Next up on the Galactic Blogs are the Centaurians who just like the Andromedans, Pegasians, and Plejaren have great scientists, technicians, and liaisons. Unofficially they are described as the Galactic Federation Of Light's principal diplomatic liaisons and ambassadors. All info is from Sheldan Nidle's book Your Galactic Neighbors.
Location And Status
The Great Star Union Of Centaurus, previously a neutral Star League, had been a major arena in many battles of the Galactic Wars. Nevertheless, she had developed a series of distinctly different Galactic Societies, which she learned to use to use to her advantage. Centaurus also had a long history of temporary collaborations with dark empires of the Anchara Alliance. Owing to her proximity to the headquarters section of the Galactic Federation Of Light, Centaurus has been a valued and enduring partner in the current diplomatic and cultural exchanges between the former dark empires of the Anchara Alliance and the Galactic Federation Of Light. The Great Star Union Of Centaurus, which comprises hundreds of Star-Nations, is located in the constellation of Centaurus, between those of Lupus and Vela in the Southern Hemisphere. It is best known for its brightest star, the triple Star System Alpha Centauri (also called Rigel Kentaurus). One of those triple stars, Proxima Centauri, 4.3 Light Years from our planet, is our closest known star: its other members are as far as 1,000 Light Years away. The Great Star Union Of Centaurus was accepted into the Galactic Federation Of Light 1.1 million years ago.
Centauri Cultural Nuances
Galactic Societies in the Great Star Union Of Centaurus more closely resemble those of the Aldebarans and Altairians than the Lyran/Sirian or Andromedan/Pleiadean models. The significance of the Centaurus system is that it encompasses both Human and Reptilian Star-Nations. From two societies has evolved one slightly hierarchical system, which combines the best of the other dual-clan structures. This diversity has brought together two very different civilizations - Human and Dinosaurian/Reptilian - each living in harmony, attaining their societal potentials and, thus, manifesting their the sacred prime mission of the Galactic Federation Of Light. Although the clan structures of the Great Star Union Of Centaurus differ widely from one sector to another, the most common are variations of the Lyran/Sirian (six clans) and the Andromedan/Pleiadean (twelve clans) models. The Centauri melding of these prototypes into its own exclusive hierarchical system is unique, given that the majority of Centauri Galactic Societies contain subcultures that have retained their own distinctive language and traditions. Crucial to this system are their cultural liaisons and counselors. While Star-Nations such as Lambda Centauri use a Lyran/Sirian model, each of the Centauri's two inhabited home worlds contains a rich layer of unique subcultures. Each planet has cultural liaisons who function as semi-official interpreters for the totality of cultures that exist on that world. Moreover, a special interworld cultural liaison board provides creative solutions for any problems that may arise. When this system is interfaced with advanced translator technology and its inhabitants' own natural telepathic abilities, it allows free communication between individuals and groups. What results is a constant flow of information that makes positive use of any differences and allows this multi-faceted society to create many revolutionary innovations on a regular basis. Yet another way of achieving this lies in the stars that make up Rigel Kentaurus. Their home worlds have adopted the Andromedan/Pleiadean model, which uses 12 clans instead of the Lyran six. This model contains clans devoted to counceling and liaison, and to culture. These three clans developed because the Centauri found it easier to maintain separate systems in which to train students in these meaningful pursuits. Each clan serves as a repository of specific wisdoms. The other nine clans can avail themselves of these areas of expertise, or, if they are unable to solve a particular problem, they can consult the one clan of three that seems most capable of solving it. By embracing the 12-clan system, Rigel Kentaurus can be perceived as a Star-Nation containing many of the acclaimed scientific research groups in the galaxy. Rigel's reputation is due, mainly, to the extent to which its modified 12-clan system formally addresses its population's wide-ranging diversity. Consequently, this modified system has been dispersed throughout the Great Star Union Of Centaurus.
Centaurian Solar Systems And Description Of Some Of Their Home Worlds
The home worlds of the Centauri range from water worlds similar to our planet to semi-arid realms. Those that are going to be talked about are in the multiple stars of Proxima Centari and the star, Lambda Centauri. These Star-Nations are located between 4.39 and 410 Light Years from our planet.
The Home Worlds Of Proxima Centauri
First up will be the home worlds of Proxima Centauri. The first area in the Proxima Centauri region to be talked about is in the Rigel Kentaurus region. First colonized by Humans nearly 2.5 million years ago, she contains one of the larger Centaurian water worlds, which her people refer to as Endo. Endo is one of three planets orbiting the central star of Prima Centauri. She is recognized for her immense oceans, teeming with life, and her beautiful skies, dazzling with nightglow. This glow is caused by the outermost layer of the three layer firmament, which becomes electrified from the coronal discharges from her sun. They fill Endo's night sky with a soft, pastel glow that encompasses every color of the spectrum, particulary blues, greens, and violets. In her seas are whales, larger than those of our planet. These mammals calve in mid-ocean island chains located immediately north and south of Endo's equator. The calves and their mothers are honered for their ability to balance and harmonize both the water world of endo and her inhabitants. While the forth planet in this Solar System introduced Centauri's modified clan system, it was the third, orbiting this same sun (that the Centauri call Yosman) that perfected it. This inner planet also encompassed worlds celebrated for their beauty. Semi-arid and volcanic, she contained multi-colored pools of hot mud and pliable rock formations that constantly move and chage shape. Humans from Lyra, who colonized this planet, found a world of reddish-blue seas, orange-blue skies and many tiny continents scattered across her surface.
