1. I see, I was wondering about how the Moon fit in, and wasn't aware that it ruled infancy. Likewise, Atlantis feels like the sunny, blue skied noontime of the human race, based on the legends I've heard. Most other correspondences make sense, and I forgot to mention: the Seven Rays state that Mars is connected with technics and scientific/material mastery, which would make it an even better fit. I'm honestly not sure what the 6th Jupiterian cycle will be like, presumably grandiose, generous, and monarchical?
Just to make it official, I'll repost the listing, with corrections/additions:
the Moon -- Polarians (infancy) Venus -- Hyperboreans (growth) Mercury -- Lemurians (the messenger, how ironic...) Sun -- Atlanteans (golden zenith) Mars -- current 5th cycle/Aryans (some might object, but by any name, we're an unruly lot. Mars fits our love of warfare) Jupiter -- the 6th cycle, yet to come Saturn -- the 7th and final cycle, yet to come (senescence)
Going by the planetary numbers, that sequence would be: 9786543. Am I doing this right? I wonder why it's slightly tweaked from a descending sequence..? The Lemurian deviation at work again?
2. As I thought, that makes sense. It helps to analyze things with nuance, rather than an all-or-nothing approach.
3. I remember reading about the Hopi legends of the Fifth and other worlds, but I hadn't known that uncannily accurate prophecy of the Circle or Cross. It makes sense that the contest would be both material and spiritual, since they're ultimately linked, as stated by the ancient phrase: as above, so below. I guess it's not for me to judge why the Cross was victorious, it's just the way of things I suppose.

Once again, thanks for the info!
