My Prophetic Bailey Vision
Background and Introductions
I live in Nebraska. One of the many things I’ve learned from my father is that western Nebraska has an extremely large water aquifer underneath it. Even since I was a boy, I’ve had family and taken trips from Nebraska to Denver and the mountains surrounding it. Over the last three years I’ve been blessed by God to know Kellie, my fiancé’. She lived in Indian Hills, which is a mountain town about 40 minutes or so outside of Denver. Also, over these three years Kellie and I have been able to take 3 trips to Denver and the mountains. We both feel God has shared great insight and given us promises and visions there. We have been greatly blessed by these trips. It really is hard to get away as Kellie has 5 children and I have 3. As God would have it, we are about to embark on our 4th great trip to Denver, and we actually are going to be staying in Bailey, Co. Maybe you remember hearing something in the news recently about Bailey, Co. If you recall it was where some children were held hostage and were even killed in a horrible incident that was all over the news. Not too long after this, there was a similar incident in Pennsylvania that happened in an Amish community. I strongly feel this was a demonic attack – and “not for no good reason” as you can imagine someone from the Midwest saying (ha, ha).
Aquifers, Mountains & Moses
At the start of this article I mentioned about my father, the large western Nebraska aquifer and my history of trips to the Colorado Mountains. I thought I’d start off with a little interesting speculation. Those of you who have read anything I’ve written know I love to speculate about what God is doing. I surely don’t know everything and sometimes I don’t know anything, but I do try and “seek and find God with all my heart.” Jack Kelley is the Author of many articles at: www.gracethrufaith.com . I am very thankful to him for the prophetic learning, deep insight, blending Old & New Testament and various other tidbits of knowledge. I’d like to point to a portion of his writing regarding where Israel stayed while Moses went up to meet with YHWH:
Mt. Sinai ... a Case in Point
When Constantine converted to Christianity back in the early 300's his mother Queen Helena did as well and, based on dreams she had, went through out the Middle East "locating' various Holy Places. Among them was Mt. Sinai, which she placed in the Desert of Sin resulting in the region being called the Sinai Peninsula. Several facts from the Bible argue against this. First, the area is not a suitable encampment for the number of people Moses led out of Egypt (over 1 million). It lacks both sufficient space and a source of water. Second, though they spent years at the foot of Mt. Sinai not a speck of evidence has ever been found to confirm their presence there. Third the Sinai Peninsula is in Egypt on the wrong side of the Red Sea, and from history we know that it was regularly patrolled by Egyptian troops due to mining operations they had there. In spite of this, for hundreds of years Scholars have clung to her location. There's even a large monastery atop the mountain. Instead of concluding they had the wrong spot based on Biblical accounts, they've discounted the Word of God; and since they can't find supporting evidence where they're looking, some even doubt whether the event ever took place.
Meanwhile on the other side of the Red Sea in Saudi Arabia there's a mountain burned black on the top (Ex. 19:18) that Arabs have known about for centuries. It's called Jabal al Lawz or Jabal Mousa (Mountain of Moses). Nearby are the grave of Jethro, priest of Midian and father-in-law of Moses, (Ex 18:1) and the springs Elim with their 70 palms (Ex 15:27). At the foot of the mountain boundary pillars can be found (Ex 19:12) along with an altar and an enormous split rock with a huge catch basin at its foot large enough to contain a small lake of fresh water (Ex 17:5-7). There's even an Egyptian petroglyph depicting a golden calf. Saudi Arabia was once called Midian and is on the eastern side of the Red Sea across the water from Egypt right where Mt. Sinai belongs. So now comes the question, how did they get across?
(whole article: http://www.gracethrufaith.com/childrens-stories/crossing-the-red-sea)
My point is this, that for me, I believe even though its underground there is this huge aquifer (or catch basin) in western Nebraska on the way up to the mountains of Colorado. I think it is a very good parallel to Moses and where he received the Ten Commandments.
First Trip to Colorado
Kellie had lived in a few places in the mountains of Colorado for eight years before I knew her. She had been previously married, and her former husband was both physically and emotionally abusive. It was both hard and healing for Kellie to go back to where much of this occurred. We went together over a July 4th holiday. She knows quite a few people who live in some of the small towns that she lived in the eight years she was there. We were supposed to stay with someone and it didn’t end up working out. We needed an alternative place to stay. Kellie did know of a bed and breakfast place in Indian Hills. We went there late at night and the wife of this older couple who owned the Inn remembered Kellie, her daughters and their “little bonnets”. The man gave me a remarkable deal for a room. When we got to the room we were amazed. It really is hard to describe. The room was called the “Garden room”. It was decorated as if it were really a garden with branches and birds even coming out of the wall. We jumped around and were so excited like two little school children. We knew with all our hearts that God had done this for us.
Before I go into the other trips I’ll tell you what I’ve noticed about them:
1. There is some aspect of battle, warfare, taking ground, etc.
2. There is a great vision of Paradise, beauty and fulfillment in every way as we know YHWH has promised us.
For this trip, it really was quite a battle for Kellie to face and begin to overcome all of this past that was quite hurtful for her. She was really quite brave as she talked to so many people. What she found was lots of love and support. We went to service in the mountain church she had attended there before. In fact, she had lived in the Parsonage next to it. We visited the Pastor and his wife. The Pastor had his Master’s in counseling and was quite good to visit with.
Let me digress here for a moment. Kellie and I have gone to a Christian counseling office here in Nebraska where the Pastor and his wife both counsel. I wouldn’t be here still fighting on and surviving if it weren’t for them, their insight, help and healing. I really am quite grateful. I am so glad for Kellie’s experience in going back to this Church. I don’t think the Church as a whole really understands emotional hurts. These are strongholds Satan has purposely planted in our lives. Much of these are back in childhood. Once they are there, along with the generational curses, it really is hard to break. Many people come in through the Church doors “emotionally handicapped” and we treat them quite poorly. Many don’t attend Church because they have already been hurt by legalism. They really do want to get well and please God. I relate it like this…if someone came in with a physical handicap, like a wheelchair, you would never say to them, “you can’t attend this church because you can’t walk.” But with emotional handicaps, we do this all the time. Someone comes in and they can’t yet walk, and they need Jesus to heal them. This is the Church’s call, and we fail it miserably.
Sorry about that rant, but I really do think it’s quite important. We laugh at the Pharisees and then we recreate them all over again. Anyway, the second part of this is that God shared a great, last minute, miracle vision of the Garden room. I could not have planned it or provided for it. It really was quite a surprise, and a wonderful one at that. I wish I could do it justice. But, we are just getting started. Each trip becomes more exciting! Read on for more…
Second Trip to Colorado
Our second trip to Colorado was centered on a Denver Broncos football game. To some, this may not seem very spiritual. To me, in so many ways God has spoken so tenderly into my heart through football. The Broncos were playing a playoff game against the New England Patriots. The significant play of the game came on a 99 yard interception return. Champ Bailey was tackled on the 1 yard line in an attempt to thwart the touchdown. The Broncos scored on the next set of plays and also won the game. Champ Bailey’s number is 24. This is a spiritually significant number. This theme continues into my third trip, which involves a small mountain town called “Bailey, Colorado”.
