Astrology

My sessions aim to be therapeutic but that does not mean I am a therapist in the licensed professional sense of the word. Music can be therapeutic, going to the park can be therapeutic, and in this way what we hope to achieve is also to have a most beneficial effect on body and soul.

And please don't let the word "astrology" scare you. It's an ancient science that's been around for thousands of years; even further back, to the very dawn of time. Though the word has admittedly, throughout history, been both used and abused.

The only real way to clear the confusion and misunderstanding is to learn about astrology and find out what it really is; and, what it is not.

Can you honestly be critical of something you have no knowledge of, or what little information you do have is incorrect?

Astrology and Astronomy were once the exact same thing. One came from the other, as did Chemistry originate from Alchemy. Once upon a time, the word "mathematician" was synonymous with Astrologer because higher math came from and was inspired by Astrology.

The study of the stars and their positions demanded complex calculations, more so than was needed for trade and commerce, more so than mere fingers and toes could handle, thus modern mathematics was born.

Do some heavy research into the foundations of each and every religion upon the face of the earth. You will find many of their myths, parables, and stories illustrate astrological events and cycles. Look deeply, below the surface.

One of the oldest for example, the Sumerian myth of Innana and the Venus cycle.

And if you are a Christian, as I am, even though the "official" position of the Church is against it, there were times when this was not so. The Bible itself is filled with astrological references. Example, many numbers that repeat over and over again in the Bible are found associated with Astrology.

The very first persons who came to worship Jesus were astrologers (Persian Magi) and followed the stars to find Him! That was the birth of Jesus. At His death there appeared another heavenly sign, anciently associated with the death of kings,

a Solar Eclipse.

No, not a natural Solar Eclipse as this particular time was around a Passover Full Moon, but something definitely was "eclipsing" the Sun's light as it was said to be dark at high noon, same as it would be during a natural eclipse.

And then we find the 12 Apostles. Not 5 or 11 or 14, but 12 just as the signs of the Zodiac number 12. That's 6 below and 6 above the horizon and we have 66 books in the King James Bible, not 61, 68, but 66. Arbitrary? Hmmm, I don't think so.

4 Gospels? 4 elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Air. And 7 "known" PLANETS in the olden days, and we have only 7 churches and 7 letters and 7 candlesticks in the last book of the Bible? There could be more or less mentioned, but there weren't.

Only 7.

Wisdom has built her house, and she has supported it with seven pillars. (Proverbs 9:1)

Also we see the number 40 come up again and again. This corresponds to a particular 40 day Venus Rx Cycle as it was known to ancient peoples. And Jesus Christ the Lord and Savior (in Rev 22:16) refers to Himself as,..

---The Bright and Morning Star--- a traditional name for VENUS

Lots of symbolism that ties directly back to astrological references, could these all be accidental?

No, because it occurs too often and in many ways and forms throughout the Bible.

Even the faces of Ezekiel's strange winged creatures refer directly to fixed positions of the zodiac: Aquarius (a man), and the opposite sign, Leo (lion), Taurus (an Ox), and the opposite sign, Scorpio (the eagle), in Ezekiel 1:10

Note: Scorpio even in the modern times is associated with 3 symbols, the scorpion, eagle, and the Pheonix.

Then we have the 12 tribes of Israel, and so on and so forth, we find these same numbers repeatedly, to make a point, albeit hidden and completely veiled unless you know something about astrology.

Psalm 19 says the sky "speaks" if we only listen,.. but just because words are spoken, does NOT mean they are heard. Still,..

1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.

6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
