This is because at the spring equinox,

the Sun officially overpowers the evil darkness, as daytime thereafter becomes longer in duration

than night, and the revitalizing conditions of spring emerge.

Now, probably the most obvious of all the astrological symbolism around Jesus

regards the 12 disciples.

They are simply the 12 constellations of the Zodiac,

which Jesus, being the Sun, travels about with.

In fact, the number 12 is replete throughout the Bible.

This text has more to do with astrology than anything else.

Coming back to the cross of the Zodiac,

the figurative life of the Sun,

this was not just an artistic expression or tool to track the Sun's movements.

It was also a Pagan spiritual symbol, the shorthand of which looked like this.

This is not a symbol of Christianity.

It is a Pagan adaptation of the cross of the Zodiac.

This is why Jesus in early occult art is always shown with his head on the cross,

for Jesus is the Sun, the Sun of God, the Light of the World, the Risen Savior,

who will "come again," as it does every morning,

the Glory of God who defends against the works of darkness, as he is "born again" every morning,

and can be seen "coming in the clouds,"

"up in Heaven," with his "Crown of Thorns," or, sun rays.

Now, of the many astrological-astronomical metaphors in the Bible, one of the most important

has to do with the ages.

Throughout the scripture there are numerous references to the "Age."

In order to understand this,

we need to be familiar with the phenomenon known as the precession of the equinoxes.

The ancient Egyptians along with cultures long before them recognized that approximately

every 2150 years the sunrise on the morning

of the spring equinox would occur at a different sign of the Zodiac.

This has to do with a slow angular wobble that the Earth maintains as it rotates on it's axis.

It is called a precession because the constellations go backwards,

rather than through the normal yearly cycle.

The amount of time that it takes for the precession to go through all 12 signs

is roughly 25,765 years.

This is also called the "Great Year," and ancient societies were very aware of this.

They referred to each 2150 year period as an "age."

From 4300 B.C. to 2150 B.C., it was the Age of Taurus, the Bull.

From 2150 B.B. to 1 A.D., it was the Age of Aries, the Ram

and from 1 A.D. to 2150 A.D. it is the Age of Pisces,

the age we are still in to this day.

And in and around 2150, we will enter the new age.

The Age of Aquarius.

Now, the Bible reflects, broadly speaking, a symbolic movement through 3 ages,

while foreshadowing a 4th.

In the Old Testament when Moses comes down Mount Sinai with the 10 Commandments,
