| Blood Moon |
1492 was also Columbus' cataclysmic discovery of new worlds. That is it was cataclysmic for those who were "discovered." That is the problem with signs, they need interpreting. Which is the greater sign, the Expulsion or the Discovery? The prophet and the wise man tell us, but do we know, now, what the Discovery meant, really? It is one illusion after another. Many parallels in the conflict of European and Indian cultures in the Americas, all of them ruinous to the Indian, will occur in the coming induction of Earth with supposed extra-terrestrial cultures that TV and cinema have prepared. Only a film like Apocalypto gives a sense of this, although my old neighbor Dr. Ken Morrison, who died at the breakfast table while talking, in the middle of a sentence perhaps, gives an excellent account of the Abenaki trials at the hands of the English in this work The Embattled Northeast and of the trials of the Algonkian vs. the French in The Solidarity of Kin. These ex-cultures are their own study, but it is much to the point of the man enclosed in the Lu Xun's iron room that he wakes to see himself the Indian. Mainly they were affrighted, outmythed, diseased, out politiced, exactly what happened when such powers landed their Coronavirus.
Torah teaches that "the heavens separate the day from the night for signs" (Genesis1:14). References to the moon "darkened" (Isaiah13:10, Joel2:10, Joel3:15, and Matthew24:29), or "turned to blood" (Joel 2:31 and Revelation 6:12), are not correlated with the cardinal cross fracture occurring at the first Blood Moon in April 2014 or with the American harbingers, two having occurred, the third due 2014-15. For a decade of irregular orbits of Neptune and (ex)planet Pluto changing places, meteor showers and northern lights were the only signs the impenitent took, not the stars falling like figs in Revelation where it is said all the host of heaven shall fall. If you live like figs you know a strong wind can litter the ground with your dark, sweet, rotten selves, which also attract wasps, so Peter says fig stars from Tartarus are loosed in a last roundup of the world mystery revival: scientifically attained resurrection, immortal perfect health, a real golden age swatch. Sometimes the fig is Israel, sometimes the universe: "the fig tree barked, made clean bare, the branches made white," doesn't mean the ordained future can't be known. Ask.
IF America is like Israel then the Blood Moons that fall on the feast days are for America too. "To drop America smack into chapter nine of Isaiah, as Tom Daschle does, when chapters two to fourteen of Isaiah are The Mother of All Threatenings (Edward Young), and to act as if they're just words does exactly what Israel did in Isaiah, took every counsel of its own advising, which all failed, and continued doing so." here
