While going through my daily news feed, I have lately seen a few patterns emerging A LOT. (As you know, I’m all about patterns). I would like to share it here, for those who like to keep their finger on the pulse. In this case, earth’s pulse, perhaps even that of the cosmos.
Asteroid Hit:
More frequent coverage regarding NASA “trying” to prepare for a possible future asteroid hit. For those unfamiliar with the concept of Nibiru or Planet X, this asteroid made an appearance during the Exodus out of Egypt according to the Zohar, and will be coming into orbit again during the Final Redemption. Seeing that we just read the Parsha of Balak last week, there is a hint to this star in the Parsha. Numbers 24:17 that clearly speaks of Mashiah, also hints to something that will happen parallel to this event:
דָּרַךְ כּוֹכָב מִיַּעֲקֹב, וְקָם שֵׁבֶט מִיִּשְׂרָאֵל
Uncovering one of the multiple layers of the Torah, the sages point out the mentioning of a kohav (star) and scepter (shevet). In this they say, do not read it as shevet, but as shavit – planet, alluding to a star planet or dwarf star that will appear as it appeared in the time of the Exodus out of Egypt. It gives a lot of meaning to the rest of verse 17: "and [it] shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth"
In a latest asteroid hit projection, NASA concluded that even 6 months will not be enough for diverting an asteroid. In their recent projection most of Europe got wiped out. It’s interesting to see how much effort they are putting into asteroid detection these days…
Aliens Down Under?
A lot of coverage has been given on previously confidential alien sightings. What most people don’t know is that there have been civilizations living under ground since the fall of Adam. These civilizations are inhabiting different layers within the Earth, and their descriptions are very fitting to the previously reported alien sightings. For most this is farfetched and alien (yes, pun!). Again, the Zohar (in Hakdamat HaZohar) states that these civilizations will reveal themselves in the end of days. But things just got very real as archaeology is now shedding light into these ancient truths. A rediscovered Hittite Temple (you will remember that the Hittites were one of the seven nations that Israel had to eradicate from the land), hints to some underworldly activity.
Earth’s Magnetic Shift:
We’ve been covering the 41,800 year cycle of the Earth’s magnetic shift, and that we are drawing close the end of this cycle. You can see the blog with Shaul Kullook here. A lot of strange bird behavior and phenomena have been reported lately.
Birds are the most obvious choice and indication when it comes to tracking magnetic shifts as they have a “built in” radar or sense that helps them navigate during migration.
On June 25th this year (15th of Tammuz) 5,000 birds disappeared during a pigeon racing contest. It was described as the ‘worst day in pigeon racing history’. Pigeon keepers speculate that it was due to a solar storm. Shaul explain that these storms’ devastating effects will increase as the magnectic field shifts. He makes mention of Rashi’s interpretation of unsheathing the Sun in the book of Malachi. The magnetic field itself provides protection from radiation. Pigeons played a key role in messaging but also as sacrifices in ancient Israel. Above are two photos of a columbarium where pigeons were kept in Beit Guvrin.
Major Worldwide Tech Outages:
Keeping on the subject of magnetic field and Solar storms, we saw a massive world wide internet outage on June 8th. This too comes amid solar storms. Power grids and satellites are also influenced by these solar storms, and remember, beyond an electricity outage, water and gas will also be effected.
Israel has gone to great lengths in protecting the tech that specifically controls the water supply in the country, as our enemies have made extensive threats and attempts to hack these systems. Besides air, water is the most essential for human survival. Nothing new of course; when King David finally took Jerusalem (one of the last cities to be taken during the almost 400-year conquest of the land), he conquered the city through the water channel (2 Sam 5:7-8).
When you visit Israel, you will find many ancient cities.
These cities are called a Tel (like Tel Aviv, Tel Dan etc.). A key feature that you will always find close or adjacent to such a structure is a natural water source. In the case of Jerusalem, it is the legendary Gihon spring. Remember, even in ancient days, the strategy was always: Take the water, take the city. Even King Chizkiyahu (Hezekiah) knew this. This is why he redirected the water flow of the Gihon spring from the approaching Assyrian assault (2 Kings 20:20). That tunnel has been excavated in the City of David, and you can actually visit and walk through it.
What is was, what will be was…
(Eccl 3:15).
There is nothing new under the sun, and no matter how advance we are, G-d can command His heavenly legions including the planets to nullify all our efforts, and the efforts of our enemies. Psalm 19 summarizes all of this very well. How to acknowledge G-d’s rule through the planets, but also how to keep His commandments, a deep and profound connection. That’s why Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) ends with what we need to focus on and do: Fear G-d, for everything belongs to Him and if you are living according to His will and instructions, He will take care of you, and keep His commandments - the means by which He can protect and provide for us. I intentionally say that He can provide for us. G-d is bound by the rules He established during creation and later on stipulated in the Torah. If you move away or beyond these stipulations, He will not protect you.
That is why the story of Hezekiah is so important. By battling his own nation through a tremendous reform in order to get them to return in keeping the Torah, including restoring the levites to their place, reinstating the offerings and especially the first fruit offerings, he insured them G-d's divine protection against the approaching onslaught. You can read the full story here
From this we learn that we have to do EVERYTHING in our own physical power to prepare for an approaching offense. But more that that, we have to make right with G-d, correcting in this time of self-correction and keeping to His commandments - the way He runs His world. For the Jewish people this means the 613 commandments. For any other person/nation this means followoing the 7 Noahide laws. History tells us that there is divine protection and intervention when this is done.
What time is it?
We are firstly in the time of the agricultural cycle when the first fruits were brought to the Temple. The order of the placing of these fruits, their inspection and their dedication in the Temple is pivotal to G-d's blessing and protection. It's time to knuckle down and make sure you understand this order (You can't just pick and chose what you want, when you want). It's time to deeply inspect your spiritual fruits. Are you giving G-d that which comes first? The best, the cream of the crop? That includes your time.
Secondly we are in the three weeks between 17 Tammuz and 9th of Av - bein hametzarim (between the straits). Metzar from tzar - constraint and affliction, also enemy. Hashem says: I am the One who took you out of Mitzrayim (Egypt), SO THAT I CAN BE A G-D TO YOU. G-d is everywhere. But if you are between the straits, you can hardly look up and serve Him. That is what Egypt's name means - Mitzrayim, the place of affliction, slavery and hardship. Mitzrayim, the embodiment of the worldly system of slavery, the opposite of G-d's rule and goverment. If you are a slave to the system, you can not serve G-d to the fullness of your potential.
