The purpose of this study is to present how the Astronomy of what one is convinced was the ‘1st Christmas’ helped guide the Wise Men of Persia to Jesus in Bethlehem. One will attempt to explain the Astronomical Alignment that took place on December 25, -2 BC, which one calculates was when the Magi from the Orient came to visit and present themselves before Jesus. This is to argue how such Astronomical Events factored into fulfilled Prophecy in the Past and how it will again in the Future. Tradition holds that the Magi followed the ‘Star’ that led them to the Manger in Bethlehem.
 

Although ‘Romantic’ in its Assumption, that is not what actually occurred. And why is it important to ‘correct’ or reveal what actually occurred? There are several Important Reasons for doing so. First, one’s aim is to provide the actual Astronomical Depiction of what occurred on that early Morning before the Dawn that became known as the Time of ‘Christmas’. By doing so, it will lend Credence and Credibility to Astronomy, as Signs in the Sun, Moon and the Stars are valid, real and authoritative. They complement Biblical Prophecy, as that is what YHVH created such Heavenly Bodies to be for.
 

Then, by depicting and discerning the Astronomy of that Magi Visitation, one will attempt to dispel the misunderstanding of how a Planet or ‘Star’ can just ‘Stop’ in the middle of the Night Sky. Lastly, by validating the Astronomical Array of that Day, it will corroborate one’s other Theory that Jesus was indeed born on September 11, -3 BC. And? In so doing, these 2 Amazing and Astronomical Dates in Human History will triangulate the Year of the Crucifixion of Jesus. And that Year is 32 AD. 

That Date also has unique Astronomy like no other Day in how, on the same Day, one argues that there was both a Solar and Lunar Eclipse, etc. One will not delve into the Pagan Roots or Origin of ‘Christmas’ as there is ample Reasons for why it is, in that regard. It is how the Sun ‘dies’ during the Winter Solstice of the 21st and then takes 3 Days for it to be ‘Born Again’ or then reborn on the Eve of the 25th, etc. 

However, one is of the Opinion that the Enemies of the Cross have attempted, with much success and even within most Churches now in the World, to obfuscate and usurp the real ‘Reason for the Season’. It surely was not about Christmas Trees, Mistletoes, Eggnog, or ‘X-Mas’, etc. The Gift-Giving is perhaps the only overlap there is and most assuredly, Jesus was not ‘Born’ on December 25. Nor were the Magi present at Jesus’ actual Birth. Astronomically, they identified the ‘Star’ that would eventually lead them to Jesus in Bethlehem. 

Revelation 12 Sign 

But one will present the Evidence of how it took about Half a Year to travel and then wait in Jerusalem for the actual Astronomical Alignment to pinpoint the Location of the one born, ‘King of the Jews’. And what was that Astronomical Sign then? One is convinced that it was the Retrograde of Jupiter in the Constellation of Virgo. Essentially, the Magi were following an Iteration of the Revelation 12 Sign. Here below is how the Sign came into play shortly after the Visitation of Jesus by the Magi. 

HEROD: -2 BC
Once the False King Herod realized the Threat that Jesus posed, he acted upon the Astronomy that the Magi discerned. Herod had all the Male Judean Babies slaughtered after the Magi departed back to Persia. Lucifer attempted to keep the Genesis 3:15 Promise from occurring. King Herod became the embodiment of the Red Dragon that sought to devour the Man-Child, the True King of the Jews born of the Virgin, i.e., Virgo.
 

BODY OF CHRIST: 2017 AD
And how that Sign has played a Prophetic Role in alerting the Church Age Believers and Followers of Jesus of the pending Rapture Event, i.e., the Revelation 12 Sign of September 23, 2017, etc. Perhaps it was a 7 Year Sign in how in the 8th Year, the Rapture Typology will have occurred.

