Gonggong, Chinese mythology for the object (225088) 2007 OR10

On February 5, 2020, the scattered disc object (225088) 2007 OR10 was oficially named (225088) Gonggong.


"Gonggong is a Chinese water god with red hair and a serpent-like tail. He is known for creating chaos, causing flooding, and tilting the Earth; he is often depicted with the head of a human and the body of a snake. Gonggong is often attended by his minister, Xiangliu, a nine-headed poisonous snake monster for whom the satellite is named." (MPC 121135)


Gong Gong traveled along the waterways, giving names to the rivers and conducting hydrological studies. During the time of the mythological emperor Shun, Gong Gong tamed the overflows that threatened to flood the kingdom.


On one occasion, Gong Gong fought against Zhuan Xu for the throne of the empire. His battle was so fierce that the entire universe lost its balance; reason why all the rivers flow to the east.


Xiang Liu was a minister of Gong Gong, who also participated in the fight between the line of the Red Emperor and that of the Yellow Emperor.

 
According to some ancient texts, Gong Gong was one of the Three Sovereigns, wich, together with the Five Emperors, constituted the mythological rulers of China before the first Xia dynasty. Traditionally they were credited with the foundation of Chinese civilization and the invention of social, cultural and economic institutions. 


(225088) Gonggong is a scattered disc object with high aphelion (social intelligence), in 3:10 resonance with Neptune.

The moon of (225088) 2007 OR10 [Gonggong], bifurcation during the understanding of something

A Moon of (225088) 2007 OR10 [Gonggong], of about 300 km, was discovered in September of 2010 and was announced in October of 2016.

Initially, (225088) 2007 OR10 [Gonggong] was nicknamed 'Snow White', because it was thought to be very bright white, but then it was discovered that it was actually bright red. This type of bifurcation during the understanding of something, is typical of the quality of the number "10" applied to the resonance with Neptune, like in the movie "Unstoppable" (2010).

"Unstoppable" (2010)

Its discoverers (Megan Schwamb, Mike Brown and David Rabinowitz) have reserved the right to choose an official name until November 2019, when it will become 10 years since it received its permanent number.

Unlike classical Kuiper belt objects --which receive mythological names related with creation-- to choose a name for 2007 OR10 [Gonggong], the pattern initiated with Eris, wich is based on the social intelligence of the mythological character, should be used.

(136108) Haumea, emotional awareness geared toward processes of collective interaction

(136108) Haumea is a scattered disc object discovered in March of 2003. There are prediscovery images back to May-April of 2002, February of 1999, April of 1998, May of 1996, February of 1995, March of 1994, April of 1991, January of 1991 and March of 1955. It reached the perihelion in December of 1848. It was oficially named in September of 2008.

The orbit is between Neptune-Kuiper belt and the beginning of the scattered disc. It has a perihelion of 35.10 AU and an aphelion of 51.51 AU. The semimajor axis is at 43.30 AU. It has an orbital period of 285 years. It has an inclination of  28.1º. It has a diameter of about 1450 km.


In November of 2005, two moon of (136108) Haumea were announced: Hi’iaka, with a diameter of about 320 km, discovered in January of 2005; and Namaka, with a diameter of about 160 km, discovered in June of 2005. In the year 1999, there was an occultation between Haumea and one of its moons (similar to that of Pluto and Charon in the '80s).

Orbital resonance:
11:19 with Neptune (99.8%)
 

(136108) Haumea is the central object in a cloud of Kuiper belt objects that are the pieces of it after a big collision (1995 SM55, 1996 TO66, 2002 TX300, 2003 OP32, 2005 RR43...). This astronomical quality gived her mythological name.

Due to the impact that suffered (136108) Haumea during the collision, its rotating period is only 3.9 hours. The rotation is so fast, that its spherical shape ended up being distorted in an ellipsoid of dimensions 1960 km × 1518 km × 996 km.


 
Hawaiian mythology

Haumea was the goddess of childbirth and fertility. She took many different forms and has experienced many different rebirths. Haumea was the mother of many other deities in Hawaiian mythology who are pieces pulled off of her body.

The "fertility" concept, when applied to (136108) Haumea, means that some paths are easier to walk that others. It depends on how the collective or group forces are acting, mythologically represented by the deities that are part of herself.

In the movie "The Beach" (1999), the community keeps the secret of the place, to avoid massive tourist to came.

The people in our life, environment, society or world around, (1) do not know where we are and what are we doing or can be indifferent to us, in both cases they leave us to move with out interferences; (2) can be against us, making our moves full of obstacles; or (3) can be in the same direction and with the same motives as us, making easier the way.

