Do You Know What Zodiac Sign You Are In Christ?

The news article linked to below: “Has Your Horoscope Changed?”, seeks to educate the reader about the difference between Sidereal and Tropical Astrology by saying that Sidereal Astrology uses the constellations to determine one’s horoscope while Tropical Astrology uses the placement of the Sun at the time of the Spring Equinox, and that most horoscopes are based on Tropical Astrology. This is true, but their definition of Sidereal Astrology is incorrect. In Sidereal Astrology or Sacred Astronomy, we observe the placement of the Sun and the planets in our Solar System from an exact location and time in history and within a fixed background of stars. It is therefore far more accurate than the Tropical Astrology that the world goes by.
As an example of the difference between Sidereal and Tropical Astrology, Tropical Astrology says the Sun was in the sign of Leo when I was born, and since I have a good deal of the personality traits ordinarily associated with people born under the sign of Leo, I never questioned it until I became fascinated with Observational Astronomy, which is another name for Sidereal Astrology without the emphasis on seeking personalized omens in the stars, which is against God’s will and shouldn’t be done.
When I discovered that Astrologers typically follow Tropical Astrology, I was curious to see what my Sun sign would be using Observational Astronomy or Sidereal Astrology. What I found was that the Sun was squarely in the sign of Cancer when I was born, and Cancer is a sign I don’t feel much of an affinity with based on the personality traits that have been assigned to it by traditional Astrologers.
However, when I looked at the location of the planets when I was born and noted that four major planets were grouped in the sign of Leo on that day, it suddenly was clear why I felt so Leonine in nature! Though the placement of the Sun and Moon have a great bearing on who we are at birth, the major planets have a good deal of bearing in this also.
Nonetheless, who we become in Yahshua Ha Mashiach is not subject to anything on the Earth or in Heaven, but is only subject to the will of God and the love of Christ. In other words, who we are born as is not as important to God as who we will become in Christ, which the stars and planets have no bearing over if we are covered by Christ’s love and are under God’s authority.
Though I have viewed the Signs in the Heavens at the time of a person’s birth, I have never done it to determine their fortune! Instead, I have looked at the signs on someone’s birthday to see what these reveal about who they are and what they can become in Christ.
At one point in my ministry, I came across a fellow preacher who had a fascination for the Gospel in the Stars and developed what he called “Christology Reports” based on his view of the Star Gospel meaning behind the Sun, Moon, star constellations, and planets at the time of a person's birth. Though I consider him to be a friend and much of what he teaches about the stars is true, he disagreed with some of my interpretations of the meanings behind the signs and planets, and I therefore feel that a few of his assumptions are incorrect. Nonetheless, I think the idea behind Christology Reports is a truly godly one that can be a blessing to certain people.
After doing several Christology Reports on my own, I have discovered that these can show people that they have a valuable purpose in Christ’s Kingdom. I also have discovered that they can reveal a little about what God’s purpose for them might be. However, the irony in doing a Christology Report is that this vision of any given person’s place in God’s Kingdom at birth cannot materialize unless they first learn to believe in Christ and follow God’s will for their lives in Christ rather than the dictates of the stars or another person’s opinion.
The truth, then, is that the stars cannot and should not govern what we will do or how we will act! Because, when we are followers of Christ, signs and omens no longer mean anything to us personally, but only have a corporate impact based on what they reveal about God’s will at any given point in history.
Has Your Horoscope Changed?

Fans of the Zodiac have been bombarded with the unsettling news that their astrological sign may not be what they thought.
The horror of switching from Gemini to Taurus had people rushing to the Web for answers, sending searches for "zodiac signs" into the stratosphere.
So has your sign changed? Probably not. But it all depends on what kind of astrology you follow. Let us explain.
It may come as a surprise that there are different branches of astrology. A main Eastern form, for example, called Sidereal astrology, looks to the background stars, those famous constellations, as its guide.
Western astrology -- which uses the zodiac -- has its signs fixed to the seasons. Most Westerners, and all those horoscope pages we eagerly check, go by the zodiac. These signs follow what early astrologers called star signs, whose reference points are the tropics that form a ring around the earth. The zodiac is based on our relationship to the sun, not the stars.
The back story: About 2,000 years ago, the astrological signs and the astronomical ones were the same. But not anymore. The locations of the signs are based on the sun's location on the first day of spring. That location in the sky has slowly drifted westward because of something called "precession" -- the earth continually wobbles (a scientific term for a slight motion) every 26,000 years. Since the constellations were first identified, they have shifted some 30 degrees. Translation: The signs have slipped about a month westward, relative to the stars.
What this means to you: If you follow astrology that is linked to the constellations, your sign would go from say, a Gemini to a Taurus. You could even have a 13th sign, Ophiuchus, which you may have read about.
"It's a huge point of confusion for the public," says Bing Quock, assistant director of Morrison Planetarium at the California Academy of Sciences. For those who follow Western astrology, "astrologers are not talking about the constellations at all. When an astrologer says the sun is in a certain sign, they're talking about the sign, the location relative to the equinox. They're not talking about the location of the constellations. "
In short, if you follow the Sidereal astrology, the Eastern branch, your sign may have shifted. (And most likely, no surprise to you at all: This news is hundreds of years old).
But for the rest of us, our horoscope, and our signs, are still the same.

