Here are my thoughts this Mother’s Day. My title today is the words in Genesis 1:26. Unfortunately, we are making man in many images. This is not a happy day for Mother Earth, not a "green" day, some would say. All that is taking place in the world today connects with this thought: It is darkest before the dawn. This is what my mother used to tell me when my spirits were down. My mother, although born of Jewish parentage, believed that Jesus was her savior. Had she been born a Muslim, according to Sharia law, her head should have been cut off. According to Muslims, their's is the only God. Infidels are not tolerated.
It just so happens that we are leaving the Age of Pisces, which began with the birth of Jesus. Jesus was predicted by the “three wise men,” Persian astrologers, who followed the Star of Bethlehem to Jesus’ birthplace. The Piscean personality, as described by astrologers, is easily impressed by the vogue and usually weak-willed—suckers for what Jesus called hypocrites and wolves in sheep’s clothing. I wonder who he was referring to.
This brings to mind the living lie, Barack Hussein Obama. It just so happens that distinguished philosopher and cultural historian Richard Tarnas, after a thirty year study of the movements of the outer planets Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, determined that alignments of these planets connect with human history.
Coincidentally, in November 2008, the month and year Obama was elected President, Tarnas, in Cosmos and Psyche, under “World Wars, Cold War, and September 11,” wrote, “these three to four year cycles (Saturn square Pluto, the worst of alignments), “as did a wide spread sense of epochal closure, ‘the end of an era,’ ‘the end of innocence,’ the destruction of an earlier mode of life that in retrospect may seem to have been marked by widespread indulgence, decadence, naiveté, denial, and inflation,” just by coincidence, at the end of Obama’s four years as President the Mayan calendar predicts the end of the world.
Everything is in divine order, according to Reverend C.I. Scofield in his Introduction to the Scofield Study Bible, rather than progressive government, “exhibiting the majestic, progressive order of the divine dealings of God with humanity, ‘the increasing purpose’ which runs through and links together the ages, from the beginning of the life of man to the end in eternity.”
With every ending comes a new beginning. Astrologers tell us about our new beginning. Coincidentally, Jesus also told us about our new beginning. The Age of Aquarius, according to astrologers, is an age of brotherhood, fraternity, and spiritual awakening.
We call it learning from the school of hard knocks. Saturn is the learning planet. Pluto is the generational planet. The current bad alignment of these planets figures in our history. It just so happens that I was born with the best of Saturn’s and Pluto’s alignments, called a trine. Astrologers say that means I would have an understanding of the subtle workings of the universe; that I would be strong willed; that I would slowly make fundamental changes in my own and others lives. This would be my karmic mission.
“It is darkest before the dawn but never fear,” said my loving mother. In Matthew 7:7, Jesus said, Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.” It took me a lifetime to realize the power my mother, born a Jew, left in me. Jesus is everyone’s savior.
I thank God for my mother and her love. If she were here today she would want me to pass on what I’ve learned to a terribly misguided world. Voices of the past have spoken to me. I’ve lived a charmed life since the day I began looking within for my answers. In Luke 17:21, Jesus said, “the kingdom of God is within you.” He was speaking to everyone. The story of this nobody’s life, In Earth as It Is in Heaven 2012, will be available at Amazon this June. Hopefully, it will make us somebody to bring peace to the world.
