The thread talking about 1/21/18 as a high watch day was locked, but I believe the reasoning was due to the original posters sarcastic attitude and disregard to the forum moderators established rules. Tossing that issue aside, I felt compelled to start a new thread to actually talk about the potential significance of this date.
Before getting to that date, I would like to share a few scribblings from my whiteboard at work that have accumulated over the past year leading up to the much anticipated “Great American Eclipse” and “Revelations 12 Sign,” which has been so heavily documented on this website. Unfortunately work does not permit pictures, so I apologize for not just showing this visually. Anyways, at the top of my whiteboard are 5 Bible verses.
Micah 5:3 - Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
Romans 11:8 - According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear; unto this day.
Romans 11:25 - For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Revelations 12: 1-2 - And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
Revelations 12:5 - And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
Note: caught up in Revelations 12:5 is the word “harpazo”, which is the word used to describe the rapture.
I wrote these down together to observe their potential connections. Hopefully the font coloring makes it through to the forum, when I paste this from a word document. Anyways, notice the following similarities.
• “give them up” / “give them the spirit of slumber”
• “eyes that they should not see” / “blindness in part is happened to Israel”
• “until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth” / “until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in”
My focus of these versus was speculating that Israel’s blindness is lifted and thus spirit of slumber removed, after the completion of Revelations 12:5. My hope was that 9/23/17 would trigger the rapture of the Body of Christ.
With that hope passed many continued looking, hoping, and theorizing on what the eclipse and alignment many have meant or if it was even anything at all. My current conclusion based on Daniel Matson’s countdown charts, was that the moment in time described in Revelations 12:1-2 was 9/23/17, but the great wonder of those verses continued until the Jupiter Venus conjunction. I believe the internal struggles that so many following this forum’s articles experienced, was a preplanned unfolding story of our likely very near rapture event, which wasn’t just captured on 9/23/17, but rather was sung through the heaven’s over that period of time. I wonder how much we still missed…
Before moving on to the thread's subject, let me throw out that I’m in complete cluelessness regarding Revelations 1:4. Logically, I would assume this is next to occur before verse 5. Ok, with that out of the way, let’s consider 1/21/18 and so I’ll go back to my whiteboard.
I have drawn out a little eclipse picture with 8/21/17 scribbled above and my little stick figure of Virgo with 9/23/17 as well. A nice line showing 33 days separates them and the following bullets are noted to the side.
• The eclipse started at the 33rd state
• The eclipse ended at the 33rd parallel
• The eclipse went through 7 “salems”
• The eclipse came 7 years before an opposite eclipse that will mark an X over a town called “little Egypt”
My next little scribblings are a up arrow, a question mark, and the word harpazo with a line from the 9/23/17 Virgo picture to the date 1/21/18, which has noted 120 days separating them. Above these 33 and 120 lines is a line spanning the whole timeframe, which gets a total count of 153 days.
• Under the 120 I wrote down “as in the days of Noah” because of the 120 year warning before the flood.
• I also wrote 120 people in the upper chamber, because the rapture of the body of Christ will complete the conception that the Holy Spirit started on Pentecost, with our new birth into the incorruptible.
• Next, I’ve got scribbled “my spirit will not always strive with man,” which is in relation to God stating that man would only have 120 years; however, I personally feel this was a reference to 120 jubilee years, which would signify a total of 6,000 years before the restrainer is removed during the tribulation and when the Body of Christ is taken to their place of hiding; hence the connection to the rapture.
Now for the exciting things that Google & Youtube found for me over the past few days!
1.) The 7th day of Hanukkah may actually be on 1/21/18, due to the barley harvest. Here’s a link to a youtube video about it, which is hard for me to follow, but why I share it is for one of the comments.
I guess I’ll just paste the whole comment, but it’s big, so I’m sorry about the HUGE wall of TEXT below.
For 1800 years God’s calendar and the Jewish calendar were one and the same. However after the Jews were scattered a system had to be developed where everyone could be on the same page as to when the Jewish Feasts were to take place throughout the world. What they developed was a Jewish calendar based on a 19-year cycle. The problem is that the Jewish calendar is not correct 1/3 of the time and gets out of sync with the solar constellations (God’s calendar) by 1-month either March or April. With today’s modern software like Stellarium, it is quite easy to tell when the earth gets out of sync with the constellations due to the precession of the equinoxes by looking at the sun’s position in the constellations with the corresponding month. For example, with the new moon for the month of September, the sun should be in the constellation Virgo. This year, the sun was in the constellation Leo and was a month off. The Lord has a perfect way of solving this problem and that was when the barley was ready to harvest. When the barley was ready for harvest throughout the nation of Israel (either new moon of March or new moon of April), then the first new moon is Nissan 1 on the Jewish calendar. This year, at the new moon of March the barley was not ready to harvest and if it was not ready to harvest then Nissan 1 is the new moon of April. However, the Jewish calendar lists Nissan 1 as the new moon of March 28, 2017 and it should be the new moon of April 27, 2017. What this means is that the Jewish calendar is off by one month for this year. The fall feasts are celebrated on the 1stday, 10th day, and the 21st to 22nd day of the 7th month. This should be the 8th month, therefore 1st day Rosh Hashanah should be celebrated October 22, 2017 instead of September 22, 2017. The 10thday: