Next Month's Sky-Events Overview

Upcoming Sky Events for February 2019...

The month of February is somewhat quieter in terms of sky events. Nothing big will be going on like January. But still, there are a few notable events in February, as follows:

February 5 - New Moon Eve

The first visible crescent of the new moon should appear at sunset. Watch for the crescent moon which will follow the sun going down as it sets. The new moon will not be visible very long following the sunset. February 5 will be the 12th new moon of the Biblical year (since the Biblical year begins in the spring). This may seem strange at first, since we still have a new moon in March before the beginning of the Biblical year...  But this year the Biblical year has a thirteenth month! I will explain about this in my blog on this day...

February 19 - Full Moon - Super Moon


A super moon is larger than a normal full moon. This event occurs when the moon is at its closest approach to the earth. The unusual closeness of the moon to earth makes the full moon appear slightly larger than normal. This will be the second of three super moons this year. (The third and final super moon will be in March).

February 27 - Mercury at Greatest Eastern Elongation


The planet Mercury will reach its greatest eastern elongation on this night. This will be 18.1 degrees from the sun. This will be the best time to view Mercury since it will be at its highest point above the horizon in the evening sky. You should be able to spot it low in the western sky just after sunset.

Of course, in this blog, during February, you can expect me to discuss these above listed sky-events on the day they will occur. In between those days, I'll continue showing details about the Mazzaroth. Additionally, I'll be featuring the second star family during the month of February, which is: Mozanaim (the Scales) and its three decans. 

Each month I plan to feature a different star family, allowing us to cover all 12 of the primary constellations with their three decans in the course of this year.

God's Clock - the Month

The Mazzaroth Defines a Month

The next construct of Time which Yahweh used the Mazzaroth to define is the Biblical month. In English, the connection between the month and the moon is clear. In fact the word "moon" is the root word of the word "month". Merriam Webster's Dictionary defines the word "month" as follows:

A Month is: "a measure of time corresponding nearly to the period of the moon's revolution and amounting to approximately 4 weeks or 30 days or ¹/₁₂ of a year."

But just knowing that the English word "month" is connected to the lunar cycle does not mean that God's original calendation of the month was associated with the moon. After all, the Bible wasn't written in English. For this reason, we need to look at the Hebrew word which is translated as "month" in the Bible.

The Hebrew word which is most often translated as "month" in our English Bibles is khodesh (Strong's Concordance #H2320). For example, khodesh was the original word which is translated as "month" in Exodus 12:2:

Exodus 12:2  "This month (khodesh) shall be unto you the beginning of months (khodesh): it shall be the first month (khodesh) of the year to you." 

When we look khodesh up in the Strong's Concordance (#2320), we find the following meaning:

"the new moon; by implication a month: - month (-ly), new moon."

Thus, in the Bible, "month" is not only associated with the moon, its primary meaning is "new moon". And the term "month" is only the "implication", meaning that it is the length of time it takes to go from one new moon day to the next new moon.

Some have suggested that a month was merely a 30-day count, in the beginning. Thus, one does not need a moon at all in order to define a Biblical month. But anytime we divorce God's TIME from the heavenly lights, we have lost sight of Yahweh's heavenly Clock, and thus have lost touch with Heaven's true Time.

It is true that the week is a simple count of seven days. But the day itself is defined by the heavenly lights (sun by daylight and moon and/or stars by night time). Thus, a week is really counting seven solar/lunar cycles.

Similarly, a Biblical month also is not a simple count of 30 +/- days. Rather it is a count of days with respect to the lunar phase. This is a key not only in determining the start of a Biblical month, but also a Biblical year (which will be explained in more detail in a later blog).

In Exodus 12:2, using the primary meaning of khodesh, we find that the Biblical year begins with a particular New Moon. That one certain New Moon is the first New Moon of the year. 

But the month isn't mentioned in our Genesis 1:14 list of Times established by the heavenly lights... Or is it?

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 signs, and for seasons (mo'ed), and for days, and years." 

While it is true that there are no translations of the word "khodesh" in Genesis 1:14, it does say that the heavenly lights were given "for seasons". "Seasons" is Strong's Concordance number 4150 and is translated from the original Hebrew word mo'ed. In looking up the meaning of this word we find the following meaning:

"an appointment, that is, a fixed time or season; specifically a festival... feast..."

In Leviticus chapter 23, all the "feasts" (mo'eds) of Yahweh are listed:

Leviticus 23:1-2 "And (Yahweh) spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts (mo'ed, Strong's #4150) of (Yahweh), which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are My feasts (mo'ed, Strong's #4150)." 

