Shocking Myths about Sirius - The Dog Star

Updated: Jan 22, 2023

Numerous stories and legends have been based on the star Sirius, commonly referred to as the "Dog Star," throughout history. In ancient Egypt, the goddess Isis and her brother/husband Osiris were thought to reside in the star. It was believed that Isis's tears, which she shed in grieving for Osiris, were to blame for the annual flooding of the Nile. The rising of Sirius, also referred to as the "Star of Isis," was thought to coincide with the Nile's flooding.

The star, which was linked to the god Apollo in ancient Greece, was thought to be the cause of the yearly heat wave that was supposed to occur in the summer. The mystery illness known as the "Sirius Disease," which was reported to affect people during the warmest time of the year, was also thought to have its roots in the star.


The Sirius star was revered as a strong and sacred symbol in numerous traditional societies. For instance, the Dogon people of West Africa held that the star was the home of the Nommo, a race of beings that resembled fish and were credited with bringing civilisation to Earth. The "Ant People," a species of beings who resided beneath the Earth's surface, were thought to reside in the star, according to a tradition held by the Hopi people of North America.


The star Sirius has been the focus of many conspiracy theories in recent years, including the idea that it is home to a highly developed alien civilization. Some individuals also think that the star is related to old secret organisations like the Freemasons and that it holds the key to discovering the mysteries of the cosmos.


It's vital to remember that these Sirius myths and tales are regarded superstitions and beliefs of ancient societies. The brightest star in the night sky above the Earth is the main-sequence star Sirius, which is situated in the constellation Canis Major and is approximately 8.6 light-years away.

About Me

I believe spirituality is as pure as it sounds, it’s the core essence of our existence. People travel to different places in search of this light but in truth, if you wish to know the unknown then this light can also find you wherever you are. The path of spirituality is filled with many obstacles, whether it’s created by our anger, our disbelief, or any outside distraction, and without proper guidance, it is not possible to complete the spiritual journey hence I share my knowledge and experiences with people and motivate them to walk on spirituality so that they know more about themselves can come out of worldly illusions.