The Ominous Dawning of the Age of Aquarius
Tied to the 2012 Mayan World End Date

In the following bit of detective work, it will be shown that the anticipated dawning of the Age of Aquarius has indeed arrived, and - true to the hype - it does mark the dawn of a New Age of Spirituality that will be accompanied by major political, economic and spiritual upheavals. The clue that the Age of Aquarius has arrived is hidden in the old song about its arrival that was sung by the hip 60’s rock band called the 5th Dimension. However, this song’s lyrics reflects knowledge that can only have been known in occult circles or by sacred astronomers who were familiar with God’s time line hidden and preserved in the Mazzaroth. Here are the opening lyrics to that ethereal old song:
When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius…
Fascinatingly, the signs in the heavens that are pinpointed in this song occurred early in 2009, and truly do herald the dawning of the Age of Aquarius. But before these signs in the heavens can be explained satisfactorily, the concept of Precession and its relationship to the structure of the Zodiac must be understood. Simply put, the 12 Houses of the Zodiac are 12 constellations that the Sun passes through each day from east to west, and the path that the Sun takes through the sky is called the Ecliptic. However, due to the wobble caused by the Earth’s tilted axis, the Sun’s position appears to be moving slowly backward through the Zodiac from west to east on the Spring and Fall Equinoxes and on the solstices. For this reason, though the Sun rose due east in the sign of Taurus in 4000 BC on the Spring Equinox, it now rises just within the borders of the constellation of Aquarius on that same day.
Now, it takes the Sun 2,160 years to pass through the 30 degrees demarcation for each sign of the Zodiac along the Ecliptic. This 2,160 year period is known as a Precessional Age, and there are 12 Precessional Ages that mark the retrograde path of the Sun through each Zodiac Sign. When added together, these 12 Ages mark one full 25,920-year Precessional Cycle of time.
Interestingly, the Age of Aquarius was preceded by the Age of Pisces the Fishes, which began around 150 BC. This means that the entire New Testament Church Age has coincided with the Age of Pisces. In my books, I reveal how the sign of Pisces symbolizes the Sign of Jonah that Yahshua came to reveal to mankind. Likewise, the preceding 2,160-year Age of Aries the Ram was marked by the Bible’s Sacrificial Age when Tabernacle and Temple sacrifices centered around the offering of a lamb or ram on the altar. Before that, the Patriarchal Age was marked by the Sign of Taurus the Bull, and both Aries and Taurus mark a sacred altar in Heaven that signify Yahshua in His divine role as the Lamb of God and perfect atonement sacrifice for sin. In the Book of 1 Enoch, the antediluvian and Post-Flood patriarchs up to Abraham were represented as bulls or oxen in one of Enoch’s prophetic visions, while the leaders of Israel after Jacob and under the Law of Moses were represented by rams and sheep (1 Enoch 89:1-27).
The amazing correlation between the Precessional position of the Sun and the prophetic spiritual Age we are in is important to the understanding of Bible Prophecy. As the antediluvian Sethite patriarch Enoch prophesied, nothing happens by accident in the heavens surrounding our Earth. Every star, meteor, asteroid, planet, moon, sun, nebula, and star cluster has some allegorical and spiritual meaning connected to the Gospel in the Stars that Enoch called the Heavenly Tablets. In the Star Gospel, the entire circle of the Zodiac has a Messianic and spiritual message. Every portion of the Zodiac also reveals certain aspects of mankind’s spiritual destiny and Yahshua’s ministry to mankind.
Saturn is no exception. As the 7th of the major celestial bodies in our Solar System out from the Sun (1. Mercury, 2. Venus, 3. Moon, 4. Earth, 5. Mars, 6. Jupiter, 7. Saturn), Saturn has a connection to the seventh day of the week, which is called Shabbat or the Sabbath by all professing Jews and Messianics. In fact, in Hebrew, the 7th Planet is called “Shabbatai” after the Sabbath day, when God rested after the six Great Days of Creation Week. However, this seventh day of rest for God was cut short when Satan destroyed and corrupted the perfection of Yahweh’s Creation with sin and rebellion against God.
Because the ringed planet Saturn is tied to the Sabbath, it has an undeniable connection to Christ’s Millennial Rule during the Seventh Great Day of the Lord. Indeed, the rings of the planet Saturn rightfully represent Yahshua’s many Royal Crowns, while the reddish color of the neighboring planet Jupiter signifies Yahshua as the Redeemer who sacrificed himself for us on the Cross. However, since Satan is the thief who stole the rulership of this world from mankind when they fell, Saturn has also been associated with Satan in occult circles.
Nonetheless, God knew this was going to happen and had a plan to reconcile mankind’s relationship with Himself. This centered around an allotment of six thousand years for Satan’s evil-doing to continue to adversely affect humanity’s understanding of and relationship with the one true God. After this, Satan’s reign of terror over mankind would be put to an end by a thousand-year Great Day of rest and peace under the benevolent and righteous rulership of Yahshua Ha Mashiach (i.e. Jesus the Messiah).
In my book: “The Language of God in Prophecy,” it is shown that the 7th Great Day of the Lord likely officially began on the Rosh Hashanah of September 11th and 12th in 1999 AD. By Jewish reckoning, this year spanned to the next Rosh Hashanah in September of 2000. Therefore, the year 2000 was officially the first year of the 1,000 year Great Day of the Lord. Since this is the case, the birth pangs that the prophet Micah spoke of, which are to occur before and during the Tribulation, should have already begun (Micah 4:9-13: 1 Thess. 5:2-3). Indeed, we can now see the evidence of this with the world economic collapse and the global push for the setting up of the one-world government and religious system that’s been dubbed the New World Order but that Christians know is the Antichrist’s kingdom.
Besides the earthly signs, there have been many celestial signs that the Great Tribulation followed by Yahshua’s Second Coming is very near. One of the first indicators that Yahshua’s return is imminent can be found in the Mayan Calendar’s end date for this world cycle. According to their calendar, the judgment and destruction of this world’s demonically-controlled political, communication, and economic systems will begin full-throttle on December 21st, 2012, which will be a few months into the 13th Jewish year of the 7th Great Day of the Lord since Adam and Eve’s fall from Grace.
This 7th Great Day that began on Rosh Hashanah signals the imminence of the coming of the Tribulation, Armageddon, and the Millennial Rule of Christ. In fact, just as there are ten days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement, there are to be ten years between the first Rosh Hashanah of this 7th Great Day in 1999 and the Rosh Hashanah occurring in 2010, which may mark the beginning of the 7-year Tribulation period. Then, two years into the Tribulation, amazing signs in the heavens will appear on December 21st, 2012 that are meant to announce the release of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to begin their dreaded rides over the Earth. To learn more about the astounding heavenly signs that will announce the release of the Four Horsemen on the Winter Solstice of 2012, see my previous 3-part article (click the following links to access the article parts):