Third Trip to Colorado
Our third trip to Colorado provided lots and lots of deep meaning and I believe spiritual significance. We went up to see Broncos training camp. Their camp takes place in Englewood, CO, just a little outside of Denver. This place is significant to me. Though I’ve lived in Omaha, NE or the surrounding area all my life (except for when I was in the Navy, I lived and was stationed in San Diego, CA for a little under two years), my mom periodically took me to see my great grandfather who lived in Englewood, CO. I have many fond memories there. He taught me how to ride a bike, and my mom said he even put me on his lap with my hands on the steering wheel while he was driving the car. His name was Grandpa Rex. I didn’t know this until recently, but Rex means “king”. I will expand more on this as I insert a family trip I took between my third and fourth trips to Colorado (see below).
Knowing we’d see quite a few memorable things, I bought a digital camera (my first experience with a “digital camera) in Denver. I also had bought a Broncos jersey that said “4 Jesus” on the back where player names usually go. I also have one that says “YHWH” on it. Both are have the number “7” on it. I am a big John Elway fan and in the past I would never think of having a jersey with a “7” on it (John Elway was number 7) with anything but Elway. At one point God had me learn not to put anything before him. After prayer one day, I gave away all my football collectables. This was thousands of dollars worth of stuff. I say this so that you know God has taught me not to “idolize” football or anything else. When you come fully through giving things over to him, he will lovingly give them back to you where you will find even greater joy. He has great and personal things for us. Once we learn that they can’t come before him, he will richly bless us and cause our “cups to overflow”. This is so much better than “idolizing” anything. Anyway, I digress.
We went to training camp which is quite an experience. We saw “warriors” at ground level, all doing their thing. I took many pictures and was like a little boy watching his football. Kellie was a fantastic support and enjoyed it with me. It was so amazing that all this was taking place in Englewood, CO, where I had my enjoyment with my Great Grandfather Rex. I also found out that my grandfather had played semi-pro football as a cornerback. Remember it was Champ Bailey, who plays cornerback and is #24 who intercepted the pass for the most significant play in the Broncos win over the Patriots in or previous trip. Amazing all that God has miraculously intertwined! To be sure, God does this with the universe, but even more amazing – he does it in such an intricate and personal way with each one of us! He loves and he cares! “He knit you in the womb…”
There were so many details I could tell you about, but I’ll just mention the major ones so that this story is not too lengthy. At the very end of our trip Kellie took me to a place where she had lived. It was a place that in her former marriage, she was physically attacked, even as she was pregnant. She took me to Bailey, CO, a small town in the Rocky Mountains outside of Denver. She lived in the mountains in various small towns for eight years. We went outside of town to go out by where she had lived. Kellie has quite an eye for beauty and is wonderfully artistic. We got out by these ranches, which were amazing. She took me by one called “KZ Ranch”. I was in awe. Their up in the mountains was a lush green meadow, with a clear stream running through it. You could see the snow capped, mountain tops in the background. Meanwhile beautiful, free horses were running around in the pasture. It was all so beautiful and truly a land flowing with milk and honey. I wrote about this at my website and feel God shared with me this vision – “My home the Kingdom of Heaven”. I took many, many pictures. The name Bailey means “steward” Indeed, when God gives us such great treasures, we are not owners, but rather stewards. Bailey has a close meaning with steward and yeoman. I was a yeoman in the Navy serving the Captain. This is an amazing testimony. The story is at my website as well.
When I got home I tried to process the pictures. Somehow in my newness to the digital camera all the pictures were lost and deleted. I was heartbroken, and I also broke the news to Kellie. We both have an appreciation for pictures and also believe that God shared something personal and deep here with us. The pictures were gone. I tried everything and they were simply gone. I did write a story about this vision as I mentioned before and it’s at my website (www.tony4yhwh.com).
Trip to Kansas
I had promised my daughter a dog. In my heart I wanted one also but was waiting for the right time. We wanted to get an English Springer Spaniel. My father grew up with this breed of dog and he is very smart about animals, so I took his advice. I decided on a system to pick the dogs name where we all would get to have input on names we liked and disliked. I made sure I couldn’t trump any of the kids choices. My son Austin’s name won out. The name he picked and that won was Rex. Again Rex means king. I checked with a local vet, who gave me a name of a breeder. The local breeder had all their litter accounted for, but gave me the name of a breeder in Kansas. They had a website and I called and it so happens that they are a Christian family. I love the quote on the site “every good and perfect thing comes from above.” She sent pictures of the dog to us and the one we picked happened to be the runt of the litter. He had beautiful markings. He is black and white and had perfect white “river” marking running down the black on his back. We waited until the dog was 8 weeks old and I planned a trip. My fiancé, Kellie went with us. We stayed overnight in a place called “The Great Wolf Lodge”. We did this over Labor Day this year, and it’s about a three hour trip from Omaha. I figured 3 hours down, and 3 hours back with a dog and 3 children was too much for one day. Why not stay at a great family place, like Great Wolf Lodge and make it a family event? We stayed there and it did remind me of Noah’s Ark. It was big huge and had many, many rooms. It has a whole water park on the inside. When I went out to the parking lot I was shocked by a license plate I saw – it said “YHWH”. Amazing, how many of those could be out there? I had my football jersey with YHWH on it. Amazing! On our way back there was some rain and we saw an awesome two sided rainbow. It was an amazing trip. Rex now is anything but a runt. The vet is amazed at how big and strong he already is. We love our dog that I know God prepared for us.
Bailey, Co School Attack
I won’t spend a lot of time on this but I’m sure you heard and know about the attacks on the Bailey school children and the death. Very sad story. Considering what God had shared with Kellie and I, the nature of the attack and the timing, I consider this a spiritual attack of a very dark nature.
Fourth trip to Bailey, Colorado!
I am writing this as I am about ready to depart on this trip. I will write about it when I return. Here are some things I’m looking at regarding this trip:
· There seems much may prophetically happen before the end of 2006 and possibly on New Years Eve.
· Colorado is in the news for two huge snow storms. This does not surprise me, and I plan to still go to Bailey, Co (though it will likely be hard to get there).
· Kellie and I have fantastic seats (luxury box 50 yard line!)for the Broncos last game of the season. It will be the first time I am able to see rookie QB Jay Cutler play. He is number 6 and was drafted 11th this year. A player actually has his number 4 times on his jersey. If you add these numbers together you get the number 24. Champ Bailey, Denver’s most talented player is #24. Cutler’s college team is called the Commodores which is a rank above Captain in the Navy (see my Navy testimony). The Commodores where gold helmets.
· Saddam Hussein may be hung on the gallows this weekend. Very sudden and very spiritually significant. Much is happening regarding the story of Esther.
So much more, but I can only continue to write the story as the story is played out (you have to live life, before you write about it!).
Blessings and love,
Tony

