the STORY III
TO
READ THE STORY OF THE JEWISH MESSIAH YOU WILL NEED TO START WITH
CHAPTER I. WHY? BECAUSE THIS 12 PART STORY WRITTEN IN THREE CHAPTERS FOLLOWS
THE JEWISH CALENDAR WHICH BEGINS IN SEPTEMBER (BEGINNING WITH VIRGO AND
ENDING IN LEO). IT IS TOLD MONTH BY MONTH THROUGH THE HEBREW 'MAZZAROTH'
- (A CROWN OF 12 STARS IN THE SKY) - AND THE ANCIENT NAMES OF THE STARS
THEMSELVES (PRE CHRISTIAN ERA) WHICH OLD TESTAMENT SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES
CONFIRM.

The HEAVENS DECLARE the GLORY
of GOD
PSALMS
19:2-6
2 The heavens declare the
glory of God; the sky proclaims its builder's craft. 3 One day to the next
conveys that message; one night to the next imparts that knowledge. 4 There
is no word or sound; no voice is heard;5
Yet their report goes forth through all the
earth, their message, to the ends of the world.
God has pitched there a tent for the sun; 6 it comes forth
like a bridegroom from his chamber, and like an athlete joyfully runs its
course …..

Beit Alpha, Israel. Signs of
the Mazzeroth (read left to right)
starting with Virgo and ending
with Leo, surround the central
chariot of the Sun. 12
Constellations of the Zodiac,
tell the story of the coming
Jewish Messiah
THE ANCIENT HEBREW 'MAZZAROTH'
TELLS A REMARKABLE STORY IN THE SKY. THIS STORY IN THE STARS PRE DATES
THE CHRISTIAN ERA, YET THE STORY IS ABOUT THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH, THE
JEWISH MESSIAH. ACCORDING TO THE OLD TESTAMENT, IT WAS WRITTEN IN
THE HEAVENS BY THE HAND OF GOD. WHAT DOES 'MAZZAROTH MEAN? IT IS
A CIRCULAR 'BAND' OR 'CROWN' OF STARS DIVIDED INTO 12 CONSTELLATIONS (12
TRIBES OF ISRAEL) CALLED THE ZODIAC. ('the way' or 'the path')
+
Today the study of the
stars is called 'ASTRONOMY. (Under no circumstances does the word 'Mazzaroth'
or 'Zodiac' originate in 'Astrology'. Astrology is a deception by
the Serpent of Genesis, whose intention is to put 'strange gods' in
front of the story of 'Salvation History', the story of Him who Saves.
For more information, see 'ASTRONOMY VS ASTROLOGY' below written
by a Catholic Scripture Scholar BELOW)

MARK 13: 22
22 False messiahs and false
prophets will arise and will perform signs and wonders in order to mislead,
if that were possible, the elect. 23 Be watchful! I have told it all to
you beforehand.

HOW
DO BIRTH STONES FIT INTO THE 12 SIGNS?
'in the order of their
birth'.
EXODUS 28:9-12 - God's instructions
to Moses for Aaron
9 "Get two onyx stones
and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel: 10 six of their
names on one stone, and the other six on the other stone,
in the order of their birth. 11 As a
gem cutter engraves a seal, so shall you have the two stones engraved
with the names of the sons of Israel and then
mounted in gold filigree work. 12 Set these two stones on the shoulder
straps of the ephod as memorial stones of the sons of Israel. Thus Aaron
shall bear their names on his shoulders as a reminder before the LORD.
+
BREASTPIECE OF DECISION
God continues to instruct Moses,
using 12 stones each believed to have the attributes of that tribe. The
stones were often identified by their country or origin and various
bible translations do not always identify the same stones or placements.
(i.e. some translations include turquoise (Turkey), some do not.)
+
15 "The breastpiece of decision
you shall also have made, embroidered like the ephod with gold thread and
violet, purple and scarlet yarn on cloth of fine linen twined. 16 It is
to be square when folded double, a span high and a span wide 17 On it you
shall mount four rows of precious stones: in the first
row, a carnelian, a topaz and an emerald; 18
in the second row, a garnet, a sapphire and
a beryl; 19 in the third
row, a jacinth, an agate and an amethyst;
20 in the
fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx and a jasper.These
stones are to be mounted in gold filigree work, 21 twelve
of them to match the names of the sons of Israel,
each stone engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes."

