December 25 is the world’s most famous day. It is called Christmas, the day dedicated to the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Like most outwardly innocuous things, Christmas does have a hidden, sinister (in fact, anti-Christ) connotation but that is another topic for another day. What is of relevance for now is that it is the day on which the birth of the Jesus of the gospels is commemorated, though to the religiously indifferent it is simply a day of special merriment, hence “Merry Christmas”.
But the question is, was the Jesus of history indeed born on December 25? Every time they conduct a Christmas service, the men in the pulpit are quick to underscore that December 25 is simply a ceremonial day, that Jesus was not born on December 25 but on another unknown date. Fair enough. But why should December 25 be the only day chosen as the symbolic birth date of Jesus? Why not any other day and any other month out of the 365 days and 12 months there are in the solar year?
Once again, we have astrology and astrotheology to “thank” for the rationale behind it all. In astrology-speak, the sun is re-born every December 25. This is because that is the day (from the point of view of the Northern Hemisphere) when the hours of daylight start to increase. Since the gospels present Jesus as a Saviour Sun God, his birth had to coincide with the annual astrological birth of the sun. Indeed, all Saviour Sun Gods before Jesus (Krishna, Hesus, Mithras, Horus, etc) are all said to have been born on December 25. These were not biological births: they were attributed astrological births.
We all know that December 25 falls in the astrological House of Capricorn, which rules from December 22 to January 22. So Jesus had to be born in a house (MATTHEW 2:11). At the same time, he had to be born in a manger (LUKE 2:7). A manger is a feeding trough for animals in a stable. What did the ancients call the constellation of Capricorn? The Stable of Augeas.
Luke relates that when Jesus was born, shepherds were out in the fields in the dark of night tending to their flocks. Of course this is not plausible if Jesus was born in December. In Palestine at this time, and at night in particular, it is practically ice-cold. The shepherds could not have been so foolhardy as to so unnecessarily risk their lives. The only reason the element of shepherds was introduced into the nativity (birth story of Jesus) was to highlight the fact that Jesus was a Sun God. As we have long pointed out, the sun was referred to as the Great Shepherd by the ancients because it sustained the life of its sheep – mankind. Thus, the shepherds who rushed to go and “worship” the newly-born Jesus were a metaphor for earthly kings – who in antiquity (in Egypt and Babylon in particular) called themselves “Shepherd Kings” – doubling up to pay homage to the King of Kings, the Great Shepherd known as Jesus Christ.
The Shepherd Kings had been reigning over their subjects in the dark, symbolically speaking. That darkness would now dissipate as the “Light of the World”, Jesus Christ aka God’s Sun/Son, had now come into the world (“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us … And we beheld his Glory [light] – JOHN 1:14). It’s all primarily allegorical folks and only secondarily history. The “gospel” is not the greatest story ever told: it is the greatest story ever sold.
STAR OF BETHLEHEM
According to the gospel of Matthew, baby Jesus was visited by a team of wise men “from the east” as he lay in a manger in Bethlehem. The wise men (whose number Matthew does not state but who are traditionally believed to be three) were guided by a star, commonly referred to as the Star of Bethlehem. Attempts to explain the star range from the theological to the astronomical. The Church Fathers, such as Augustine of Hippo (354-430 AD), simply took it for granted that the star was a miraculous sign God emplaced in the skies of Bethlehem to guide the wise men. That, of course, is taking faith to far, but this is the belief that, unfortunately, is a foregone conclusion in all Christendom.
The astronomical scenario was first persuasively argued by Johannes Kepler, the German mathematician, astronomer, and astrologer in 1606 (the same scenario had been posited in church annals way back in 1285). Kepler calculated that in 7 BC, around the time the historical Jesus is said to have been born, the planets Jupiter and Saturn overlapped – called a conjunction in astronomical terms – and the result was a single, rather bright star from the point of view of Earth (Jupiter is the brightest object in the night sky when it appears). Planetary conjunctions do take place from time to time, just like the sun and moon periodically overlap to form an eclipse. For instance, on June 17 in 2 BC, Jupiter and Venus visually merged and appeared like one huge star. However, the 7 BC merging of Jupiter and Saturn was later found to be problematic. In his 1949 booklet titled The Star of Bethlehem, Roy K Marshall documented that throughout their known history, Jupiter and Saturn were never so close together as to appear as one star. Earlier, in 1946, another astronomer, Charles Pritchard, had done meticulous research on the event and found that Jupiter and Saturn appeared very close together (that is, they did not align to appear as one star) on three dates in 7 BC. These were May 29, October 1, and December 5. Pritchard called this a “triple conjunction”. The giant planets again drew close in 66 BC, a phenomenon that sparked the famous Jewish uprising against the Romans with disastrous consequences.
Yet even if it is assumed that Jupiter and Saturn did appear as one star, this star could not have moved “ahead” of the wise men like a lamp moving across the sky and then come to hover over the exact place in Bethlehem where Jesus had been born (MATTHEW 2:9).Celestial bodies don’t move like that from the point of view of Earth: they actually seem stationary over a very wide geographical expanse. Even the moon, which actually moves, does not simply hover over Johannesburg or Sandton City or the Menlyn Mall. It is seen over a whole country or region at once if there is no cloud cover in some parts. You will also note that Matthew contradicts himself when he relates that the wise men actually got lost and had to consult King Herod for directions to the place where Jesus was born (MATTHEW 2:2).How could they get lost if the star was such a precision, drifting guide?