Esther Rapture Update - Vashti & now Haman!
Doves,
If December 22nd was the date that Vashti was deposed and the search for the Virgin replacement began (Hadassah or Esther)
(see other posts):
http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/dec2006/marilyna1224.htm
I’m with Marilyn and Jang Hyuk Son. I’m not a mythology expert, so I believe Marilyn if she says she is Esther and the replacement. This makes sense since in the mythology she was portrayed as good. Anyway, Vashti is deposed and the search for Esther is on…
On Fox’s website the Giant Squid story on December 22nd read “Behold the Kraken” and almost as soon as I posted that they changed the headline to something else. Hmmm…this is what put me on to this since I’ve watched the movie “Clash of the Titans” but didn’t know a Giant Squid was a Kraken, except the headline that was taken away:
http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/dec2006/tonye1223-2.htm
Also this:
http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/dec2006/tonye1223-4.htm
As has been recounted Esther is called up by Xerxes in the month of Tebeth/Tevet which started December 22nd and runs through Tebeth/Tevet 29 or January 19th.
Also very important in this story is Haman and his own plot backfiring on him as he ends up being hung on the very gallows that he meant for Mordecai.
I have been following the Saddam Hussein story and noticed that he was to be “hung on the gallows”. I felt, as many did, that the day he was dug out of the hole by the American troops looking rather haggard, that it was a victory and held spiritual significance. This is a man who mistreated many, as recounted in the trial and also began rebuilding old Babylon. I definitely think it’s relevant that Saddam is being hung during this time as his appeal is finished and he is to be hanged in the next 30 days. I see that falling into our timeframe. It seems with some “spiritual eyes” we may be seeing some of the story of Esther taking place right now.