PRAY THE BIRTHSTONE ROSARY
Instead of wearing your birthstone
as jewelry, pray your prayers on a rosary dedicated to the stone given
your month or the month of a loved one. Father Joe suggested dedicating
and praying a birthstone rosary of a loved one or family member (living
or dead). How much more personal is this response than jewelry. We are
brought into history with this prayer action. The birthstones used here
were inspired by the scripture above and standardized and designated by
the American Gem Society in 1938.
+
ONE MONTH AT A TIME
The story in the stars will
be put together one month at a time, starting with the Hebrew calendar,
Septermber VIRGO (the Virgin) and ending with August, LEO (the Lion/Chirst).
We were all born under the sign of the CROSS, but as we continue our journey,
month by month, through the sky, give the stars back to God who created
them, note His glory and His story in each of the 12 constellations.

2 O LORD, our Lord,
how awesome is your name through all the earth! You have set your majesty
above the heavens! 3 Out of the mouths of babes and infants you have
drawn a defense against your foes, to silence enemy and avenger. 4
When I see your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and stars that
you set in place-- 5 What are humans
that you are mindful of them, mere mortals that you care for them?

9 As I watched, Thrones
were set up and the Ancient One took his throne. His clothing was snow
bright, and the hair on his head as white as wool; His throne was flames
of fire, with wheels of burning fire. 10 A surging stream of fire flowed
out from where he sat; Thousands upon thousands were ministering to him,
and myriads upon myriads attended him. The court was convened, and the
books were opened. 11 I watched, then, from the first of the arrogant words
which the horn spoke, until the beast was slain and its body thrown into
the fire to be burnt up.

-----==PSALM 46:4-6==-----
4
The LORD of hosts is with us; our stronghold is the God of Jacob. Selah

it at break of day.

3
Our God comes and will not be silent! Devouring fire precedes, storming
fiercely round about. 4 God summons the heavens above and the earth to

who made a covenant with me by sacrifice." 6 The heavens proclaim divine
justice, for God alone is the judge. Selah
AURIGA
(the shepherd)
ANCIENT
IMAGE: AURIGA: A gentle shepherd holding and protecting a lamb in
his left hand. In some images there are two lambs, one facing the shepherd,
the other watching the mighty figures of TAURUS and ORION. In his
right hand he holds a reign, freeing the 'fish people' (people of God).
the bands are symbolic of the bands in PISCES ('Fish'). The horn
of TAURUS pierces the foot of the shepherd *EL NAITH* ('Wounded' or
'Slain'). AURIGA is the Hebrew word for 'shepherd'.
-----==JOHN 10:11,14==-----
11 I am the good shepherd.
A good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 A hired man, who is
not a shepherd and whose sheep are not his own, sees a wolf coming and
leaves the sheep and runs away, and the wolf catches and scatters them.
13 This is because he works for pay and has no concern for the sheep. 14
I am the good shepherd, and I know mine and mine know me, 15 just as the
Father knows me and I know the Father; and I will lay down my life for
the sheep.
+
-----==ISAIAH 40:10-11==-----
10
Here comes with power the Lord GOD, who rules by his strong arm; Here is
his reward with him, his recompense before him. 11 Like a shepherd he feeds
his flock; in his arms he gathers the lambs, Carrying them in his bosom,
and leading the ewes with care.