Day of Atonement should be celebrated October 31, 2017 instead of October 1, 2017. The 21st to 22nd day, the 7th & 8th day of Tabernacles (Sukkot) should be celebrated November 11th to 12th, instead of October 11th to 12th. For a good video on this: (SEE: . Raise your hands if any of you brothers and sisters have felt a little odd about celebrating your actual birthday on any day other than the actual date of your birth. Now ask yourself how God may feel about His appointed times (Moedim) being observed on days that are not in sync, in alignment and agreement with His actual appointed times each and every year. Forget about the excuse that so many are using “how can we know which calendars that are being used are correct.” Only God’s calendar is correct and it is the one that resets and aligns all events for any and every given year. His requirements to know and understand the times and seasons each year can only be fulfilled by remaining focused on Him through keeping your eyes on His creation. God’s World Wide Web and Internet is His creation. It is out there for all to read and gain knowledge from so we can remain in sync with Him and know the times He desires us to be in step with. The Rev 12 sign was absolute and beautiful indeed. The sign and the event are two different things. The sign points to the event. In this case, the sign points to Yom Teruah, the Feast of Trumpets, with a one lunar cycle advance notice (Oct 20-21) because the 7th month and first day (new moon) are now the 8th month and first day (new moon). How awesome is that? The sign gives us comfort and allows us to stay awake and vigilant giving us time to continue advancing God's kingdom and growing His family for an additional month. The barley needing another month and the leap year are one and the same for 2017. God required the first fruit grain offering to be in the mature and harvestable stage. Much like the lamb needed to be blemish free before being offered as a sacrifice. If the barley fields prove to not be ready for harvest, then the new year begins after the next new moon in the lunar cycle, which would be in 30 days when by that time the grain would be mature enough to harvest and offered to God as an approved first fruit. This is what is meant by the leap year and this is why the fall feasts that we just experienced were actually one new moon cycle too early according to God's calendar and time requirements this time around. It would be like us in the west moving Jan. 1st to Feb. 1st to celebrate the New Year if the grain was still too immature to harvest. It's all about God and His timing that sets the New Year calendar that we should be connecting the feast days to. It is impossible to know future year feast dates without knowing the state and condition of the barley fields for harvest in any given year. Although Rosh HaShanah at present is always celebrated on the first of Tishri, there was one time when it moved nine days later to the tenth of the month: That was on a Jubilee year. Leviticus 25:9 says that the Jubilee year was to be announced by the blowing of the shofar on the tenth of Tishri, the Day of Atonement: October 31, 2017. On this Jubilee year: both the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) and Rosh Hashanah (Feast of Trumpets) are celebrated on the same day (10th of Tishri). The new moon will be spotted in Jerusalem on Saturday, October 21st (SEE: torahcalendar.com/Calendar.asp?YM=Y2017M8 “Choose Hebrew Month 8”) that means that the first day of Tishri is Sunday, October 22nd and the 10th day of Tishri he would be October 31st. (SEE: www.biblearchaeology.org/post/2015/07/25/Evidence-for-Inerrancy-from-a-Second-Unexpected-Source-The-Jubilee-and-Sabbatical-Cycles.aspx) Thus Sukkot (The Feast of Tabernacles) would run from 14th day to the 22nd day of the Hebrew Month or from November 4th to November 12th on the Gregorian calendar.
Ok, if anyone read all of that, one probably has enough information to at least consider the speculation that the 7th day of Hanukkah may not technically start until 1/21/18. Why that was important to me was because of the words Enoch and Hanukkah being from the same root meaning for dedication. Here’s one quick link I found to support this statement.
www.google.com/amp/s/twelvebooks.wordpress.com/2010/11/15/lisa-taylor-15-nov-2010-enoch-and-hanukkah/amp/
Also involving the 7th day of Hanukkah we have the story of Esther being crowned Queen. I am going off of memory here, so please correct me if I am wrong, but the day Esther was crowned would be the 1st of Tevet, which has historically been a very bad day for the Jews. If true, what a good day for the start of the tribulation, while the Body of Christ is hopefully being presented before God and tossing their crowns back at his feet.
www.fivedoves.com/letters/nov2012/reneem1110-1.htm
Considering now the ideas mentioned previously about 120 and this number's potential significance with the rapture through Pentecost, Noah, the 6,000th year or 120th jubilee (120 jubilee’s * 50), and this date also being the day of Esther's crowning, if its potentially the last day of Hanukkah, I conclude that there may be a connection between the “Revelations 12 Sign” and 1/21/18 potentially being the rapture date.
However, let’s not forget the Eclipse and those extra 33 days between them, which nets a total of 153 days. This 153 is really why I’m getting excited, although I’m trying to temper my anticipation. Let’s look at Wikipedia really quick,
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/153_(number)
Take note that 153 is the 17th triangular number. Even mentioned in Wikipedia is that it’s the limit to some odd algorithm. I also found interesting the following sentence, “Since, it is a 3-narcissistic number, and it is also the smallest three-digit number which can be expressed as the sum of cubes of its digits.”
Anyways, moving on to something valuable, we have the story of the 153 fish being caught by the apostles. This is the great catch where the nets did not break. The “fishers of men” biblical reference connects the Body of Christ to fish; hence the modern fish symbols pasted as bumper stickers on the back of cars. Might this miracle connect the numerology of 153 to the rapture? Might the 33 days from the eclipse + the 120 days from the Rev. 12 Sign to the potential “true” 7th day of Hanukkah give us a hint of 153 days of signs until the greatest catch ever?
Obviously, I don’t know, but check out this post that I found from someone at Watchman on the Wall.

