Today, I was walking home from the store when I saw The Rod of Caduceus (Not Asclepius). Two snakes and The Winged Sun.
That is The first Symbol of these three. These symbols are *not* new. They are OLD. In fact, they are the only Symbol in all of time that has made it through ALL of Humanity. This is that Story.
The Snakes belong to The Mesopotamian God of the Underworld, Nin—- Who loved Snakes and whos Snake was his… The Dragon, the Snake, The Serpent… 6,000 BCE… This is the Origin of The Snake and Medicine. A symbol that was passed on to Eve in the Garden. This was his Snake.
The next Symbol that predates that is The Zoroastrian Symbol, which is of Zoroaster placed within The Winged Sun.
It is four hours later. I’m researching Babylon, the City of Marduk and Assur, the City of Ashur, when I find The Symbol of Ashur from 2,200 BCE. It is The Winged Sun with Ashur (Not Zoroaster) in front of The Winged Sun.
Symbol of Ashur, the ancient Assyrian national deity
But the Rod of Cadeceus… That goes back to 4,000 BCE. It is still in use to this day and it means, quite simply “Do No Harm.”
The Common Denominator of Zoroaster, Caduceus, and Asha — “Do no harm.”
The Assur Kings were Shepherds. Not Gods. They Nourished and Guided the People.