THE POLAR STAR IN
DRACO
Thousands
of years ago, the *POLAR STAR* (*POLARIS* or *NORTH STAR*) was in the constellation
DRACO (Dragon - devil). But slowly it has moved over to the constellation
CEPHEUS (Enthroned King) and now rests under his foot! This star is also
called *CYNOSURA* ('The Center' or 'The Center of the Constellations').
*POLARIS* or *POLAR STAR* is "nearly in a direct line with the axis of
the Earth's rotation "above" the North Pole — the north celestial pole
— Polaris stands almost motionless on the sky, and all the stars of the
Northern sky appear to rotate around it" In the year 2100, it will be even
more clearly aligned than it is now. (Wikipedia)
URSA
MAJOR (greater sheepfold)
ANCIENT
IMAGE: A sheepfold with lambs inside and trailing out of the sheep
gate towards *BOOTES'. (The handle of the dipper or long tail of the bear)
The Hebrews called this constellation *ASH* ('The Assembled'). Called
*AL-NAISH* (Arabia: 'The Ordered' or 'Assembled Together')
Brightest star at the gate *DUBEH* (Arab: "A Herd of Animals') .
Inside the sheepfold: *MERACH* (Hebrew: 'The Flock') and in (Arabic:
'The Purchased'). *PHACED* (Arabic: 'Visited', 'Guarded',
'Numbered'). *TALETA* (Little Lamb).The line of stars moving out from
the sheepfold also carry names that identify this constellation as a sheepfold.
These 'sheep' are moving towards the constellation *BOOTES* (Christ holding
the cycle). From *DUBEH* they move outward - * ALIOTH* (Hebrew:
'She Goat' or 'The Ewe'), *MISAR* 'Separate' or 'Small') , *AL-COR* (Arabic:
'The Lamb'),
-----==MICAH 2:12-13==-----
12
I will gather you, O Jacob, each and every one, I will assemble all the
remnant of Israel; I will group them like a flock in the fold, like a herd
in the midst of its corral; they shall not be thrown into panic by men.
13 With a leader to break the path they shall burst open the gate
and go out through it; Their king shall go through before them, and the
LORD at their head.
+
-----==ISAIAH 40:11==-----
11 Like a shepherd he feeds
his flock; in his arms he gathers the lambs, Carrying them in his bosom,
and leading the ewes with care. 12 Who has cupped in his hand the
waters of the sea, and marked off the heavens with a span? Who has held
in a measure the dust of the earth, weighed the mountains in scales and
the hills in a balance?

-----==EZEKIEL 34:15-17==----
15 I myself will pasture my sheep; I myself will
give them rest, says the Lord GOD. 16 The lost I will seek out, the
strayed I will bring back, the injured I will bind up, the sick I will
heal (but the sleek and the strong I will destroy), shepherding them rightly.
17 As for you, my sheep, says the Lord GOD, I will judge between
one sheep and another, between rams and goats.
ARGO
(the ship)
ANCIENT
IMAGE: ARGO (Hebrew: 'The Company of Travelers') ARGO is
the grand and glorious ship that symbolizes the end of the journey, bringing
the travelers, home to their destination, Zion.. The head of the ship is
the head of a Lion. And the star names tells the story: *CANOPUS* ('The
Possession of Him that Cometh'), *ASMIDISKA* (The Released Who Travel').
On the hull: *MARKAB* (Hebrew: 'Returning From Afar'). Two more
stars, *SOHEIL* (Arabic: 'The Desired') and*SUBILON (Arabic: 'The
Branch') brings us back to the first constellation in the story of
the Jewish Messiah, VIRGO who holds a branch (Christ).

