Apocalypse of John - Dated astronomically

This Article is the author's translation of the German version


In the month of March in 1907 the Russian astronomer Nikolai Alexandrovich Morozov (Морозов Николай Александрович, 1854-1946) published the book "Revelation within Thunderstorm and Tempest. History of the Apocalypses Origin." (After an intervention of the orthodox clergy, the book was placed on the index in the following year.) In his book Morozov makes the case that the Book of Revelation is describing the astronomical constellation over the island of Patmos on Sunday, September 30th, 395 (Julian year). Morozov presumes that the highly educated John was capable to calculate the Saros cycle and, therefore, did observe the sky on this day in attendance of a solar eclipse. (This eclipse did occur indeed - over South America, however[1]).

Morozov states:

1. The weekday of the event is named explicitly:

  • Rev. 1,10: I was in the Spirit on Sunday...

2. The description of the skies starts quite systematically at the pole with a constellation named Throne (today: Ursa Minor):

  • Rev. 4,2: And a throne was set in heaven...

3. The text continues mentioning the Milky Way and the signs of the zodiac denoting the four seasons: Lion, Taurus, Sagittarius and Eagle (today: Aquarius):

  • Rev. 4,6-7: And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind. And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.

4. The four horses were interpreted by Morozov as traditional metaphors for the planets Jupiter, Mars, Mercury and Saturn. The constellations Sagittarius, Perseus, Libra and Scorpion were sitting on them:

  • Rev. 6,2: And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow;
  • Rev. 6,4: And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
  • Rev. 6,5: And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
  • Rev. 6,8: And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.

5. Sun and Moon were named explicitly. The only female character within the zodiac is Virgo:

  • Rev. 12,1: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.

As a Harlot, the planet Venus will be blamed, eventually. Venus, the symbol of female eroticism, united with the red star Antares (Anti-Mars) within the constellation Scorpion:

  • Rev. 17,3-4: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.


The description within the Book of Revelation matches exactly the Constellation for the Julian date 30-9-395.

Figure of Rev. Assignment Constellation Body Right ascen. Declination
1 Sun Woman (dress) Virgo Sun 12h 27m 56s -3° 02.9
2 Moon Woman (feet) Virgo Moon 12h 19m 00s -2° 50.5
3 White horse Bow Sagittarius Jupiter 17h 56m 56s -24° 01.5
4 Pale horse Death Scorpion Saturn 14h 40m 40s -13° 45.5
5 Dark horse Balances Libra Mercury 13h 52m 38s -14° 54.5
6 Red horse Swordsman Perseus / Aries Mars 00h 59m 38s +3° 31.2
7 Woman / Whore Red beast Antares, Scorpion Venus 14h 54m 50s 18° 22.9

Right ascension and Declination for the island of Patmos at 15:00 UTC on this day were calculated using the program Yoursky[2]:

Sun, Moon and the 3 outer and 2 inner planets will produce 3.732.480 combinations within the 12 signs of the zodiac (12^5 × 5 × 3). Therefore, an accidental match is quite unlikely.


At this point criticism on Chronology begins: Common understanding says, referring to Irenaeus (Haer. V,30,3), that the Revelation to John has been written down near the end of the reign of the Roman emperor Domitian (81-96). Consequently, either the Relevation has been dated some three centuries too old, or the reign of Domitian has.

Steven H. Pollock

Dr. Steven H. Pollock MD, a physician and a mycologist who was the discoverer of the rare Psilocybe tampanensis mushroom. He found an isolated specimen of this mushroom in September 1977 on a field trip in Florida, close to Tampa after which the mushroom is named. The species has only ever been observed in the wild one other time after the initial discovery and collection in Mississippi. Attempts to cultivate from this find were unfortunately unsuccessful.

In 1979, another famous mycologist Dr. Gaston Guzman, along with Stephen H. Pollock, described another new entheogenic mushroom found by them in the Naolinco region of the State of Veracruz. This species was named Psilocybe wassoniorum in honor of the famous ethnobotanist Gordon Wasson and his wife Valentina.

First Prize winner in the Leeds International Pianoforte Competition in 2000, Alessio Bax has already established himself as an accomplished performer throughout the world. He had previously won various international competitions including, at the age of nineteen, the First Prize at the Hamamatsu International Piano Competition in Japan. Praised by the international press, his performances have been described as "real music-making that makes its own world on stage and invites the audience in as guests" (The Independent), and "successfully combining authority and poetry" (The Daily Telegraph).