I am interested in anyone else’s input to this development as well!
Blessings,

Moon Home Mansions
"Moon Home"
I have been hesitant to post this since it’s a fairly bizarre concept, but I took some notes on it back in September. I thought it would be good at this point simply to post it for further speculation.
I decided to do this because of what I’ve seen NASA doing. For man to do this (see headline and story below) – there has to be something to it where Satan is trying to undo a plan by God. Surely Satan wants to have man exalt himself, but I think there is more to it than that. Could Satan be using his knowledge to try and hinder God’s future plans?
NASA Plans to Build Permanent Moon Base
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,234321,00.html
I am not a birth expert but woman was taken out of the side of man. There are scientists and not necessarily biblical ones that believe this was a possibility with the moon. You can read my notes. Please know that they are not anything, but just that – notes. I am also continuing to look at Rosh Chodesh (December 22nd this month) as I believe that these things are potentially tied in together: 1. moon 2. numbers 22 and 11 (also, the dates of this month working towards the 24th which is the number for heavenly government 22nd – new moon, 23 a step as in the 23rd Psalm and then 24 as in Heavenly Government and of course Christmas even, maybe the conception of Jesus 3. birth 4. rapture 5. Hanukkah 6. Christmas 7. conception, etc.
Here is a little bit to whet your appetite:
1. Early speculation proposed that the Moon broke off from the Earth's crust due to centrifugal force, leaving an ocean basin (presumed to be the Pacific Ocean) behind as a scar.
2. In the symbology of the Scriptures the moon sometimes denotes the mother of the family, as in Joseph’s dream (Gen 37) and both the woman and the moon are representatives of the Church. As the woman was made out of the side of Adam while He slept, so the Church was made out of Christ by means of that deep sleep of death which came upon Him, and to which He submitted for the purpose. – from Gospel in the Stars, Joseph A. Seiss
3. Also from the book Gospel in the Stars by Joseph A. Seiss – “But ancient astronomy gives a further subdivision of these twelve signs into twenty-eight, called the Mansions of the Moon, or the Lunar Zodiac. The moon makes its revolution around the earth in about twenty-eight days, and so suggests the division of its course through the heavens into twenty-eight sections, or steps, one for each day. “
My thoughts:
1. Possibly God took Eden from the side of Earth to birth New Jerusalem, which is what we know as our moon. In Revelation 9 we are told that the Abyss is opened up from inside the earth. Is it possible God took Eden in the form of our moon to rapture to the sky, the 1st heaven his saints until the proper time when he would put his foot on the Mount of Olives, creating the greatest earthquake ever and then re-planting the Moon/Garden back here on earth as New Jerusalem?
2. Also, Daniel’s prophecy with the “Rock” that comes to earth to destroy the feet of the image and becomes the Kingdom. Could this heavenly rock be the moon?
Here’s the notes – have fun and I’d love to hear more thoughts!
Blessings, Tony

Moon home???
Rocket to the MOON!!!???
Rosh Chodesh – Jewish monthly observance of new moon
“Behold, he comes with clouds and every eye shall see him.” (Rev. 1:7) The Son (sun) is the “light of the world” and is seen by everyone.
"There shall be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars." - Jesus Christ, Luke 21:25
Revelation 12:1[ The Woman and the Dragon ] A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.

· Eden and/or New Jerusalem contained in moon, taken from earth (many moons ago – ha, ha)