-----==GENESIS 7:1==-----
1 Then the LORD said to Noah:
"Go into the ark, you and all your household, for you alone in this age
have I found to be truly just.
+
-----==ISAIAH 51:11==-----
11 Those whom the LORD has
ransomed will return and enter Zion singing, crowned with everlasting joy;
They will meet with joy and gladness, sorrow and mourning will flee.
+
-----==ISAIAH 60:2-5,8,9==-----
2 See, darkness covers the
earth, and thick clouds cover the peoples; But upon you the LORD shines,
and over you appears his glory. 3 Nations shall walk by your light, and
kings by your shining radiance. 4 Raise your eyes and look about; they
all gather and come to you: Your sons come from afar, and your daughters
in the arms of their nurses. 5 Then you shall be radiant at what you see,
your heart shall throb and overflow, For the riches of the sea shall be
emptied out before you, the wealth of nations shall be brought to you.
... 8 What are these that fly along like clouds, like doves to their cotes?
9 All the vessels of the sea are assembled, with the ships of Tarshish
in the lead, To bring your children from afar with their silver and gold,
In the name of the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, who has glorified
you.
+
-----==ISAIAH 4:2==----
2 On that day, The branch of the LORD will
be luster and glory, and the fruit of the earth will be honor and splendor
for the survivors of Israel.
'DIPPERS', 'URSAS' and 'SHEEPFOLDS'
We are most familiar with the term Little Dipper /
Ursa Minor and Big Dipper / Ursa Major. It is believed the term 'Dipper'
came from the time of the covered wagons traveling across America as the
constellation appeared to be dippers with long handles. The ancient term
Ursa (Bear or 'The Strong') represents a non-existent critter with a long
tail. It is believed this term came from Mythology but the ancient star
names in these constellations suggest something totally different.

HYDRA
(fleeing serpent)
ANCIENT
IMAGE: HYDRA the sea dragon, (Hebrew: 'The Abhorred') is
a long, twisting serpent/snake taking up 1/3 of the heavens. with
one loop in his body next to the forepaws of LEO. He slithers between the
constellation LEO and ARGO (ship, see above). (Other Devil Constellations
are DRACO and SERPENS). The constellation LEO is about to pounce on HYDRA
as told in Genesis. HYDRA is fleeing. CORVUS (bird / raven) is pecking
on the snake and a cup CRATER is falling off of the snake. The stars in
HYDRA are: *COR HYDRAE* (called by Astronomers today, 'Heart of the
Serpent') - but - Arabs knew it as *AL-PHARD* ('The Separated',
'The Excluded' or 'Put Out of the Way'), The Way is the way of Christ.
*AL DRIAN* (Arabic: 'The Abhorred'), *MINCHER AL SUGIA* (Arabic:
'Tearing to Shreads of the Deceiver') Another name was HYDRUS ('The
Father of Lies') and the Persians knew this constellation as 'The
Serpent of Eve'. In Mythology, HYDRA was known as a female and 'The
Mother of All Evil'. All point to the serpent being drawn down.

7 Then war broke out in heaven;
Michael and his angels battled against the dragon. The dragon and its angels
fought back, 8 but they did not prevail and there was no longer any place
for them in heaven. 9 The huge dragon, the ancient serpent, who is called
the Devil and Satan, who deceived the whole world, was thrown down to earth,
and its angels were thrown down with it.
CRATER
(the cup of fire)
ANCIENT
IMAGE: This constellation has 13 stars in it. (13 symbolizes apostasy
in scripture). The cup has two handles, each shaped like the head of a
serpent spewing out something from its mouth. This cup is also known
as the 'Cup of God's Wrath'. The cup is the mixing bowl of wine.
WE choose to take of the 'Cup of Salvation' (Communion or Holy Eucharist)
or the 'Cup of God's Wrath'. Ancient Hebrews and Arabians
knew this constellation as AL CHESS ('The Cup').

is in the LORD'S hand, foaming wine, fully spiced. When God pours it out,
they will drain it even to the dregs; all the wicked of the earth must
drink. 10 But I will rejoice forever; I will sing praise to the God
of Jacob, 11 Who has said: "I will break off all the horns of the wicked,
but the horns of the just shall be lifted up."