ANTICHRIST: 2029 AD?
The Revelation 12 Sign will also signal when a future Type of an Evil and Satanic Herod, False King of the Jews, i.e., the coming AntiChrist will seek to slay the Man-Child of Israel. This is when the Red Dragon Motif seeks to devour the People of the Messiah as the Woman gives Birth. However, it will be at that Place and Time that YHVH provides a Safe Haven for the Jewish Remnant in the Wilderness. 

The following Segment will delve more deeply into the Future Iteration of the Revelation 12 Sign. One is convinced that the Sign will have its Prophetic, Astronomical and Literal Fulfillment at the Mid-Point of Daniel’s 70th Week of Years, or the Time of Jacob’s Trouble. First, one must note that the Day Counts are based on the imaginary lines that the Constellation Motifs in the Night Sky are configured to. That is to say, however, that they can serve as Ley Lines, Astronomically and then as a Reference Point from given Stars.
 

And with that, one can suggest then a Place and Time, as Markers based on where and when the Planets, the Moon and the Sun relate to them. However, note that on May 14, 2029, the Planet of the Messiah, Jupiter will be directly Dead Center in the Womb Area of Virgo. The ‘Womb’ Area of the Constellation of Virgo is based on the ‘Square’ Delineation made-up by the Stars: Spica, Heze, Minelauva and Porrima.
 

As to the Revelation 12 Sign being reconfigured on Passover 2029. One should have been more precise. It is only to note the Year, in general, but specifically in September. The Sign starts to constitute itself, beginning when it enters the Constellation of Virgo’s ‘Womb’ on November 1, 2028. That is what starts the Sign, gradually. But it is from this Time-Frame that will include Passover of 2029 that then the Sign culminates to its approximate configuration of what the Revelation 12 Sign depicts.

Configuration of the Revelation 12 Sign in 2029
At that Time and Place, the Sun in the Head Region, Jupiter is being birthed-out, and the Moon at Feet of Virgo, etc. Here below is the specific Day Counts of the various and notable Time Markers that leads to the Fulfillment in 2029. This is based on the 12-Year Cycle of Jupiter.
_________________________
 

-November 1, 2028: Jupiter enters Virgo’s ‘Womb’.

-December 20, 2028: Exits Virgo Womb – Winter Solstice

-February 14, 2029: Jupiter Retrograde begins - travels back into Virgo (9 Months)

-April 1, 2029: Jupiter enters the ‘Womb’ of Virgo (Passover) – Mid Point of Tribulation?

-June 20, 2029: Jupiter reverses Retrograde – Summer Solstice

-August 20, 2029: ‘Birthed’ out of Virgo

-September 11, 2029: Revelation 12 Alignment configures
 

Note that on May 14, 2028, Jupiter is still in Leo but headed towards Virgo. I should have put all this in the Article, but one is not sure why it was not. I am pretty sure I had noted the Schedule but perhaps it is in another Article, and I cannot remember which one. But yes, the Sun is in Virgo in the Month of September. According to Hebcal.com, Rosh HaShanah in 2029 starts at Sundown, September 9, 2029 and ends on September 11, 2029. It is exactly when the Revelation 12 Alignment configures. Interesting. The 'Sign' will not configure again for another 12 Years, in 2041. 

Here is one’s Rationale, based on one’s Theory of why the Start of Daniel’s 70th Week of Years could start in the Fall of 2025. As you know, one’s Theory is that on the March 31/April 1 Passover of 2029, is when the False Jewish Messiah will halt the Daily Sacrifices. The False Prophet will then erect the Golden Idol, that will make the Desolation of the Sanctuary by its Abomination, etc. This possible Scenario is what takes precedence over the Revelation 12 Sign needing to be configure, precisely on that Date. How so?
 