So that the events of the Tribulation can occur as ordained before the Kingdom of God on Earth is set up, God has allowed Satan to be “the prince of the power of the air” that rules the world of electronic and digital mass communication via satellite, television, radio and air travel (Ephesians 2:1-3). Thank our Father God that in the near future, Satan will be permanently dethroned and Yahshua will take His rightful place as the Ruler of the Earth and co-ruler of the Universe with our Father Yahweh! But in the meantime, through a massive electrical storm on the planet Saturn, God is letting the world know that the Age of Aquarius is indeed dawning and Satan is presently in control of the electronic airwaves and satellite communications so that his short reign over the whole Earth via the Antichrist’s religious and political system can take place.
In fact, ever since January 2009, Saturn has been the home to an ongoing massive electrical storm that shows no signs of slowing down any time soon. Due to the spiritual meaning of Saturn as Yahshua’s Crown being temporarily in the hands of Satan, the electrical storm on this planet is likely a sign that Satan is doing all he can to destroy mankind before Yahshua arrives to wrestle His crown out of Satan’s clutches forever. In keeping with Satan’s malevolent purpose for it, even all of the modern military equipment being manufactured in the United States and elsewhere today is heavily dependent on sophisticated digital electronic equipment for its use on the battlefield.
According to the Language of God, then, this electrical storm on Saturn is a physical indication that the spiritual battle between Yahshua and Satan is now reaching epic proportions and the end of the Age that Yahshua warned His disciples about is imminent (Matthew 24:3-30). In support of this, there have been quite a few signs in the heavens over the past few years that indicate that the End Times have arrived. One of these was the startling appearance of three comets in the constellation Perseus the Breaker between 1996 and 2006. These were Comet Hyakutake in 1996, Comet Hale-Bopp in 1997, and Comet Holmes in 2006. Intriguingly, in addition to signifying Yahshua as the breaker of Satan’s control of the world, Perseus symbolizes David slaying Goliath and chopping off his head and - per the Book of Jasher - Esau’s slaying of Cush’s son Nimrod, the world’s first Post-Flood dictator and a type of Antichrist (Jasher 27:2-12).
In addition to the prophetic import of the comets in Perseus, there were full Lunar Eclipses in the sign of Pisces with the Moon in conjunction with the planet Saturn on the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles on September 27th in 1996 and on September 17th in 1997. Fascinatingly, the two fish of Pisces signify the Two Houses of Israel - with one house consisting of Messianic Jews, and the other of Gentile believers, and the Feast of Sukkot or Tabernacles signifies the ingathering of both houses into one body during the Millennial Rule of Christ. Since 1997, the number of Messianic Jews worldwide has skyrocketed, and this is a sign from Yahweh that the joining of the Two Houses of Israel into one will soon be fully accomplished!
In addition to these past events, there are two significant Solar Eclipses falling on the 1st of Av on the Jewish Calendar in both 2009 and 2010. These Solar Eclipses in Cancer the Crab on July 22nd in 2009 and in Gemini the Twins on July 11th in 2010 likely mark the final year before the seven-year Tribulation period begins. The 1st of Av marks the beginning of a period of mourning for Jews that reaches its climax on the 9th of Av - the ominous day when both the First and the Second Temple to Yahweh in Jerusalem were destroyed. It therefore seems likely that the time between these 1st of Av eclipses is meant as a warning to the Jews that “the time of Jacob’s trouble” that is to come before Yahshua’s reign over the Earth is imminent (Jeremiah 30:4-9).
All these celestial events have led up to the signs that appeared in the heavens on February 16th, 2009. On that day, the first heavenly sign could be seen in the position of the Sun, which was in the constellation of Aquarius the Water-Bearer. As a part of the Gospel in the Stars, Aquarius represents each disciple of Christ’s death in baptism and their receipt of the Holy Spirit as well as the divinely sent destruction of the Earth by water and Noah’s deliverance during the Great Flood. However, as my earlier article “As It Was in The Days of Noah” showed, it now signifies that mankind has finally arrived at a time in history much like it was in the days of Noah just before the Flood.
Later on the night of February 16th, the heavenly signs that were identified in the song “Aquarius” appeared after the sign of Aquarius set below the western horizon. At that time, the neighboring sign of Capricorn was just above the western horizon and Jupiter was in conjunction with Mars there. In addition, the Moon was in the sign of Libra the Scales, and Libra is the Seventh Sign or Seventh House of the Sun from Aries, which is considered the First House of the Sun today (though it was likely Virgo in ancient times). These are the exact same signs that the 5th Dimension’s song lyrics mentioned as a symbol that the dawning of the Age of Aquarius has arrived!
Here is a graphic of the signs in the heavens on February 16th, 2009:
http://pillar-of-enoch.com/graphics/aquarius/2-16-09_Age-Aquarius.jpg
As if to confirm that what was seen in the heavens on February 16th was indeed a warning of the beginning of a new Age, another major sign appeared in the heavens on February 23rd, 2009. At that time, the eerie green double-tailed comet named Lulin after the Chinese observatory in Taiwan that discovered it appeared in conjunction with the planet Saturn in the Sign of Leo the Lion along with a spectacular line up of other planets in the sign of Capricorn the Goat-fish.
Here is a composite graphic showing Saturn and Lulin in conjunction in Leo and the line up of Neptune, the Moon, Mars, Jupiter and Mercury in Capricorn on February 23rd, 2009:
http://pillar-of-enoch.com/graphics/aquarius/2-23-09_Capricorn-Lulin.jpg
Intriguingly, as shown in my book “The Language of God in History,” Sethite astronomers allegorically associated the sign of Leo with China in the End Times, and Capricorn with the non-coastal Western and Midwestern states of the United States and most of Mexico, while the sign of Aquarius governs the eastern half of the United States, Central America, and western South America. Now, Capricorn is the sign that represents the salvation of Noah and the destruction of the Nephilim during the Great Flood, and Neptune (as a planet that is not visible to the naked eye) is a planet that signifies Noah, who was likely a hermit who did God’s will in secret and thereby received the epithet “the far distant” in ancient times.
In its Sethite association with the United States, Capricorn may also signify the conservative Tea Party movement that is resisting the schemes of the Devil to take over the United States and the world before Christ’s return. In addition, the dark-faced New Moon is a symbol of Satan’s malevolent darkness and destructive force, but its power is negated by the bright light of Saturn and Jupiter, which signify the greatness of Yahshua as the Kings of Kings and our Kinsmen Redeemer or Savior. In addition, Mars represents the efficacy of Yahshua’s shed blood for the healing and restoration of all the saints, but in this case it also likely signifies the blood of the Christian martyrs around the world today that are constantly being hunted down and killed by wicked non-believers for practicing their faith openly and refusing to deny Christ.
So what does it mean to mankind now that the Age of Aquarius has evidently arrived? Well, the old song “Aquarius” tells us what it signifies to occult and New Age practitioners, who are expecting a coming Age of unprecedented global co-operation, love and understanding. As the lyrics state:
Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius!
The age of Aquarius!
Aquarius! Aquarius!
However, according to Bible prophecy, a time of spiritual darkness and global religious deception is supposed to occur before any true and lasting global peace, love and co-operation can be ushered in by the return of Yahshua and His army of saints from Heaven (See 2 Thessalonians 2:2-12). This is because the world is expecting a human savior (i.e. “the man of sin” and “the lawless one” of 2 Thessalonians 2), but no human government or agency will be able to secure the peace on Earth that most of the unsaved people of the West and East are so desperately seeking.
In fact, the Bible warns that only a supernaturally established empire with the resurrected Yahshua Ha Mashiach reigning as the Kings of kings over all mankind will be able to succeed in providing mankind with a lasting and benevolent government of peace (See Revelation 19:11-21), and therein lies the problem. If the majority of biblically unschooled and thereby spiritually dead people are expecting the current and coming economic, religious and political upheavals to lead to a time when mankind can unite on all fronts and achieve global peace and prosperity, they will most certainly work to assure its successful implementation - no matter what it takes.

