1. Read the book: "The Nature Fix" by Florence Williams. Spend time in nature.
2. Read the bible daily. It gives warmth, advice, guidance, wisdom and more to help you understand the positive and negative aspects of being "human"
3. Spend less time on a "phone." A little time digesting some posts on facebook per day won't hammer your emotional intelligence, but much time on a phone/texting/googling will keep you away from inner peace. Hence, do not "own" a smartphone.
4. Live more like the 1930's. Buy a wringer. Do laundry by hand. Do dishes by hand. Talk with people face to face.
5. Use the local library. Read books that matter.
6. Teach your children practical life skills. How to cook, clean, and be polite just to name a few.
7. Never allow your children to "own" themselves or their things. Friendships with each other matters. Self- belongs to creator.
8. Hope in eternity. Visit people who are closer to death and cherish last moments.
9. Share gospel. People still need to hear the truth.
10. Don't cater to gossips, liars and other people the bible warned about.

FOCUS ON THE REDEEMER
some may focus so heavily on the "Bad" in patriarchy....they miss the bad in the overall picture.
What about the bad in matriarchy homes. You know the ones where the matriarch is so insured by her self-driven life that she gambles off of her husband's money, she insults her disabled in-laws, she tells the men in the house what to do all the time with consistent anger, she drowns her-self in alcohol each night after picking her children up after day-care, she never visits her neighbor who needed a helping hand after the neighbor's boyfriend left.......
If one focus so heavily on the bad in "one group" and never see that the insult of that particular "bad" group will never fix the overall redemption for all of man-kind.
BOTH patriarchy AND Matriarchy......and overall brotherly and sisterly love NEEEEEED redemption. They in and of-them-selves are not evil (some Christian women do get abandoned to raise 5+ children on her own)...... The evil is in condemning the right ability for men and women to avoid their own internal angers which would have never been set-free had it not been for the work on the cross.

A hint. To be anti-patriarchy is to deny reality of what the scripture says.
The reason men (and women too) believe in the "muslim" religion is because it has moments of "Patriarchy." To be anti-patriarch is to create more followers of "allah".....a very close name to allahim which is close to the name Elohim(hebrew God)
.....however, as proof of the condition of their religion, the men are never asked to "repent" of their evil actions.....
Do not focus on the EVIL in men. Be a wise virgin and focus on the GOOD in Christ.
Matthew 25King James Version (KJV)
25 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

From War to Spirit Victory
Poem: From War to Spirit Victory.
Once upon a time,
I was in favor of war.
I favored ignoring the people who stood up for the fatherless.
Once upon as time,
I was in favor of war,
I favored the people who lived a pure marriage.
Once upon a time,
I was in favor of war,
I favored the people who hated the stranger.
Once upon a time,
I was in favor of war,
I ignored the widow in my community.
I did not know that I as a person, born in-wedlock was selfish.
I did not know that I as a person, born with intelligence was selfish.
I did not know that I as a person, who believed in eternity was selfish.
I did not know that I as a person, who knew people of different nationality and cultures was selfish.
He knew that I was that way.
He saw my anger.
He saw my depressions.
He saw my pride.
He saw my gossip.
He saw all of it.
But he continued to have unconditional love.
He would not give up.
He died and rose again.
So that I can understand.
How to stop favoring.
War.
Jud_1:23 "And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh."
(the garment of the flesh is a false garment.....it favors war against unconditional love of God.)