The word "feasts" which is from the Hebrew word mo'ed, is also translated as "seasons" in Genesis 1:14. Thus we see that the timing for the feasts of Yahweh are determined by the moon. This is certainly suggested by the connection of Leviticus 23's "feasts" with Genesis 1:14's "seasons". But the Bible does actually state that Yahweh gave the moon to indicate the timing of His Seasons:

Psalm 104:19 "He appointed the moon for seasons (feast days, Hebrew: mo'eds)..."

And what are the Feasts (mo'eds) of Yahweh for which He appointed the moon to set the times? According to Leviticus 23, the first mo'ed is the weekly Sabbath. It is the seventh day (counting fully seven solar lunar days). But the remaining mo'eds are determined by the moon only, which is why this break appears in the listing between the Seventh day Sabbath and the remaining Feast days:

Leviticus 23:4  "These are the feasts (mo'ed) of (Yahweh), even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons (mo'ed)." 

In Hebrew, the word "mo'ed" appears twice in Leviticus 23:4. But it is translated differently, first with the primary meaning indicating the annual holy days. But the second time mo'ed is translated as "seasons" because translators understood it was a reference to the moon (Psalm 104:19). 

The Seventh-day Sabbath (weekly Sabbath) which appears in Leviticus 23:3 (the verse just prior to this thought break of verse 4) to indicate that the weekly Sabbath is calculated differently (by 7 light/dark periods, as explained before). But the Feasts which are listed AFTER verse 4 are determined by the moon, hence the use of the terminology "proclaim in their seasons".

The feasts (translated "seasons" in Genesis 1:14), for which the timing is determined by the moon are:

• Passover - the 14th day of the first Biblical month (counting from the first New Moon of the year). (Leviticus 23:5)
• Unleavened Bread - the 15th to 21st days of the first Biblical month (counting from Passover, which is counted from the first New Moon of the year). (Leviticus 23:6)
• Pentecost/Feast of Weeks - After using the first New Moon of the year to determine the timing for Passover and Unleavened Bread, you are able to count to 50 days from the Day of First Fruits, which falls after the Sabbath in the week of Unleavened Bread (counting from Passover, which is counted from the first New Moon of the year). (Leviticus 23:9-16)
• Feast of Trumpets - Again, the heavenly light of the moon is used for timing this annual Sabbath...  The Feast of Trumpets is the seventh New Moon (counting from the first New Moon of the year). (Leviticus 23:23-25)
• Day of Atonement - Atonement is the 10th day of the 7th Biblical month (counting from the seventh New Moon). (Leviticus 23:27)
• Feast of Tabernacles - The Feast of Tabernacles is the 15th to 21st day of the 7th Biblical month (counting from the seventh New Moon). (Leviticus 23:33-35)

Having gone through the "Feasts" (mo'eds) listed in Leviticus 23, which is the same word translated as "seasons" in Genesis 1:14, we can see how the heavenly lights (of which the moon is part) are used to determine Yahweh's "Seasons". Once again, no part of the Heaven's Time is disconnected from the Mazzaroth.

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 signs, and for seasons (mo'ed), and for days, and years." 

We want to re-tune ourselves, realigning with Yahweh's Clock. In so doing, we'll be better able to worship Yahweh at His appointed times. And the first step in this re-alignment process is reconnecting to His Time through discerning the Mazzaroth (sun, moon, stars, etc...)

God's Clock - the Day

The Mazzaroth Defines a Day

As we discussed in yesterday's blog, the Mazzaroth, which is the heavenly lights (sun, moon, stars, planets...) was created by God so that mankind would be able to discern Heavenly Time, both prophetically (End-time Events) and literally (Day to day).

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 signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years." 

The most often-repeating construct of Time, which Yahweh instigated at Creation is the Day. So let's begin with it. How does the Mazzaroth (the heavenly lights) determine and define a Day?  

In the Creation week record in Genesis 1, we find that the evening (dark time) and morning (light time) make a day. In reference to the light portion of the day, Messiah once asked, "Are there not 12 hours in a day?" (John 11:9). Thus, the word "day" in Scripture can refer to only the time of daylight, or it can refer to the full period of 24 hours, including day and night. 

How does this relate to the heavenly lights? Quite directly, actually...  The sun and its light shine upon the earth during the daylight portion of a day. And the moon and/or stars and their lights shine upon the earth during the nighttime portion of a day. The portion (whether light time or dark time) of the day is determined by which of the heavenly lights are visible in the sky at that time. 

