This blog here will talk about the citizens who live in the Alpha Aries (Hamal) region in our galaxy as well as their Solar System. All info comes from Sheldan Nidle's book Your Galactic Neighbors.
Present Status And Location
The Star Nation of Alpha Aries (Hamal) was first accepted into the Galactic Federation Of Light 2.13 million years ago. Originally, Hamal had been part of a series of strategically positioned defence colonies, settled 2.5 million years ago by Galactic Federation Of Light Human colonists from the Andromedan Confederacy and Human Star Nations located in the constellation of Lyra. The star Hamal in Arabic means 'Head of the Sheep' Her people call Hamal 'Japos Da'La which means Being Of Joyous Light. She is the brightest star in Aries, and is located 66 light years from Earth. The constellation of Aries appears in our night sky as a far flung region consisting mostly of larger magnitude stars. She is positioned between the constellations of Andromeda and Pisces and just above that of Pegasus. The easiest way to find Hamal is to look for a triangle in the head of the ram that is located just below Andromeda. This triangle consists of Hamal and two other major stars, which form the ram's horns. These stars are Beta Aries or Sheratan, and Gamma Aries or Mesarthim.
Alpha Aries Solar System And Description Of Home Worlds
The Solar System of Alpha Aries contains eight planets. The outer three are huge gas giants, similar in size and appearance to our planets Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. In the center of this Solar System are two semi arid worlds, each one quarter the size of Neptune and Uranus, and about 7,400 miles in diameter. Next closer to their sun is the planet that serves as the home world for the Alpha Aries Star Nation. Her people call this planet 'Joo'Doo, and she is the third planet from Japos Da'La. At first glance from space, the planet of 'Joo'Doo looks just like our planet. This planet is very close to our planet in size at 7,000 miles. Unlike Earth though she contains only three large continents which are surrounded by five deep oceans and a three tiered firmament that supports an ecosystem famous, like that of our planet, for her wide variety of life forms. The climate of Joo'Doo' is semi tropical, and cooler only at each pole. Like all planets ,Joo'Doo' is hollow, enclosing an inner world populated by creatures that, even to this ecosystem, are highly unusual. Alpha Aries inhabitants, who number 700 million, live in special crystal cities scattered across her inner realm. The hybrid Human (Dinosaurian/Human) species, in particular, prefers to be the primary guardian for Japos Da'La's two semi arid planets. They feel more at home in these planets' extremely hot, dry environments. There, it is much easier for them to share their sacred planet keeping rituals with their Human counterparts. For the most part, they perform these rituals in large, desert temples located near small, sacred, surface settlements. The two innermost planets are small and barren, and possess exceedingly thin atmospheres. The outer world is less than 3,000 miles in diameter. The inner is called 'Ja'Lut', which means most joyous. Because Ja'Lut's atmosphere is frequently lit by her sun's solar flares, she seems to be a world aglow. Both planets are known for their unusually erratic orbits.
Origins Of Alpha Aries Society
The ancestors of the people of Alpha Aries came from the Andromedan and Lyran constellations. The people of Japos Da'La, while sharing the same basic perspectives on the formation of their Galactic society as the Humans from Epsilon Eridani, had very different cultural priorities. Instead, they saw themselves primarily as artistic beings, the choosen creators of what they refered to as 'living art'. On Joo'Doo, the people established a society that was meant to function as the embodiment of art on a grand scale. The Alpha Arians discerned that art comprised subjects of taste, style, and imagination, and included sculpture, painting, literature, dance, and drama. Their unique Galactic society, therfore, emphasizes these many different aspects of their culture. To the peoples of Japos Da'La, art is, in fact, the highest living expression of being Human, and a way to honor the Creator's greatest gifts - the soul and the physical universe to which we all belong. Thus, the Galactic Human society inhabiting Alpha Aries is totally unique. It almost resembles a living theatre, filled with dynamic, ever-changing living art. The people of Japos Da'La perceive their Galactic society in this way, as a vibrant work of art composed of many equally superb pieces. In this wonderful, richly creative environment, each citizen is capable of using a special technique of artistic creation. The people of Alpha Aries call this creative process their 'living logic'. Our astronomers classify their star - Alpha Aries - as the primary star in the Aries constellation. The peoples of Japos Da'La see themselves in that way, and they are content.