Festival appearances include London's International Piano Series (Queen Elizabeth Hall), the Verbier Festival in Switzerland, the Aldeburgh and Bath Festivals in England, the Ruhr Klavierfestival, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, BeethovenFest and Musikfestspiele Saar in Germany.

The journal was created by three Undergraduate English students at the University of Ottawa, Omid Amidi, Spencer Gordon, and Tyler Willis. The magazine has no official affiliation with the University, and thus has no restrictions regarding content.

The first issue of The Puritan was also a contest, awarding a cash prize to a winning submission. Steve Zytveld, organizer of the Dusty Owl Reading Series in Ottawa, won for his novel excerpt, Graves and Trains. Amanda Earl, organizer of Bywords Quarterly Journal and bywords.ca, Cyril Dabydeen, Poet Laureate of Ottawa from 1984-87, Patricia McCarthy, Ottawa novelist and poet, and Theresa Kishkan, novelist and wife of John Pass, winner of the 2006 Governor General`s Award for Poetry (in English), were also among the artists featured in the inaugural issue.

The Puritan is distributed throughout Ottawa entirely free of charge.

The Puritan has been featured in The Ottawa Citizen and The Fulcrum (the University of Ottawa`s Independent Student Newspaper). The editors were featured on CHUO (the University of Ottawa`s radio station) and CBC Radio One`s All in a Day. The editors of the journal attended the 2006 Governor General`s Literary Awards ceremony, held at Rideau Hall.

The editors held a launch party on February 16, 2007 at the Avant-Garde Bar in Ottawa.

Apparent Age Theory

The Apparent Age Theory is view held by Young Earth creationists, it claims that the any evidence of the Big Band and evolution can can be explained by the effects of a global flood/ Noah's flood which must have totally changed rock formations. It also claims that if you accept the Bible view, then Adam was made the earth was six days old but to Adam it would have looked billions of years old because trees would have been created with rings showing them hundreds of years old; the Grand Canyon would have looked two billion years old when it was one second old.

Peter Deighan Artist

Widely regarded as the worlds greatest Portrait and Sporting artist. His paintings hang in the most prestigious collections throughout the world. Peter was born in Monaghan, in 1941 and as a 16-year-old, he left Ireland to work in England. Peter’s raw artistic talent was quickly recognised and he began to receive commissions, including one from the Duke of Bedford. He held his first major exhibition in the Duke’s stately home, Woburn Abbey. Among his earlier commissions were portraits of the comedian Eric Morecambe, footballer Jimmy Greaves, speaker of the house of Commons Selwyn Lloyd, Cardinal Basil Hume Archbishop of Westminister (His portrait hangs in the Vatican), Frederick Forsyth, Lester Piggott, Steve Davis, and the first official portrait of the Prime Minister, John Major. Some of his more noteworthy Irish portraits were of Peadar O’Donnell, Sean McBride, Charles J. Haughey and Michael O’Hehir which were unveiled on RTE's Late Late Show in Dublin. As Peter’s reputation as one of the World's leading Portrait Painters grew, he began to receive commissions from North America. His most notable patrons included Payne Stewart. Peter visited Payne Stewart’s home in Florida to paint his portrait, there he met and was commissioned to paint Tiger Woods and Mark O’Meara. Shortly after the tragic death of Payne Stewart, Peter’s portrait of the golfer sold for £1.4 million. Peter quickly established a reputation as one of the World’s leading Sporting Artists. He received commissions from prominent members of the racing fraternity, including Vincent O’Brien, JP McManus, Robert Sangster, Captain John MacDonald-Buchanan, Lord and Lady Tavistock, Sheikh Hamdan and Sheikh Mohammed Al-Maktoum. With the popularity of his equine paintings, Peter continued to receive commissions from the World of Football, Golf, Rugby, Boxing, Formula 1, and Snooker. He has had his paintings displayed in the annual exhibitions of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters and the Society of Equestrian Artists in London. Peter was commissioned to paint the 2006 European Ryder Cup team by Dr Michael Smurfit, for the K Club and he continues to receive commissions from the Rich and Famous Worldwide.

This is the fifth episode of the first series of television show Skins, focusing on the character Sid.

Plot

Sid is in trouble. Deep trouble. His coursework hasn't made the grade, he's as sexually frustrated as ever, and he can't get his best mate's girl, Michelle, out of his head.
