You will recall that the most common way to depict the planets is with concentric circles. Notice that the Coperican system just switched the places of the sun and the earth in Ptolemy's system. We use this same image to depict latitude lines as seen from the poles.



Of the numbers 1-10, all of them but 7 divide evenly into 360.While long and lat lines are grouped in 10's and 60's, geodetic centers were placed on multiples of 7. If we divide ninety by seven, we find that Thebes (Luxor) was located at 2 times that number of latitude, that Delphi was located at 3 times that, and that Greenwich is located at 4 times that number. The Delphi line is 38 27 north latitude (38.5). Jefferson Monticello is at 38 north and the top point of the District of Columbia is at 39 north. They straddle the Delphi line.



We have solar calendars, and lunar calendars and a weekly calendar of seven days that does not fit any natural cycle, but appears to have another logical base. Note that the days are associated with a planetary sphere beginning with Saturn, of course. Here we see how the days progress a round a heptagon. Below we see how the numbers of those correlate to the Tree of Life numbers.

"You will recall that the most common way to depict the planets is with concentric circles." Maybe. But it's an incorrect way.

"Notice that the Coperican system just switched the places of the sun and the earth in Ptolemy's system." This statement is absolutely not true.

"We use this same image to depict latitude lines as seen from the poles." We don't use this image to do that.

Latitude lines are not seen from the poles or from anywhere. They are imaginary, conceptual lines.

Okay, I am not really that much interested any more, with the above in mind, where you go with this.