Galactic Society Of Japos Da'La (Alpha Aries)
The people of Alpha Aries created their own unique, nine-clan Galactic society. This modified model was in keeping with the original six tribes that, in the traditional Lyran/Sirian model, are called the Spiritual Warrior, Administration, Science, Science Engineering, Life Sciences, and Life Sciences Engineering clans. In a departure from this classic Lyran/Sirian example, the people of Japos Da'La added three more groups. According to the model derived from the people of Jadok-san (Epsilon Eridani), the first clan deals with the concepts of creating cultural unity within a multiculturally diverse society. This 'Cultural History' clan is a modification of the cultural tradition and history families that are part of the 12-clan Andromedan model. The second clan, unique to the Epsilon Eridani 8-clan prototype, is known as the Spiritual Heart Logic ('Baruk') clan.This group develops techniques that allow various tasks to be carried out holistically. That is, this second clan's most crucial task is to preside over the development and use of 'the spiritual logic of the heart.' To the adaptations made by the peoples of Jadok-san, the Galactic society of Alpha Aries added a third clan. It consists of teachers and counselors who provide instruction in their society's core value - living art - or, in their language, 'gratosh zawaba'. Following the classic model, each of these clans forms its own main clan governing council, which, in turn, sends representatives to Alpha Aries' main governing council. Here, we notice yet another point of contrast in the people of Japos Da'La. Whenever this governing council is in session, distinguished liasons from the Spiritual Heart Logic and Living Art clans act as special presiding referees, assisting members of the main governing council in solving problems or difficulties as they arise. Clearly, both the Alpha Aries and Epsilon Eridani peoples have found a way to incorporate dissimilar components from the Lyran/Sirian and Andromedan models. This ingenious aptitude has brought them acclaim throughout the Milky Way Galaxy. In effect, the people of Epsilon Eridani and Alpha Aries have applied Andromeda's talent of creating unity out of diversity, and combined it with two invaluable attributes of their Lyran ancestors - an immense spiritual capacity and a deeply communal, yet personal, sense of spiritual to the Great Blue Lodge of Creation. And, by applying the Epsilon Eridani spiritual to their art, they have also fashioned an enlightened society celebrated for its creativity and its ability to present the nuances of any subject in an extraordinarily joyful way. For this and other reasons, the Alpha Aries people are famous, galaxy-wide, for what they refer to as 'living art' - for applying intuitive logic to the arts, and for using that reasoning to create a specific situation and represent it in a positive way so that everyone will fully grasp its nuances. The Alpha Aries people are hailed as exceptionally gifted artisans and logicians, a quality this society deems its greatest achievement. Often, the living artists of Alpha Aries are called upon to put this 'living art' to use in other sectors of the Galactic Federation Of Light. Throughout the galaxy, Galactic Human societies applaud the prodigious talents of the people of Japos Da'La, and appeal to them whenever neccessary.
Description Of Inhabitants
On Alpha Aries (Hamal) there are two major species of Human. The first group resembles the original Lyran/Sirian and Andromedan Human colonist. Male physiques vary from perfectly formed and muscular to a rare, child like body type. In height, males range from 6 feet, 6 inches to 7 feet, 4 inches. Japos Da'La women are extremely curvaceous and stand between 6 feet, 2 inches and 6 feet, 8 inches tall. Their hair varies from blond to light brown, and their eyes from pale blue to navy or dark green. Their skin comes in many colors: red, orange, green, ivory, or light blue. The second, a Human hybrid, sprang about two million years ago from the union of Dinosaurians and Humans. A series of large scale attacks by Dinosaurian forces from the constellation of Orion resulted in the capture of several fleets of Andromedan colonists. After the Anchara Alliance forces from the Star-Nation of Bellatrix had carried out experiments on the colonists, they freed the Andromedan fleets, which continued on to Alpha Aries. There, the Dinosaurian/Human hybrids were honored as full fledged members of the Alpha Aries Star Nation. The hybrid Hamalan has scaly skin and unmistakably cat-like eyes of red, brown or lemon yellow. The body, legs, neck, and arms are more muscular than those of a Human, and a number of thick, vein-like swellings run their length. Each hand and foot has 3 long, thin digits that end in a small claw. Males stand between 7 and 8 feet tall, while females range from 6 feet, 10 inches to 7 feet, 7 inches in height. Neither species requires more than three hours of sleep. The costumes of the Alpha Aries people are most unusual. Unlike the filmy, flowing, short and ankle-length gowns adorned with the ribbons and insignia of their Lyran/Sirian or Andromedan ancestors, the people of Japos'Da'La have chosen far different apparel. The traditional Alpha Aries outfits consist of a billowing, ankle-length skirt in a bright color that identifies one's clan. Sheer outer blouses, either waist-length or ending just above the knee, feature an open shoulder, usually on the left. Special graphic designs on the blouse indicate individual rank and honors or achievements. The Alpha Aries outfit worn on Galactic Federation Of Light spacecraft is a two-piece jumpsuit, much like their traditional costume. The pants are relaxed in fit, and the shirt extends just below the waist. This jumpsuit bear the clan color codes, as well as special graphics to denote rank and official honors. Boots are integral to the costume; they merge into the pants and appear as a continuous unit. All personnel of Star-Nations belonging to the Galactic Federation Of Light are required to wear their official uniforms while on call and, especially, while on duty. In all other cases, they are permitted to wear their official uniforms while on call and, especially, while on duty. In all other cases, they are permitted to wear the clothes of their distinctive cultures. The people of Japos'Da'La are known throughout the Galactic Federation Of Light for their expertise as artists, innovators, and scientists. There are two spoken languages. The Human language is gentle and melodious, while the Hybrid language tends to be more guttural and coarse.
Ships Of Alpha Aries (Hamal)
Two types of Alpha Aries ships are part of the first contact fleet that monitors our planet each day. The first is a low orbit upper atmosphere command mothership. At 10,000 feet (slightly over 3.0 kilometers) long, it is small, and shaped like a double lens. It serves as the carrier for 2,000 science liason officers who coordinate the preliminary analysis of data from the sector quadrant to which this mothership is assigned. The second type, a special defence observation craft, resembles a rounded equilateral triangle with three equal sides, each approximately 240 feet long. This ship monitors black operation bases belonging to the secret government. Occasionally, it takes part in special operations to neutralize or shut down special craft or exotic weaponry when they are deployed from secret government bases.