Sorry for another huge wall of text, but I’m going to paste the good parts for reference.
(26 Apr 2015)
"Harpazo & 518: Enoch and the 153 fish"
Readers-
Here is where the actual last days Catching Away is in the Bible:
1 Thessalonians 4:17
" Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."
Harpazo is the greek word for "caught up" with an in-text value of:
518
518 = 37 x 14
That tells you something right off. 37 is the divine number used in the Lord's own name of 2368 which is:
Jesus (888) which is 37 x 24
Christ (1480) which is 37 x 40
888 + 1480 = 2368
37 is the base prime for the High Priest's Breastpiece of 3700.
37 is one of the base primes for Genesis 1:1 (2701 = 37 x 73)
yes, 37 is in many Bible words, but it is notable that it is in this passage.
****
The thing, though, that is the most notable to me about the 518 number is this little bit of addition:
365 + 153 = 518
There's some theology in that equation.
365 is how old Enoch was when he was "taken". Enoch appears to be the forerunner "type" of the Catching Away in Genesis 5.
****
Later this person updated this article with another finding.
According to the Bible Wheel data base, there are two verses in the Bible that have a word in them valued at 2190:
John 21:11
"Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken."
Roman's 11:25
"For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in."
Paul says that the partial blindness on Israel, and the end of the Gentile Age, is a mystery that he didn't want his readers to be ignorant of. Israel's partial blindness ends when a predetermined (fullness) number of Gentiles come into the Kingdom.
John 21:11 and Roman's 11:25 are recounting the same event.
Also of note is that the 2190 valued word in both verses is the 17th word, and that the 17th triangle number = 153.
****
Ok, did you guys catch the connections to Enoch, his age when raptured, and the very interesting connection between John 21:11 and Roman’s 11:25, by the 17th word (think 153 being the 17th triangular number)? The real cool part for me was that these two numerically connected versus contain not only the Bible's one and only instance of the 153 fish story (infact the only 153 in the while Bible too... I think), but also the other verse was written higher on my whiteboard, due to its connections with Revelations 12:1-2, when one cross links ideas to get from "when the fulness of the Gentiles will come in" to "the woman in labor." That’s just amazing to me and is why I am now willing to expect 153 to play some part in God's awesome rapture plans.
In conclusion to my story, after writing down John 21:11 & Romans 11:25 I drew arrows to the words (153 fish story) and (Israel’s blindness until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in) respectively. The until is now underlined and has an arrow pointing to my 153 day count between the eclipse and 1/21/18, which says (153 days until the great catch?).
Soon enough we’ll find out if the eclipse and Revelations 12 Sign not only gave a story, but also gave a date. Thanks for reading. Feel free to post further ideas or constructive criticism below. I would enjoy reading other people’s comments. I have no biblical training and am just reading about what interests me and trying to connect dots that I’ve seen in other people’s ideas.
Thanks,

