“Behold, he comes with clouds and every eye shall see him.” (Rev. 1:7) The Son (sun) is the “light of the world” and is seen by everyone.
The language of the Bible has a way of leading unsuspecting readers into thinking it was recording human historical events when, in reality, it was referring to cosmology, myths of ancient Egypt, the Tree of Life, The Book of the Living, and the patterns of the stars. A general overview serves to explain how the Bible's allegorical language reflects a superstitious fear of darkness. This thread serves as an introduction to a series of articles on the bible and its hidden origin of astrology and cosmology.
"There shall be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars." - Jesus Christ, Luke 21:25
The Bible also describes an astrological sign called the "Morning Star" which is a reference to the planet Venus.
"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright MORNING STAR." (Rev. 22:16) - Venus in the Dog Star
Jesus was born under the end of the age of Aries (the ram or lamb) and this may explain why he called himself the "lamb of God." By the time Jesus began his ministry, it was the beginning of the age of Pisces (the fish, the Church age). The sign of the fish has special significance to Christianity because the sign of the fish has been known throughout the millennia to be the sign of Christianity.
Jesus recruited "fishermen" as disciples to make them "fishers of men."

The Bible is filled with astrological information. Christ had 12 disciples and their were 12 tribes of Israel, which are associated with the 12 signs of the zodiac. In the book, Kabbalistic Astrology it is explained that the 12 sons of Jacob were representative of the 12 signs of the zodiac and that the personality traits of each son were used to describe each Sun Sign we know today.
In the Book of Revelation 4:7 it reads, "And the first animal was like a lion (symbol of Leo), and the second animal was like a bull (symbol of Taurus), and the third animal had a face of a man (symbol of Aquarius, the water bearing man), and the fourth animal was like a flying eagle (ancient symbol of Scorpio)"
The World card in the Tarot deck shows these four symbols that are described in the Book of Revelation. Look in each corner of this card. These signs described in the book of revelation are the 4 Fixed Signs of the Zodiac.
It is commonly considered from the many New Testament pronouncements of astrological doctrine, that the Twelve Disciples were chosen, each to represent a different one of the twelve fundamental types and qualities with a ruling Trinity of the central Sun (the Father) whose spiritual and intellectual light (the Holy Spirit) reflected by the Moon (the mother) flowed out through these twelve apostles into all the world-representing humanity divided into its twelve basic types.
Aries: Peter, the fiery, impulsive, changeable, pioneering leader, who eventually became the rock upon which was founded the New Church "of the Lamb." (Initiating: inspirational)
Taurus: Simon Zelotes, the dogmatic, determined zealot; who was concerned with property and finances, rebelled against the payment of taxes, and received from Jesus the admonition - "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's." (Fixed: materialistic)
Gemini: James, "the lesser." Slow to accept the authenticity of the Messiah, but became the eloquent preacher of the church in Jerusalem, and an active evangelist and exhorter. (Mutable: intellectual)
Cancer: Andrew, the sympathetic homebody, a follower of John the Baptist, whose first thought when he discovered the Messiah was to run quickly and fetch his brother Simon. (Initiating: sympathetic)
Leo: John, the most beloved apostle. (Fixed: inspirational)
Virgo: Philip, always precise, calculating, enquiring, and practical. (Mutable: materialistic)
Libra: Bartholomew-Nathaniel, the innocently pure one "in whom there is no guile." The tactful, persuasive evangelist. (Initiating: intellectual)
Scorpio: Thomas, the doubting skeptic, yet bold and courageous. (Fixed: sympathetic)
Sagittarius: James, the great teacher, who with Peter and John became the spiritual leaders of the early church: the three fire sign types cooperating. (Mutable: inspirational)
Capricorn: Matthew, the tax gatherer, the politician, the one in authority in the governing seat in Rome. (Initiating: materialistic)
Aquarius: Thaddeus-Jude, who considered the lot of the peasant, and sought to better the living and working conditions of the masses; and who interrogated Jesus at the Last Supper as to how he would manifest himself. (Fixed: intellectual)
Pisces: Judas Iscariot, who when he succumbed to temptation suf- fered severe pangs of remorse. (Mutable: sympathetic)
"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace." (Eccl. 3:1-8)
Around the year 1999 - 2012 A.D., was the end of the age of Pisces The world has then enter the new age, the age of Aquarius (the Water-Bearer). It should be obvious to Christians that the identity of this "Water-Bearer" is the one who (1) came from the waters of Galilee (2) baptized with water (3) changed water into wine (4) walked on the water (5) washed the feet of others with water (6) calmed the ocean waters (7) gives living water (8) says we must be born of water (9) drank the cup from the Father.

ASTRO-THEOLOGY an Interview
www.taroscopes.com/highwind...view.html
According to Astro-theologian Michael Tsarion there is a great story of the human race that lies mostly buried in the unconscious slumber of men and women, although the story line continues to unfold as every hour passes upon the Earth. It is the story of humans and the natural world in which we live. It is not history or even her-story, it's our story.
Tsarion says that thousands of years ago, in the great society of Egypt [KMT] that birthed the legendary Stellar and Lunar cults, men and women lived together as equals. They spent their lives striving for balance within themselves and with each other. To them the human body and consciousness were sacred and the inner questions of who and what they were reflected outward in their everyday lives. Living on the earth was a spiritual act and what we today consider mundane and ordinary, everyday reality, was understood by them to be infused with psychic energy and rich with personal meaning.
In their understanding, that which was created within the human psyche was partially reflected outward in the material world. The cycles of the human body and the cycles of nature were revered and studied in great depth as a means of divination and insight into their individual quests for clarity and understanding. The way they lived together and interacted was symbolic of their inward journey through the great challenges of life on the path to wisdom.
Today, most of us realize that we are out of balance within ourselves, with each other and with the planet. Other forces and other agendas have cut off the feminine and have driven reverence for the cycles of life and nature into a place of suspicion and domination. Without the wisdom of the other the male principle continues to divide and conquer the planet, paving it over for the mechanical progeny of his wounded ego.
The way we now reflect outward, the way we create our habitat here on this Earth, is an indicator of our internal crisis of spirit. Some believe that in prayer or by studying indigenous traditions we might gain clues as to what's not working within ourselves. Although we are on the right track in thinking that something must change, we are still mostly looking up to an inflated male ego creation (God) as the one who can force a solution. According to Tsarion the missing piece was left behind 10,000 years ago in the Garden of Eden.
In the subsequent rewriting of this myth, the new authors condemned nature and the feminine principle. The liberating knowledge of the male and female was twisted into punishing retribution of the knowledge of good and evil. Women and nature were vilified and everyone was thrown out of balance, out of the Garden. It seems like the game was and still is about cutting off the male from the female and the human being from nature. All of our related psychic stress and searching is then covered up by artificial doses of material substitutions, religious dogma and rules.
But fortunately, the human spirit is strong. Most of us want to reconnect. We just don't know where to start. Tsarion says the place to start is right here at home. Where we live. Inside and out. We have made an intellectual journey back to where we started 10,000 years ago — now it's time to get our house back in order.
