The Christmas theme: The Twelve Signs of the Zodiac

Rev. Michaël Merle gave nine talks during the Holy Nights on the signs of the Zodiac. The purpose of these talks was to introduce the great imaginations that lived behind these signs for the Ancient Mesopotamian people who recognised that in the stars above there were divine influences that radiated down to the earth in a very particular way as the sun progressed across the sky in the course of year, but more importantly as the axis of the earth pointed into a particular part of the night sky. As they studied these areas of the night sky that fall in a band across the heavens, they recognised images in the stars that they were able to connect with the pantheon of their gods and the influence that each of these gods brought to earth.

The understanding of the constellations has developed as the human consciousness developed and with it our ‘brain-based’ thinking. This is what YHWH (Yahweh) of the Elohim worked to prepare in the inherited stream of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Israel) and his descendants. This led to the possibility of the incarnation of Christ in a human being.

The influence of the constellation into which the axis of the earth points, which changes every 2 500 years or so as a result of the precession of the earth’s axis, as a gateway for a particular aspect of Divine inspiration was traced from the earliest human civilisations through the present and into the future great cycles of Earth incarnation.

The reports of these talks will appear later in the year in the newsletter and here on the website more expansively.

We have a limited number of this beautifully illustrated book inspired by talks given by Rev. Michaël Merle in Australia on sale for R200.
