Astro-Theology & Christianity (interesting information your church probably doesn't want you to know about)
First off nothing presented here is intended for the degradation of your beliefs. The information presented here is to empower you and enhance your beliefs by finding out the deep driving meanings behind them. As they always say knowledge is power.
I draw the following information from this web site which I suggest you go to and read for yourself:
http://www.taroscopes.com/astro-theology/astrotheology2.html
I will give a very brief look of the information presented on the site:
There were four ancient cults of power
(Stellar, Lunar, Solar, Saturnian)
The great Cults finally decided to united together instead of always being in competition with each other for the power over men.
The name Israel (Is Ra El) is derived from three deities of these ancient Cults: Isis, Ra and El (Moon, Sun and Saturn).Their symbolism pervades our world (example's: Rings (ear rings, finger rings ect...), Sun symbols, crescent moon symbols (on flags ect...), Stars, ect..ect.. the symbolism stuff needs a whole discussion thread of its own)
Seven Churches of the Bible = In all there were 7 cults with the first 4 being of most importance (Stellar, Lunar, Saturnian, Solar, Vulcanus (Fire Cult), Dionysian (Drug, or "Psychedelic" Cult),Venusian (Cult of Venus) which eventually all molded together.
"Time itself was divided to reflect and commemorate the unification of the Cults. The year round was broken down into 12 months to honor the Solar Cult. Their god was the sun and his number was 12. The next division of time was a month and, as the word's etymology indicates, this was sacred to the Lunar Cult, whose chief tutelary deity was the moon. The next division of time is a week, in which the 7 gods of the Stellar Cult are honored. These are today's days of the week. The worshippers of the god Saturn was given Saturday as a feast day, and since their god (planet) moves so gradually, the larger, longer cycles of time where attributed to him. The hands of a physical timepiece have, for generations, concealed and revealed this sectioning of time according to the Cults. The hour hand represents Horus, the sun. The minute hand stands for Min, the moon-god. The fast moving second hand stands for Mercury, the god of the Stellar Cult, as do the 12 divisions. On elaborately designed watches and clocks, the hands often display circles upon them, to illustrate that they represent planetary orbs. The very word year comes from the Egyptian yehrah. This word signified the Lunar Year. The passage of the moon was observed very closely by the Egyptians. Even under the Atonist period the moon was considered important. It was referred to as "silver Aton."
"During the tenure of the Stellar Cults women held superior positions in society, religion and government."
"One of the main reasons why the knowledge of the Sidereal Cult is kept obscure is to keep women divorced from their power in ways that are barely understood."
"Christ even remonstrates to his disciples "Be ye as wise as Serpents." This doesn’t make much sense until we discover that the serpent was the prime symbol of the Stellar Cult, the "wise-ones" of old. And, what's more, the Egyptian hieroglyphic for "woman" was a serpent. This is one of the reasons why the serpent was considered negatively by later Christians."
_________________________________________________
"One of the most important and familiar idioms of the Christian religion is the so-called Lord's Prayer. Not many people have asked where it came from. Most people trust what is written in the Gospels about its origin. It is from the Maxims of Ani (ancient egyptian writting) that the so-called "Lord's Prayer" of Christianity was taken:
The Lord's Prayer (left) next to the Maxims of Ani (right):
Our Father, which art in heaven - The God of this Earth is the ruler of the horizon
Hallowed be Thy Name - Th god is for making great his name. Devote yourself to the adoration of his name
Thy kingdom come - Give your god existence
Thy will be done - He will do thy business
In earth, as it is in heaven - His likeness is upon the Earth
Give us this day our daily bread - God is given incense and food offerings daily
And forgive us our debts - The god will judge the true and honest and forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation - Guard against the thing that god abominates
But deliver us from evil - Preserve me from decay
For thine is the kingdom - God is the king of the horizon
The power, and the glory - He magnifies he whoever magnifies him
For ever and ever Amen - Let tomorrow be as today
Amen
Another striking similarity:
"From the Maxims of Ani (or Anty the Scribe), the papyrus found by Mariette Bey and now kept in the museum of Boulacq, we read passages that incontestably influenced the composers of the Old Testament.
