah, Khidr, and Abraham, Jacob, David, Solomon, Zakariya, John (the Baptist) ICHTHYS. So many.

Sacred Geometry seems to recapitulate and symbolize a process of cosmic manifestation.

Visica Piscis 'emerges' again and again over a great period of time, (5000+years), more examples, the story of Yunus (Jonah), Prophet Khidr standing on a fish always buoyant in nutral the waters. Always a divine messenger, revealer, teacher, who invited people to 'God's unity', Visica Piscis.

According to the Esoteric Doctrine, man is made up of seven principles, the names of the seven principles are as follows:– (1) Tanu (2) Ushtana, (3) Khepra, (4) Tevishi, (5) Bautany, (6) Urvan, (7) Fravashi. Translated 1)the Body; 2) Vitality; 3) Astral Body; 4) Animal Soul; 5) Human Soul; 6) Spiritual Soul; and 7) Spirit.
Hinduism asserts "Atman (Soul, Self) exists"
The Animal Soul, is the body of desire, consisting of our appetites, passions, desires, feelings, It is said to be the heaviest, most dangerous and treacherous of the principles. It greatly influences and is influenced by the 5th zone on the vertical. The Human Soul or Manas, which is the seat of the sixth, reason and memory.

The Sixth Principle, called the Spiritual Soul (Buddhi proper) is the Higher or Spiritual Intelligence, or Consciousness, or Spiritual Ego, in which mainly resides the sense of consciousness in the Perfect man.

This principle is the perfect vehicle, within which the seventh principle (the Atma or Spirit) rests.

The Karo fish, seems to me to be the principle of conscious unity, allegorically represented as the fish, that preserves the allegorical tree of long life and immortality by its super-sensitivity.

In the Hari Purana, the God Vishnu is shown as having assumed the form of a fish, with a human head, in order to reclaim the Vedas lost during the deluge.

Vishnu having enabled Manu/Visvamitra to escape the flood with the seven in the ark, pitying weak willed and ignorant humanity, remained with them for some time and gave them instruction. As he was amphibious, i.e. half man and half fish, he returned back to the ocean at every sunset and passed the night there. Sounds like the dark side of the world.

The above narrative seems to be the original of the story given by the Babylonian Berosus about Oannes, the man-fish, no other than Vishnu, the Preserving spirit and the second personage of the Brahmani Trinity. This Deity, having already manifested itself, is still regarded as the future Savior of Humanity and is the selected Redeemer who will appear at its tenth incarnation or avatar, like the Messiah of the Jews, to lead the blessed onward, and to restore to them the primitive Vedas. According to the Secret Doctrine, Messiah is the fifth emanation or potency which will appear to save mankind before the final destruction of the world.

Vishnu was represented, as the tenth avatar, only because every unit was held as an androgyny, thus manifesting itself doubly. The ten Kara fish, five pairs probably represent the five super-senses needed to preserve, protect spiritual supremacy, buoyancy that, from time to time, has manifested itself and will manifest itself in the great teachers of the human races.

From The monastery of Surp Hovaness (Saint John in Armenia), the writer says that the Armenians, who, until the 7th centuries of the Christian era, were Parsees in religion and called themselves Haiks or descendants of their progenitor Haik. In the forgotten traditions of the Armenian people, we find that they remained true to the teachings of Zoroaster. These they had accepted ever since Hovannes/Oannes — the Heavenly or Sun-sent man-fish — arising daily from the sea at sunrise to plunge back into it at sunset — taught the good spiritual doctrine, their arts and civilisation.

If we study the pre-christian traditions of Armenia, which say that Hovhannes made Armenians know the seeds of the earth, taught them to worship their mother Earth, and their father the sun, taught mankind the arts of agriculture, we shall not wonder at discovering that the Chaldean Oannes and Zoroaster are one in their reminiscences. The Chaldean Annedotus was called the "son of the Fish". It was the Hellenized name of their Zoroaster Annedotus, whom the Greeks called Oannes, helping lead the Armenians more easily into accepting Christianity. ICHTHYS.

Vani is a Hindi name for girls meaning Goddess Saraswati; Words coming out from mouth; Language. A reflection on Armenian name Vanik, lake Van.

According to the Aryan doctrine, the Divine but latent thought in Aditi (the boundless) produces the Great Deep or water (primeval chaos) and deposits in it the germ of Universal Life. According to the Bunda-hish, in the midst of the wide-formed ocean, grows the white Hom Tree, that counteracts decrepitude, revives the dead and Immortalizes the living. This essence of life is subjected to the two opposing principles, spirit and soul/matter, which are respectively typified by the buoyant fish. On marriage and other festive occasions, Parsees send presents of fishes as auspicious gifts and the grovelling lizard, fighting for supremacy in the great ocean of the Akasa.

