I've watched a video or two by Anthony Patch on this topic a while back the model of an earlier Saturn centric solar system and golden age of chronos etc but haven't put enough hours into digging to say much.
It is quite fascinating that Saturn was often called Helios to the ancient civilizations. Here are several quotations from sourced books detailing this phenomenon. There are several theories as to why Saturn would be equated with the Sun, however in my opinion, Lucifer the light bearer needed a place to call home. If he can have a throne here on earth(london), then why can he not also have one on Saturn, above the clouds.
Isaiah 14:12-15
12 How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!
13 You said in your heart, “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon.
14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”
Perhaps the banishment to Tartarus, although no doubt a place of dense spiritual darkness to the fallen angels, also represents a limitation as to where the fallen angels can influence things within the physical universe, in order to prevent them from doing anymore damage than they have already done. The solar system, although big to us, would most certainly be a small prison for the spiritual beings confined within it, who no doubt could go anywhere they want within the universe. Knowing that this, the solar system, was all they had to work with, Saturn and his demons conjured up the plan for planet worship. It is in this way that Satan resides above man as their God, through Saturn(his heavenly throne), he misleads mankind to worship him. Anyways, just a theory I am working on at the moment.
Anyways, here is a short list of quotes presenting the Saturn = Helios information.
“From Testimonies of learned authors, which makes Saturn the same with Bel…”The Greeks” call Baal, Bel; who they say is the same with Saturn. The Phoenicians and Syrians call Saturn Bel and Hel; whence not improbably our old God Hel, formerly Famous in Britain, and the Father of our Cassibelinas is sometimes styled Hel, or Heli….”

“Greek astronomical lore also preserves Saturn’s connection with the Sun. With reference to the Babylonian star-worshippers, the chronicler Diodorus writes: “To the one we call Saturn they give a special name, ‘Sun-star.’” Various manuscripts of the Epinomis, traditionally ascribed to Plato but now thought to be the work of Philip of Opus, substitute the name Helios for Kronos, in apparent recognition of the ancient identification of Saturn as the star of the sun.”