Consider that the Warning to flee to the Wilderness by Jesus is what starts the Evacuation of the Remnant Believing Jews, as an Exodus '2.0'. One is conjecturing that once they are safe and secured, away from the ‘Flood’ of the ‘Red Dragon’, that the Revelation 12 Sign culminates at this Time, on September 11, 2029. This will be exactly a 3 Year Anniversary to what is one’s other Theory, that of Jesus coming back, precisely on September 11, 2032. That Day coincides with the ‘Sabbath of Return’. It will be just a few Days after Rosh Hashanah of that Year. Again, it is just a Calculation.
 

For Context, remember that just before the projected Half-Way Time Marker, that one strongly suggests will be the Passover of 2029, is when the AntiChrist receives a Moral Wound and is ‘resurrected’. This Event will embolden him to Genocide the Jews as perhaps, it will be a Devout Religious Jew that will have Assassinated him. So, to reiterate, one is seeing that the Abomination of Desolation, in relation to the Revelation 12 Sign of that Year in 2029, is when it begins, gradually to configure, Astronomically later. The Sign reaches its Alignment, fully in September, as noted.
 

Signs Compliment Scripture

And note that Astronomy is just a Complimentary part of the Prophetic Tapestry. Consider what it is. This is seen in how the Magi still had to rely on the Word of YHVH. This is demonstrated when they reached Jerusalem and had interaction with King Hared. He had to defer and consult the Elders of Zion to actually pinpoint the Place of where the Messiah was to come from, Bethlehem, the House of Bread. It was the Town King David was also born from and the Tribe of the Lion, Judah, etc. But here is also another Biblical Principle that is rather Sad and that even Jesus rebuked the Elder for.

Just because Prophecy and Truth is revealed and written in the Sacred Scriptures, it takes Belief and Volition to accept it, believe it and act upon it. Israel’s Teachers failed at this. To this Day, the Rabbinical Jews skip over Daniel and Isaiah 53, for example. The Elders of Zion should have realized the Sign was to have been accomplished by the Appearing of the Magi. Gentiles instead are who were searching for the King of the Jews`. It should have alerted them of the Time. They knew of the Place from the Prophecy, etc. Yet what did the False King of the Jews do instead?

As the Magi waited and then got Scriptural Confirmation, were then promoted by the Retrograde to Jupiter in Virgo, they traveled to Bethlehem. Instead of doing the same, King Herod ordered the massacre of all the New-Borns in and around Bethlehem. This is when an Angel of YHVH appeared to Joseph in a Dream and was instructed to go to Egypt. And with the 3 Main Provision gifted by the Magi to Jesus, it would have been more than enough to cover their Stay in Egypt. 

So, one must realize that the New Testament does describe a fair number of Details that involve the Magi from Persia. They had their interactions with the False ‘King of the Jews’, Herod as they embarked on their Journey from either Susa or Babylon. And surely they were not just 3 of them as the Trek took Time, Money and Resources. Since they were called the ‘Court Astrologers’, they were considered the ‘Ambassadors’ of a King or Kingdom on that Day. Such were highly respected, protected and provided for. So how long did a Trek from Babylon take to reach Jerusalem? Consider how long it took for Nehemiah to go from Babylon to Jerusalem in similar traveling circumstances.

‘He had begun his Journey from Babylon on the 1st Day of the 1st Month, and he arrived in Jerusalem on the 1st Day of the 5th Month, for the Gracious Hand of his God was on him’. -Ezra 7:9
 

Apparently, the Trek from Babylon or Susa to Jerusalem took 5 Months or 150 Days as it was 666 Nautical Miles away. Interestingly, this same number of Months or Days will play a significant role during the Tribulation. It will deal with the Physiological and Astronomical Effects of the Mark of the Beast that most Humans will implement into their Body Genome. There will be dreadful Astronomical Catastrophes, so severe that it will kill a Multitude of People all over Earth. So, the Trek from Babylon would then be approximately the same Time that later, the Magi would also take to reach Judea. This would mean that if Jesus was born on September 11, -3 BC, due to the Triple Conjunction of King Planet Jupiter with the King Star Regulus in the King Sign of Leo, then the Magi reached Jerusalem in the Month of March. 