So if the theological argument is nonsensical and the astronomical argument is hollow, how do we explain the Star of the Bethlehem? It is astrology yet again that comes in handy here (and a bit of allegory as we shall demonstrate at a later stage).
SIRIUS AND ORION
Let us begin with the wise men themselves. The Greek word translated wise men is actually Magi. Although Magi sounds very close to “magician”, that’s not what it meant. It meant astrologers. That the Jesus story is in large measure astrological is intimated by the appellation of the very deputation who are said to have paid a venerational call on him at birth. The English term “wise men” is in fact not far-fetched. In antiquity, people who understood the positions of the stars and planets and how they influenced events on planet Earth were said to be wise and learned. They were wise because they were seers – people who could foretell the future simply by studying the stars.
As we have already demonstrated, the interpretation of the deduced shape of star clusters was actually played out in the story of the Jesus of history, so that the “prophecies” Jesus fulfilled were in reality what was “written” in the cosmos by way of the geography of the heavens – the general shapes star groups make in the night sky. That’s how the Illuminati influence our lives folks without us having the slightest idea that we are simply being manouevred through our Earthly destiny like pieces on a chess board. Life is simply a computer game on a grander scale, with people who are furiously pecking away on a keyboard and directing the cursor hidden from view. I recommend that you watch the Matrix Trilogy starring Keanu Reeves to best understand the cyberspace character of the human condition.
As noted above, the number of the wise men is not specified in the gospels and yet they are assumed to be three. On the face of it, this assumption must derive from their having had presented three gifts to baby Jesus, namely gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The truth of the matter, however, is that the “three” wise men are fundamentally a astrological allegory. They correspond with the so-called Orion belt – the three stars on the “waist band” of the Orion constellation. In astronomy, the three stars comprising the Orion Belt go by the names Mintaka, Alnilam, and Alnitak. What did the ancients call these three stars as a collective? The Three Kings. That’s why some very misguided traditions aver that the Magi were the Kings of Persia.
Regarding “the star in the east”, this is actually Sirius, the brightest star in the sky. Sirius always aligns with the Orion Belt. This has consistently been the case for the past 4,000 years. However, on December 24 (the third day after winter solstice, the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere) and from the point of view of Jerusalem, Sirius pops above the horizon just after sunset. On that day, it indeed becomes the “star in the east”. That way, it symbolically announces the annual “birth” of the sun on December 25. That’s why Jesus, the Saviour Sun God, had to have a Christmas birthday. The Son of God had to be born on the very day the Sun of God is reborn. It’s all astrotheology folks and not history.
THE ANUNNAKI CONNECTION
Much of what has happened on Earth over the ages has not been determined by the indigenous people – ordinary mankind. It has been schemed by outsiders – beings from other star systems. The star systems that have exerted the most influence on Earth are Sirius and Orion. Orion for one is directly mentioned in the Bible three times in JOB 9:9("He is the maker of the Bear and Orion"), JOB 38:31 ("Can you loosen Orion`s belt?"), and AMOS 5:8 ("He who made the Pleiades and Orion").
When we talk about the Anunnaki, we are primarily referring to Aliens from the Sirius and Orion star systems. The Anunnaki do not originate from planet Nibiru. Nibiru is simply their Solar System outpost. Their place of origin is the Orion Empire, of which the Sirius star system is a part (and of which our Solar System is an indirect colony). In the Hebrew version of the Old Testament, the Anunnaki are referred to as the Nephilim, amongst other names. In ancient Aram (today’s central Syria), Orion was called Nephila, meaning the place of the Nephilim.
The Anunnaki are the result of a politically expedient marriage between the King of Sirius and the Queen of Orion. People have always wondered why Enki (the Serpent of Genesis and the real father of Noah according to Sumerian records) was so charitable toward the human race whilst Enlil, the principal Jehovah of the Bible, was so mean. The reason is simply that Enki was an Orion prince. Enki was the first-born son of the Queen of Orion (a matriarchal society) and therefore inherited much of female tenderness. Enlil, on the other hand, was from Sirius, a male-dominated, testosterone-driven domain. Sirians evolved from the cat (lions) and dog species, the reason why Sirius C is also known as the Dog Star.
The tension between the Enlilite clan and the Enkite clan is very apparent in both the Jesus of history and the Jesus of the gospels. Although the Anunnaki no longer rule us directly, they very much call the shots behind the scenes. Since they are of two factions, they hardly ever see common cause on an agenda, which is why our planet is in the sorry state it is today. Even when they get to agree on a goal, they use different action plans to attain to that goal.
The gospel interpolators who factored in the Star of Bethlehem incident were not writing history. They wanted to underscore that the birth and life of Jesus was controlled and driven not by Earthlings but by the Anunnaki. Therefore, Sirius and the Orion Belt had to be made to align, symbolically, and point at the symbolic birthplace of the being the Anunnaki envisaged to be the foremost religious frame of reference on the planet, whose cult following was meant to sidetrack mankind from the exercise of the great capacities that were innate to his being. The result, indeed, is that today we worship Jesus when we’re all gods in our own right.