"In 1993, the then minister of sciences William Waldegrave offer a bottle of champain to anyone who can explain the Higgs Bosson in simple terms. David Miler of University College London came up with one of the wining explanations. It went something like this: "This students from the university of Liverpool, they represent each particles, that represent every corner of the universe. [1] If a popular lecturer walks through the students, they crowd around so as they profound and intelligent questions, this has the effect of slowing him down, he has a quite mass. [2] If a lecturer with exams results walks through, she is going to be absolutely surrounding by students, as they claim for the results, poor path through be very slow, she has a lot of mass. [3] But if an unpopular lecturer were to walk to the crowd, they were ignore her, she will be a mass less particle, like a photon, that can travel unimpeded through the universe at the speed of light. In other words, a fundamental particle gets its mass by interacting with Higgs particles, and massed objects have the strongest interactions."  


In the video games "Metal Gear Solid" (PSX, 1998), "Metal Gear Solid 2: Soons of Liberty" (PS2, 2002) and "Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater" (PS2, 2004), Snake, controlled by the player, must move undetected through a hostile, enemy-filled environment. Although Snake acquires various weapons, the emphasis is on using stealth to avoid confrontations, since if a guard discovers Snake, will raise the alarm and the rest of guards will turn up, making impossible to pass through.   


The emotional awareness of (136108) Haumea is geared toward processes of collective interaction, whose elements may be scattered or aligned in a certain direction, but always connected to each other (11:19 resonance with Neptune). At the end of the movie "The Recruit" (2003) there is a amazing twist of this collective forces.


(136108) Haumea has a deep comprehension of which and where are the collective forces, and knows how has to proceed in every situation.

"Assassin's Creed" (PS3, 2007) 

Living according to the spiritual laws is the only way of having peace with others and that is the necessary condition to get the inside peace of oneself.

(148780) Altjira, fixed points in the timeline

(148780) Altjira is a classical Kuiper belt binary object discovered in October of 2001 and named in August of 2008. It has a perihelion of 41.3 AU and an aphelion of 46.9 AU.  It has a diameter of about 340 km. It has an inclination of 5.2º.

A moon of (148780) Altjira was discovered in March of 2007, with a diameter of about 250 km.


Australian Aboriginal mythology

Altjira is the sky god in Australian Aboriginal mythology. He was the central god of the Dream time. Altjira created the Earth and then retired to the sky. He is depicted as having an emu's feet.


"Dreaming" is also often used to refer to an individual's or group's set of beliefs or spirituality.

"Aboriginals believe in two forms of time; two parallel streams of activity. One is the daily objective activity, the other is an infinite spiritual cycle called the 'dreamtime', more real than reality itself. Whatever happens in the dreamtime establishes the values, symbols, and laws of Aboriginal society. It was believed that some people of unusual spiritual powers had contact with the dreamtime." (Wikipedia: Dreamtime)


Points of singularity in the timeline

The notion and understanding of (148780) Altjira looks towards to unchangeable and fixed points in the timeline, like astrological configurations, climatic, meteorologic and geological accidents, collective events, for example, the discovery of an astronomical object, that mark a before and after in the collective consciousness.

(148780)
Altjira has the ability to understand the abstract language of astrology, prophecy and mythology, like in the movie "10
.000" (2008), "The Mothman Prophecies" (2002), "Joseph: King of Dreams" (2000), the PS3 video game "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune" (2007), or "Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark" (1981).

C. G. Jung has the Axis of the Crossing Points of the Age Progressions (Moon Node Horoscope / Basis Horoscope) in trine/sextile with Uni in Sagittarius, and in square with Asbolus in Cancer. Altjira in Sagittarius is conjunct Uni and in trine with the Sun in Leo.

(48639) 1995 TL8, common sense while reasoning

(48639) 1995 TL8 is a scattered disc object discovered in October of 1995. It has a perihelion of 40.0 AU and an aphelion of 65.1 AU (scattered disc object with low aphelion). It has an inclination of 0.2º. It has a diameter of about 350 km.

In November of 2002, a moon was discovered, with a diameter of about 165 km.

In 1995, Daniel Goleman published the book "Emotional Intelligence".
(48639) 1995 TL8 has a skilled common sense while reasoning, like Togusa in the movie "Ghost in the Shell" (1995) and the TV anime "Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex" (2002), or the detective Conan in the Japanese manga-anime "Case Closed [Detective Conan]" (1994,1996). The main theme of the movie "Crimson Tide" (1995) is also common sense.

(58534) Logos, emotional consciousness geared towards interesting rational approaches

(58534) Logos is a Kuiper belt object discovered in February of 1997 and named in June of 2006. It has a perihelion of 39.9 AU and an aphelion of 50.8 AU. It has an inclination of 2.9º.

 In Autumn of 2001 it was discovered that (58534) Logos had a binary companion (named Zoe). It is a system of nearly equal-sized bodies, with diameters of about 80 km and 66 km.