Sign over Bethlehem
Perhaps, one wonders if the Date occurred or coincides with the Spring Equinox of March 20. Having this approximate Time-Frame would then mean that the Magi stayed in Jerusalem to witness the 2 other Jupiter Conjunctions in Leo that confirmed the Birth of the ‘Lion-King’, Jesus. And it was then another 9 Months that would pass before traveling to Bethlehem, due South. What prompted their Trek was that Jupiter then ‘appeared’ to ‘stand still’ over the Sky, right in-line with Bethlehem. So, what precisely was depicted in the Cosmology after Jesus’ Birth?
 

The Astronomical Ley-Lines not only identified the Man-Child, born of a Virgin, i.e., Virgo, but even the Date and when were from the Direction of the House of YHVH, which is also referred to as the House of Bread. This Date was when the Bread of Life, became Flesh; Human, etc. As noted, Jupitar was the ‘Star’ the Magi focused on determining the Place and Time. The Depiction of the Cosmic Configuration was precisely on ‘Christmas Day’, December 25, -2 BC. It occurred at 4:44am Local Time as the Magi came from Jerusalem to Worship the King of Astronomy in Bethlehem. 

It corresponds to the Day the Magi from Persia came to find the King born of the Jews. It ‘Stopped’ on that Day, appearing to be stationary before coming-out of its Retrograde. What was striking was that right at the Galactic Meridian Ley-Line, the Constellation of Crux or the Cross aligned perfectly in a Vertical Alignment with Jupiter in Virgo and the Man-Child, Coma. This is where the Astronomy comes into play as the Southern Cross rose over the Horizon of Bethlehem.

The ‘Cross’ was in-line with Jupiter that also reached the Maximum of its Arch across the Night Sky and was also in-line with Coma Berenices. In Ancient Times it was the Depiction of a Woman sitting and holding-up a Man-Child, etc. And amazingly, the Planet of the Messiah was in Phi Ratio to Coma. Looking South over the Horizon of Bethlehem, the King Planet was in Virgo, in Retrograde. The Constellation of the Centaur piercing the Wolf, Lupus signified the ‘Victim Sacrificed’. 

It foreshadowed the Prophetic Fulfilment of Jesus who would be pierced and the Victim of a Slaughter at the Cross of Calvary in 32 AD, based on this Data Point. The entire Virgo Constellation is within the Triangulation of the 3 Stars of Perseus, Leo and Scorpio. The Proportion touches upon the King Star in Leo, Regulus and Crux, the Cross at the threshold of the Horizon in Bethlehem just before the Sun broke the New Dawn. 

Remember that the Magi were the Court Astrologers of the Persian Empire. In Ancient Times, such People were considered the ‘Scientists’ of the Day. Also, before the Enlightenment, Astrology and Astronomy were fused together. Astronomy is the definition of Astronomical Occurrences. Astrology is ascribing Meaning to such Celestial Events. No doubt, such Men were of the Remnants of the ‘School of Daniel’. Because of the Scriptures taught and the Signs ascertained, that accompany Biblical Prophecy, the Wise Men of Persia came to recognize when the Messiah of Israel was to visit Earth, as a Man born. 

Nemesis Effect
And perhaps in their Honor, YHVH ascribed 3 Planets at this Time and Place in their corresponding Celestial Array: Pluto, Mars and Venus. These 3 Planets could have been ascribed to the iconic Motif of there being 3 Wise Men. Most likely, there was an entire Entourage. It is also based on how many Gifts were presented to Jesus at the House the Family lived in while still in Bethlehem. 

