R E L I G I O N S are A S T R O L O G Y – part 2-
September 6th, 2007 | by astro |
Ancients assumed that nature and the sky is inhabited and governed by magical powers, demons, and gods who looked back at them, who planned their lives, and who communicated with them. This belief in a living sky, a sort of empire of the heavens, was part of the “common coin” of thought in the Ancient Greek world, found in the civic cults of the Fertile Crescent, in mystery religions such as Mithraism, magical texts and philosophies, Hermetism, Stoicism, Gnosticism, and Middle and Neo Platonism. It was shared, with qualifications, by Jews and Christians as well, and, indeed, remained an important part of the medieval world-view, among Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike. Religions which know only one creator-god, like Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and many other religions like Hinduism, Zoroastrianism etc have their foundations on Astrology
Christianity – For most of the Christians , the idea of roots of Christianity in Astrology cannot exist for them is a contradiction in terms. Yet Christianity begins with astrology’s symbols already common in some currents of Judaism and flowed quite naturally into Christianity: with signs in the heavens, the visit of Wise Men or Magi (literally, astrologers) to the Christ child. “The star went before them until it stopped over the place where the child was.” (Matt. 2:9b)
The Bible itself states in its first chapter (Gen.1.14) that the lights in the heavens were put there as “signs” and signs exist to be interpreted. In his answer to Job, God asks him if he can “bring out the signs of the zodiac in their seasons” (Job 38.32).
Hebrew -The origins of Hebrew in astrology are popularly attributed to Abraham or even Noah though it is more likely that it should be traced to the Jewish exile in Babylon. Possibly at that time the subject entered through the influence of biblical figures like Daniel, who had access to the pagan wisdom, or Ezekiel whose vision of the 4 creatures around the throne has profound relations to the astrology of the elements and the 4 fixed signs. “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years” (Genesis 1:14)
God told the Israelites: “Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season.” (Numbers 9:2)
How were they supposed to know when the “season” of Passover had come? By watching for the Full Moon.
Islam – According to Islam, Astrology is the scientific study of stars for determining and fixing time division such as months and seasons and directions. In Islam of modern times, this is legally recognized because it is perceived by the senses and fixed calculations, which can help determine the times of prescribed prayers, and other religious duties that should be observed at certain times.
“Allâh has informed us of His intended purpose for the stars: to guide mankind in the right path and to drive away evil satanic forces that might disrupt one’ life in this world of ours.” “And the Sun runneth on unto a resting place for him .That is the measuring of the mighty, the wise. And for the Moon, we have appointed mensions till she returns like an old shrivelled palm leaf. It is not for the sun to overtake the Moon, nor doth the nights outstrips the day. They float each in an orbit.” (Surah X X X VI. verse 38,39,and 40). “He is who appointed the Sun a splendour and the Moon a light and measured for her stages that he might know the number of the years, and the reckoning. Allah has created not (all) that save in truth.
We find that in the Quran, in several verses, Almighty has asked and encouraged mankind to look into and ponder over the objects of his creation, including the heaven, the stars and the Moon, in orders the understand his signs and thereby his supreme might, glory and greatness.
Mention in regard to Astrology or the influence of planets and stars is found in the Quran in connection with Pharaoh, who was warned of the birth of Prophet Moses.
As a consequence of the prediction by the court astrologers of King Namrood who Predicted birth of Prophet Ibrahim so much so that they predicted accurately the conception of Prophet Ibrahim in spite of the best efforts of the King Namrood to prevent it.
Hinduism: It is a little known fact that the ancient maharishis from the Vedic era of India (c. 3000 B.C.) were also master astrologers. Parashara, considered the grandfather of modern Vedic Astrology, was the grandson of the Rishi Vasishta, and the father of Veda Vyasa, who compiled the Vedas, the Bhagavad Gita, and many other scriptures of the Vedic tradition. Throughout the centuries of India’s long history, countless saints, scholars, and sages have studied and practiced the sacred science of astrology.
In Jyotish, it’s a map of the planets in the signs of the zodiac. Charts are cast based on an exact moment at an exact place on earth.

If thought about, Back then they had no computers, video games, TV, calculators, nothing really of entertainment. Sure, there were simplistic stuff to tinker with, and some brain candy items. But, when it came to those who step beyond the simple, and the jokes. Those thinkers took on something totally mind boggling to most. That was the gift of knowing what was going to happen, the seasonal change, the rains, the cold winter. These were your 1st astrologers. Look at the mayan calendar.

thats true, jesus mustve exceeded beyond the 10th hierarchy he was in. He mustve become a 1st ray orange color of the 12th hierarchy of Leo. The sun=sun. Either that or his soul is part of venus. Masculine is more superior than feminine.

The sunshine & sunset, from summer until winter just like that? thats if you in europe or north America, but not in MIDDLE EAST only desert & no winter even casuarina tree. Thats just europe think. The true is Jesus from Middle East.

Even the “crux” or cross was not a symbol in use among early Christians in the near east and was added by formerly Mithraic Romans who coopted this bizarre sect of Nazorean Judaism which was to become Christianity

Every single detail of this video is based on post Nicene doctrine and text and any real secular scholar of theology would chuckle at the presuppositions of this video.Churchianity people have to much wrapped up in their concepts of an immaculate conception and inviolate text to admit this so you go unchallenged but I must challenge this in the name of intellectual honesty.Your video is merely propaganda to prove a pre-determined conclusion if you won’t address these facts
By sopmodm4 on Oct 3, 2007 | Reply
Virgin birth and December 25th birthday for Jesus are later Roman/Mithraic additions to Christianity.Even the Resurrection account is not present in it’s recounted form in the oldest extant version of Mark 16(google Mark 16 shorter ending).This is Heresy to modern Christianity but it also pokes you theory about Christianity’s origins full of much deserved holes.Mithraism and Gnosticism have infiltrated world religions not created them and the maker of this video is either ignorant or dishonest

There is something fishy about our origins. im starting to worry. i feel like we have been decieved. **** all religions i will just trust in God the creator. But i find interesting that the story is so similar in so many parts of the world in a time where comunication with different cultures was so difficult and rare.

Noo! You still missed it! You’re not any more right to be Pagan than anyone else is to be Mormon or Muslim or Catholic; they’re all wrong! The sun for all that it is worth to man (and from what this video is saying, to the roots of just about all religion), is but a tiny, tiny spec in the Universe! These petty divisions between man on Earth are our hindrance. Until we recognize that we’re all in the same trap, it doesn’t matter which div^H^H^Hreligion u choose.

This video has totally shocked me. I was gobsmacked about how many lies have been told to me throughout my life.
I came out of christianity several years ago & am now a Pagan. But this video confirms all along that I made the right decision.
