Truth about christmas!

Hello everyone!:wave:

u know im always looking for the facts, the truth about the myths, and the explanation of just about everything:D (im a very curious person!^^;)

so, as promised, ill now bring u the truth about the christmas holiday:;) (was planing to do it yesterday but got busy;P)
----- WARNING!! --- SPOILERS INSIDE!! ----- :D

"Jesus Christ was born of the virgin Mary on December 25th in Bethlehem, his birth was announced by a star in the east, which three kings or magi followed to locate and adorn the new savior."

Now, the birth sequence is completely astrological. The star in the east is Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, which, on December 24th, aligns with the 3 brightest stars in Orion's Belt. These 3 bright stars are called today what they were called in ancient times: The Three Kings. The Three Kings and the brightest star, Sirius, all point to the place of the sunrise on December 25th. This is why the Three Kings "follow" the star in the east, in order to locate the sunrise -- the birth of the sun.

The Virgin Mary is the constellation Virgo, also known as Virgo the Virgin. Virgo in Latin means virgin. The ancient glyph for Virgo is the altered "m". This is why Mary along with other virgin mothers, such as Adonis's mother Myrrha, or Buddha's mother Maya begin with an M. Virgo is also referred to as the House of Bread, and the representation of Virgo is a virgin holding a sheaf of wheat. This House of Bread and its symbol of wheat represents August and September, the time of harvest. In turn, Bethlehem, in fact, literally translates to "house of bread". Bethlehem is thus a reference to the constellation Virgo, a place in the sky, not on Earth.

There is another very interesting phenomenon that occurs around December 25th, or the winter solstice. From the summer solstice to the winter solstice, the days become shorter and colder. From the perspective of the northern hemisphere, the sun appears to be circling south and get smaller and more scarce. The shortening of the days and the expiration of the crops when approaching the winter solstice symbolized the process of death to the ancients. It was the death of the Sun. By December 22nd, the Sun's demise was fully realized, for the Sun, having moved south continually for 6 months, makes it to it's lowest point in the sky. Here a curious thing occurs: the Sun stops moving south, at least perceivably, for 3 days. During this 3 day pause, the Sun resides in the vicinity of the Southern Cross, or Crux, constellation. And after this time on December 25th, the Sun moves 1 degree, this time north, foreshadowing longer days, warmth, and Spring. And thus it was said: the Sun died on the cross, was dead for 3 days, only to be resurrected or born again. This is why Jesus and numerous other Sun Gods share the crucifixion, 3-day death, and resurrection concept. It is the Sun's transition period before it shifts its direction back into the Northern Hemisphere, bringing Spring, and thus salvation

However, they did not celebrate the resurrection of the Sun until the spring equinox, or Easter. This is because at the spring equinox, the Sun officially overpowers the evil darkness, as daytime thereafter becomes longer in duration than night, and the revitalizing conditions of spring emerge

---------- SPOILER END ---------- ;)

i have lots of more info, like WHY the cross is the symbol of christianity/catholicism, and even small things like the crown of thorns in jesus' head's meaning and stuff:D but this is quite long already so i may just leave it there for now, and if u want, ill continue some other time ;)

thank u all for the continuous support, comments, :+fav: & :+devwatch:!!!:w00t:
:hug::highfive::w00t:

hi everyone!!!:wave:

its been some time since my last journal:P but not much had been going on, not many news or even tags to do:P and theres a phrase that says "if u got nothing smart to say, dont say anything!" :lol:

ive continued playing LOTS to the mmo "rappelz" (such a great game :D) and added several facebook games to the "always playing" list:lol:

in other news, theres this event that where i go take drawing lessons make every year for their students to show what they've made through the year (and also kinda promote themselves to get more ppl ;) :lol:) but its a very nice show, it has a part with a pretty big stage for the singing, playing and dancing classes, and an indoor area full of all the other classes like cooking, weaving, flower arrangements and stuff, and also the gallery part with all the drawing, painting and photography classes;)

point is, i posted my "a slow dance" [link] and in the hour or so i could attend, there were ppl going by it liking it!:aww: whats more, there was one of the guys with plastic tags on the shirt (an admin or guide or something) pulling someone to see a drawing saying "its great! come!" and to my surprise, it was leading her to MY drawing!!:omfg: my face was:iconjohn-le-fucker: we were talking a bit and gave him this url ;)

in the meantime, my current drawing is progressing steadly and good ;) ive the main parts already done, but still have a few parts to do that are likely to require a bit of work, but itll be fine ;)

as always, i much appreciate all support, feedback, favs, and watches, and of course all the good vibes i always get here :aww: :hug: :highfive: :bow: ;)