While unmanned Soviet probes did reach the moon before any U.S. craft, American Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the lunar surface, after landing on July 20, 1969.
The Moon is the Solar System's fifth largest moon and is also the fifth most massive moon.
It is the only celestial body other than the Earth upon which humans have set foot.
The Moon is in synchronous rotation, meaning that it keeps nearly the same face turned toward Earth at all times (there is a small variation, called libration
The far side is also sometimes called the "dark side", which means "unknown and hidden", and not "lacking light" as might seem to be implied by the name; in fact, the far side receives (on average) as much sunlight as the near side.
The Moon makes a complete orbit about the Earth approximately once every 27.3 days; unlike most satellites of other planets, the Moon orbits near the ecliptic and not the Earth's equatorial plane.
The Earth-Moon system may be considered to be a double planet rather than a planet-moon system.[3] This is due to the exceptionally large size of the Moon relative to its host planet; the Moon is one-fourth the diameter of Earth and 1/81 the mass. However, as the barycenter is located within the Earth, the Earth-Moon system does not meet the official IAU definition of a double planet. With the exception of Pluto and its satellite Charon, no other object in the Solar System has an orbiting body with more than 1/4000 of the host object's mass.
Origin and history
The inclination of the Moon's orbit makes it implausible that the Moon formed along with the Earth or was captured later; its origin is the subject of some scientific debate.
Early speculation proposed that the Moon broke off from the Earth's crust due to centrifugal force, leaving an ocean basin (presumed to be the Pacific Ocean) behind as a scar. This concept requires too great an initial spin of the Earth and the presumption of a Pacific origin is not compatible with the geological standard model, the theory of plate tectonics. Others speculated the Moon formed elsewhere and was captured into its orbit. Two of the other theories include the coformation or condensation theory and the impact theory, which speculates that the Moon formed from the debris that resulted from a collision between the early Earth and a planetesimal.
The Giant Impact hypothesis holds that the Moon formed from the ejecta resulting from a collision between a very early, semi-molten Earth and a planet-like object the size of Mars, which has been referred to as Theia or Orpheus. The material ejected from this impact would have gathered in orbit around Earth and formed the Moon. This hypothesis is bolstered by two main observations: First, the composition of the Moon resembles that of Earth's crust, though it has relatively few heavy elements that would have been present if it formed by itself out of the same material from which Earth formed. Second, through radiometric dating, it has been determined that the Moon's crust formed between 20 and 30 million years after that of Earth, despite its smallness and associated larger loss of internal heat, although it has been suggested that this hypothesis does not adequately address the abundance of volatile elements in the moon.[4]
Eclipses
Main article: Eclipse
Eclipses happen only if Sun, Earth, and Moon are lined up. Solar eclipses can only occur near a new moon; lunar eclipses can only occur near a full moon.
The angular diameters of the Moon and the Sun as seen from Earth overlap in their variation, so that both total and annular solar eclipses are possible. In a total eclipse, the Moon completely covers the disc of the Sun and the solar corona becomes visible to the naked eye.
Since the distance between the Moon and the Earth is very slightly increasing over time, the angular diameter of the Moon is decreasing. This means that hundreds of millions of years ago the Moon could always completely cover the Sun on solar eclipses so that no annular eclipses were possible. Likewise, about 600 million years from now (assuming that the angular diameter of the Sun will not change), the Moon will no longer cover the Sun completely and total eclipses will not occur.
Man in the Moon

