Wheel of Heaven reads ancient texts — Raëlian, biblical, and cross-cultural — through a precessional clock, on the working hypothesis that the gods of those texts were a small advanced human civilization from elsewhere. Pick a path below, or read the orientation first.

Elohim
Elohim (Hebrew: אֱלֹהִים) is the plural Hebrew name used throughout the Torah for the figures conventionally translated as God. On the reading developed in the Raëlian source material and adopted by the Wheel of Heaven corpus, the term refers to a specific extraterrestrial civilization of biological beings, technologically far in advance of present-day humanity, who designed and synthesized terrestrial life — including …
ElohimYahweh
Yahweh (Hebrew: יהוה, YHWH) is the proper name of the principal divine figure of the Hebrew Bible, conventionally read by mainstream tradition as the singular God of Israel. On the reading developed in the Raëlian source material and adopted by the Wheel of Heaven corpus, Yahweh is a specific Eloha — the president of the Council of the Eternals, the senior alliance authority who personally directed the creation of li…
Cosmology & FrameworkRaëlism
Raëlism is the religious-philosophical movement founded by Raël (Claude Vorilhon) in 1974-1976 following his reported December 13, 1973 contact with an officer of the Elohim alliance at the Puy-de-Lassolas crater near Clermont-Ferrand. The movement is structurally distinctive within the broader religious-movement landscape in being explicitly atheist — rejecting supernatural deity in favor of the Elohim as advanced b…
MetaWheel of Heaven
Wheel of Heaven is a curated comparative knowledge project — both the name of an interpretive framework and the corpus that articulates it — centered on revelation, cosmic chronology, ancient memory, sacred history, and modern reinterpretation. The project's working hypothesis: terrestrial life was produced by the deliberate scientific work of a specific advanced civilization, called in the Hebrew Bible the *Elohim*,…
Cosmic ChronologyPrecession
Precession is the steady cyclical change in the orientation of Earth's rotational axis, traced as a slow circular motion of the celestial poles against the background of fixed stars. The third of the three principal Earth motions (after daily rotation and annual revolution), precession completes one full cycle in approximately 25,772 years on modern astronomical measurement, or 25,920 years on the astrological-tradit…
Cosmic ChronologyGreat Year
The Great Year is the period of one complete cycle of axial precession — the duration required for the Earth's rotational axis to trace out one full cone against the background of fixed stars, equivalent to one complete circuit of the vernal equinox point around the ecliptic. On the modern astronomical measurement, the Great Year is approximately 25,772 years; on the astrological-tradition reckoning, it is 25,920 yea…
Places & LocationsEden
Eden (Hebrew: עֵדֶן, ʿĒden) is the region named in the Hebrew Bible as the location of the garden in which the first humans were created and lived before their expulsion. On the reading developed in the Raëlian source material and adopted by the Wheel of Heaven corpus, Eden is the operational territory of the Israel team of Elohim creators on the antediluvian supercontinent — the team whose biological synthesis work pr…
Texts & SourcesGenesis
Genesis (Hebrew: בְּרֵאשִׁית, B'reshit) is the first book of the Hebrew Bible, opening with two distinct creation narratives followed by the primeval and patriarchal histories. On the reading developed by Jean Sendy and the Raëlian source material and adopted by the Wheel of Heaven corpus, the seven-day creation account of Genesis 1 is read as a compressed record of seven precessional ages, c. 21,810 BCE through c. 6,690 …

What Wheel of Heaven Is
Wheel of Heaven is a long reading of an old story — the story that ancient texts from many traditions tell about where humanity came from, who made it, and why. The reading takes the Raëlian source material as its primary interpretive lens: that the Elohim of Genesis were not a deity but a team — a small advanced human civilization, capable of designing life and operating across interstellar distances. Around that lens, the project assembles biblical, Mesopotamian, Vedic, Mesoamerican, and other material, and organizes it on the only clock long enough to hold it — the precession of the equinoxes, the slow 26,000-year wobble of Earth's axis that turns the night sky into a calendar of ages.
This is a working hypothesis, not a creed. The site is built so you can check the work.
How to Read This
The site reads the comparative material through the Raëlian frame, not as a neutral arbitrator. Within that frame, claims about the canon are stated directly. Comparative claims across traditions stay hedged — Mormonism, Bahá'í, Caodaism, and the rest are read in dialogue, not flattened into "the same story." Scientific and historical claims stay measured. Critical material is presented in its own voice.
Every page carries a small badge labeling its main claim as direct, inferred, or speculative — honesty about what kind of statement you are reading.
The goal is clarity, not certainty. If the evidence shifts, the reading shifts.