Part Two: The Prophetic Portents Hidden in the ‘96 Thru ‘08 Celestial Signs
NOTE 1: This is Part Two of a Two Part Article discussing the use of Sacred Astronomy in determining the dating of key biblical prophecies. It began with: “Part One: A Celestial “X” Marks An Ominous Spot In History.” Both articles are based on Helena Lehman’s “Language of God Series” Books (see: http://pillar-of-enoch.com/language_series/) available for purchase at www.amazon.com, and http://pillar-of-enoch.com.
NOTE 2: To better understand this material, see my illustrations for this two-part article series by downloading this PDF article supplement (Expanded! contains NEW illustrations since the first article was published): http://pillar-of-enoch.com/graphics/Perseus-Prophecy_Illustrations.pdf
In 2007, several major celestial events occurred to strengthen my interpretation of the heavenly signs that appeared a decade earlier - in 1996 and 1997. Incidentally, 1997 was only two years before the close of the 6,000 years allotted for mankind that have elapsed between Adam’s creation, and the end of the Church Age. This Age ended on Rosh Hashanah, September 11th, 1999 - on the same day as the Terrorist attack that occurred two years later in 2001- at the World Trade Center in New York.
The first celestial event in 2007 was the appearance of the extremely brilliant Comet named McNaught, which appeared in the sign of Sagittarius early in January. Interestingly, the centaur/archer symbol for Sagittarius signifies Christ coming to conquer Satan, sin and death via the Cross at His First Advent, and the amazingly long tail of Comet McNaught looked like the giant sword that Christ will wield in triumph when He returns in Glory.
As if in anticipation of that same event, another Lunar Eclipse occurred on Purim - at around midnight on March 3, 2007 - which was very similar to the one on Purim in 1997. Only this time, the eclipse occurred in the sign of Leo, the Lion - a symbol for the Lion of Judah, who is Christ. As such, Leo represents Christ coming to assume His role as the King of Israel at the end of the Great Tribulation. At that time, Christ will conquer Israel’s enemies, and set up His Millennial Reign on Earth. Before discussing the last celestial sign of 2007, it is interesting to note that the Feast of Purim represents the struggle of Israel against being either assimilated, or destroyed by her enemies.
In modern times - since there is an ever-growing awareness among Christians of their Jewish roots - Purim has taken on a great deal of significance to Christians, as well as Jews. In fact, in addition to the victory of the Jews over the evil Vizier Haman in Persia, Purim now represents the desire of Christians to retain their uniquely Christian way of life, and to find protection from martyrdom. In consequence, Purim clearly symbolizes the current ideological war between the Middle East and the West - a war that is a much larger reflection of the unsettling events which led to the first Purim that was celebrated in ancient Persia (i.e. Iraq) over 2,500 years ago. A detailed overview of what Purim means for Christians can be found in my book, “The Language of God in Humanity.” (see http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Humanity/)
This leads us to discuss the final heavenly sign that occurred toward the end of 2007. Between October 23 and 26, 2007 - and right around the time of the pagan Samhain festival known as Halloween - Comet Holmes grew from a very dim magnitude 17 to a very bright magnitude 2.8. This change in brightness occurred when the comet was near to the bright star named Mirfak (which is also erroneously labeled Al Genib) in Perseus. At that time, the sword-like tail of Comet Holmes was pointing directly toward the Earth - making the comet’s tail appear to disappear, and thus making the comet temporarily look like a bright new star in Perseus.
Though Comet Holmes has faded markedly in brilliance since October of 2007, it has remained in the constellation Perseus since then, slowly doing a big retrograde loop through it. Now - just as Comets Hyakutake and Hale-Bopp did a little over a decade earlier - Comet Holmes will cross directly over the star Al Ghoul in Perseus on January 22nd, 2008, and it would be remarkable if the comet flares up again in brightness around that date. But even if it doesn’t, could Comet Holmes still be in Perseus for a reason? And is there some significance to three comets visiting the sign of Perseus in the past decade?
In order to understand what this unusual comet crossing might signify, look at my illustration entitled “Orion, Auriga, Perseus, and Aries Treading Satan Underfoot.” In it, note that the very first prophecy in the Bible - Genesis 3:15 - is repeated many times in this section of the Gospel in the Stars. Also, note that Perseus is just one of many Christ-figures in the Zodiac. In fact, Orion, Auriga, and Aries all serve as dualistic representations of Christ’s varied roles throughout history.
In Genesis 3:15, it says:
“He (i.e. Yahshua, a.k.a. Jesus) shall bruise you (i.e. Satan) on the head, and you (i.e. Satan) shall bruise Him (i.e. Yahshua) on the heel.”
This prophecy signifies that Christ will defeat the Antichrist, and his evil followers by crushing Satan’s “head,” or the seat of his power, which currently appears to be located in Africa and the Middle East, but will later encompass all of Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Russia, and the United Kingdom. These nations will unite to form an unholy alliance that will be touted as the Kingdom of God. However, it will not be Christ, but rather the Antichrist who will rule this worldly kingdom in disguise. In support of this, Genesis 3:15 indicates that Satan will hurt Christ by allegorically biting Christ’s people in the heel, or fatally wounding them, just as the adder of the Tribe of Dan will bite the horse’s heels:
“Dan shall be a serpent by the way, a viper by the path, that bites the horse's heels so that its rider (the Church) shall fall backward.” - Genesis 49:17 (NIV)
The prophecies in Genesis 3:15 and Genesis 49:17 can clearly be seen in the way the Christ-figure Perseus’ left foot rests over the Pleiades in Taurus the Bull, or dual Unicorn. Note here that the horse in Genesis 49:17 signifies the flying horse Pegasus, which also can be seen in the unicorn, and bull symbols used to signify the USA, the UK, and the EU. Meanwhile, the serpent and viper referred to as coming from the Tribe of Dan are the terrorists in the Middle East who are allegorically biting the heels of Perseus’ horse, Pegasus (i.e. the West).
Now, the Pleiades star cluster has a cup-like shape formed by six stars, which resembles the shapes of two constellations formed by seven prominent stars. These are the Big Dipper, or Ursa Major representing the True Church, and the Little Dipper, or Ursa Minor, which signifies the Apostate, or Antichristian Church. Thus, the rider allegorically seen in the Pleiades is none other than a symbol for the Seven Churches of Revelation!
Interestingly, the Pleiades are known as the Seven Sisters, even though only six of the “sisters,” or stars are currently visible with the naked eye. In ancient times, however, it appears that there were seven bright stars in the Pleiades instead of six, but one of these stars has faded markedly since then. This has given rise to myths that one sister was separated from her other sisters for some reason, but would one day be re-united with them. This suggests that the Pleiades has a duality to it, and represents something good (signified by the number 7) that will metamorphose into something evil (signified by the number 6), and then revert again into something good. Could it therefore be that, just as the Seven Sisters myth indicates, one of the Churches of Revelation (the Church of Philadelphia, or brotherly love) is to be taken in the Rapture, while the other six are to be left behind to suffer through the Great Tribulation? This seems to be a likely interpretation, and one that the Western nations should be paying heed to because of their involvement in the Middle East.
In the Star Gospel, Perseus also has two roles. In one, Perseus is Christ coming to slay Satan, that evil being who turns people’s hearts to stone - just as the gorgon Medusa turned people’s entire bodies to stone. In addition, Perseus signifies Christ trampling on the dead bodies of His enemies, as seen in Perseus’ foot over the Pleiades. In fact, the myth of Perseus riding Pegasus depicts the truth that Christ will one day ride to victory on a white horse when He returns to end the Battle of Armageddon! Sadly, however, the Antichrist will try to mimic Christ as a mighty king and conqueror, and his armies will cut off the heads of many Tribulation Saints (see Rev. 20:4) before his own head is cut off, and he and his armies are totally destroyed.
It is interesting to note here that two Bible passages seem to refer to the Perseus constellation by its Hebrew name “Peretz,” specifically in reference to Christ’s triumphant return. These are:
“I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together… like a flock in the midst of their pasture; they shall make a loud noise because of so many people. The one who breaks open (Allah Peretz) will come up before them; they will break out, pass through the gate, and go out by it; their king will pass before them, with the LORD (Yahweh) at their head.” - Micah 2:12-13 (NKJ)
“The Portion of Jacob (i.e. Christ) is not like them, for He is the Maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance. The LORD of hosts (Yahweh Tsavout) is His name. You are (i.e. Israel) My battle-ax and weapons of war: for with you… I will destroy kingdoms; With you I will break in pieces the horse and its rider; with you I will break in pieces the chariot and its rider…” “ ‘And I will repay Babylon (Iraq) and all the inhabitants of Chaldea (Iran) for all the evil they have done in Zion in your sight,’ says the LORD. ‘Behold, I am against you, O destroying mountain, who destroys all the earth,’ says the LORD. ‘And I will stretch out My hand against you...’ ” - Jeremiah 51:19-22, 24-25 (NKJ)
Now, note that - in the first Scripture from Micah - “the remnant of Israel” refers to the modern nation of Israel, which is filled with people that have been re-gathered from all the nations. In addition, they are called God’s “battle ax,” meaning that both the literal nation, and the spiritual kingdom of Israel will be utilized as weapons against God’s enemies. This is why the term “Allah Peretz,” which is translated as “the one who breaks open,” is used to refer to Christ! God’s Son is indeed the “Allah Breaker,” who will vanquish the terrorists who follow their Allah, or God!
In this case, Allah - by virtue of his fomenting of war and hate against God’s chosen people Israel - is being recognized in Scripture as Satan. In addition, in the Scripture from Jeremiah, note that the term “break in pieces” refers to the breaking action of Perseus the Breaker against God’s enemies, who are identified as Babylon, or modern-day Iraq, and Chaldea, or Iran, but which encompass all Muslim or Atheist-dominated nations with a hatred for the West. This supports what I have written about regarding Psalm 108 as a prophecy showing that the West will be victorious over much of the Middle East during a coming battle in 2008 or 2009. But be warned! This is not the Battle of Gog and Magog (or the Battle of Armageddon), but a lesser battle that will lead to a false peace, and the visible presence of the Antichrist in world affairs - though he will not be in control of the world yet. After this war, and false peace, there will be a brief, but powerful world religious revival, and then the Rapture will come.
Sometime after the secret snatching away of the saints known as the Rapture of the True Church, the dreaded battle variously known as World War III, Armageddon, the Apocalypse, or the Battle of Gog and Magog will occur. This is when the Pleiades will take on its dual role as a symbol for evil, and will represent the Harlot called the Woman (or Church) who rides the Beast (i.e. Taurus the Bull) in the Book of Revelation. This Woman signifies the unholy ecumenical alliance that has already formed between Protestant, Catholic, Buddhist, Hindu, Wiccan, and New Age congregations. Some people in these congregations will blindly ally themselves with the Antichrist after the Rapture, while many people in the same congregations who were left behind will recognize, and reject the leadership of the Antichrist. After they do, they will form a resistance movement against the Antichrist, and his evil global government. These rebels will become the Tribulation Saints - many of whom will be martyred for their faith in that final End Time hour, but will later be rewarded by Christ for their courage in the face of overwhelming persecution.
Now, since Sacred Astronomy is a method of determining what God’s Will is during any point in history, I began to look for possible correlations between celestial events, and world political and religious events from 1996 through 2007 that affected both Gentile and Jewish Israel, and the nation called Israel that - along with the USA - is so hated by radical Muslims. What I found is nothing less than shocking, since the Iraqi Disarmament Crisis began in March 1996, and continued through 1997. In addition, Osama Bin Laden declared Jihad, or Holy War against the United States in August of that same year, and Israel agreed to relinquish control of the Israeli-settled Gaza Strip to the Palestinians.
Even before that, in 1995, Israel turned over the West Bank - including the once Christian town of Bethlehem - to the Palestinians. Then they relinquished the Gaza Strip to the Palestinians in 1997. Interestingly, Joseph’s tomb is in the Gaza Strip, which includes a region of Israel that once belonged to the Half-Tribe that sprang up from Joseph’s younger son Ephraim. In my book, “The Language of God in Prophecy,” (see http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Prophecy/) I show how the term “Ephraim” pertains directly to the United States of America in Bible prophecy. In support of this connection, the building covering Joseph’s tomb was brutally destroyed by the Palestinians in the year 2000 - just one year before Terrorists destroyed the Twin Towers in New York. Then, in 2003, the Palestinians destroyed the carved stone covering Joseph’s grave.
The destruction of Joseph’s tomb in the region of Israel called Shechem was no accident, but was a symbolic gesture showing the hatred of the Palestinians, and many other radical Muslims toward the modern people of Ephraim. Though Ephraim prophetically signifies Christ’s born-again disciples around the world - it especially represents the saints in America who are outspoken in their support of the nation of Israel!
At the close of 2007, the USA-led war in Iraq that began under the Bush Administration in 2003 was still raging, though this wars’ end may be in sight - in light of the upcoming 2008 presidential elections in the USA. In addition, the November 27th Annapolis Peace Conference in Maryland, which attempted to bring an end to the ongoing Arab-Israeli Conflict of the last century, has come to nothing. This suggests that - as discussed in one of my earlier articles about the prophecy in Psalm 108 - a showdown is coming in either 2008 or 2009 that will be between the United States (along with Israel, and her other Western allies), and the Middle-East.
Ominously, as a sign of troubling times to come for the United States, it was discovered that the tomb of Joseph had been even more savagely vandalized by late 2007. In fact, the Palestinians living in Shechem - who likely know the alleged significance of Joseph’s son Ephraim in Bible Prophecy - had contemptuously turned Joseph’s tomb into a smoking, malodorous garbage pit. Indeed, they show no signs of stopping this outrageous breach of decency, and are continuing to fill it with ever-more burning heaps of garbage. To me, this situation is appalling. I find it hard to believe that the Palestinians could so shamelessly desecrate the tomb of one of the greatest patriarchs in the Bible - despite their hatred of the USA! It’s simply untenable!
Thank God that Yahshua (Jesus) will most certainly bring strong judgment and destruction upon the Palestinians, and everyone else who hates Israel, and refuses to repent of their sins in the very near future.