The Home Worlds Of Lambda Centauri
This important Star System, which our astronomers refer to as Lambda Centauri, also has a smaller, blue companion. Lambda Centauri's 8-planet Solar System, located approximately 410 Light Years from Earth, contains two large water worlds. Nearly 1.3 million years ago, on Lambda Centauri's third planet colonists from Andromeda and Eridanus founded a settlement dedicated to something quite dear to both of them - the advancement of the principles of spiritual science. Due to the nature of her atmosphere and the distance from her sun, her climate was predominantly tropical. Purple-veined, multi-hued mountain chains, some as tall as our planets Himalayas, rose on most of her 10 small, island -like continents. Fascinating, sweetly singing birds, Mammalian and Reptilian life forms inhabited these exquisite locales.The second group of colonists settled a neighboring water world four times larger in diameter and ascertained very quickly that this new home world was even more astounding than the first. Her atmosphere, blowing across the misshapen mountains that lay strewn across the surfaces of her continents, crackled and glowed with a brightness that filled this world with irrepressible energies. Soon, the Centauri, becoming aware of the extraordinariness of this world, erected a magnificent temple, similar in size and layout to those found on Sirius-B and in the constellations of Andromeda and Lyra. Priests and Priestesses from the Spiritual Warrior Clan on Sirius-B, and from the corresponding worlds on Andromeda and Vega in the Lyran constellation, came here to honor this magnificent world and her great healing gift. The singing and glowing atmosphere of this world produced an exhilarating energy that vivified all. Here, soon after, the sacred blue dolphins of Sirius-B were introduced; their world song further intensified these wondrous healing energies. Ceremonies on this world are, in fact, profoundly connected to those celebrated on the sacred home worlds of Sirius-B. The Great Blue Lodge Of Creation has often told Sirian and Andromedan Priests and Priestesses that this sacred spot in Centaurus is one of the most unique in the Milky Way Galaxy. The large, outer water world in this Solar System is honored as one of the main repositories of historical and cultural information for the Great Star Union Of Centaurus. On this watery world covered in vast inland seas, great, swampy estuaries and low lying mountain ranges, stands a highly regarded university and research center dedicated to the advancement of the study of spiritual sciences. From this institution, distinguished scholar/representatives often travel to the main Galactic Federation Of Light institute of spritual science and culture in the Vega System, or to other influential research institutes in Andromeda. These academics, experts in the Centauri adaptations of Galactic Society, have trained millions of associates from across the galaxy and take great pride in the rich cultural diversity of Centaurus.
Physical Description
Human Centaurians closely resemble present-day Earth Humans. The male is very muscular and well proportioned, and ranges from 6 to 8 feet in height. The female, also well-formed but less muscular, stands between 5 feet 5 inches and 7 feet tall. Centaurian hair is blond, brown, black, or red. Skin color is either very dark brown or tan. Eyes, either almond-shaped or round, are brown, black, blue, green, or hazel. The body of the Reptilian Centaurian is very scaly, lizardly, and muscular, with variegated skin of either blue and green or red and green. The eyes are round and bulging, with reptile-like, vertical slits in either bright red or gold. The hands, narrower than those of a Human, contain six digits, and end in razor sharp, curved claws. The feet have five long toes, ending in the same curved claw as the hands. There is no tail. The female is slightly taller than the male, with a height of just under 8 feet. Reptilian Centaurians require between 2 and 4 hours of sleep per day. Renowned as consummate strategists and venerated Federation Liaison Counselors, Centaurians excel at bringing together groups of very different sentient Beings and in achieving their goals peacefully and harmoniously. The Human Centaurian language is guttural and resembles German, but with an inflection similar to Chinese. The Reptilian language is extremely guttural, with sounds that are difficult for Humans to imitate.
Centaurian Ships
Two types of Centaurian ships can be observed in our planet's skies. The first, an all-purpose scout, is bell shaped with a large, lens like, circular wing on its underside. It is nearly 30 feet high, and has a diameter of approximately 45 feet. The second, a command mothership, is cigar-shaped with a small bulge in its middle, and measures approximately 2,000 feet long. She serves as a carrier for 350 science liaison officers who coordinate the preliminary analysis of data from the sector quadrant to which this mothership is assigned.
