“Spirituality is meant to take us beyond our tribal identity into a domain of awareness that is more universal.”
– Deepak Chopra
A “Cosmic Egg” — in which the universe, or some primordial being comes into existence by the hatching of an egg — is found in the creation myths of many cultures. Why is this concept so pervasive throughout the world? Clues to the origin of the Cosmic Egg may lie in another symbol commonly paired with the egg — the symbol of intertwined snakes — which some believe represents ancient knowledge of the DNA double-helix spiral. Did our ancestors have advanced insight into human biological coding? And could the Cosmic Egg represent, not the cosmos or the gods, but our own creation and genetic manipulation? Ancient Astronaut theorists suggest that just like the world’s most iconic religious symbols, the Cosmic Egg cannot be summed up as representing a singular thing, but may have a much deeper meaning.

INTRODUCTION [7a]
| “The symbol of the egg is a worldwide symbol.”
– Erich von Däniken (Author, Chariots of the Gods?) |
|
“It is more widespread than the cross. It was something that contained great power that could conceivably be released.” – Jonathan Young, Ph.D. |
| “It seems to point to our source of origin.”
– William Henry (Author / Investigative Mythologist), |

“You have to wonder now if we’re coming to much the same conclusion as was already reached thousands of years ago. Where are they getting this information? Is it coming from extraterrestrials?” – David Childress (Author, Technology of the Gods) |
Since the dawn of civilization, mankind has credited its origins to gods and other visitors from the stars. What if it were true? Did extraterrestrial beings really help to shape our history? And if so, might the truth be found once we decode the Cosmic Egg?
