YES!! October has 2 Eclipses and both can be seen from North America. October 8th will have a full blood moon and October 23rd will have a partial Solar Eclipse.
The April 15th Blood Moon (lunar eclipse) totally covered the brightest star in Virgo, which is called Spica in Latin. The Hebrew name is Tsemech and means Branch, representing the Messiah. I remember looking in my SkyView AP on my iPhone and seeing the lineup of planets and constellations. I was so excited I could not sleep the rest of the night!
Psalms 19:1-6 tell of how the heavens speak and show knowledge. What I experienced that night was amazing! Understanding the Constellations that Creator God planned for this tells the whole story of what he is doing on the earth right now. The Heavens ‘declare’ the glory of God!
October 8, 2014 we will see (weather permitting) the Blood Moon larger than the April 15 Blood Moon. Once it reaches totality, it will be Blood Red for approximately 59 minutes so you can set your alarms and rise early . Maybe you can have your devotions in the back yard, experiencing the incredible, awesome, majesty, greatness and glory of God!
God had an original intent of each constellation as together they tell the story of Jesus’ First coming, the Church Age and His Second Coming. April 15th, the Total Lunar Eclipse covered Book One of the 3 books of Heaven.How do they tell the story? God named all the stars. Each constellation (fixed stars) tell the story by the name God revealed to Adam, Seth and Enoch. The story begins at the brightest star and goes through each star like a chapter in the book.
Below I have listed the main 12 Constellations, each having 3 associated constellations. I have taken my study from the great book by E.W. Bullinger, “The Witness of the Stars”.
- Book One: Virgo, Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius: They all tell of Jesus’ birth and The Sufferings of Christ
- Book Two: Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces and Aries: They tell the story of the Redeemed Church
- Book Three: Taurus, Gemini, Cancer and Leo: They tell of the Glory of the Second Coming of Christ
TRULY AMAZING! The October Blood Moon is from Book Two of the story in the heavens! Below are the constellations involved in the great preview chart from Astronomy.com:
- Eridanus (The River of the Judge) Wrath breaking forth for His enemies (associated with Taurus the Bull of Book Three)
- Aries (The Lamb or Ram) The Lamb that was slain, prepared for victory
- Cetus (The Sea Monster) The great enemy of the bound (associated with Aries the Lamb)
- Pisces (The Fishes) The Redeemed blessed though bound- the fullness of the Church after the Resurrection of Christ
- Andromeda (The Chained Woman) The Redeemed in her bondage and affliction (associated with Pisces, the Fishes)
- Pegasus (The Winged Horse) The blessings coming quickly (associated with Aquarius) ENIF is an orange supergiant star in the nose of the horse.
- Aquarius (The Water Bearer) The Living waters of blessing poured forth for the Redeemed! (I say “Let it Rain Jesus! We need a great awakening!!”)
I feel like the announcer on the movie SeaBiscuit, “Stop the presses, stop the presses!” Remember how excited he was? That is how I felt when I saw the alignment of the October 8th Blood Moon was over Pisces, on the night of the eve of the Feast of Tabernacles!!!
The sign of Pisces has always been interpreted as the nation of Israel. History records that 3 years before the birth of Moses, Jupiter (King Planet) and Saturn (Shabbatai, Lord of the Sabbath) were in conjunction with Pisces (representing the Hebrews, then nation of Israel). Josephus and other historians affirm that Egyptian astronomers interpreted the sign as an indicator that a great man would be born among the Jews.
Why 2 fishes? Because Abraham knew there was a heavenly city he belonged to, but was used of God on this earth. The same with the Church, the Body of Christ. I Peter 2:11 tells us we are ‘foreigners and aliens here”. Our citizenship is in heaven. One of the fishes is swimming towards the North Polar Star and the other fish is on the line of the ecliptic path of the Sun.
The Fishes are tied together by a cord, the constellation called Al Risha, a common bond. Ephesians 2 tells us that the Church and the Jews are joined together to make “One New Man!” From what I see, the heavens are declaring that the Church will stand strong with Israel, with heavenly help from the hosts of Heaven. Jesus, the Lord of Hosts, Jehovah Sabbaoth will be directing the greatest move of God in history. Wait and see! The Bible promises a great victory and the heavens declare with signs!
The Partial Solar Eclipse of October 23rd will be seen best in the northern parts of North America (viewing a 60% eclipse) but all in North American will be able to view it. I live in Texas, by NASA, and we will see it from begin at 4:48 pm with maximum at 5:53pm and should see a 20-40% eclipse.
Thursday, October 23rd I will be ministering in Minneapolis so I should be part of the 60% eclipse viewers.
October 23rd is Tishri 29 on the Hebraic calendar. In Israel it will already be Tishri 30, the anniversary of the Knesset building in Jerusalem. In 1958, the foundation stone was laid for Israel’s Knesset building in Jerusalem. The Knesset is composed of 120 members, the same size as the Great Assembly (“Knesset HaGedola”) that served as the rabbinical body during the Second Temple era. (The Great Assembly redacted the biblical books Ezekiel, Daniel and Esther, and composed many prayers such as the Amidah.) Today, the Israeli Knesset is known as a bastion of democracy in the Middle East, with women, Arabs, and other minorities represented. (Aish.com)
FYI- the eve of the 24th begins the Islam New Year.
Also the eve of Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan, the month of the Flood. Noah and his family entered the Ark on day 10 of Cheshvan. 7 days later it began to rain for 40 days and 40 nights. One year later on Cheshvan 27, the flood waters finally subsided and Noah, his family and the animals left the Ark. I always think of Jesus telling us His 2nd coming would be ‘like the days of Noah”.
Selah and Shalom, Shalom. Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.
From the article: “The answer is, a tetrad lunar eclipse, if it does signify anything, has nothing to do with Jews. The moon is Islam. It has to do with Muslims. And 1493 was indeed a big year for Islam. It was the year they lost Europe. So was 1949, the year the Muslims lost the war against Israel. They were still fighting in 1948. The armistice and defeat was in 1949. If the tetrad lunar eclipses signal something about Jews, it would have been 1948, but 1949 was the defeat of Islam in Israel, not the founding of the State. In 1967 they lost Jerusalem and it happened in 6 days, so that one was on the dot.”