But, if we forget that Yahweh made the heavenly lights and appointed them with the job of defining and determining a DAY, we get into some real trouble. In fact, by disconnecting a Day from the Mazzaroth, just as we start to assemble our Scriptural pieces to define a day, a doctrine seems to hit our nicely assembling puzzle with the destructive power of a thermonuclear blast. Maybe a Creation day isn't 24 hours. Maybe its an "age" or undefined period of time. With such a suggestion, all hope of reconnecting with Yahweh's original day-Clock seems lost. But is it right? 

The idea that “In the beginning” is an unknown period of time that precedes the first day is a dangerous one. We have to be careful when we put an undefined time-frame between verse one and verse three that goes outside of a 24-hour period for two reasons: 

1) there is simply no Scriptural indication that there is a gap between the verses. In fact, Scripture is carefully defining a day in these verses, which becomes lost to us, if we espouse any part of the "gap theory".

2) by adding a period of time where Scripture mentions none, we are adding to Scripture,

which we are repeatedly warned not to do. 

When we speculate that there is a gap, we lose all possibility of defining a Biblical day. And being able to define a Biblical day may not be too big an issue on a normal day, but there are times when it really matters when a day begins. When? The Sabbaths!

Quickly, however, let's address the gap theory. To do this, I will share a short story... 

This past summer at the Douglas County Fair, my husband and I were running a fair booth offering BEMER sessions (for vascular health and more...) and selling BEMER's along with my Mazzaroth book God's Amazing Star Secret. It turned out to be a winning combination. Had we only offered my book, folks might have glanced at it and walked on, as many don't read much it seems...  

But, because we were offering health sessions, folks would come and spend time in our fair booth, giving us a chance to speak to them and prayerfully touch their lives for God. (We hadn't calculated this actually...  It was a divinely inspired idea, which we saw the blessing of afterwards, but couldn't anticipate going into our planning for the fair. But Yahweh is so good!)

So, one gentleman came to our booth for a BEMER session and as we visited with him during his session he asked about our star book. We gladly answered. Learning that our book was glorifying to Yahweh, he mentioned that he believed in the gap theory. He said that he believed there were ages, closer to the evolutionary time-table, between the days of Creation.

I listened but responded that I couldn't agree. The man asked why not. I explained that the Bible tells us the plants and vegetation were created on the third day of the Creation Week. The sun, moon and stars were created on the fourth day. If there were hundreds, thousands, or even millions of years between one Creation day and the next, the plants could not have waited so long for the sun to come up. 

But the best way to show that indeed the heavenly lights do define a day, having been given this job at Creation, is to see what the Bible says on the subject.

Scriptures that Prove a Creation Day Was a 24-Hour (Solar) Day

Genesis 1:5 - God Himself named and defined “Day” as the light period, and “Night” the dark period comprising one solar 24-hour day. If a day was an age, e.g. 1000 years, this would mean there would be 500 years of light and 500 years of darkness. Certainly, we don't see this (thankfully, for no life could continue to exist) in our world. 

Genesis 1:5 - “Yom,” this Hebrew word for “day.” It is first used and defined in verse 5. It is used 410 times in the Bible in association with a number, e.g. first day, and in each instance it always refers to a 24-hour solar day.

Genesis 1: 5,8,13,19,23,31 - After each day of creation, God specifically declares His act was completed in one day. He counts each day and numbers it, making it extra clear.

Genesis 1:16 - “…the greater light (sun) to rule the day, and the lesser light (moon) to rule the night ….” This obviously refers to 12 hour periods, not hundreds of years ruled by sun, or hundreds of years ruled by the moon.

Exodus 20:11 - “For in six days (Yahweh) made the heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the Seventh Day …” When we disconnect the Day from the Mazzaroth (solar/lunar), we lose the ability to discern when the weekly Sabbath takes place. This is a critical error for any believer. One of the primary reasons for deepening our understanding of the Mazzaroth is to discern Heaven's Time, in order to worship Yahweh in the Times and Ways that He asks. 

Exodus 31:17 - “… for in six days (Yahweh) made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He rested, and was refreshed.” Here is another reference showing that when we understand the connection of the Mazzaroth with determining a Day, we are able to rightly calculate and keep the weekly Sabbath.

John 11:9 - “(Yahshua) answered, are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walks in the day, he stumbles not, because he sees the light of this world.”

Genesis 2:2,3 -  “And God blessed the Seventh day, and sanctified it ….” The Sabbath was declared as Day #7. 

Exodus 20:11b “…wherefore (Yahweh) blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.” 