EDIT#1: As shown in a video link in a below comment, 1/21/18 is also 120 days before Pentecost. Awesome find in light the the following verse in John, "Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest."
Remember that a biblical year is 360 days, so 4 month's earlier to harvest would be 120 days. If you are not familiar with the different feasts, here is a link to a webpage about Pentacost.
It's a harvest festival!

EDIT#2: Posted below in more detail, but if the dragon's tail in revelations 12:4 started sweeping (1/3) of the stars on 9/23/17 and since a biblical year is 360 days, then regardless of being clueless to what is the red dragon, one might still conclude that the tail sweeping will take 120 days to complete, which gets us right to 1/21/18. Maybe Revelations 12:2 gave us the point in time to start the clock running and Revelations 12:4 gives the duration until the "caught up" event in verse 5? =)
EDIT#3: As is noted in a comment below, 1/21/18 is also 70 days after the Jupiter/Venus conjunction on 11/13/17. If interested, check out the tread to see why this seems significant. There is too many awesome finds throughout this tread to try and add them all to this first post.
FINAL EDIT: Check out the top post on page six, which may just wrap together the last blood moon tetrad, to the 8/21/17 eclipse, to the "Rev. 12 Sign" to a Pentecost rapture, where 1/21/18 would be the mid-point between the Rev. 12 Sign and a potential Pentecost rapture with 120 day splits on both sides.

Why that was important to me was because of the words Enoch and Hanukkah being from the same root meaning for dedication. Here’s one quick link I found to support this statement.

Also involving the 7th day of Hanukkah we have the story of Esther being crowned Queen. I am going off of memory here, so please correct me if I am wrong, but the day Esther was crowned would be the 1st of Tevet, which has historically been a very bad day for the Jews. If true, what a good day for the start of the tribulation, while the Body of Christ is hopefully being presented before God and tossing their crowns back at his feet.

Considering now the ideas mentioned previously about 120 and this number's potential significance with the rapture through Pentecost, Noah, the 6,000th year or 120th jubilee (120 jubilee’s * 50), and this date also being the day of Esther's crowning, if its potentially the last day of Hanukkah, I conclude that there may be a connection between the “Revelations 12 Sign” and 1/21/18 potentially being the rapture date.
However, let’s not forget the Eclipse and those extra 33 days between them, which nets a total of 153 days. This 153 is really why I’m getting excited, although I’m trying to temper my anticipation. Let’s look at Wikipedia really quick,
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/153_(number)
Take note that 153 is the 17th triangular number. Even mentioned in Wikipedia is that it’s the limit to some odd algorithm. I also found interesting the following sentence, “Since, it is a 3-narcissistic number, and it is also the smallest three-digit number which can be expressed as the sum of cubes of its digits.”
Anyways, moving on to something valuable, we have the story of the 153 fish being caught by the apostles. This is the great catch where the nets did not break. The “fishers of men” biblical reference connects the Body of Christ to fish; hence the modern fish symbols pasted as bumper stickers on the back of cars. Might this miracle connect the numerology of 153 to the rapture? Might the 33 days from the eclipse + the 120 days from the Rev. 12 Sign to the potential “true” 7th day of Hanukkah give us a hint of 153 days of signs until the greatest catch ever?
Obviously, I don’t know, but check out this post that I found from someone at Watchman on the Wall.