Part Two: The Prophetic Portents Hidden in the ‘96 Thru ‘08 Celestial Signs
NOTE 1: This is Part Two of a Two Part Article discussing the use of Sacred Astronomy in determining the dating of key biblical prophecies. It began with: “Part One: A Celestial “X” Marks An Ominous Spot In History.” Both articles are based on Helena Lehman’s “Language of God Series” Books (see: http://pillar-of-enoch.com/language_series/) available for purchase at www.amazon.com, and http://pillar-of-enoch.com.

In 2007, several major celestial events occurred to strengthen my interpretation of the heavenly signs that appeared a decade earlier - in 1996 and 1997. Incidentally, 1997 was only two years before the close of the 6,000 years allotted for mankind that have elapsed between Adam’s creation, and the end of the Church Age. This Age ended on Rosh Hashanah, September 11th, 1999 - on the same day as the Terrorist attack that occurred two years later in 2001- at the World Trade Center in New York.

Was The Star Of Bethlehem Really A Star, And Was Christ Really Born In A Barn?
Overview: In this article, Bible Scholar Helena Lehman of Pillar of Enoch Ministry reveals the myths surrounding the traditional Nativity Story, what is actually said about it in the Gospels, and what is left unsaid, but carefully implied in the mysterious story of the Magi, and the magical Star of Bethlehem.