Do not enter into the house of another, but know that if he invites you, it is an honor for you. When you enter a divine sanctuary avoid noise, and respect the house of God.
Pray humbly with a sincere heart so that all your words are said in secret. Then God will listen to your message and will accept your offerings.
Always remember that it is your God that gives and decides on your existence, and think of him continually, tomorrow as today.
The God of this world lives in light, above the firmament, but his emblems are on earth. Do not dispute his mysteries and you will see the divine one give the sun to make all vegetation grow, to make food for man to feed himself.
Do not be rough with your woman when you know that she looks after your house. Recognize her merits and put your hand in hers. Doing otherwise will sow misfortune, and show a bad example for your children. They will lose a source of peace and happiness. "

"The burden of Egypt. Behold, the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall met in the midst of it.

"And why was Egypt, this magnificent seat of learning and culture, such a "burden" to the Christian Emperors and Bishops?

Much of the Bible is the personification of Stellar phenomena.
Through asto-theology we find many parallels to biblical text:
There is a reason why we find 4 gospels. The four "Gospels" are representations of the four cardinal points of the zodiac.
"The Bible is an outgrowth of the Torah, but the Torah is an outgrowth of the Tarot, in fact they are the same word, meaning Law, or Way, same as Tao."
"The 4 Types have always been symbolized by the 4 elements, Fire, Water, Air and Earth, or as in Tarot: Wands, Cups, Swords, Disks, or in playing cards, Clubs, Hearts, Spades and Diamonds. In ordinary playing cards, the Joker represents the one who has nucleated the four, and integrated within each of these divisions. He wears the four colors of the 4 suits, because he is "four in one." The design of the Pyramid, its four faces rising to a singular apex, was also a seminal symbol of the unification of the four modalities of being. Christ upon the Cross, and Pharaoh upon his cuboid throne also refer to this greatest of mysteries."
"The Four Gospels. They too represent the four elements. "
________________________________________________
"The story of the primal parents at the Tree of Life, the mysterious serpent and the temptation are all derived from Egyptian Sidereal myth. Egypt was known by alien nations as the “Land of the Tree and the Serpent."
"The Female body was called the Tree of Life and like a tree the female produced fruit. Her fruits are the circular ovum."
"the Book of Genesis or Genisis. Isis was the supreme mother goddess of Egypt"
"Genesis means "genes of Isis," or even "generation (progeny), of Isis."
"Isis is the later Eve and Mary, the virgin queens. The Book of Genesis is therefore a book of genes, relating to the human DNA (the real Tree of Life)."
"The serpent and the apple were symbols of the sperm and the ovum. The "biting of the apple" was always a connotation for the sperm entering the ovum."
(there is much more to this found at the source URL, oh and by the way ISIS (the word) squeezed together gives us the american dollar symbol, also curiously we find a pyramid on the dollar bill)
__________________________________________________
"Many of the anecdotes and stories in New Testament have to do with the astronomical phenomena called 'The "Precession of the Equinoxes."
"The Age of Pisces
The Christian Mythos coincided with the Age of Pisces. This is the reason why there is much in the way of water symbolism in the New Testament. There is the mention of Baptism, the fact that the disciples were mostly fishermen. Then there is the walking on the water, the washing the feet of the disciples, the feeding of the five thousand with two fish, etc. The Christians still use the symbol of the fish to symbolize Jesus. The letters of the word Jesus Christ the Savior of the World, in Latin, give the word for fish. The Pope wears the "Ring of the Fisherman," and the Pope's headdress is a fish head, from the side. The early Christians were called the "Little Fishes." In the Old Testament we read about the prophet Jonah being swallowed by the whale or the great fish. All the imagery of the chapters and verses of the New Testament can be related to the Precessional phenomena, as that it what it was composed for in the first place. It was never meant to be a biography."
