I thought of Christ as a religious, as opposed to Masonic, symbol.


Actually Christ is the last in a long line of Astrological Symbols that
began with the Egyptian sun god, Horus, 3000 BC. All the dates of all of
them are related to the Zodiac. Born (again) DEC 25th, 3 days after the
winter solstice when the sun (son) can be detected to move 1 degree
Northward in its battle with "evil" that drove it South for the winter.
They were all crucified just in time for the Spring Equinox (Easter) when
the sun (son) wins over "the darkness" as the days are now longer than
the nights. They were buried for 3 days, then resurrected into "Heaven",
where the Zodiacals live.

Next time you see a Christian with a fish on the back of his car, ask him
what it means. JC was the sun god in the Zodiacal age of Pisces, the two
fish. He will "reign" until the next Zodiacal age, the Age of Aquarius,
the Waterbearer who brings us the spring rains every year.

It's hard to find a good Zodiac on the net. They are usually highly
stylized, for religious reasons, and don't show you a good clock like
this one. Notice the first (beginning) is Virgo, The Virgin. All the
Sun gods were born of virgins. There's a whole list of them between
Horus and Jesus across the planet's northern hemisphere, of course. The
solar year is one trip around the clock in the clockwise direction. The
ages, however, go BACKWARDS. Notice the time of Jesus occurs at the
beginning of Pisces. Zodiacal Ages last about 2250 years, so JC has a
ways to go, beyond our lifetimes, so we won't be here to see what
happens, "at the end of the age", so the clerics don't have to explain to
us why nothing happens for another hundred years.

This is a great time of year to see the Astrological birth of these sun
gods. On Dec 22, the "Three Kings" follow the "Star in the East" and
point to the Son...er, ah, SUN, there, that's better. You can see this
wonderful even EVERY Christmas eve for yourself if you haul your ass out
of bed a little before the sunrise that blots out the stars. The "Three
Kings" are the belt of the constellation Orion that's easier to see at
midnight directly over your head all winter. Orion, the warrior:

has a belt of 3 stars across his waist. These are the "Three Kings". In
mid-December, if you look at the "Three Kings" upright like this picture,
and line them up in your mind from right to left, they point to Sirius,
the "Star In The East", at sunrise (or all night if you want a better
look). Sirius is the brightest star in the sky by a wide margin....a
marker in the sky.

....and here it all lines up on Dec 22, the Winter Solstice, which gave
the ancients a point of reference so they could detect the 1 degree
northern movement of the sun, completely ignoring the reason why, on Dec
25th when all the sun gods were born of Virgos whos name, like the
Zodiacal sign for Virgo, all began with M....no coincidence, either.

Here's an actual photo on Dec 22nd from some amateur astronomer's nice-
looking observatory. Best picture of it that's real I've seen. Now you
can sleep in on Dec 22, WHICH IS TOMORROW MORNING!

No matter what your religious persuasion, you should really see the movie
"Zeitgeist", which gives a great explanation of all this Zodiacal
nonsense as one chapter of the larger movie about elite humans having
control over "lesser" humans.....until those humans get fed up and
something really bloody happens, over and over, in history.

The "Cross", that's so important is the Zodiacal Cross, like you see
behind Jesus he
http://z.about.com/d/gaylife/1/0/v/8/jesus.JPG
All the old likenesses of what they think he might have looked like in
their mind's eye, have Zodiac crosses behind him because the Sun...er,
ah, Son...is the center of the Zodiac. The cross part depicts the two
Equinoxes and Solstices as the sun travels through the 12 Zodiacal
constellations in a year, whos 12 months is also no coincidence. For a
long time, Church crosses had zodiacal rings and looked like this
zodiacal measuring instrument:

but I suspect too many people were seeing a resemblance in the last
hundred or so years, so they dumped the Zodiac Ring to reduce the
embarrassing questions about it.

Part 1 of Zeitgeist:

shows you this information all in one place in 3 youtube parts.

The movie is fascinating....
