A number of years ago I had a dream:
I saw the starry sky. There was a constellation (and since I do not know much about them), I did not know the significance of it. But, I did know that it was a special event in the heavenlies. The constellation was a man; and it seemed to give a signal that things were beginning.
The man held an instrument in his hand above his head (later I found out it was a harvesting sickle), and when he struck downward with this sharp instrument, the heavenly stars began to swirl all around and flee away. There was another particularly noticeable constellation partially coiled in the center of my view that began to rapidly swirl ... like a mind-bender roller coaster, as if it were being uncoiled. The stars fled from the heavens, and I awoke thinking about, of all things, a scorpion. Couldn't figure why.
Since the uncoiling constellation was more like a snake than a scorpion, I was totally puzzled about my dream and thoughts of a scorpian after I awoke... but after I shared my dream with others upon another Christian website, friends there led me to a book written by a man named E.W. Bullinger, called The Witness of the Stars. They also sent me to a manipulative constellation site (have forgotten what it is called at the moment) where I was able to rotate the stars until I finally saw the exact scene that I had seen in my dream.
The book was written about the ancient secrets recorded within the constellations... and there I found the man with the sharp instrument, which I had viewed in my dream.
The man was a constellation named, (Bootes) which represents 'the coming ONE' and he was holding a harvesting sickle above his head. Draco, the dragon, being near by, was the one in the center of my view that had uncoiled ... and low and behold as seen on the manipulative website, was Scorpio jus barely arising on the heavenly horizon of my view.
This is what is said about the constellation Bootes within the book by Bullinger:
He is pictured as a man walking rapidly, with a spear in his right hand and a sickle in his raised left hand.
He is referred to in Ps. 96:13. For He cometh to judge the earth; He shall judge the world in righteousness, And the people with His truth.
The ancient Egyptians called him Smat, which means - ONE who rules, subdues, and governs... etc.
Since the time of this dream, I have pondered whether this was a sign of the beginning of the end, and since that dream, we have experienced 9-11, and life, as I have known it in the USA, has begun to unravel... and the war on terror has become well known.
I was born at the beginning of 1946 ... and was among the generation that saw the rebirth of Israel ... I wonder whether I am also among the generation that will not die before we see the return of Christ.
2010 just brings me a little closer to the year 2012, which I am pondering might be a significant year in history.
Don't know anything ... but certainly pondering these things in my heart.