For the J.R.R. Tolkien folklore, see Man in the Moon (Middle-earth). You may also be looking for Man on the Moon
An image of the Man in the Moon in the film Le Voyage dans la Lune.
The Man in the Moon is a figure resembling a human face, perceived in the full Moon in some cultures. The figure is composed of large dark areas (the lunar maria, or seas) on the Moon's surface. The figure's eyes are the Mare Imbrium and Mare Serenitatis, its nose is the Sinus Aestuum, and its open mouth is the Mare Nubium and Mare Cognitum
There is also a Talmudic tradition, that Jacob is on the moon, although no such mention appears in the Bible. Another tradition, both Christian and Jewish, claims him as Cain, the Wanderer, forever doomed to circle the Earth. Dante's Inferno alludes to this:
"For now doth Cain with fork of thorns confine On either hemisphere, touching the wave Beneath the towers of Seville. Yesternight The moon was round."
Man in the Moon (Middle-earth)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth folklore as set forth from the Hobbits, the Man in the Moon is described as being an old being who secretly hid on the island of the Moon, and built his minaret there. Combined with the Elven lore, as presented in the legendarium of Silmarillion, the Man in the Moon of the Hobbits' tales must have his origins in the legend of Tilion the Maia.
This is alluded to further in Tolkien's Roverandom, where the Man in the Moon also lives in a Minaret.
In The Book of Lost Tales, his name is given as Uolë Kúvion, but the tale of how he came to live there was never fully told.
The Moon in mythology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
The Moon has figured in many mythologies, often paired or contrasted with the Sun (see also Solar deity).
The monthly cycle of the moon, in contrast to the annual cycle of the sun's path, has been implicitly linked to women's menstrual cycles by many cultures, although rarely explicitly stated.
The Gospel of the Stars by Joseph A. Seiss
Pg 76. Astarte, called Aphrodite by the Greeks and Venus by the Romans, and that she here appears in the form into which she metamorphosed herself to escape the advances and power of the horrible Typhoon. Asarte was the moon-goddess, the great mother, the embodiment of the dependent but ever productive feminine principle. In the symbology of the Scriptures the moon sometimes denotes the mother of the family, as in Joseph’s dream (Gen 37) and both the woman and the moon are representatives of the Church. As the woman was made out of the side of Adam while He slept, so the Church was made out of Christ by means of that deep sleep of death which came upon Him, and to which He submitted for the purpose. The whole mystery of marriage is the symbol of the union between Christ and His Church (Eph 5:23-32). Everywhere the congregation of believers is pictured as the spouse of Christ, the spiritual woman, the mother of us all. And if this fish represents the Astarte of the pagan religion, we have only to strip off the heathen impurities, and understand the reference in the sense and application of the Scripture symbols, in order to find here a picture of the regenerate people of God, the Church, the bride of Christ, the mother of saints.
Pg. 141. But the markings of the heavens are not exhausted by what pertains to the Solar Zodiac and its Decans. There is also a Lunar Zodiac. It consists of the same belt as the Solar Zodiac, but divides that belt into twenty-eight in place of twelve parts or steps; and these twenty-eight are called the Mansions of the Moon. To each of these twenty-eight steps a particular name is given. In the Indian astronomy each of these steps or Mansions also had a particular figure additional to the name; but the figures are not invariably the same. In China and Arabia the names are more uniform, but are given without figures or emblems. The Parsis also had the Lunar Zodiac, and made much of it.
Astronomers agree in regarding the Lunar Zodiac as containing the most ancient remains of the science of the stars.
The Lunar Zodiac is manifestly from the same source as the Solar, and great importance was attached to it wherever the knowledge of it was preserved in living observance. In Arabia and in India from time immemorial these Mansions of the Moon held place and rank equal, if not superior, to the Solar Zodiac, and are found interwoven with all poetry and science, and incorporated not only into the worship and mythology, but also into various customs of private life. Children there are still frequently named according to the Lunar Mansions under which they were born.
There is, therefore, every reason to expect, if it was meant that the stars should carry a prophetic record of the Gospel, that we would find it also in the arrangement and naming of these Lunar Mansions. And, as we would anticipate, so it really is.
NAMES OF THE LUNARE MANSIONS
Christ was predicted as “the Desire of nations” “the Desire of women” and so the first of these Mansions is name Al Awa, the Desired. Christ was foretold as “the Branch”, “God’s Servant the Branch”, “the Branch of Righteousness” who shall execute judgment, and the like; and the second of these Mansions is called Simak al Azel, Branch of the Power of God. It was predicted of Christ that His soul shold be made an offering of sin (Isa. 53:10): “He is the propitiation for our sins and for the sins of the whole world.” And so the third of these Mansions bears the name Caphir, the Atonement, the Propitiation by sacrifice.
These three Mansions correspond to Virgo. Christ was everywhere promised as the Redeemer, the Savior, He who should bring redemption; and the fourth of these Mansions is named Al Zubena, the redeeming, the regaining by purchase, the buying back. When Christ died he said, “It is finished;” and the fifth of these Mansions is named Al Iclil, the complete submission.
These two names answer to Libra and so the list proceeds in strict accord with the scriptural prophecies and descriptions of the Seed of the woman. Thus:
Corresponding to Scorpio: the cleaving or wounding, the sting, the deadly wound.
Corresponding to Sagittarius: the gracious, the delighted in, hastily coming as to judgment.
Corresponding to Capricornus: the sacrifice slain
Corresponding to Aquarius: witness of the rising or drinking in, witness of the swimming or outpouring, the fountain of outpouring.
Corresponding to Pisces: the progeny of the ancient times, the progeny of latter times, the band, the joined together.
Corresponding to Aries: the wounded that was cut off, the treading under foot, the enemy punished.
Corresponding to Taurus: the Leader, the Governor, the Subduer, the driving away.
Corresponding to Gemini: the wounded in the foot, the ill-treated.
Corresponding to Cancer: the treasure, the possession, the healed, the delivered, the saved.
Corresponding to Leo: the exaltation, the Prince, the heaped-up, as sin and delayed punishment, the burning, the funeral-pyre.
The whole series of these names thus runs parallel with the signs of the Solar Zodiac, and ends up precisely in the same way, proving that they are of a piece with it.
Pg. 17. THE MANSIONS OF THE MOON
But ancient astronomy gives a further subdivision of these twelve signs into twenty-eight, called the Mansions of the Moon, or the Lunar Zodiac. The moon makes its revolution around the earth in about twenty-eight days, and so suggests the division of its course through the heavens into twenty-eight sections, or steps, one for each day. Two and a third of these sections or Mansions are embraced in each sign of the Solar Zodiac, and each mansion is marked with its own particular name and smaller group of stars. Some Oriental nations also had particular and separate sets of figures for the designation of these Lunar Mansions, though not uniformly the same. It is rather from the names of these Mansions, and of the stars in them, than from the figures connected with them, that the significations are to be learned, the main theme being most commandingly given in the twelve cardinal signs of which they are a part.
Tony’s thoughts:
Eve was formed from the side of Adam. The Church was formed from the side, and blood of Christ on the cross (he was pierced by a spear in his side of which flowed both water and blood, tools for the Church, living water and baptism along with the blood of Christ which sets us free).
Possibly God took Eden from the side of Earth to birth New Jerusalem, which is what we know as our moon. In Revelation 9 we are told that the Abyss is opened up from inside the earth. Is it possible God took Eden in the form of our moon to rapture to the sky, the 1st heaven his saints until the proper time when he would put his foot on the Mount of Olives, creating the greatest earthquake ever and then re-planting the Moon/Garden back here on earth as New Jerusalem?
Also, Daniel’s prophecy with the “Rock” that comes to earth to destroy the feet of the image and becomes the Kingdom. Could this heavenly rock be the moon?
"You looked, O king, and there before you stood a large statue—an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay. While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were broken to pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. (Daniel 3:31-35)
A rock was cut out. The moon. Could this have been Eden from earth? Cut out from earth, like Eve was taken from Adam’s side and the Church was born from Jesus’ side (water and blood – birth). If earth can house Apollyon, cannot the moon house “Paradise” or “Eden”, possibly the New Jerusalem???
Revelation 9:11 (New International Version)
11They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon.[a]

