Since you seem to be very confused, I will make an attempt to help you clarify your thoughts. The first step to understanding the true nature of
reality is to know the difference between appearance and reality. The video you link to is an excellent example: it presents an image in it which
appears as though there were two suns in the sky. Appearances can be deceiving. In this case, you must turn to your inner self first and ask:
Am I really seeing this with my own eyes, or am I being presented with a fleeting, artificial image? A moment's meditation would reveal that if there
were two suns in the sky, you should be able to see them yourself. Indeed, if there were truly two suns, everyone on Earth should be able to see them,
therefore the video is some manner of illusion. Experience of the nature of optics allows one to conclude that this illusion is indeed not a sundog,
but rather the result of the sun being bisected by something on the horizon and taking on what appears to be two circular aspects when magnified by
the camera. The human mind is capable of revealing all mysteries in time.
As for your confusion about the different planets you have confounded, their names, their dates of discovery and so forth, it might help if one views
them spread out first in terms of time, then in terms of space. Let us therefore create a timeline which clarifies how the existence of planets is
predicted and confirmed and the various ways these planets were named.
July 5, 1687: Noted alchemist Sir Isaac Newton published
Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica
. on which he set forth the
mathematical principles governing celestial motion. He deduced that all bodies possessing mass were linked together by an invisible force called
"gravity." This force was proportional to the masses involved and acted over a distance without intermediation. His principles would make it possible
to observe the actions of unseen bodies on those that were visible, permitting the discovery of new planets.

March 13. 1781: Sir William Herschel first observes a body he believes to be a comet. A Russian astronomer, Anders Johan Lexell, using Newton's
equations, was the first to calculate its orbit and prove that it was indeed a new planet. Herschel named the new planet "Georgium Sidus," or
"George's Star" after his monarch, King George III.
Reference.
January 1, 1801: Giuseppe Piazzi first spots a small star of about 8th magnitude. Upon discovering that the star had changed positions when he tried
to recover it the following night, he began to suspect it might be a comet. After plotting its path over several night, he concluded it must be a new
planet. It's orbit was calculated and found to lie in a "gap" between Mars and Jupiter predicted by Bode's Law. He named the tiny new planet "Ceres
Ferdinandea," after the Roman and Sicilian goddess of grain and King Ferdinand IV of Naples and Sicily. By 1807, three more such planetoids were
found, all of them named after classical goddesses. Although they were initially called "planets," Sir William Herschel coined the term "asteroid"
from the Greek αστεροειδής, asteroeidēs, "star-like." This term became universal by mid-century.
Reference. Reference.
September 23, 1846: Johann Gottfried Galle (assisted by Heinrich D'Arrest), first observes a planet that had been predicted using Newton's equations
by Urbain Le Verrier. The unseen body's presence was revealed by irregularities in the motion of George's Star, which was by then called "Uranus" by
everyone but HM Nautical Atlas Office.
Reference.
March 26, 1859: French amateur astronomer Edmond Modeste Lescarbault claims to have observed a transit of an intra-Mercurial planet predicted by Le
Verrier. This planet was hypothesized to explain irregularities in the orbit of Mercury, using, once again, Newtons laws. As "discoverer," Lescarbault
named this planet "Vulcan," Although other observers claimed to have made sporadic sightings over several decades, it was never officially confirmed.
In 1915, Einsteins Theory of Relativity was able to account for the precession of Mercury's orbit without postulating the existence of Vulcan, and the
planet lives on in fond memory as the Solar System's "ghost planet."

1906: Percival Lowell, eccentric American astronomer, dedicates his observatory to the search for a trans-Neptunian planet. It had been suspected for
years due to perturbations in Neptune's orbit. Working with William Henry Pickering, they worked out possible locations for this hypothetical planet
which the dubbed "Planet X," X being the mathematical symbol for "unknown."
February 18, 1930: Clyde Tombaugh, working at Lowell's Flagstaff Observatory, and using a device that compares photos taken on successive nights,
spots a previously unknown body near where Lowell and Pickering's calculations predicted "Planet X" be found. By tradition, the observatory retained
the right to name the new planet. There was a sort of contest held and the winning name, Pluto, was suggested by Venetia Burney, an eleven year old
English school girl. The choice of name may have been influenced by the fact that the first two letters of Pluto commemorate the initials of Percival
Lowell.

ca. 1962: Samael Aun Weor , born Víctor Manuel Gómez Rodríguez, begins to issue prophecies about a planet he calls Hercolubus:
Hercolubus is already coming, it is found in view by all the astronomers of planet Earth; it is gigantic, mighty, six times bigger than Jupiter
and belongs to the Tyler solar system. It is not like many suppose, a dislocated planet of some solar system, no, it is not dislocated; it spins
around the gravitational center of the Tyler solar system. Before long, that gigantic world will pass on an angle of our solar system, then the
catastrophe will be precipitated. In celestial mechanics, Hercolubus helps verticalize the poles, it is a piece of the great machine. The approach of
Hercolubus is at our door. In the year 1999, Hercolubus will be visible before all human beings and every eye will see it, and in plain midday it will
appear like another sun. When Hercolubus passes near the Earth, it will obviously precipitate the catastrophe. This gigantic world has an
extraordinary power of attraction.
The End Times
Weor was highly influenced by Madame Blavatsky, so it is unclear whether he believes that Hercolubus and it's primary, Tylo, exists on this
"vibrational plane" or not. Elsewhere, he says:
An unusual event is going to accelerate the process of swift change to the axis of the planet Earth.
I am referring to the planet Hercolubus.
This planet is six times bigger than the planet Jupiter.
The planet Hercolubus belongs to the distant solar system of Tylo. The solar system of Tylo is rapidly approaching our solar system, and Hercolubus is
rapidly approaching Earth.
Modern Astronomers have before their sight the planet Hercolubus, or as it is known by modern science, the Barnard star.
This planet is a powerful giant that will pass through an angle of our solar system. When this happens, the revolution of the axis of the planet Earth
will accelerate violently.
Then the final catastrophe will occur.
Some scientists believe that they will be able to push this monstrous planet away with nuclear explosions, but this will be useless. It will be
impossible to push this tremendous mass of a planet out of the way with mere nuclear bombs.
This same planet brought Atlantis to an end. Before Atlantis existed, it annihilated the existence of another continent. We know very well that the
continent of Mu or Lemuria sank within the waters of the boisterous pacific ocean after 10,000 years of earthquakes and incessant volcanic eruptions.

Unfortunately, this has taken rather longer than I expected, but I will continue laying out this timelline later, starting with theorizing about the
possibility of brown dwarfs in 1963. I hope this is of help in getting your thoughts together.