'Logos' is the Greek word for 'word' or 'reason' and 'zoe' is the Greek word for 'life'. The sophists used the term 'logos' to mean discourse, and Aristotle applied the term to 'rational discourse'.

The emotional consciousness of (58534) Logos is geared towards interesting rational approaches.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (2002)

In the movie "Rear Window" (Alfred Hitchcock, 1954), a photographer is recuperating from a broken leg. He passes the time by spying on his neighbours through his apartment's rear window and comments the social aspects of what he sees with his girlfriend and a home care nurse that came every day to his house. This movie had a remake in 1998, a few moths after the discovery of Logos ("Disturbia" is a most recent remake).

"The Peacemaker" (1997)

By the time of the discovery of Zoe, appeared the movie "K-Pax" (2001), in which there is a man that claims to come from a planet called K-Pax. His psychiatrist and a group of astronomer discourse about this incredible man. 

Just after (58534) Logos was named (June 2006), astronomer concluded the debate about "planet" definition.

(136199) Eris, self-knowledge that allows to make the right choice

(136199) Eris is a scattered disc dwarf planet discovered in October of 2003 and named in September of 2006. It has a diameter of aboout 2400 km (as big as Pluto). It has a perihelion of 37.8 AU and an aphelion of 97.6 AU (scattered disc object with high aphelion). There are prediscovery images back to September of 2003, December-August of 2001, December of 2000, November of 1997, October and August of 1995, December of 1994, November of 1993, November of 1990, September of 1989, September of 1982 and Semptember of 1954. It has an inclination of 43.9º.

(136199) Eris has a moon, with a diameter of about 400 km, discovered in 2005. It is named Dysnomia.

Orbital resonance:
4:9 with Pluto (99.9%)

3:20 with Uranus (99.4%)
5:17 with Neptune (99.4%)




If Athenea is the goddess of wisdom and military strategy and Hera is the goddess of marriage, why they claimed Eris apple "for the most beautiful one"?

We all know that Aphrodite is the goddess of love and beauty!!!

At the beginning of the movie "Sinbad: the Legend of the Seven Seas" (2003), Eris is in the out space with the Earth globe in her hands watching it: "It's a brand new day and the mortal world is at peace. But not for long. Just look at them. I pull one tiny thread, and their whole world unravels into chaos. Glorious chaos." 

As always that things are not going in the right direction, when Eris sees that Sinbad is going to stole the big treasure and retire to Fiji (a tropical place with beach girls), and on the other hand, Marina is going to marry Proteus and take responsibilities in Syracuse, she gets so excited and quickly cames into play creating chaos and discord, of course pretending to correct the situation

When (136199) Eris is activated by the Age Point or by transit, the main theme that points, is to find who we really are and who we could be, because that is the necessary condition for having a deep motivation in life and experience a strong flow in what we are doing. The movie "In Good Company" (2005), shows how important is to self-rate correctly in the business world.

This self-knowledge can be used to set our life on the right path if we took the wrong road before (4:9 resonance with Pluto), like in the books "The Ugly Duckling" (1844) or "The Jungle Book" (1884, 1907). This ability can also by applied to others, like when astronomers reclassified Pluto as a dwarf planet. 

In the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" (2003), the social intelligence of (136199) Eris allows the Captain Jack Sparrow to solve the situation by using the knowledge of the true origin of Will Tarner and Elizabeth Swann.

(134340) Pluto, individual evolution toward complexity

Transformation comes, like death, in its own time.
And, like death, it takes you from one dimension into another.
(Osho-Zen Tarot) 

(134340) Pluto is a Kuiper belt object discovered in February of 1930. It has a perihelion of 29.7 AU and an aphelion of 49.3 AU. It has a diameter of about 2300 km. There are prediscovery images back to January of 1927, December of 1925, January of 1921, December of 1919, April and March of 1915, and November and January of 1914. It was observed in the years 1965, 1985, 1988 and 1990. It has an inclination of 17.2º.

The moon Charon was discovered i
n June of 1978 (1200 km). Two smaller moons, Nix (60 km) and Hydra (75 km), were both discovered in 2005. Some astronomer call it "dwarf double planet" (Pluto-Charon). Eris (2600 km) is a bit larger than Pluto (2300 km), but from an astrological point of view, this binary system is very important, because Pluto is always conjunct Charon (1200 km).


(134340) Pluto aspire to perfection like in the movies "King Kong" (1933, 2005) and "Superman" (comic 1932; movie 1978). Is concerned with evolution by eliminating the low aspects of personality and developing the high ones, from complex emotional interactions, quite turbulent, which are not always visible from the outside.

The end result is a maturation process, like in the video game "Brave: The Search for Spirit Dancer" (PS2, 2005) or the characters of the TV manga series "Dragon Ball" (1986). 

After (134340) Pluto's transformation, personality is more complex: more differentiated, but at the same time more integrated.