Don't be cornered by anti-patriarchy groups and writers....
The bible mentions three patriarchs most clearly resourcefully and effectively. Abraham, Issac and Jacob. All three MEN had something "wrong" with them. Were they outright "evil" no, but it came down to Levi as being a murderer of other tribe men because of daughter Dinah. So Levi was pretty brutal.
There are anti-patriarchy groups. They may say they are "pro-woman" but in their hue and tone, they are actually ANGRY at men. Men like Levi. It turns into anger vs. anger. Which doesn't amount to unconditional love.
Pro-woman is actually termed through Christ as the mediator of women. Herod's daughter demanded the head of another man, John the Baptist. Jesus didn't confront her evil desires, but he did weep over another man and woman's sin.
Pro-woman is actually termed through Christ as the mediator of women. The adulterous woman caught in the act, is not forced by Christ to have stones thrown at her. No, he bent down in the sand and drew a line in the sand. She is asked who should throw the first stone, he that was without sin. The stones were left behind and Jesus said to her, sin no more.
The anti-patriarchy groups and writers are willing to "throw stones" at innocent men. They enjoy the thrill of seeing a man accused of being a rapist when he wanted to remain married, a pedophile (when man was 18 and tried dating) and removed from the privilege of pastoring a church because he was caught describing to a young girl how to read the bible in a "lust-like" way.
It is ok to be a strong women. To stand up for your tribe. But in reality you are a stronger women when you forgive those who wrong you. To be anti-patriarchy also means to be anti-matriarchy. It is to be opposed to women who want to give birth in their own home and for women to do her own maternity care as she knows is best for her. When stooping to the low level of anti-patriarchy and anti-matriarchy, the heart is seared with unforgiveness of 'conditions" that happen in nature.
Conditions that happen in nature involve lusts, lures, temptations, losses and gains. It was that way before legal systems put 'stickers" on men's back.
Perhaps if one truly thinks about the mode of deception and false accusation driving the anti-patriarchy group and or writer, one will find in the darkest corner a rejection of brotherly love. Meaning to them they hate seeing the words in the bible which describe that Jesus said to lay life down for friends. The deceptive lure also drives in the hatred of sisterly love as well. A hatred to see women bearing one another's burdens of caring for widows and orphans.
Besides these matters, the anti-patriarchy groups also lingure in the dark view that all men are "not created equal in the eyes of creator" so they see the view of "sin" as a "light" when in fact it is complete darkness. Filled with void. Filled with hate. Filled with scorn. Filled with sadistic behavior that leads to earlier death. They may disguise it and say it is a "Culture" practice to encourage men and women to behave as prostitute of themselves, which in fact this is not a guide for holy life.
How to escape the anti-patriarch view of life? 1. Don't comment on their articles in favor of their false accusations against men. 2. Read scripture as a means to overcome personal selfish gain 3. Love your husband if you are married. Love your brother if you are not married. Love disabled and weak rejected men if your family is not Christ-focused. 4. Visit the stranger and the fatherless. 5. Speak out against the false-accuser-of-the-brethren. 5. Point out QUALITIES in men, both the faith and out of the faith through salvation in Jesus.
In summary, to be anti-patriarch is to be careless with accusation. To be careless, is to lack self-control and discernment of good vs. evil in one's OWN heart.

Number of times the planets rotate the sun per calendric cycle (qumran calendar)
Times planets rotate the sun:
in full calendric sign = 294 years
107016 + 294 = 107310 days per calendric sign
Jubilee = 49 years
Mercury: 1219.43 times (less accurate)
(Jubilee repetition not calculated due to proximity to sun)
Venus: 477 times
(Jubilee repetition not calculated due to proximity to sun)
Mars: 157? year or 156.216 times
Repeats in a pattern every 20 Jubilee. Find the planet Mars in same or close location among constellations.
3.3333 times in Calendric sign before repetition = 520.199 rotations per Jubilee pattern repetition
Jupiter: 25 times
Repeats in a pattern every 7 Jubilee. Find the planet Jupiter in same or close location among the constellations.
1.1667 times in Calendric sign before repetition = 29.1667 rotations per Jubilee pattern repetition

My posts may or may not be interesting today, but tomorrow.....
I hope they will be interesting.
If I write about something that I discovered, with divine guidance, it means that the existence is real.
People write me off as a nutty Copernicus or Galileo or worse "flat earth theory gooroo", then that is what they will do.
For example, I write that the planet Saturn (representing eternal covenant) continues to have a pattern of showing up in the same location in the sky every three Jubilee's. Like, for example, the "ringed planet" shows up from human eye view every three Jubilee's (49 year cycle) which is equivalent to 147 years (qumran calendar pattern repeats) in the constellation Betulah. The "ringed planet" happens to rotate around the sun almost every thirty years. The scripture itself does indicate that Jesus did ministry work when he was thirty.
Now this may not make much difference to a person who is not a student of the bible or of astronomy, but to those who do have an interest in the patterns of "nature" then it is of importance as well as the patterns in the bible, then these things are interesting.
Today, people ignore these little details. Tomorrow, they will say, ohhhhhh now I understand why God says the things he says about this and that because it relates to HIM as the creator of the universe.

