Constantine may be to blame…

Exit Pisces
Enter Aquarius
“The picture of the cross of the zodiac has a circle in the middle, representing the sun. Using a cross “t” shape, it is also divided into four sections. These four sections refer to the equinoxes and solstices. And, in each solstice, it shows 3 of the 12 original constellations, which refer to the 12 months of the year. These constellations were personified, and anthropomorphized such as Pieces, the two fish. Or Orion, the hunter. So not only did the ancients follow these stars, they personified them. The ancients created stories about them, and using the sun as the live-giving magnificent being, was God. The twelve constellations were the twelve disciples, and that’s just the start of it. And thus, using personification and anthropomorphization, the base of all religion was born, along with the birth of many future wars, killings of innocent people, discrimination, and separation of society as a whole.
The sun, known for its life saving-saving, warmth, and live sustaining qualities, was personified as the unseen creator, or God. The sun was often referred to as God-Sun, The Light of the World, The Savior of Humanity. Moving on, the constellations represented places of travel for God Sun. For example, Aquarius, the Water Bearer, when the sun is aligned with, brings the spring rains. Now, for any of this to make sense, one thing has to be understood; the parallels found throughout every religion.
Starting off with Horus, the Son of God of Egyptian mythology around 3000 B.C. His entire life and story was him as the sun personified. These stories were made from anthropomorphization and his travels and battles as he moved through the sky through different constellations. Horus, known as the Son or The Light, had an enemy. The enemies name was Set, the personification of dark or night. Every morning, according to Egyptian scriptures, Horus would win the battle against Set, bringing light and warmth. Then every night, Set would win the battle against Horus and send him to the underworld, thus the death of the sun and the darkness would follow.
Speaking broadly, the story of Horus goes as this: Horus was born on December 25 of the virgin Isis Mary. His birth was accompanied by a star in the east. During his birth, he was adored by 3 kings. Horus was a teacher by the age of 12, he was baptized at age 30 and thus began his ministry. He had 12 disciples he traveled about with performing miracles such as healing the sick and walking on water. He was called The Truth, The Light, The Lamb of God, and many other names. After being betrayed, he was crucified, was dead for 3 days, and then resurrected. This all was around 3000 B.C. These attributes of Horus, whether original or not, were found around the world and being used by many other cultures.”

“The Winter Solstice is the shortest day of the year, with the sun at its lowest and weakest. In the Northern Hemisphere it usually occurs around December 21st.
In pagan Scandinavia the winter festival was the Yule, celebrated by burning the hearth fires of the magically significant Yule log. In the Celtic Druid culture, the Winter Solstice was celebrated by hanging sacred mistletoe over a doorway or in a room to offer goodwill to visitors. Germanic tribes decorated a pine or fir tree with candles and tokens. The Inca held midwinter ceremonies at temples that served as astronomical observatories like Machu Pichu.
Romans celebrated this event with Saturnalia, a festival of merrymaking, and decorating their homes and temples with holly and evergreens. Also popular was the exchange of small gifts thought to bring luck on the recipient.
In the fourth century AD, Christian authorities in Rome attempted to eliminate the pagan festivities by adopting December 25th as Christ’s birthday. The effort was never completely successful, and eventually many Winter Solstice customs were incorporated into Christmas observances.
Since so many of these traditions have persisted for thousands of years despite extensive efforts to eliminate them, we think it best to celebrate the Winter Solstice with these ancient customs, recognizing our links to the rest of humanity, past and present.
Spring Equinox
Spring or Vernal Equinox, also known as Ostara, Easter, and St. Patrick’s Day, occurs in the middle of March in the Northern Hemisphere. It marks the beginning of Spring and the time when days and nights are of equal length.”