December 9, 2007: Over the years, there has been much speculation surrounding Christ’s birth, from whether it occurred in a cave, or barn, to whether it occurred in winter or autumn, and whether the Star of Bethlehem was a supernatural event, or a natural phenomena, or both.
In the traditional view, though the location of the Nativity was a humble barn in Bethlehem, there was quite an array of guests in attendance. Besides Joseph, Mary, and a few barnyard animals, the newborn Christ was gazed upon by a group of shepherds with their flocks, a caravan containing three Wise Men, their entire entourage, and a whole legion of angels - all who served as living witnesses of the most miraculous event in history. What isn’t said is that everyone in that tiny Jerusalem suburb called Bethlehem would likely have seen, heard, and joined all these personages arriving in their small town out of curiosity, if nothing else.
In fact, upon closer scrutiny of the biblical narratives in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, a decidedly different version of the legendary events surrounding Christ’s birth emerges. Matthews’s Gospel, for example, explicitly states that Christ was a young child when the Magi found his whereabouts. Furthermore, we are told that Mary was residing in a house with Christ by this time. It therefore clearly suggests that the Wise Men arrived quite awhile after Luke’s account of Christ being laid in a manger. In addition, Matthew never gives the number of Magi present. He only tells us that this unnumbered group of dignitaries from the East worshipped Christ, and presented him with the three precious gifts. What is left unsaid, but is no doubt implied, is that these three gifts were traditionally given as tribute to newly coronated kings in Mesopotamia, and the Middle East at that time.
Over the centuries since Christ’s birth, many scholars have postulated that the Magi may have been Zoroastrians from Persia, and that the mysterious star that hovered over Bethlehem when Christ was born was a miraculous, supernatural phenomenon - and not an ordinary star. These suppositions, however, make no sense when carefully scrutinized. First of all, why would Zoroastrian dignitaries from a rival culture and religion care about the birth of a Jewish king, especially since Judea was merely a vassal kingdom under Rome’s control at that time? Furthermore, why would the Magi want to worship this king like a god, and present him with costly gifts if they had no Jewish hope in the coming of a great king and Messiah, like most Jews of that time period did?
Faced with these discrepancies, some skeptics dismiss the Nativity story as a myth. But if we strip away all the legends surrounding the biblical narratives of Christ’s birth, we can entertain more plausible assumptions about just who the Magi were, and what they were doing in Bethlehem. First of all, since virtually no one would care about the birth of a Jewish king except a Jew, or a rival to his throne, we must assume that the Magi were either Jews, or Zoroastrian converts to Judaism. Secondly, since Zoroastrian Magi were well acquainted with the mystical Astronomy of the day called Astrology, we can assume that the star they followed was a real star, and not a supernatural one.
But by far the most amazing revelation hidden in the study of the events surrounding the Nativity is what the Magi understood about the Zodiac. They would have known, for example, that the supposedly Pagan Zodiac had originally been viewed as a Bible written in the stars - whose author was God alone. Furthermore, in order to identify the time of Christ’s birth, the Magi would have had to be able to correctly interpret the special story behind each symbol of the 48 constellations in that ancient Zodiac.
Since the Holy Spirit was obviously guiding the Magi when they found Christ in Bethlehem, it would make sense that they would have understood the Zodiac through that same Spirit of God. As shown in my Language of God Book Series (at: http://pillar-of-enoch.com/graphics/Anti-Peace-Sign_4-Horsemen_Article-Pix.pdf), if the Zodiac story is viewed through Judeo-Christian eyes, the primary heroes in this ancient 48-chapter storybook are not the Greco-Roman pantheon found in Classical literature, but the Bible heroes who prefigured Christ, as well as Christ Himself in both His First and Second Advent roles!
The events surrounding the birth of Christ, the celestial signs that appeared at that time, and the amazing Gospel story behind all 48 constellations of the Zodiac are the subject of my book: “The Language of God in the Universe” (at: http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_the_Universe/). It is part of a four volume series about the allegorical Language of God, a hidden language that God uses to communicate with mankind that is found in nature, and all Biblical symbols. In fact, every book in this exhaustively researched, illustrated, reference library is filled with facts showing the amazing connection between the themes and prophecies in the Bible, and the Zodiac story.
For anyone with an interest in Ancient History, Comparative Religion, Bible Prophecy, Astronomy, Astrology, and the hidden meanings behind biblical symbols, there is no other reference work on the market today that even approached this set in depth of scope, or detail. And right now, for a limited time, this entire, amazing reference set can be purchased for a huge savings off the cover price of each book at my Pillar of Enoch Ministry Web site at http://pillar-of-enoch.com/.

“The Amazing Heavenly Anti-Peace Sign Formed in the Zodiac by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse”
Part One - “The Rider on the White Horse:
Symbol of the Gospel of the Kingdom Being Preached”
Copyright © 2007 By Helena Lehman
NOTE: To better understand this material, see my illustrations for this three-part article series by downloading this 4 page PDF article supplement: http://pillar-of-enoch.com/graphics/Anti-Peace-Sign_Four-Horsemen_Article-Illustrations.pdf
Many Bible Prophecy teachers have written about the possible meanings of the cryptic symbolism found in the Book of Revelation. Among these commentaries, much has been written about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse found in Revelation’s sixth chapter. However, none of the more popular commentaries on the Book of Revelation have noted that there is a definite Zodiac connection for many of the symbols in the prophetic language of this book.
As shown in my Language of God Book Series (see http://pillar-of-enoch.com/language_series/), these scriptural tie-ins to the Zodiac Star Gospel story are found throughout the many biblical prophetic scriptures, but they are especially numerous in the Book of Revelation. This suggests that we can apply Sacred Astronomy to determine the dating of key biblical prophecies, just as Enoch and his righteous Sethite descendents did prior to the Great Flood, as shown in the Pillar of Enoch, or Great Pyramid.
One aspect of this Zodiac symbolism that I mentioned in my books is found in the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse who appear consecutively when the first four of seven seals representing various stages of judgment are opened. The only one of the four horsemen I really commented on in my books was the first horseman riding on a white horse, which many Bible Scholars have incorrectly identified as the Antichrist. They have done so because of the apparent similarity to the King of kings on the white horse described toward the end of the Book of Revelation:
“Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war…” “Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations… He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.” -- Rev 19:11, 15-16 (NKJ)
To many Bible Prophecy teachers, it is obvious that the Rider on the White Horse in Revelation Chapter 19 is none other than Yahshua (Jesus) the Messiah returning in Glory to set up His Kingdom on Earth. They therefore think that the less sensationally described rider on the white horse in Revelation, Chapter Six must be an imposter, especially since he appears at the beginning of the Great Tribulation period, when the First Seal is opened:
“Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, ‘Come and see.’ And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.” -- Rev. 6:1-2 (NKJ)
Note that the First Horseman of the Apocalypse, or rider on the white horse is given a crown, and has a bow in his hand, identifying him is an archer. However, his bow has no “arrow,” which is a symbol of war and power. The lack of an arrow therefore suggests that the rider is being sent out during the first half of the seven-year Tribulation. For the first three and a half years, before the Bowls of God’s Wrath are poured out on the Earth, there will be a period of peace all over the world, though this time of peace will be heavily marred by ecological and geological disasters, which will be none other than acts of God’s vengeance on an imperiled Earth.
Uncannily, the white horse, and the crowned archer with the bow can all be found in the starry constellation called Sagittarius, the Centaur-like Archer among the twelve major signs of the Zodiac. As depicted in the Dendera Zodiac, Sagittarius depicts a mounted pharaoh, or king, whose pure white horse’s feet are trampling over a serpent shaped like a boat (indicating the serpent trail of Dan, and the Nephilim), while the arrow in the king’s bow is aimed at the heart of Scorpio, the most Satanic symbol among the twelve signs of the Zodiac! This Archer King represents Yahshua, while the white horse represents His perfection, and His role as an atonement sacrifice for sin.
As shown in my book “The Language of God in the Universe” (see http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Universe/), Sagittarius can be seen as a melding together of that first apocalyptic rider, and the white horse he is riding. In the Gospel in the Stars, this sign perfectly represents the dual-nature of Christ as both a conquering hero (the archer), and an atonement sacrifice (the hoofed, white animal) in one!
There are, in fact, two centaurs in the Zodiac. Sagittarius depicts Christ coming in triumph, while the decan of Virgo called Centaurus portrays Christ as an atonement sacrifice. These two centaurs are Scorpio’s righteous adversaries, and their bows depict God’s meting out of judgment against Satan, and his evil followers. However, these archer’s bows also signify God’s promises, blessings, and mercy, just as the rainbow sign given to Noah, and his kin depicted God’s promise to never destroy the Earth by water again. Interestingly, every rainbow symbolically aims an invisible arrow at God, showing that God would rather kill Himself than renege on any of His promises, just as He did on the Cross!
Now, as shown in my book “The Language of God in Prophecy” (see http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Prophecy/) the prophet Zechariah depicts Yahweh holding a bow associated with the tribe of Judah, and an arrow tied to the Tribe of Joseph/Ephraim that are being used to defeat God’s enemies during the Battle of Armageddon:
“For I have bent Judah, My bow, Fitted the bow with Ephraim, and raised up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece, and made you like the sword of a mighty man. Then the LORD will be seen over them, and His arrow will go forth like lightning. The Lord GOD will blow the trumpet, and go with whirlwinds from the south. The LORD of hosts will defend them… in that day, as the flock of His people. For they shall be like the jewels of a crown, lifted like a banner over His land…” - Zechariah 9:13-16 (NKJ)
Note here that the bow and arrow in Zechariah’s vision are being wielded by God, and those He is defending “shall be like the jewels of a crown.” This Scripture therefore identifies the bow, and the jewels of the crown belonging to the Rider on the White Horse in the Book of Revelation! As shown in my books, Judah prophetically refers to the Jews, especially those in the nation of Israel, while Ephraim signifies the Christians living all over the world, especially those in the United States. Therefore, the Rider on the White Horse appears to be a symbol representing a messenger ensuring that the Gospel of Christ’s Kingdom will be preached to the whole world before the Battle of Armageddon. This heavenly Kingdom will ultimately conquer the Devil’s kingdom in the air, and advance the knowledge of the Kingdom of God within those who become the Tribulation Saints.
Indeed, from the very beginning of the seven-year Great Tribulation, God chooses 144,000 Israelites from the Twelve Tribes of Israel to preach. Then the miracle-working Two Witnesses, and finally a mighty angel will preach the Gospel to the whole world before the fall of the Antichrist’s kingdom known as Babylon the Great:
“Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice… ‘Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.’ And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel…” -- Rev. 7:2-4 (NKJ)
“And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.” -- Rev. 11:3
“Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth -- to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people -- saying with a loud voice, ‘Hear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.’” -- Rev 14:6-7
In the final preceding quote, note that this angel is preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom to the whole world, not just a few people! This angel, and the 144,002 other witnesses of God who will preach during the Tribulation will thus fulfill Christ’s prophecy that:
“…this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” -- Matt. 24:14
This preaching will be faithfully carried out because Yahweh does not want even one of His human children to perish in the Lake if Fire. Therefore, Yah is, and will continue to be merciful to those who accept His Son Yahshua as Savior - even up to the end of the Battle of Armageddon! Hallelu-Yah for that!
In Part Two of this article series, I will show what Zodiac signs the other three Horsemen of the Apocalypse are connected to, and what this connection means.

