I found it! Thanks for prodding me Ashestobeauty! “And so the Magi went looking for this infant king to the capital city of the Jews, Jerusalem, and the Jews sent them into Bethlehem, a place from which the Jewish scriptures prophesy a king would come. Dr. Martin says that in the late December sky of 2 BC, these astrologers going from Jerusalem to Bethlehem would have noticed the constellation Virgo, the virgin girl, with the king planet Jupiter in the middle of her belly. Martin thinks the constellation represented the Virgin Mary and Jupiter the baby Jesus when he was in his mother's womb some months prior to the Magi's arrival. And Jupiter could have been perceived as, overhead, the home of Mary and Joseph, enabling these astrologers to find Jesus and Mary, who would surely have explained to them all about her son's kingship.” www.christianity.com/CC/article/1,1183,PTID2546(shift-backslash)CHID(shift-backslash)CIID143926,00.html (we need to run all these illegal characters off of Lockman’s web site!) retxar PS. This is a very intriguing story. I’m just posting what Ashestobeauty encouraged me to research. I would have to know a whole lot more than I do to verify as truth. So just keep things in that perspective. Thanks, retxar. |

Thank you for taking the time to research. I'm with you are the star stuff... "just keep things in that perspective" although, I do believe that God has hidden lessons in all of creation for us to discover. doesn't mean I agree with astrology or read horoscopes. Have a Peace Filled Christmas |