Now to be transparent, Astronomical Signs do come with a Dichotomy of Meaning. How so? Realize that there is what one calls the ‘Nemesis Effect’. It is how the very same Sign can be attributed to its Opposite. Consider the 3 Planet that appear to ‘Witness’ this Christmas Astronomical Array or Sign, pointing to the Messiah having been born. One attributes them to be in ‘Honor’ of the 3 Wise Men that sought to discover the True King of the Jews.
 

They came on a Quest to wonder, wait and worship the Time and Place where the very Creator of the Universe pierced into His Time, Space and Matter, etc. Yet, one can likewise ascribe how Pluto, for example, is at the Heel of the Virgin. It is as if Virgo is crushing the Head of what Pluto also represents, Death and the Lord of Death, Lucifer. This prophetically echoes the Genesis 3:15 Proto Evangelium.
 

It is how the Messiah, the Seed of the Woman would crush the Head of the Serpent who introduced Death in Eden and into the Genetic Creation of Humanity, and their bodies, etc. Then there is the Planet Mars in Scorpio. The Planet is associated with the God of War and how Scorpio is attributed to be the Enemy. So, here one has the interpretation that Jesus came to make War with the Enemy, Lucifer and how Scorpio has, as a Head-Wound, being crushed also by the Heel of Ophiuchus. 

It is precisely where the Planet Venus is at. And how in 1 Interpretation, Venus being the Star of the Dawn is also ascribed to Lucifer. But it is Ophiuchus, a Type of Christ that is wrestling with the Serpent that seeks to usurp the Crown or Kingdom, Corona Borealis, etc. So, this is how Astronomy plays a role I the Interpretation of Prophecy, since Genesis 1:14.

‘And GOD said, Let there be Lights in the Firmament of the Heaven to divide the Day from the Night; and let them be for 

1. Signs, 

2. and for Seasons, 

3. and for Days, 

4. and Years. 

This is what the Magi saw and ascertained as they approached Jesus, approximately 15 Months later from the other amazing Astronomical Array of His Birth. This is based on the Astronomical Evidence and Celestial Alignments leading-up to September 11, -3 BC that one highly suggests was and is the real date of Jesus Christ’s Birth. 

Magi of The Master

If indeed Jesus was born on September 11, -3 BC, based on the Astronomy that led up to that Birth, then it would corroborate the Timeline that corresponds to the Crucifixion occurring in 32 AD. The following are some Year Calculations based on the Age of Jesus, being 33 Years Old when Crucified in 32 AD. The following Date Calculations surmise the validity of the Timelines that corroborate the Lifespan of Jesus. 

If Jesus was born on September 11, -3 BC to December 25, -2 BC Visitation of Magi
= 1 Year, 3 Months 14 Days

= 67 Weeks 1 Day

= 470 Days

_____________________
 

From December 25, 2 BC Visitation of Magi to November 1, 28 AD start of Ministry

= 28 Years, 10 Months 7 Days

= 10,539 Days

_____________________

If Crucifixion was on April 14, 32 AD
- 1260 Days = November 1, 28 AD Read Jubilee Decree (Start of Public Ministry)

_____________________

If Jesus was born on September 11, -3 BC to April 14, 32 AD
= 33 Years, 7 Months 3 Days

= 12,269 Days

Thus, see how Astronomy plays an Important Part in confirming, deciphering and validating Biblical Prophecy. And when will this future Revelation 12 Sign Event occur? Based on one’s Fall 2025 to Fall 2032 Tribulation Timeline that will be in the Year 2029. And? By some Calculations it is the beginning of a Shemitah Cycle. It is also when Jupiter will have its 12 Year Retrograde Cycle occur again. And by the way, it will culminate on September 11, 2032 AD.
 

So, it was the King Planet of the Messiah, Jupiter and its Retrograde Cycles that helped determine the Place and Time of when and where the King of the Jews was to be born and resided. It is also important to note that Jupiter’s Retrograde takes approximately 9 Months to complete. This is why the Magi, once they identified the ‘Sign’ or Star in the East, calculated when they had to then travel to Jerusalem.