He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.” -- Rev. 6:1-2 (NKJ)

The LORD of hosts will defend them… in that day, as the flock of His people. For they shall be like the jewels of a crown, lifted like a banner over His land…” - Zechariah 9:13-16 (NKJ)
Note here that the bow and arrow in Zechariah’s vision are being wielded by God, and those He is defending “shall be like the jewels of a crown.” This Scripture therefore identifies the bow, and the jewels of the crown belonging to the Rider on the White Horse in the Book of Revelation! As shown in my books, Judah prophetically refers to the Jews, especially those in the nation of Israel, while Ephraim signifies the Christians living all over the world, especially those in the United States. Therefore, the Rider on the White Horse appears to be a symbol representing a messenger ensuring that the Gospel of Christ’s Kingdom will be preached to the whole world before the Battle of Armageddon. This heavenly Kingdom will ultimately conquer the Devil’s kingdom in the air, and advance the knowledge of the Kingdom of God within those who become the Tribulation Saints.

One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel…” -- Rev. 7:2-4 (NKJ)
“And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.” -- Rev. 11:3
“Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth -- to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people -- saying with a loud voice, ‘Hear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.’” -- Rev 14:6-7
In the final preceding quote, note that this angel is preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom to the whole world, not just a few people! This angel, and the 144,002 other witnesses of God who will preach during the Tribulation will thus fulfill Christ’s prophecy that:
“…this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” -- Matt. 24:14
This preaching will be faithfully carried out because Yahweh does not want even one of His human children to perish in the Lake if Fire. Therefore, Yah is, and will continue to be merciful to those who accept His Son Yahshua as Savior - even up to the end of the Battle of Armageddon! Hallelu-Yah for that!

The Amazing Star Gospel Connection of the USA and Israel, and the Zodiac in Bible Prophecy
Copyright 2007 By Helena Lehman
October 16, 2007 - There is an intriguing lead in determining where the United States figures in prophecy - a lead that no one to my knowledge has ever noted before, but that God has shown me. It stems from the fact that the continental United States consisted of forty-eight States from 1912 until 1959, when Alaska and Hawaii were added. Up until that time, the number of States was the same as the number of Levite cities in Israel, and constellations in the Ancient Mazzaroth! (NOTE: Mazzaroth = Hebrew word for “Zodiac”) Could this be just a coincidence, or a highly significant clue into determining the destiny of the United States? Let’s examine this clue to see what it may be trying to tell us.
Since Alaska and Hawaii are not physically part of the mainland appropriated by the United States, and do not share a common border with the other States in the Union, they are not part of the continental United States. There are therefore still only forty-eight States that make up the mainland United States. Could it be that these forty-eight States are meant to represent the forty-eight Levite cities, and constellations of the ancient Zodiac? One day, God gave me the answer to that question!
It happened while I was praying to God for help in finishing my book “The Language of God in Prophecy” (available for purchase at http://pillar-of-enoch.com, and Amazon.com). While in prayer, I had an amazing vision of the United States, and its role in history. In this vision, I saw a bright blue sky where cool, cloudy Alaska suddenly appeared superimposed over a big silver crescent, and the islands of hot, sunny Hawaii were superimposed over a big yellow Sun shape. (See illustration shown full size in the Adobe PDF file linked to below).
In the next instant, the forty-eight continental States were spread across the heavens beneath the Alaska Moon and Hawaii Sun. When the vision ended, it became clear to me that Alaska was being depicted as an allegorical representation of the Moon, while Hawaii was an allegorical representation of the Sun. Meanwhile, the forty-eight other States stretched out across the sky could only mean one thing: they must represent the forty-eight constellations of the ancient Zodiac!
This vision clearly showed me that the fifty States represent the forty-eight constellations, and the Sun and the Moon that pass through the Zodiac every year! Could this be why 50 white stars superimposed over an azure background represents every State on the US Flag? Uncannily, while researching the history of the US Flag for this book, I discovered that the thirteen stars on the original flag were intended to represent a new constellation! This means that what I saw in a vision was anticipated and symbolized in the US Flag from the beginning.
This suggests that, coupled with the US Flag, my vision is Yahweh’s way of showing all Americans how important the USA is to Him as a nation, and a people “under God.” Incidentally, the original US Flag had thirteen stars on an azure background, and thirteen stripes: seven red, and six white. The stripes stand for the thirteen original colonies, which became the first thirteen States in the Union. Interestingly, the total number of the stripes in one color, 7 and 6, also indicate the year that America declared its independence from Great Britain.

This idea that the United States is a symbolic representation of the Mazzaroth, and of literal and spiritual Israel is also substantiated by the dream that the patriarch Joseph had when he was a boy (Genesis 37:9-11). In that dream vision, Joseph was shown that the people in his life who were signified by the Sun, Moon, and stars would one day bow down to him. Like Joseph’s Israelite family, the United States represents every nation on Earth, and one day every nation will bow their heads to Christ, including the United States! But on another prophetic level, Joseph’s dream vision also suggests that the United States is truly viewed as a literal part of Israel in prophecy by Yahweh God, not just a spiritual part of it.
The association of the numbers thirteen and forty-eight with the United States are prophetically significant in several other ways. First of all, the USA’s connection to the number thirteen signifies that it is symbolically connected to the Sun transiting the Twelve Houses of the Zodiac, as well as to Jacob and the Twelve Tribes of Israel, and Christ and the twelve apostles. Secondly, America’s connection to the number forty-eight indicates that it shares a relationship with the Tribe of Levi, and the Gospel in the Stars.
Allegorically, the Tribe of Levi was the spiritual center of the nation of Israel, and - alongside the Bible and Yahshua (i.e. Jesus) our Messiah - the Gospel in the Stars should be a spiritual guide for the world. Since the number 48 is connected to the Gospel in the Stars, which recognizes 48 constellations, it is another clear indicator that America is meant to be a great source of spiritual light in this dark world. Based on the number of professing Christians in the U.S. population, and the many missionaries these American Christian congregations have sent out into the world, the United States is unquestionably the statistical world leader in both numbers of missionaries and churches.
Through Moses and Aaron, the Tribe of Levi inherited the priesthood. This suggests that, besides being considered a literal part of Israel, the United States is also being reckoned as the Tribe of Levi! This means that America is being called to give more spiritual light to the world than any other nation today outside of the nation of Israel. America, then, is the modern spiritual “navel of the world,” just as Giza in Egypt is the physical “navel of the world.”
As my friend Janice Moore pointed out to me, a navel is a scar left when a baby is severed from its mother by the cutting of the umbilical cord. It is therefore a potent symbol for the Fall of mankind, for this was when Adam and Eve were severed from their personal relationship with God. In addition, a navel is a symbol of our need for spiritual and physical redemption from sin and death. All professing Christians therefore serve to remind the unredeemed sinners in the world that they are damned without Christ. As the greatest bastion of Christianity in today’s world, America is a symbolic navel of remembrance among the nations.
Stay tuned for more articles like this one, which is based entirely on exciting material taken directly from the book “The Language of God in Prophecy,” the last book in the four-book encyclopedic Language of God Book Series, that explores the symbolic Language of God hidden in the Zodiac and the Bible, and the need to understand the connection between the two in order to correctly decipher Bible Prophecy.