The great spiritual teachers of the world, who have had their spiritual sense thoroughly awakened and made potent, are called the Buddhas, or enlightened ones; and, in reference to the above allegory, they are called, in some traditions, sons of the Fish.

Oannes is the emblem of priestly Esoteric Wisdom, he comes out from the sea, because the Great Deep, the water, typifies also the Secret Doctrine.The Kara fish could be a suggestive allegory for the initiate aspiring to reach the astral 6th zone, or highest Spiritual principle that extends from the 5th, the human soul which ascends from the 4th, the animal soul, to avoid the fascinations of matter the lowest principle. The fish with its gas bladder can lead us all up and on, enabling us to learn to swim in ethereal regions and drink of the juice of the sacred Hom tree (pure spirit) to attain to immortality. Manu to Magi.

LeNormant in his learned work "Chaldean Magic", thus gives the old legend regarding the Fish Avatar.

"There were three zones of the Universe; the heavens, the terrestrial surface with the atmosphere, and the lower abyss. The three greatest Gods, Ana, Hea, and Elim, answered to or presided over these zones.

"The name Hea means 'dwelling'. a place to live in; place of residence; abode; home.This name then was manifestly connected with the time when the God was first imagined to be the same as the zone over which he presided, the zone which served as a home for men and animated beings. Hea afterwards was invoked as the spirit of the terraqueous surface and also as lord of the region of the atmosphere. The spirit of this zone of the Universe, he was also the soul which animated everything, penetrated into everything, and made everything which existed in the Universe live love and move.

The Sumero-Accadians who transmitted this idea to the Chaldaic-Babylonians of more recent ages considered the humid element as the vehicle of all life and the source of all generation. They saw this element.monad circulating everywhere in the zone which embraces the terrestrial surface, the humid atmosphere.

Hea was the spirit and soul of it, and therefore connected with the humid element. The humid element was specially his domain. Water was worshiped in its material reality, and the spirit humidity the life creator presiding over it. He was eternally begotten in the bosom of the humid element; he was said to have issued from the celestial ocean, which was personified as a She. H the aspirate, the breath of life and AYA the Great Grandmother of Primal Armenia spells HAYA , the spirit and soul united on the vertical.

Hea's dwelling was in the great 'reservoir' (Abzu or arra) which surrounded the whole earth on all sides.

From this point but one step is necessary to represent him under the ostensible form of a fish-God, and this step was taken; for one of Hea's most usual titles was 'the great fish', or 'the sublime fish'. Visica Piscis.

"As the spirit and soul of the inhabited world and the soul directing its phenomena, Hea is the repository of all science. And here we have the chain of ideas which led to this odd notion that the learned God should also be an ichthyomorphous [Having the form of a fish] God. This idea passed into the Chaldaic-Babylonian religion with the God Hea himself, and he appeared under this form in the cosmogonic legend, where he was the Oannes of Berosus, revealing religious and social laws to men.

Again, according to extracts from the Grecian historian of Chaldea, 'he had the body of a fish entire, but under his fish's head there was a second human head, while human feet appeared under his tail and he possessed a human voice. This monster spent the whole day among men without taking any food, while he taught them letters, science, and the principles of every art, the rules for the foundation of towns, the building of temples, the measurements and boundaries of lands, seed-time and harvest, in short, all that could advance civilization, so that nothing new has been invented since that period. Then at sunset this great Oannes regained the sea and passed the night in the vast region of waves, for he was amphibious'.


"As the soul of that zone of the world inhabited by living beings, of the 'dwelling' pre-eminently, Hea was the God who 'sees that all is in order', and who defended the frame of nature against the incessant ravages of the wicked spirits. Since he was the God acquainted with science, he knew all their ruses and was able to baffle them; and therefore he alone was possessed of the magic secrets by means of which they could be conquered and repulsed.

"Hence the exceptional importance of the position of Hea in the arts of conjurational magic, of which he was the great God. Hea is the supreme protector of men and nature in the struggle, caused by the antagonism between good and evil, as the annuller and averter of fatal influences, and as the author of theurgic action. Help was sought from him when neither word, rite, talisman, nor even the intervention of any other of the gods had availed to destroy the demon's power".

Numerology information on the name Haig and Haigaz: Name Number of both is 7,  Rest. 