Sorry for another huge wall of text, but I’m going to paste the good parts for reference.

"Harpazo & 518: Enoch and the 153 fish"
Readers-
Here is where the actual last days Catching Away is in the Bible:
1 Thessalonians 4:17
" Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."
Harpazo is the greek word for "caught up" with an in-text value of:
518
518 = 37 x 14
That tells you something right off. 37 is the divine number used in the Lord's own name of 2368 which is:
Jesus (888) which is 37 x 24
Christ (1480) which is 37 x 40
888 + 1480 = 2368
37 is the base prime for the High Priest's Breastpiece of 3700.
37 is one of the base primes for Genesis 1:1 (2701 = 37 x 73)
yes, 37 is in many Bible words, but it is notable that it is in this passage.
****
The thing, though, that is the most notable to me about the 518 number is this little bit of addition:
365 + 153 = 518
There's some theology in that equation.
365 is how old Enoch was when he was "taken". Enoch appears to be the forerunner "type" of the Catching Away in Genesis 5.
****
Later this person updated this article with another finding.
According to the Bible Wheel data base, there are two verses in the Bible that have a word in them valued at 2190:
John 21:11
"Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken."
Roman's 11:25
"For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in."
Paul says that the partial blindness on Israel, and the end of the Gentile Age, is a mystery that he didn't want his readers to be ignorant of. Israel's partial blindness ends when a predetermined (fullness) number of Gentiles come into the Kingdom.
John 21:11 and Roman's 11:25 are recounting the same event.
Also of note is that the 2190 valued word in both verses is the 17th word, and that the 17th triangle number = 153.
****
Ok, did you guys catch the connections to Enoch, his age when raptured, and the very interesting connection between John 21:11 and Roman’s 11:25, by the 17th word (think 153 being the 17th triangular number)? The real cool part for me was that these two numerically connected versus contain not only the Bible's one and only instance of the 153 fish story (infact the only 153 in the while Bible too... I think), but also the other verse was written higher on my whiteboard, due to its connections with Revelations 12:1-2, when one cross links ideas to get from "when the fulness of the Gentiles will come in" to "the woman in labor." That’s just amazing to me and is why I am now willing to expect 153 to play some part in God's awesome rapture plans.
In conclusion to my story, after writing down John 21:11 & Romans 11:25 I drew arrows to the words (153 fish story) and (Israel’s blindness until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in) respectively. The until is now underlined and has an arrow pointing to my 153 day count between the eclipse and 1/21/18, which says (153 days until the great catch?).
Soon enough we’ll find out if the eclipse and Revelations 12 Sign not only gave a story, but also gave a date. Thanks for reading. Feel free to post further ideas or constructive criticism below. I would enjoy reading other people’s comments. I have no biblical training and am just reading about what interests me and trying to connect dots that I’ve seen in other people’s ideas.
Thanks,

EDIT#1: As shown in a video link in a below comment, 1/21/18 is also 120 days before Pentecost. Awesome find in light the the following verse in John, "Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest."
Remember that a biblical year is 360 days, so 4 month's earlier to harvest would be 120 days. If you are not familiar with the different feasts, here is a link to a webpage about Pentacost.
It's a harvest festival!

EDIT#2: Posted below in more detail, but if the dragon's tail in revelations 12:4 started sweeping (1/3) of the stars on 9/23/17 and since a biblical year is 360 days, then regardless of being clueless to what is the red dragon, one might still conclude that the tail sweeping will take 120 days to complete, which gets us right to 1/21/18. Maybe Revelations 12:2 gave us the point in time to start the clock running and Revelations 12:4 gives the duration until the "caught up" event in verse 5? =)
EDIT#3: As is noted in a comment below, 1/21/18 is also 70 days after the Jupiter/Venus conjunction on 11/13/17. If interested, check out the tread to see why this seems significant. There is too many awesome finds throughout this tread to try and add them all to this first post.
FINAL EDIT: Check out the top post on page six, which may just wrap together the last blood moon tetrad, to the 8/21/17 eclipse, to the "Rev. 12 Sign" to a Pentecost rapture, where 1/21/18 would be the mid-point between the Rev. 12 Sign and a potential Pentecost rapture with 120 day splits on both sides.