October 16, 2007 - There is an intriguing lead in determining where the United States figures in prophecy - a lead that no one to my knowledge has ever noted before, but that God has shown me. It stems from the fact that the continental United States consisted of forty-eight States from 1912 until 1959, when Alaska and Hawaii were added. Up until that time, the number of States was the same as the number of Levite cities in Israel, and constellations in the Ancient Mazzaroth! (NOTE: Mazzaroth = Hebrew word for “Zodiac”) Could this be just a coincidence, or a highly significant clue into determining the destiny of the United States? Let’s examine this clue to see what it may be trying to tell us.
Since Alaska and Hawaii are not physically part of the mainland appropriated by the United States, and do not share a common border with the other States in the Union, they are not part of the continental United States. There are therefore still only forty-eight States that make up the mainland United States. Could it be that these forty-eight States are meant to represent the forty-eight Levite cities, and constellations of the ancient Zodiac? One day, God gave me the answer to that question!
It happened while I was praying to God for help in finishing my book “The Language of God in Prophecy” (available for purchase at http://pillar-of-enoch.com, and Amazon.com). While in prayer, I had an amazing vision of the United States, and its role in history. In this vision, I saw a bright blue sky where cool, cloudy Alaska suddenly appeared superimposed over a big silver crescent, and the islands of hot, sunny Hawaii were superimposed over a big yellow Sun shape. (See illustration shown full size in the Adobe PDF file linked to below).
In the next instant, the forty-eight continental States were spread across the heavens beneath the Alaska Moon and Hawaii Sun.

The Heavenly Signs On My Birthday - What Do They Mean?
By Helena Lehman
August 21, 2007
A while ago, I promised to present an article about the heavenly signs that were present when I was born, and to explain how doing this differs from common Astrology. At last, I’ve found some time to do so, and this article is the result. I hope you will prayerfully read it, and see how the heavenly signs are always in agreement with what the Bible says about the life of every believer.
Viewing our heavenly signs at birth using Sacred Astronomy is different from Astrology in the way that the planets and Zodiac signs are viewed. In fact, contrary to Astrology’s claims, each planet and sign has a godly, biblical, and messianic application. This is an intrinsic part of Sacred Astronomy, but is NEVER mentioned in the Pagan form of Astrology popularized today.
When I look at the heavens visible when I was born using Sacred Astronomy, I can see many distressing and wonderful things that appear to be totally true about me, and my life, and which never appeared in any Natal Horoscope interpretation I had received prior to becoming a born-again Christian in 1987.
First of all, I was surprised to discover that - contrary to conventional Astrology’s claim that I have a Leo Sun sign - that the Sun was centered in Cancer when I was born. I saw many other interesting things in the sky on August 6th, 1957 - with Chicago Illinois at 1:14 AM as a focal point - that I was never told about in conventional applications of Astrology, such as the following:
At the moment of my birth, Taurus was my Ascendant Sign on the eastern horizon, with the Pleiades just above the horizon. Taurus is a powerful sign representing Yahshua’s blood sacrifice on the Cross, and His New Covenant with mankind. Meanwhile, the Pleiades represent the Seven Churches of the Book of Revelation who are counting on the blood of Christ to save them from sin and death forever. Could this mean that I was destined to preach to the Seven Churches about the meaning of our New Covenant with Christ, just as I am now?
In addition, the Moon and the planet Saturn were visible on the opposite side of the Zodiac. There, the Sabbath-Rest planet Saturn was squarely in the satanic sign of Scorpio, probably indicating that my life would see very little rest, or peace. Because of spiritual turmoil, physical illness, and emotional strife, I have never had a truly peaceful, or love-filled existence. As a result, it has been a super challenge staying true to God’s Word, as well as getting my books finished.
However, there was also a three-quarters full Moon hovering under Scorpio’s decan Ophiuchus, the Strong Man who is wrestling with a giant serpent called Serpens. Ophiuchus represents Christ subduing Satan forever on the Cross, and it may indicate that I would accept Christ’s sacrifice for me on the Cross, but also that I would struggle with Satanic attacks on myself throughout life, and ultimately triumph over them because of what God had chosen to accomplish through me in life.
When the Sun rose on my birthday, it appeared in the sign of Cancer, with the planet Uranus in conjunction with the Beehive Cluster in Cancer. Due to this, I believe that the meaning of Cancer is partly connected to my spiritual personality, and level of discipleship to God. Cancer represents a sheep pen filled with believers in Yahweh and His Son - both Jews and Gentiles who love Yahshua, and see each other as fellow workers in God’s everlasting Kingdom of Grace. Now, Uranus is aligned with the Beehive Cluster, which was also called “the Manger,” and represents Christ as the Bread of Life, and Living Water. This suggests that I would symbolically eat and drink in Christ via Communion, and become a true disciple of His, just as I did.
Next door to Cancer in Leo, the red planet of redemption called Mars was in conjunction with Regulus the King Star when I was born. Meanwhile, also in Leo, Mercury, the scribe and prophet planet, and Venus, the symbol of Christ as the Light of the World, and bright Morning Star were in close proximity to each other. Due to the presence of these three celestial bodies in Leo at my birth, the sign of Leo, the roaring Lion representing Christ returning in Wrath and Glory at the end of the Great Tribulation probably also has much to do with my true spiritual accomplishments in life, which now center around writing (as a scribe) and proclaiming (as a prophetess) to others about the fact that Christ is coming soon as a mighty Warrior King who will soon exact the ultimate wrath upon His enemies. It also may indicate that I am now, and was always destined to become a princess in God’s everlasting Kingdom.
On the day that I was born, there was one final sign of importance in the heavens at my birth. This was the planet Jupiter, the Messiah planet appearing in the head region of the sign of Virgo, with the planet Neptune at Virgo’s feet. Virgo represents the virgin Miriam (i.e. Mary) who gave birth to Christ, but also represents Israel, and the True Church. Could this mean that I am destined to be prophetically anointed, and also to anoint the head and feet of the people in the True Church before Christ’s Second Coming, and show them the teachings that God revealed to me in study, prayers, dreams, and visions?
Only God truly knows the answers to the meaning of the signs at my birth, but I firmly believe that His Holy Spirit helped me to write this essay, and to explain it in a way that would show others the only true way to apply Sacred Astronomy to one’s own life - without falling into the pitfalls of false Astrology, with its paganistic lies.