Meanings of the name Haig and Haigaz suggest, Mind, Inner, Thought, Psychology, Secret, Mystic, Strange, Study, Knowledge. The personality is excellent at analyzing, understanding, and learning. They tend to be loners, mystics, philosophers, scholars, and teachers. Because they live so much in the mind, they tend to be quiet and introspective, and are usually introverts. When presented with issues, they will see the larger picture. Their solitary thoughtfulness and analysis of people and world events may make them seem aloof, and sometimes even melancholy. 

In the Bchram and Din Yashts, Zarathustra is said to have been given by these angels, "strength of arms, health of the body and strength of sight as Karo Masyo, the Kar-fish; possesses it, who is under the water, and who is able to see (the minutest things) thin as a hair, a thousand fathoms deep".

There is a continual struggle between the fourth and fifth zones on one side, and the sixth and seventh on the other, and the positive buoyancy, upward progress of the human individuality, is determined by the strength and success of the sixth and seventh principles that have supremacy over the fourth and fifth. It is only the vision of the sixth principle, the Spiritual Soul or Buddhi, that is clear, pellucid, far-reaching and free from all deception.The Hea of the oldest Chaldean legends corresponds with the Oannes of Berosus. He was said to be the repository of all science; He "sees that all is in order", and is the defender against the ravages of the wicked spirits.

Zarathustra, possessing the power of sight imputed to the Kara-fish appears to us therefore as the Great Teacher whose sixth principle had become potent, and who, whenever he had to withstand the opposition of the powers of evil, used to rely upon the deep strength of his spiritual vision which showed him the true path. It is this allusion amongst several others which shows that he was an initiate and an adept of the good Law who spoke not of vain imaginings, but referred to the exact teachings of Archaic science which deals with the invisible forces of the higher intellect and the soul.

In the vast ocean of the Akâsa — the all-pervading ether of modern science — the vision of the physical and mental sight hardly penetrates to any extent, and where in some instances it goes a short way, it is powerless to discriminate between the illusions and the reality, and unless the spiritual light be fully awakened, the explorer in the realms of the invisible forces is liable to fail and fall a prey to the agencies of evil that beset his path at every step.Hmm...

It is this beneficial and protecting power of the vision of the sixth principle or the Spiritual Soul, that has been allegorised as the Kara-fish with penetrating sensitivity and sight.

In the cosmogony of Pherecydes the Gogard or the Hellenic tree of life is the sacred oak, among whose luxurious branches a serpent dwells and cannot be dislodged. The sacred tree of the white Homa, [Same as the Soma] which is said to be the king of all medicinal plants, is no other than the allegorical man-tree, the spiritual germ, which, in its long journey through the succeeding cycles, has to ally itself with the various phases of matter that at each turn darken its glory.

Blavatsky is referring to the actual constellation of Pisces (Latin for fish), as well as to its astrological meaning.
Blavatsky says that The Babylonian system recognized first the ONE (Ad), who is never named but only acknowledged in thought, as the Hindu Swayambhuva. From this he becomes manifest as Anu, the one above all -- Monas. Next comes the Demiurge (the "Builder" or executive Architect of the Universe) called Bel, who is the active power of the Godhead. The third is the principle of wisdom, Hea, who also rules the sea and the underworld. 
Each of these -- Anu, Bel, and Hea --has his divine consort, giving us Anata, Belta, and Davkina. These, however, are only like the Shaktis, the "forces" of Nature. But the female principle is denoted by Mylitta, the Great Mother, called also Ishtar. With the three male gods we have the Triad, or Trimurti. "The fact is, that all the three 'persons' of the Trimurti are simply three qualitative attributes of the universe of differentiated Spirit-Matter; the self-formative, the self-preserving, and the self-destroying, for purposes of regeneration and perfectibility." With Mylitta added to the Trimurti we have the Arba or Four (Tetraktys of Pythagoras), which perfects and potentializes all. Hea was the maker of fate, Lord of the Deep, God of Wisdom and esoteric Knowledge, and Lord of the city (i.e., Mysteries) of Eridu. 
Gods or "Lords" collectively "who bestow Intelligence" are our incarnating Dhyan Chohans, connected as well with the Elohim, and the seven informing gods of Egypt, Chaldea, and every other country. Hea, their synthesis, the god of Wisdom and of the Deep, is identified with Oannes-Dagon, at the time of the fall, and called (collectively) the Demiurge, or Creator.Our races, all cosmogonies show, have sprung from divine races, by whatever name they are called. The Chaldeans had their ten and seven Anedots, which was the generic name for their Dragons of Wisdom. The name of the Dragon in Chaldea was not written phonetically, but was represented by two monograms, probably meaning, according to the Orientalists, "the scaly one." We find the priests assuming the names of the gods they served, the "Dragons" held throughout all antiquity as the symbols of Immortality and Wisdom, of secret Knowledge and of Eternity. The allegory of Oannes, the Anedot, reminds us of the Dragon and Snake-Kings; the Nagas who in Buddhist legends instruct people in wisdom on lakes and rivers, and end by becoming converts to the good Law and Arhats. Musarus Oannes, the Anedot, known in the Chaldean "legend," transmitted through Berosus and other ancient writers as Dagon, the "Man-Fish," came to the early Babylonians as a reformer and an instructor. Appearing from the Erythraean (Red) Sea, he brought them civilization, letters and sciences, law, astronomy, religion, teaching them agriculture, geometry, and the arts in general. There were Anedoti who came after him; but Musarus Oannes was "the first to appear, and this he did in the reign of Ammenon, the third of the ten antediluvian Kings whose (divine) Dynasty ended with Xisuthrus, the Chaldean Noah." The meaning of the allegory is evident. The "fish" is an old and very suggestive symbol of the Mystery-language, as is also "water;" 
Hea was the god of the sea and Wisdom, and the sea serpent was one of his emblems, his priests being "serpents" or Initiates. The hidden meaning becomes clear to the Occultist once he is told that "this being (Oannes) was accustomed to pass the day among men, teaching; and when the sun had set, he retired again into the sea, passing the night in the deep, for he wasamphibios," i.e., he belonged to two planes, the spiritual and the physical. ... Oannes is dimly reflected in Jonah, and even in John the Precursor, both connected with Fish and Water. Layard showed long ago that the "fish's head" was simply a head gear, the mitre worn by priests and gods, made in the form of a fish's head, and which in a very little modified form is what we see even now on the heads of the high Lamas and Romish Bishops. Osiris had such a mitre. The fish's tail is simply the train of a long stiff mantle as depicted on some Assyrian tablets, the form being seen reproduced in the sacerdotal gold cloth garment worn during service by the modern Greek priests.