Definition of "Decades"
conservative definition of the word "decades": 7*7 years which is equivalent to 49 years at the minimum. (short sweet and concise with meaning...no changes, no alterations, always a true and perfect pattern)
liberal definition of the word "decades": 10 years is supposed to be equivalent to one decade, but we have determined that the number "0" in the number "10" has no definition, so we don't determine that there is such a thing as a decade. There may be a deck-of-spades which is an unusual deck of cards when teaching the meaning of "Random selection." So it means a "deck of spades."

A little miracle
A couple of days ago I was talking about a friend that passed away on the internet. We were discussing how it was good that she could find bible truth to help her overcome internal pain and trials of life.
The very next day, I went to a shopping run. I was in line to check out and there, was someone discussing the wonderful blessing the Lord was in the life of the friend before she passed away. I didn't even discuss to talk about the friend that passed away, he was talking about her anyhow.
How often does that happen? Rarely for sure!
The earth is truly God's footstool......HEAVEN is the THRONE.
Acts 7:49: Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?

Metonic Cycles chart conversion to Qumran Calendar.
If you want to determine the date to use in the Qumran calendar, try converting it to metonic cycles.
Every 57 years, there are exactly 705 moons per 3 metonic cycles in both the Qumran Calendric sign and the calculations of metonic cycles.
There is a "gap" in the calculations where the full moon no longer exists immediately below the virgo constellation but jumps to another location after the spring equinox. Hence the switch to the April dates instead. This "gap" can be coordinated with true time anyhow despite the change.
Here is the link for the outline version of the Qumran calendar.