Genesis 2:2,3 - Adam was created on Day #6, and lived 930 years. He obviously lived beyond Day #7 when God rested because He and Eve had fellowship with God, and Adam had numerous sons and daughters. If a creation day was 1000 or a million years, Adam would have never seen Day #7.

Romans 5:12,13 and 1 Corinthians 15:21 - “Wherefore as by one man sin entered the world, and death by sin ….” If God used billions of years to create the earth, then extreme death (as evidenced in the fossil record) occurred before Adam sinned. These verses clearly state that death began only after Adam sinned.

Genesis 1:1-31 - The creation week initiated our current (and historical) 7-day week. Ask an atheist or evolutionist where we get our current 7-day week – God gave it to us.

I will conclude this interlude with a link, in case anyone wants a more in-depth study on the gap theory: https://creation.com/genesis-13-undermines-gap-theory

The bottom line is this, Yahweh made the Mazzaroth to define Time. If we disconnect any portion of the Time (listed in Genesis 1:14) from the Mazzaroth, we lose our ability to discern Heaven's Time. Discerning Heaven's Time is one of the primary purposes for which the sun, moon, and stars were created. 

By reconnecting the Mazzaroth to a day, we find that indeed the sun-moon-stars, do define the length of a day. And a full day's cycle will have seen appearances from both the daylight heavenly body (the sun) and the night time heavenly bodies (the moon and/or the stars). 

Keeping the Mazzaroth connection with Time will protect us from making doctrinal errors and losing our ability to tell Time on God's heavenly Clock.

Yahweh's Sky-Clock

God Created the Heavenly Lights to Determine TIME...

When we look up at the amazing heavenly lights in the sky which Yahweh created, it is easy to be amazed by their majesty and beauty. But we often miss the Creator's Purpose in creating the heavenly lights.

There are five reasons why Yahweh created the heavenly lights, as listed in Genesis 1:14. All five of these reasons are related to TIME.

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 signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years."

Here we find that the movements of the heavenly bodies through the sky is God's great Clock. How many aspects of TIME does Yahweh use the heavens to determine? 

1) DIVIDE DAY FROM NIGHT - The heavenly lights divide day from night, determining the length of time for daylight and dark each day.

2) SIGNS - the word "signs" indicates prophetic signs, or signs of prophecies being fulfilled. Prophetic time is marked and announced by the heavens - in other words, Yahweh uses sky events to make His heavenly Clock dong the arrival of a prophetic event.

3) SEASONS - the word "seasons" is translated from the Hebrew word "mo'ed", meaning "appointed times" and "feasts". This word appears as "feasts" in Leviticus 23. In other words, the timing of the annual Sabbaths (which are all listed in Leviticus 23) are determined by the heavenly lights, which as Psalm 104:19 states, are most especially determined by the moon. 

2) DAYS - The length of a day (which includes both day and night, as a 24-hour block of time) is determined by the heavens. 

3) YEARS - The length of a Biblical year is determined by the heavens.

Thus, we see that the heavenly lights are used for calculating ordinary time on both a small (watches of the day/night) and grand scale (year). The heavenly lights were also given for calculating sacred time, announcing both the arrival of prophetically foretold events and determining  the timing of the annual sacred appointments with Yahweh. 

No wonder Paul could write so plainly about the people of Yahweh needing no information from him regarding "times" and "seasons". God's people, were to be completely tuned-in to the Kingdom of Heaven's great Clock. Thus, the "Day" of Yahweh would not come upon God's people as "thief in the night". Only those who walk in spiritual darkness (being unaware of God's Time-Clock) will be surprised at the Time of His Return, having that great Day overtake them as a thief in the night! (1 Thessalonians 5:1-5)

Since the five main reasons why Yahweh created the heavenly lights all have to do with His Clock and Heaven's TIME, it is important for us to go carefully through the elements of Biblical Time to see how they relate to the heavenly lights and to regain a fuller understanding of Yahweh's Time.

I will do this in my blog over several days...

Four Quadrants of the Heavens

The Divisions of the Heavens Portray the Biblical "Branch" Prophecies

As I explained in yesterday's blog, there is Scriptural evidence to connect the pyramids with the Throne of God. The Bible says that God established His “wonders” in the land of Egypt, which are still standing as signs to this day:

“God has set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day...”  Jeremiah 32:20 

As we saw, the Bible describes the Throne of God as being “high and lifted up” (Isaiah 6:1) and also describes it as being the “holy Mountain of God” (Ezekiel 28:14). The term “mountain” is far more indicative of a pyramid shape. But the prophet Ezekiel is even more specific. When recounting how the devil was once a covering cherub, who served at the Throne of God, Ezekiel described the Throne:

“Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire (pyramid).” Ezekiel 28:14 

The term “midst of the Stones of Fire” is from Prya (fire in the)-midst, or pyramid! 