Again Enki appears as the master of the lower worlds, and also the one who goes under water. In Mésopotamie, they know Enki under the name of Oannès, and the legend says that he had the body covered with scales, that he came up from the debth of the waters to teach men, and that every night, he had to return to the marine depths to sleep and recharge.

The Sumerian god Enki, or Ea, or Hea is the equivalent of the Greek titan Prometheus the geneticist who created men. The prince who has always defended his creatures against the other demigods. The designer who believes in Man. However, Enki was a demi-god who can live in the Underworld called Abzu.

Abzu is represented in Sumerian mythology, as a mythical place, a very real residence of powerful Enki, our creator. Sometimes located at the top of mountains, sometimes in the bottom of seas, Abzu is also the floating and steering wheel palace of the prince Enki. It could be a spaceship, or other technological device.

How barometric pressure influences fish behavior. buoyancy.

Every angler knows that tide, water temperature, light level and moon phase can affect our fishing success, but there's another factor that often goes overlooked. Although barometric pressure can't be predicted as accurately as the other elements just mentioned, it has a major influence on fish behavior. High pressure/low pressure.

More about the prophet Jonah: (Hebrew: יוֹנָה, Modern Yona, Tiberian Yônā; dove; Arabic: يونس‎‎Yūnus, Yūnis or يونان Yūnān ; Latin: Ionas) is the name given in the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh/Old Testament) to a prophet of the northern kingdom of Israel in about the 8th century BC. in the Quran, He is described as being active during the reign of the second King Jeroboam (c.786–746 BC), its a good start, for He was big on PISCIS. He is the eponymous central figure in the Book of Jonah, famous for being swallowed by the Big Fish.

Jonah in a dream appears to be reliving the 'miraculous' power of the Visca Piscis saved by being swallowed by the GREAT FISH, (CETUS) At some point cetus became synonymous with "whale" (the study of whales is now called cetology). In his 1534 translation, William Tyndale translated the phrase in Jonah 2:1 as "greate fyshe" and the word kétos (Greek) or cetus (Latin) in Matthew 12:40 as "whale".

In whose belly/air bladder Jonah spent three days and three nights. While in the great fish, Jonah prays to God and commits to the path of thanksgiving and to sacrifice what he had originally vowed. God commands the great fish to spew Jonah up and out.

Biblical scholars have speculated that the Jonah story is inspired by Oanne, Hovhannas in Armenian.

There is no doubt in my mind that all references, stories, myths, iconography regarding the Viscus Piscis symbol are directly connected to Vishnu;s avatar. Manu still rules it seems.