New to Christian faith? Where do you turn?
"Luke 4:18 [Full Chapter]
Are you new to the Christian faith?
Maybe you grew up as a Christian, and heard many bible stories as a child, but somehow the relationship with Jesus thing never clicked. Maybe you went through the religious ceremony like a first communion, baptism or confirmation, but never really encountered a heart change.
Maybe you grew away from the Christian believers and decided to just be popular among the crowds, pleasing the people of this world.
There are ways to identify a "new" believer. If you mark any of the following, you are a new believer if you have done any of the following in the past three years.
1. You decided to read through the bible by reading at least three chapters a day or more. (possible resources: http://www.ttb.org/, http://www.ttb.org/global-reach, messianic commentary, Adventist Commentary)
2. Your past life was in depression, pride, anger, jealousy, scorn, division, sexual impurity (including the belief that people are born with LGBT conditions), gambling, food addictions and aversions, lack of self-control, hatred, dislike of patriarchal biblical topics, fear, anxiety, abortions, impure words, unclean or immodest dress, drug addictions, alcohol addictions, social attentions and so forth. (polygny is not considered to be sexual impurity in biblical terms)
3. You never liked the idea of prayer until within the last three years.
4. You recognize the idea that some holidays are in fact commercialized, and have little to do with the gospel.
5. You are now concerned about the moral decay. You would rather do God's will for your life and fulfill it that to do your own things.
6. You now feel love for Jewish believers in Messiah, which before you did not.
7. You were once uncomfortable sharing bible with strangers, family, and friends. You now want to read bible stories to your own children.
8. You are concerned about the different changes in the bible versions available to the poor.
9. You love the idea of prayer with other believers.
10. You may think about Sabbath fellowship or fellowship at any biblical holiday time as being "ok."
11. You now enjoy listening to God's warnings for you in dreams and visions.
12. You see the disabled as friends, the poor as a companion, and the blind as a wise man. You are ok with suffering along with the weak people of this world.
You may not be a "new" believer if you mark any of the following.
1. You continue to provide flowers to your local church building. Your church building has the best resources to educate your children in the bible and you do not believe you could do so. Membership with church group is essential for faith. (though Christians an use these as a means to provide spiritual strength)
2. You continue to mock bible thumpers, and believe they are always conservative voters in the elections.
3. You continue to hold grudges in your local synagogue or church fellowship if people don't perform "your way"
4. Your education means everything to you. Only smart people are good people.
5. You think it is strange when people try to read the bible 5 or more times a day. Constantly memorizing bible verses.
6. You continue to have depression, anger, bitterness and so forth.
7. Prayer seems like a discouragement rather than an encouragement
8. Popularity and cheating on the tests to make a grade are important to get ahead in this world.
9. You believe abortions and using money from wealthy widows is ok in God's eyes in your community.
10. You don't see the purpose of loving Jewish people or middle eastern people.
11. Sexual impurity is anything that the false Christians do, but you continue to lust after other women, or men never discussing the issue with the current spouse. If single, you sense that only marriage can solve your desires. You continue to believe that once a fornicator, a gay person or an adulterer, rapist, always an addict to sexual impurity.
12. You do not desire to understand Passover, the feast of tabernacles, the meaning of the psalms and proverbs or other little details of the bible.
********************
So if you have marked the upper 12 and can say for sure that you have been through a "born again" experience (https://unshackled.org/), and perhaps also an "anointing of the holy spirit" (Acts 2:4 - speaking in tongues, visions etc. isn't bad, it is a representation of the spirit, where some are more attuned than others), then you are on the road to victory in Christ alone.
Bondage is the biggest issue. Christ can to set people FREE from their sin.
So when you stopped playing along with the pattern of the world and found the transformation of your mind to the heart of Christ, then you can find true fellowship with the body of Christ and with other believers around the world. Preaching of orphans in Afganistan seems like a good goal in mind for the strong and the mighty in Christ.
Where can you turn for strength?
1. The word. Always pick up the bible and read it. Try the Parashah method of reading. It works perfectly to transform mind and heart to Christ. If other believers are not near your home, this is possible to find strength in the middle of the wilderness even through bible study. Try reading the bible by following this Parashah method: http://raggedycottagegarden.blogspot.com/2014/07/a-bible-reading-system.html
2. Prayer. Pray for all sorts of things. Write down prayers according to the words, stories, and verses in the bible and ask God for things that are according to his word. Try a prayer group like this: https://momsinprayer.org
3. A gathering fellowship can help strengthen your faith in Jesus/Messiah: http://raggedycottagegarden.blogspot.com/2015/10/workmanship-churches.html
4. Continue to put away bad books, music, movies and so forth that do not lead to right living. Seek fellowship with widows, strangers, orphans, the poor and more to help give THEM comfort and strength in trials of life. Try reading books from https://www.clp.org/, https://messianicjewish.net or https://www.adventistbookcenter.com/ instead.
5. Live a more natural life instead of greedy life. Christians are "not of this world." Plan to clean your small basic home and vehicle often enough to feel comfort in this life. Learn the pattern of suffering in the people that surround you. Pick up a book about the suffering of the people www.truthforfree.com, www.holocaustsurvivors.org, http://www.persecution.com/, http://endgenocide.org/learn/past-genocides/native-americans/
6. If you once were labeled, or labeled your self as "a gambler," "a sex porn star," "a homosexual," "bipolar," "anxiety condition" and so forth, these things are actually a sort of bondage labeling program. If the hospital system or criminal system, educational system or any other system labels you with various things, be sure to either pray for escape from the false labeling, as a person who is NEW in Christ is a NEW person. (Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new.) Seek to understand that you WILL have enemies in this world, who may even be of your own family, so seek independent living from allowing them to label you falsely (read psalms and proverbs daily to help understand social struggles). Forgive any family who falsely labels you as anyone but a Christ follower or a general person who desires the "abundant life" Christ offers.
If you are in the process of getting a degree or furthering education, check out the resources in the upper right hand corner of this website to help you develop faith in the middle of the education process. It is possible to have lots of strength in faith even if the education you received was only until you were 12-14 years old.
For more information check out: http://hens-and-chicks.blogspot.com/2015/10/educational-tracts.html
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,"