I have been hesitant to post this since it’s a fairly bizarre concept, but I took some notes on it back in September. I thought it would be good at this point simply to post it for further speculation.
I decided to do this because of what I’ve seen NASA doing. For man to do this (see headline and story below) – there has to be something to it where Satan is trying to undo a plan by God. Surely Satan wants to have man exalt himself, but I think there is more to it than that. Could Satan be using his knowledge to try and hinder God’s future plans?

I am not a birth expert but woman was taken out of the side of man. There are scientists and not necessarily biblical ones that believe this was a possibility with the moon. You can read my notes. Please know that they are not anything, but just that – notes. I am also continuing to look at Rosh Chodesh (December 22nd this month) as I believe that these things are potentially tied in together: 1. moon 2. numbers 22 and 11 (also, the dates of this month working towards the 24th which is the number for heavenly government 22nd – new moon, 23 a step as in the 23rd Psalm and then 24 as in Heavenly Government and of course Christmas even, maybe the conception of Jesus 3. birth 4. rapture 5. Hanukkah 6. Christmas 7. conception, etc.
Here is a little bit to whet your appetite:
1. Early speculation proposed that the Moon broke off from the Earth's crust due to centrifugal force, leaving an ocean basin (presumed to be the Pacific Ocean) behind as a scar.
2. In the symbology of the Scriptures the moon sometimes denotes the mother of the family, as in Joseph’s dream (Gen 37) and both the woman and the moon are representatives of the Church. As the woman was made out of the side of Adam while He slept, so the Church was made out of Christ by means of that deep sleep of death which came upon Him, and to which He submitted for the purpose. – from Gospel in the Stars, Joseph A. Seiss
3. Also from the book Gospel in the Stars by Joseph A. Seiss – “But ancient astronomy gives a further subdivision of these twelve signs into twenty-eight, called the Mansions of the Moon, or the Lunar Zodiac. The moon makes its revolution around the earth in about twenty-eight days, and so suggests the division of its course through the heavens into twenty-eight sections, or steps, one for each day. “

Rosh Chodesh – Jewish monthly observance of new moon
“Behold, he comes with clouds and every eye shall see him.” (Rev. 1:7) The Son (sun) is the “light of the world” and is seen by everyone.
"There shall be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars." - Jesus Christ, Luke 21:25
Revelation 12:1[ The Woman and the Dragon ] A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.

While unmanned Soviet probes did reach the moon before any U.S. craft, American Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the lunar surface, after landing on July 20, 1969.
The Moon is the Solar System's fifth largest moon and is also the fifth most massive moon.
It is the only celestial body other than the Earth upon which humans have set foot.
The Moon is in synchronous rotation, meaning that it keeps nearly the same face turned toward Earth at all times (there is a small variation, called libration
The far side is also sometimes called the "dark side", which means "unknown and hidden", and not "lacking light" as might seem to be implied by the name; in fact, the far side receives (on average) as much sunlight as the near side.
The Moon makes a complete orbit about the Earth approximately once every 27.3 days; unlike most satellites of other planets, the Moon orbits near the ecliptic and not the Earth's equatorial plane.
The Earth-Moon system may be considered to be a double planet rather than a planet-moon system.[3] This is due to the exceptionally large size of the Moon relative to its host planet; the Moon is one-fourth the diameter of Earth and 1/81 the mass. However, as the barycenter is located within the Earth, the Earth-Moon system does not meet the official IAU definition of a double planet. With the exception of Pluto and its satellite Charon, no other object in the Solar System has an orbiting body with more than 1/4000 of the host object's mass.
Origin and history
The inclination of the Moon's orbit makes it implausible that the Moon formed along with the Earth or was captured later; its origin is the subject of some scientific debate.
Early speculation proposed that the Moon broke off from the Earth's crust due to centrifugal force, leaving an ocean basin (presumed to be the Pacific Ocean) behind as a scar. This concept requires too great an initial spin of the Earth and the presumption of a Pacific origin is not compatible with the geological standard model, the theory of plate tectonics. Others speculated the Moon formed elsewhere and was captured into its orbit. Two of the other theories include the coformation or condensation theory and the impact theory, which speculates that the Moon formed from the debris that resulted from a collision between the early Earth and a planetesimal.
The Giant Impact hypothesis holds that the Moon formed from the ejecta resulting from a collision between a very early, semi-molten Earth and a planet-like object the size of Mars, which has been referred to as Theia or Orpheus. The material ejected from this impact would have gathered in orbit around Earth and formed the Moon. This hypothesis is bolstered by two main observations: First, the composition of the Moon resembles that of Earth's crust, though it has relatively few heavy elements that would have been present if it formed by itself out of the same material from which Earth formed. Second, through radiometric dating, it has been determined that the Moon's crust formed between 20 and 30 million years after that of Earth, despite its smallness and associated larger loss of internal heat, although it has been suggested that this hypothesis does not adequately address the abundance of volatile elements in the moon.[4]
Eclipses
Main article: Eclipse
Eclipses happen only if Sun, Earth, and Moon are lined up. Solar eclipses can only occur near a new moon; lunar eclipses can only occur near a full moon.
The angular diameters of the Moon and the Sun as seen from Earth overlap in their variation, so that both total and annular solar eclipses are possible. In a total eclipse, the Moon completely covers the disc of the Sun and the solar corona becomes visible to the naked eye.
Since the distance between the Moon and the Earth is very slightly increasing over time, the angular diameter of the Moon is decreasing. This means that hundreds of millions of years ago the Moon could always completely cover the Sun on solar eclipses so that no annular eclipses were possible. Likewise, about 600 million years from now (assuming that the angular diameter of the Sun will not change), the Moon will no longer cover the Sun completely and total eclipses will not occur.

