claire11/3 is a "new" date that appeared as a watch date 11/13 was a watch date for quite some time The spaghetti rapture post link above in this thread has a graphic at the beginning with potential higher watch dates. Honestly, I have a higher watch on those days, but it doesn't really diminish my longing and desire to be with our Lord. I am watching and praying for his return daily.

After Sep 23, I basically lost track of things. : ( All the date and number counting flew right over my head. First of all, Sep 23 Rev 12 Sign was supposed to be significant because it was 1 in 6000 years and then it was a higher watch time because it happened to be around a feast day, right? When nothing happened, all kinds of theories started popping out. Delayed Feast Day, barley harvest, wrong calendar, error in calendar....each one kicking the possible day down from Sep to Oct to Nov. I am totally confused. If there is something wrong with the calendar, or a wrong calendar has been used, or a wrong way of determining the feast day caused the error, then won't it render everything else wrong. Rev 12 sign lost some of its significance because it just got disconnected from a feast day association. I wanted to ask if someone could explain to me but on second thought, I think I will not do that because I am quite sure the explanations will be over my head again. Maybe I can take a stab at it, and keep it simple? The scriptures say what they say, and more often than not, we misinterpret the meaning or significance. For something as significant as the Rev 12:1-2 'great' sign though, its really difficult to say 'that wasnt it', imho; but conversely, its really easy to say 'we do not know what it means; only that, based upon all the other evidence and events occurring, we are in the season for the harpazo'. Everything else is hypothesizing. Hypothesizing can be fun, but should be approached from the 'I might be wrong' standpoint - that is, 'I am only suggesting this to promote discussion'. I hope this is reasonably clear.

I was looking for a thread where "the days of Noah" was being discussed and couldn't find it. I saw that yesterday on the Jewish calendar was the anniversary of the death of Methusaleh, Noah's grandfather. Interesting that his name means "when he dies it shall come" or "upon his death there will be a major change." He died the year of the flood.

I must make an important correction to my previous post: Gary, in your article you called the Jupiter-Venus conjunction "post-birth". I wonder if that's the wrong way to look at it. Going through some old threads I found a fascinating post by brad : Here is a chart of the 3 birthing signs we have been discussing. All 3 of the signs have 1 thing in common, A day count from the start of Jupiter’s retrograde until a Jupiter/Venus conjunction lasting within the plus or minus 2 weeks of the 280 day normal human gestation cycle. Read the entire quoted post, including the attachment. We all found the 3915 BC sign interesting; but the "birth", judging by the boundaries of the constellation, seemed to take place after too short a gestation. But using the start and end events that brad identifies, it falls perfectly in range. Using this as a clue, the Star of Bethlehem also fits. Maybe these point to the proper fulfillment of the 2017 signs! This illustrates the necessity of checking each others' work. I went to look up the 2 BC planetary movements, and I found that the nine months do not begin when Jupiter begins retrograde as brad stated, but rather when Jupiter encounters Regulus for the first time on 9/14. Then it is 276 days until the Venus conjunction on 6/17. If you start counting from when Jupiter begins retrograde on 11/30, it is only 199 days. The 3915 BC arrangement, however, still matches. Jupiter begins retrograde on 12/12 and the conjunction with Venus is on 9/16, for a duration of 278 days.