4. You recognize the idea that some holidays are in fact commercialized, and have little to do with the gospel.
5. You are now concerned about the moral decay. You would rather do God's will for your life and fulfill it that to do your own things.
6. You now feel love for Jewish believers in Messiah, which before you did not.
7. You were once uncomfortable sharing bible with strangers, family, and friends. You now want to read bible stories to your own children.
8. You are concerned about the different changes in the bible versions available to the poor.
9. You love the idea of prayer with other believers.
10. You may think about Sabbath fellowship or fellowship at any biblical holiday time as being "ok."
11. You now enjoy listening to God's warnings for you in dreams and visions.
12. You see the disabled as friends, the poor as a companion, and the blind as a wise man. You are ok with suffering along with the weak people of this world.
You may not be a "new" believer if you mark any of the following.
1. You continue to provide flowers to your local church building. Your church building has the best resources to educate your children in the bible and you do not believe you could do so. Membership with church group is essential for faith. (though Christians an use these as a means to provide spiritual strength)
2. You continue to mock bible thumpers, and believe they are always conservative voters in the elections.
3. You continue to hold grudges in your local synagogue or church fellowship if people don't perform "your way"
4. Your education means everything to you. Only smart people are good people.
5. You think it is strange when people try to read the bible 5 or more times a day. Constantly memorizing bible verses.
6. You continue to have depression, anger, bitterness and so forth.
7. Prayer seems like a discouragement rather than an encouragement
8. Popularity and cheating on the tests to make a grade are important to get ahead in this world.
9. You believe abortions and using money from wealthy widows is ok in God's eyes in your community.
10. You don't see the purpose of loving Jewish people or middle eastern people.
11. Sexual impurity is anything that the false Christians do, but you continue to lust after other women, or men never discussing the issue with the current spouse. If single, you sense that only marriage can solve your desires. You continue to believe that once a fornicator, a gay person or an adulterer, rapist, always an addict to sexual impurity.
12. You do not desire to understand Passover, the feast of tabernacles, the meaning of the psalms and proverbs or other little details of the bible.
********************
So if you have marked the upper 12 and can say for sure that you have been through a "born again" experience (https://unshackled.org/), and perhaps also an "anointing of the holy spirit" (Acts 2:4 - speaking in tongues, visions etc. isn't bad, it is a representation of the spirit, where some are more attuned than others), then you are on the road to victory in Christ alone.
Bondage is the biggest issue. Christ can to set people FREE from their sin.
So when you stopped playing along with the pattern of the world and found the transformation of your mind to the heart of Christ, then you can find true fellowship with the body of Christ and with other believers around the world. Preaching of orphans in Afganistan seems like a good goal in mind for the strong and the mighty in Christ.
Where can you turn for strength?
1. The word. Always pick up the bible and read it. Try the Parashah method of reading. It works perfectly to transform mind and heart to Christ. If other believers are not near your home, this is possible to find strength in the middle of the wilderness even through bible study. Try reading the bible by following this Parashah method: http://raggedycottagegarden.blogspot.com/2014/07/a-bible-reading-system.html
2. Prayer. Pray for all sorts of things. Write down prayers according to the words, stories, and verses in the bible and ask God for things that are according to his word. Try a prayer group like this: https://momsinprayer.org
3. A gathering fellowship can help strengthen your faith in Jesus/Messiah: http://raggedycottagegarden.blogspot.com/2015/10/workmanship-churches.html
4. Continue to put away bad books, music, movies and so forth that do not lead to right living. Seek fellowship with widows, strangers, orphans, the poor and more to help give THEM comfort and strength in trials of life. Try reading books from https://www.clp.org/, https://messianicjewish.net or https://www.adventistbookcenter.com/ instead.
5. Live a more natural life instead of greedy life. Christians are "not of this world." Plan to clean your small basic home and vehicle often enough to feel comfort in this life. Learn the pattern of suffering in the people that surround you. Pick up a book about the suffering of the people www.truthforfree.com, www.holocaustsurvivors.org, http://www.persecution.com/, http://endgenocide.org/learn/past-genocides/native-americans/
6. If you once were labeled, or labeled your self as "a gambler," "a sex porn star," "a homosexual," "bipolar," "anxiety condition" and so forth, these things are actually a sort of bondage labeling program. If the hospital system or criminal system, educational system or any other system labels you with various things, be sure to either pray for escape from the false labeling, as a person who is NEW in Christ is a NEW person. (Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new.) Seek to understand that you WILL have enemies in this world, who may even be of your own family, so seek independent living from allowing them to label you falsely (read psalms and proverbs daily to help understand social struggles). Forgive any family who falsely labels you as anyone but a Christ follower or a general person who desires the "abundant life" Christ offers.
If you are in the process of getting a degree or furthering education, check out the resources in the upper right hand corner of this website to help you develop faith in the middle of the education process. It is possible to have lots of strength in faith even if the education you received was only until you were 12-14 years old.