An image of the Man in the Moon in the film Le Voyage dans la Lune.
The Man in the Moon is a figure resembling a human face, perceived in the full Moon in some cultures. The figure is composed of large dark areas (the lunar maria, or seas) on the Moon's surface. The figure's eyes are the Mare Imbrium and Mare Serenitatis, its nose is the Sinus Aestuum, and its open mouth is the Mare Nubium and Mare Cognitum
There is also a Talmudic tradition, that Jacob is on the moon, although no such mention appears in the Bible. Another tradition, both Christian and Jewish, claims him as Cain, the Wanderer, forever doomed to circle the Earth. Dante's Inferno alludes to this:
"For now doth Cain with fork of thorns confine On either hemisphere, touching the wave Beneath the towers of Seville. Yesternight The moon was round."

In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth folklore as set forth from the Hobbits, the Man in the Moon is described as being an old being who secretly hid on the island of the Moon, and built his minaret there. Combined with the Elven lore, as presented in the legendarium of Silmarillion, the Man in the Moon of the Hobbits' tales must have his origins in the legend of Tilion the Maia.
This is alluded to further in Tolkien's Roverandom, where the Man in the Moon also lives in a Minaret.
In The Book of Lost Tales, his name is given as Uolë Kúvion, but the tale of how he came to live there was never fully told.
The Moon in mythology

The Moon has figured in many mythologies, often paired or contrasted with the Sun (see also Solar deity).
The monthly cycle of the moon, in contrast to the annual cycle of the sun's path, has been implicitly linked to women's menstrual cycles by many cultures, although rarely explicitly stated.
The Gospel of the Stars by Joseph A. Seiss
Pg 76. Astarte, called Aphrodite by the Greeks and Venus by the Romans, and that she here appears in the form into which she metamorphosed herself to escape the advances and power of the horrible Typhoon. Asarte was the moon-goddess, the great mother, the embodiment of the dependent but ever productive feminine principle. In the symbology of the Scriptures the moon sometimes denotes the mother of the family, as in Joseph’s dream (Gen 37) and both the woman and the moon are representatives of the Church. As the woman was made out of the side of Adam while He slept, so the Church was made out of Christ by means of that deep sleep of death which came upon Him, and to which He submitted for the purpose. The whole mystery of marriage is the symbol of the union between Christ and His Church (Eph 5:23-32). Everywhere the congregation of believers is pictured as the spouse of Christ, the spiritual woman, the mother of us all. And if this fish represents the Astarte of the pagan religion, we have only to strip off the heathen impurities, and understand the reference in the sense and application of the Scripture symbols, in order to find here a picture of the regenerate people of God, the Church, the bride of Christ, the mother of saints.

Exon Valdez, 17 and The Captain
From a personal One of the reasons I feel so confident that something will happen soon is that it is 17 years from what I feel was “My Prophetic Experience in the Navy.” If you would like to read about it go to:

This news story happened to come up yet again today.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,238311,00.html
It is the continuing saga of the Oil Spill that happened in Alaska, Prince William Sound 17 years ago.
Since, I’ve already written the story I’ll simply point you to it. If you are interested please feel free to read it.
17 is quite a remarkable number (* info from “Numbers in Scripture” by E.W. Bullinger)
Prime number (not divisible by any other number)
7th on the list of prime numbers
Combination of two “perfect” numbers 10 and 7, 7 being spiritual perfection and 10 ordinal perfection
Romans 8:35-39
First we have a series of 7 then a series of 10. The seven are marked off by being put in the form of a question, while the ten are given as the answer to it.
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?” Shall
Tribulation
or distress
or persecution
or famine
or nakedness
or peril
or sword
these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that,
Neither death (8)
nor life (9)
nor angels (10)
nor principalities (11)
nor things present (12)
nor things to come (13)
nor powers (14)