"The 33 years of Christ's ministry
This is a number that connects directly with the zodiac and the movement of the sun around it. As mentioned above, the sun takes 2,160 years to pass backward through one sign of 30 degrees. Now this number 2160 or its shorter version 216, is a number that turns up in megalithic construction throughout the world. It was encoded into most of the cyclopean structures, to represent the Serpent or Sidereal Cults who were the Magi, or astrologers. Now it takes 2,160 years for the sun to clear a house. In degrees this is 30. But the sun enters at the 30th degree but is not totally clear until the 33rd degree, as it is of a certain size also. This is why they said in the Bible that the ministry of Christ begins at 30 and finishes at 33. This reference would have been unmistakable to anyone aware of the secrets of astrology. The number is connected to the initiation of the "Sun" of god not "Son," passing through the zodiac. This is why the Freemasonic lodges also utilize the number. There are also 33 vertebrae in the spinal column."
"The 12 Official and 72 Unofficial disciples
This refers to the twelve houses or signs of the zodiac that are found on or very near to the ecliptic. The ecliptic is the path of the sun around the zodiac. There are more than twelve constellations there of course. And in fact if one counts all the constellations of great importance, there are 72, not counting the 12. These extra-zodiacal constellations are called the paranatellons. They also pay homage to the passing sun. So it was written that Jesus had 12 official servants and 72 others that also carried the message. The symbol of the Arthurian Round Table is also a motif that is based on the round of the zodiac. Now these paranatellons are the leitmotif behind innumerable other Biblical and mythical stories. But because we are not conversant with these constellations and their esoteric relevance we do not notice when they turn up either in fiction or art, architecture or commercial."
"Creation in "Six Days"
This refers to a period of 2,160 x 6 or 12,960 (a number found encoded in almost all the sacred megalithic structures and temple complexes of the world). A Precessional "day" is 2,160 years long. This is 1 degree every 72 years for a sign of 30 degrees. But the 2,160 was considered so sacred that its mystery was rarely mentioned to the uninitiated. Instead of it, the number 666 was used. (6x6x6 = 216.) This is the real reason why the orthodox Christian hierarchy have made this number out to be satanic. It is because it has to do with Astro-Theology, astrology and the Stellar Cult. When a particular secret number was to be expressed, another related code number was used in its place. The Jews did the same thing with the word Adonai, which they uttered in place of Jehovah. There is nothing "satanic" about the number 666. It is, however, the "Number of the Beast" alright.
...LET HIM WHO HATH UNDERSTANDING
RECKON THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST
FOR IT IS A HUMAN NUMBER...
Man is in the womb for 9 months. Upon his birth, he is forever circumambulated by the wheel of the zodiac. And for his personal life, for the life of the earth upon which he lives, for light and energy he needs the outer sun, the center of the zodiac. Nine months is 270 days. The wheel of the zodiac like all circles and cycles that man will live in, is defined by 360. And the sacred numeral of the sun is 36.
270 + 360 + 36 = 666 (the Human Number)
Moreover, all the numbers between 1 and 36, again make 666. The number 666 is a solar number also. (The number 36 has long been connected to cycles and to the zodiac. The Etruscans, Greeks and Romans, all had calendars of ten months of thirty-six days.)
Additionally, as modern biologists have discovered, the human gene is made up of 23 chromosomes. 2 divided by 3 equals .666 (The Number of the Beast)
(This in no way exhausts the depth of significance of the number 666.)"
"The Bible mentions Christ as the good "Shepherd" and there are the "Shepherds" who watch their "flocks" by night who come to visit him in the manger."
"And Egyptian Pharaohs and priests of knowledge in that Age were referred to as the "Good Shepherds." The "Flocks" that they watched by night were the stars in the night sky, as they were all Siderealists. This is why we read that the Magi, as well as the "Shepherds," following the bright star, knew of the place of birth of the Solar King, Jesus Christ. The word "Shepherd" was a euphemism for "astrologer," for it is they who "follow," the stars."

