From ZDOGGMD Livestream    • Awakening, Consciousness, And More, LIVE (...   Gubernaculum "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Gubernaculum_(classical)" A gubernaculum in classical references describes a ship's rudder or steering oar. The English word government is related to the word. Classical depiction Various gods such as Tritons and Venus have been shown with a gubernaculum. It is most associated with Fortuna since, along with the cornucopia, it is an item that she is often depicted as holding. The corresponding Greek god Tyche is also regularly shown with a gubernaculum. There are abundant depictions of Fortuna holding the gubernaculum on coins, in paintings, on altars and statues or statuettes. Symbolism and meaning In mythology the rudder, which the goddess can steer, represents control of the changeable fortunes of life. Plato used the metaphor of turning the Ship of State with a rudder. In the Biblical book of James, the author compares the tongue with a ship's rudder which, though physically small, makes great boasts. GUBERNACULUM "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Gubernaculum" The paired gubernacula (from Ancient Greek κυβερνάω = pilot, steer) also called the caudal genital ligament, are embryonic structures which begin as undifferentiated mesenchyme attaching to the caudal end of the gonads (testes in males and ovaries in females). Structure The gubernaculum is present only during the development of the urinary and reproductive organs. It is later replaced by distinct vestiges in males and females. Males The upper part of the gubernaculum degenerates. The lower part persists as the gubernaculum testis ("scrotal ligament"). This ligament secures the testis to the most inferior portion of the scrotum, tethering it in place and limiting the degree to which the testis can move within the scrotum. Females The gubernaculum has two vestigial remnants in females, the ovarian ligament and the round ligament of the uterus (ligamentum teres uteri) which respectively serve to support the ovaries and uterus in the pelvis. Development As the scrotum and labia majora form in males and females respectively, the gubernaculum aids in the descent of the gonads (both testes and ovaries). History The gubernaculum was first described by John Hunter in 1762. The term comes from Ancient Greek meaning to steer, or the rudder or helm.
