I do think Sirius has importance and I don't think it was studied and highlighted through the ages for no reason.
No evidence. Sorry.
Occultist that have expanded there consciousness have visited Sirius by astral projection, romote viewing etc.
Are you referring to the story about Siris B and the Dogon? Not a lot to back that up, I'm afraid, just a lot of imagination concerning the actual legend, a lot like that hair guy on Ancient Aliens. Here is an enumeration of the facts, and claims.
Dogon people ancient Egyptians etc etc have documented and told of the characteristics of Sirius before telescopes could.

Perhaps one would forgive Robert Temple for believing that the Dogon had been visited by men from Sirius if their legend specifically stated so. But it does not! Nowhere in his 290-page book does Temple offer one specific statement from the Dogon to substantiate his ancient astronauts claim. The best he does is on page 217, where he reports that the Dogon say: "Po tolo [Sirius B] and Sirius were once where the Sun now is." Of this ambiguous statement, Temple comments: "That seems as good a way as any to describe coming to our solar system from the Sirius system, and leaving those stars for our star, the Sun." But this cannot conceal the fact that the whole Sirius "mystery" is based on Temple's own unwarranted assumption.
Not hard to imagine. There were globes long before there was Jung.
Jung when having his NDE described how the earth looked from outer space before we had this knowledge through Technology.
Thus, more fitting of religion than science. Visions and stuff. Faith, not evidence.
Yeah there's evidence of astral projection the experiments are hard to replicate because of the state of awareness required for it to be successful
Some try to argue that the evolution of intelligence puts an end to evolution. I'm not one of those. If our environment changes enough, so will we. Or die.
I believe in evolution and I don't think we are near our pinnacle, you think you are, you're wrong.

Yup. It is very bright and sparkly. Can't help but catch the eye.
Similarly, things like Orion's belt and the Pleiades often are the subject of myth. Real eye catchers for those who had very dark skies and not much in the way of artificial lighting. Not surprising that great significance was placed on various "billboards" in the sky. Especially when agrarian societies figured out they could use them to identify the proper time to start planting.

When you have actual physical evidence, or a solid theory that can be tested and consistently reproduced and recorded I'm sure Phage will adjust his perspective, just like any other rational human being.
Until then, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, which this thread and many like it fail to produce.