First Passover Astronomy.
What did the heavens look like during the time of the first Passover?
Perhaps the events from passover symbolized many things which later developed into the Jewish Holiday event.
By using Qumran calendar date methods (new moon is the 14th day of Abib after Barley harvest).... A person can find the FIRST Passover event from astronomy study.
Notice how all seven visible moving lights (5 planets-sun-moon) (represent menorah), are visible at the noon hour. This is image taken in 1440 BC (educated sources say this is first Passover time frame http://www.hope-of-israel.org/pharexod.htm). This date is 25 Nisan 2321 in modern day Jewish calendar. Also notice how the three planets Mars, Venus and Jupiter are all below the ram.....symbolizing the blood on the door posts perhaps....before the Passover. Three great pyramids symbolize connection to Orion's belt.
Other sources say 1446 BC....but the planet Jupiter is below Virgo (Betulah).....maybe this symbolizes Virgin give birth to nation of Israel.
Furthermore using (http://www.rosettacalendar.com/).....the passover event falls on the third day of the week.....justifying the pattern that lead up to Christ on the cross.
???? This is actually in Question post???? and cannot be taken 100% literally. The thing that is literal is that the three planets did plant themselves below the ram....in 1440 BC during the first new moon in barley harvest.

Feast of Unleavened Bread: Miracle Planet Alignments
The image above shows the pattern of the moon as it traveled during the Feast of Unleavened Bread in Ad 31.
Not according to modern day Judaism Calendar, but according to arrangements from Qumran Calendar (new moon below the ram of sacrifice)....leads to patterns in the heavens.
1. The evening of Passover (14th) the moon is positioned above Mercury.
2. The 6th hour to the 9th hour (14th) the moon is positioned above the planet Jupiter. A TRIPLE conjunction (moon-planet-sun)
3. The 15th day of the month (special high Sabbath) the moon hits no planets and Christ/Messiah is in the grave.
4. The 16th day of the month the moon hits no planets and Christ/Messiah is in the grave.
5. The 17th day of the month the moon comes just before the planets Venus and Mars in conjunction. Christ/Messiah is in the grave.
6. The 18th day of the month is the Sabbath. The moon passes the planetary conjunction of Venus and Mars. Perhaps Christ rose at the time when the moon passed the conjunction. No one visited the grave at that time.
7. The 19th day of the month is the First Fruits and First Day of the week. Scripture Mentioned that the Messiah was visible on the first day of the week. The moon is near the planet Saturn for the fifth movable planet to find itself located near the moon.
8. The 20th day of the month is the 6th day of the feast of unleavened bread. The crab represents sight/hidden refrain from hidden distractions
9. The 21st day of the month is the final day of the feast of unleavened bread. The moon is positioned exactly between the claws of the crab and the crab looks directly at the moon. Direct pursuits to that of spiritual readiness, insight, holiness, self-examination, and elimination of bondage. Eyes focused on scripture and seeking whom is in need in the world, overcomes burdens.
ALL SEVEN movable visible heavenly bodies are visible during this week within the given time frame (moon-sun-first 5 planets). Timing of biblical events line up with the planet positions.
Further Information: Feast of First Fruits: http://raggedycottagegarden.blogspot.com/2017/04/first-fruits-ad-31-vs-ad-2017.html
When did Jesus Rise from the Grave: http://raggedycottagegarden.blogspot.com/2017/04/first-fruits-ad-31-vs-ad-2017.html
A person can use this information and decide to follow the Lord in Truth (perhaps start a Messianic type of fellowship with a Qumran Calendar coord-i-nation) or a person can simply accept the truth as it is and continue living for the Lord right from where he or she is planet-ed.