The deity name "Oannes" first occurs in texts from the Library of Ashurbanipal (more than a century after the time of Jonah) as Uanna or Uan, a deity first mentioned on fragments of tablets from the 15th or 14th century BC found in Amarna in Egypt.

Oannes is described as dwelling in the Persian Gulf, and rising out of the waters in the daytime and furnishing humanity instruction in writing, the arts and the various sciences. Berossus describes Oannes as having the body of a fish but underneath was the figure of a man.

Nineteenth-century Irish amateur scholar William Betham speculates that the worship of Oannes is the origin of the cult of the Roman god Janus.

Finally before I publish I refer to the Gospel of Matthew, where Jesus makes a telling reference to Oannes, when he is asked to show a sign by the Pharisees and teachers of the Law. Jesus says that the sign will be the sign of Jonah. Thus Jesus seems to imply that Jonah's restoration after three days inside the great fish prefigures His own resurrection.

Jesus answered is sublime "A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a great fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now something greater than Jonah is here."

— Gospel of Matthew 12:39-41 (New International Version [NIV] ed.).

 

Jonah is regarded as a saint by a number of Christian denominations. He is commemorated as a prophet in the Calendar of Saints of the Missouri Synod of the Lutheran Church on September 22. On the Eastern Orthodox liturgical calendar his feast day is also September 22 (for those churches which follow the traditional Julian calendar; September 22 currently falls in October on the modern Gregorian calendar).

In the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Book of Jonah is chanted in its entirety at the Divine Liturgy on Holy Saturday before Pascha. He is commemorated as one of the Twelve Minor Prophets in the Calendar of saints of the Armenian Apostolic Church on July 31. Jonah's mission to the Ninevites is commemorated by the Fast of Nineveh in Syriac and Oriental Orthodox Churches.

A great fish did indeed swallow Jonah. A special creation a fish primarily a symbol of the savior, from the waters of chaos, God accomplished the act by the wind in the element of air and the breath of life. It is obvious the story is an allegory, the fish is a literary device in the story, the story is Jonahs dream, a vision. Yom Kippur – the Day of Atonement, as the Haftarah at the afternoon mincha prayer.

It was Jerome who introduced the idea of piscem grandem in his Latin Vulgate.

The fish connects us with the very best of reasons for using philosophical toys to teach.

The Cartesian Diver is named after a great philosopher because it makes us think about how and offers explanations and evidence about weight, pressure, movement of matter, the relationship between air and water, the forces of gravity verses buoyancy, floating or sinking, the atmospheric pressure.

Teach fish how to swim is an idiomatic expression derived from the latin proverb piscem natare doces. The phrase focuses attention on the self-sufficient perception — piscem nature doces (teach fish how to swim). Formerly used on works of art, next to the artist's name. piscem natare doces [you] teach a fish to swim latin proverb, attributed by erasmus

The visica pisces is the center shape created by overlapping two circles. The curved lines of the inner arc of the circles cross at the center of one another forming what is termed a mandala at the center. It is very much similar to an egg shape; in fact, an egg shape can be created from the visica pisces, as can all the archimedian and platonic solids be created within the shape. It is termed by the classical Greeks as the womb of geometry or the womb of numbers. 

The Carotid Gland

In the esoteric traditions the carotid gland is known as the ‘alta major:’however, apart from the work of the medium and esoteric writer, Alice Bailey, the carotid gland is hardly ever mentioned in “new-age” literature, so why would this gland be important?
Well control over one’s breathing is necessary for yoga and meditation and the carotid gland is associated with the respiratory system – i.e., breathing, and maintains homeostatic control over the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. The duality inherent in the cycles of opposites is again evident here in the inhalation of oxygen and the exhalation of carbon dioxide – which this gland controls.

Figure 4: Location of Carotid Gland in the neck

So then to recap, we have seen that the three glands just described are associated with homeostatic control over the cycles of opposites associated with one’s immersion in the material world and one’s ‘material existence’ – just like a ‘diving suit’ – and in the following ways:

Pineal: The day/night cycles also related to the waking/sleeping cycle.

Pituitary and Hypothalamus: Regulates body temperature – keeping a homeostatic balance between the extremes of hot and cold.
These also regulate the growth of the individual – i.e., keeping a relative balance between large and small and short and tall.

Carotid: The inhalation/exhalation, breathing cycles and levels of oxygen (in-breath) and carbon dioxide (out-breath) in the blood.

Although not proven, apart from one’s own experience of it, it is said that when all three are in balance – and especially the pineal and pituitary glands – a synchronized or quantum state is created within the brain, and this synchronization takes place within the thalamus and is again experienced as the ‘hypnagogic state.’