APPENDIX VIII
Etymology: Key to the Past
Introduction
This peculiar liability of men to be deceived by words and names when they are presented in disguised and abbreviated, or unfamiliar, forms of spelling has been taken full advantage of by the obscurantists, who have in some ways secreted and in other ways suppressed the history of the past ages - Conor MacDari (The Bible: An Irish Book)
This section introduces the subject of Etymology (the meaning of words). Etymology is one of the most important subjects to learn about. The terms and meanings presented here are abstracted from the works of the finest geniuses that this planet has ever played host to. Therefore, we are not concerned with the remonstrations of modern-day philologists and etymologists who would dangle their skepticism in our face. Etymology is, after all, not a precise subject and words (vowels and consonants) change over the generations and suffer from all sorts of modifications. Once it is thoroughly understood how venerated the stars and heaven were by the ancient literati, we will be in no doubt as to the veracity of the meanings here provided.
As time passed, and as the average illiterate human being's life became increasingly utilitarian stressed and superficial, the art of communication waned as did the contemplation on words as mantras and yantras in their own right. Words became separated from their own meanings. As man's security in himself and in the world grew increasingly precarious, words became more denotative and they lost their connotative facets. The nuances still exist, but only to the mind which is cognizant of the sacred rather than the prosaic nature of the words which he uses to express himself and which he uses to call upon divinity. The transluminal meaning of words was of paramount importance to our ancient fore-fathers. The respect given to words exceeded that given to other human beings. Men are expendable. Words are not. Men live short lives. Words are long-lived and infinitely experienced. Within a single letter, lies a universe, a radiant shrine of truth before which many a great man has been initiated. When we remember the debt we owe to a Homer, a Shakespeare, or a Cervantes, let us remember too the debt these masters owed to words and letters. Though the poet may be the prince, the WORD is emperor. It is not frivolously that the Book of Genesis opens with the line - "In the beginning was the word...." It is almost a sly wink from the author, since it is his word that begins the book, and not God's.

APPENDIX VIII
Etymology: Key to the Past
Introduction
This peculiar liability of men to be deceived by words and names when they are presented in disguised and abbreviated, or unfamiliar, forms of spelling has been taken full advantage of by the obscurantists, who have in some ways secreted and in other ways suppressed the history of the past ages - Conor MacDari (The Bible: An Irish Book)
This section introduces the subject of Etymology (the meaning of words). Etymology is one of the most important subjects to learn about. The terms and meanings presented here are abstracted from the works of the finest geniuses that this planet has ever played host to. Therefore, we are not concerned with the remonstrations of modern-day philologists and etymologists who would dangle their skepticism in our face. Etymology is, after all, not a precise subject and words (vowels and consonants) change over the generations and suffer from all sorts of modifications. Once it is thoroughly understood how venerated the stars and heaven were by the ancient literati, we will be in no doubt as to the veracity of the meanings here provided.
As time passed, and as the average illiterate human being's life became increasingly utilitarian stressed and superficial, the art of communication waned as did the contemplation on words as mantras and yantras in their own right. Words became separated from their own meanings. As man's security in himself and in the world grew increasingly precarious, words became more denotative and they lost their connotative facets. The nuances still exist, but only to the mind which is cognizant of the sacred rather than the prosaic nature of the words which he uses to express himself and which he uses to call upon divinity. The transluminal meaning of words was of paramount importance to our ancient fore-fathers. The respect given to words exceeded that given to other human beings. Men are expendable. Words are not. Men live short lives. Words are long-lived and infinitely experienced. Within a single letter, lies a universe, a radiant shrine of truth before which many a great man has been initiated. When we remember the debt we owe to a Homer, a Shakespeare, or a Cervantes, let us remember too the debt these masters owed to words and letters. Though the poet may be the prince, the WORD is emperor. It is not frivolously that the Book of Genesis opens with the line - "In the beginning was the word...." It is almost a sly wink from the author, since it is his word that begins the book, and not God's.