-----==PSALM 11:5-7==-----
5 The LORD tests the good

9 A third angel followed
them and said in a loud voice, "Anyone who worships the beast or its image,

will be tormented in burning sulfur before the holy angels and before the
Lamb.
CORVUS
(the raven)
ANCIENT
IMAGE: The raven pecks at the body of the serpent HYDRA. And fulfills
the prophecy of the birds of heaven would feed on the corpses of the enemies
of God. The brightest star is centered in the eye of the the raven is called
*AL CHIBAR* (Arabic: 'The Joining Together'). And by the Hebrews,
it was known as *AL CHIBA* ('The Curse Inflicted', or 'The Curse').
Other stars in the constellation are *MINCHIR AL GORAB (Arabic: 'The
Raven's Piercing' or 'Tearing Apart'). This tells us the battle
is over as the Raven is not attacking HYDRA, as its wings are tucked next
to its body and it is eating the flesh of the beaten.

of kings, the flesh of military officers, and the flesh of warriors, the
flesh of horses and of their riders, and the flesh of all, free and slave,
small and great."

5: 8-11
But God proves his love for
us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us. 9 How much more
then, since we are now justified by his blood, will we be saved through
him from the wrath. 10 Indeed, if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled
to God through the death of his Son, how much more, once reconciled, will
we be saved by his life. 11 Not only that, but we also boast of God through
our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
WHAT DOES A CATHOLIC

ASTRONOMY VS ASTROLOGY ~
SCRIPTURE SCHOLAR SAY?
MARK 13: 22
22 False messiahs and false
prophets will arise and will perform signs and wonders in order to mislead,
if that were possible, the elect. 23 Be watchful! I have told it all to
you
beforehand.
THE ZODIAC DOES NOT HAVE ROOTS
IN HOROSCOPES
What we know as the star
constellations - pictures in the night sky - are often called in English
the "signs of the Zodiac", is known in Hebrew as "the Mazzeroth", star
constellations placed by God Himself, Job 38:31; Isaiah 13:10; Amos 5:8.
This placement of the stars by God was done to tell the Gospel plan of
redemption before the Bible was put into writing. The word Zodiac is a
term used in astronomy, Job 9:9 (lb). God’s message in the stars
where the book of creation speaks to man of God's awesome power, Psalm
19:1–6 (Note words “speech,” “language,” “voice” in the text. Then compare
verses 7–13.).
+
THE BIBLE CONDEMNS ASTROLOGY
The science of Astronomy is
NEVER to be confused with ASTROLOGY which is fortune telling and the Bible
condemns. ASTRONOMY is the science dealing with the phenomena outside
the earth’s atmosphere but especially concerned with the observable arrangements,
motions, and characteristics of the heavenly bodies planets, stars,
asteroids and universes in space. The word “astronomy” is based on two
Greek words meaning “the law of the stars.”
+
ASTRONOMY AND ITS VALUES
Astronomy is by no means
a modern science. Human beings have always been preoccupied with the heavens.
The concern of the earliest civilizations with the universe appears to
have been mainly intellectual curiosity and the need for navigational orientation
were certainly additional factors. (Also remember the star of Bethlehem
that guided the 3 kings to the child Jesus. They have been called 'readers
of the stars', and 'astronomers'. The term astrologers is questionable)
+
WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY?
The Bible provides some interesting
insights about astronomy. According to Genesis 1:14–19 the sun and moon,
along with the stars, have the function of giving light on the earth, determining
the seasons, and functioning as “signs.” The word “season” may denote festal
seasons as well as the annual seasons. The Hebrew calendar was a lunar-solar
calendar similar to that of the Babylonians. Hebrew festal seasons were
based on the phases of the moon. The function of the heavenly bodies as
signs seems to relate to their delineation of the heavens, permitting human
beings on earth to orient themselves, navigate land and the high
seas and know the stars were
created by God.
MARK 7:8
'You disregard
God's commandment but cling to human tradition.'
See the 1st of the 10 commandments
(Thou shalt have no other gods before Me). Astrology is a 'Human tradition'
which puts other gods in front of the Lord (horoscopes) which comes
from the sin of pride, the sin that began in Eden.
