Hercolubus is a planet that figures into the belief systems of some Gnostic and New Age groups. The Gnostic movement was fueled in the 1950's by a writer, self named as Samael Aun Weor (Born in Colombia), who wrote about 70 books with absolutely no sound foundation. He used to say that his books were based on experiences which were obtained by voyages to the "Astral World". Despite of this, he still has thousands of followers.
Gnostic texts indicate Barnard's Star or the comet known as Barnard 1 is actually a planet about 600 times the size of the Earth, and is foretold in the Bible as "Wormwood" (Revelation 8:10-11)[citation needed]
According to Gnostics, the orbits of Hercolubus and the Earth come very close to each other at the end of every Earth sidereal year. It is believed by Gnostics that the increase of global chaos and natural disasters are a symptom of Hercolubus' increasing proximity.[citation needed]