Additionally, the ancients connected the pyramid shape with the Throne of God in the sphinxes which often accompanied them. The sphinx had the face of a man, the body of a bull, the feet of a lion, and the wings of an eagle. 

The Seraphim, which serve at God’s Throne, portray Christ’s Messianic Roles as a Man, Eagle, Bull, and Lion. These heavenly beings were the inspiration for the sphinx, which was associated with the pyramid. This Babylonian sphinx has a man’s face, the body of a lion, the feet of a bull and the wings of an eagle.

Thus, we see that the sphinx was a representation of the seraphim, which are a high order of holy beings that surround the Throne of God (Ezekiel 1:4-14; Revelation 4:5-8).The seraphim (Isaiah 6:1-8), portray the Roles of Messiah as the righteous “Branch” (Tsemach, in Hebrew) of whom the Old Testament prophets wrote. (See page 172 of my book God's Amazing Star Secret, and the drawing below.)

In The Bible and in the heavens, Christ is portrayed as Messiah—the Branch. There are five prophetic Roles which the Branch was foretold to fulfill. His fulfillment of these Branch prophecies was evident that Yahshua (Christ) was the true Messiah. The symbols of Christ’s Branch Roles are: the Eagle (for His Messianic Work as God), the Man (for His Human Role), the Bull (for His Servant Role), the Lion (for His Kingly Role), and the worthy Lamb (for His Sacrifice). The Lamb is Taleh.

As is shown in this Mazzaroth wheel (above), the heavens are divided into four quadrants, portraying four of the BRANCH Roles  of Messiah ("Branch" is translated from the Hebrew word "Tsemach") . 

God’s star-story begins in the Eagle quadrant, continues to the Man quadrant, then to the Bull quadrant, and completes in the Lion quadrant. Let's look at each of these Roles of Messiah and see why they are the four quadrants of the heavens as well as the shapes of the seraphims' faces.

• LION—represents the BRANCH as KING of kings—Jeremiah 23:5. 

The lion has long represented Christ’s Kingly Role. He is the “Lion of the tribe of Judah”, who is called Aryeh in the heavens.

“I will raise unto David a righteous BRANCH (Tsemach). A King shall reign and prosper and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.” Jeremiah 23:5 

• BULL (RE’EYM)—represents the BRANCH as THE SERVANT—Zechariah 3:8. 

The bull represents Christ’s Role as the 

heavenly Servant. The bull does his 

master’s work of plowing and grinding the grain, while harnessed into a yoke. Christ said His yoke is easy and His burden is light (Matthew 11:29). 

“Behold, I will bring forth My Servant the BRANCH (Tsemach).” Zechariah 3:8

• MAN—represents the BRANCH as a 

righteous MAN who is an example to 

mankind—Zechariah 6:12. 

By fulfilling this Messianic BRANCH prophecy, Christ took our place, as the Second Adam—because He was a sinless Man. 

“Behold, the Man whose Name is BRANCH (Tsemach), He shall build the Temple of (Yahweh).” Zechariah 6:12 

• EAGLE—represents the BRANCH in the Divine Role as Judge. The eagle’s vision is renowned. Since it sees all, it is a fitting symbol of Christ in His godly Role as the Judge—Jeremiah 33:15. 

“I will cause the BRANCH (Tsemach) of righteousness to grow up unto David. He shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.”  Jeremiah 33:15

According to the Scriptures, these four living Creatures, known as Seraphim, serve God at His Throne. Knowing this, the ancient Egyptians associated sphynxes (representing the Seraphim) with pyramids (the shape of God’s Throne). 

Significantly, all of these ancient representations were portrayed in the heavens and were centered on Orion (called Kesiyl in Hebrew), which was the most important of all the constellations, 

anciently renowned for being the gateway to the Throne of God. 

But Orion is a decan of Re'eym (the Bull) which is the ninth star-family in the ancient sky. For this reason, we will leave the topic for now and wait to add further detail to revelation of Orion in September of this year, which is when I will fully address and feature the 9th star family.

For now, it is important only to know that there were four quadrants, or divisions of the sky. These four quadrants were organized by the shapes of the seraphim, portraying the four Roles of Messiah in the Redemption of mankind. 

This month's featured star-family (Bethulah and her decans) along with the next two star-families (Mozanaim-the scales, and Aqrab-the scorpion) are in the first quadrant of the heavens: the Eagle quadrant. The Eagle quadrant shows Messiah's DIVINE Work.
