Feast of Dedication 2017-2018 (Qumran Calendar calculation)

Assuming that the Feast of Dedication occured around, on or after the winter solstice, and considering that the FULL moon in the first calendar cycle (Qumran Calendar) would indicate the time for the Feast of Dedication, then the sky would "light up" in a certain way as to indicate time for the celebration and re-dedication of the temple.  A couple things that must occur: It must be the Qumran Calendar date of 9-24 and the FULL moon must be in the sky.




Notice how the moon is full at the constellation "Gemini" (twins represent anything Jacob-Esau, Cain-Able, Ephraim-Manasseh etc.) and then within 8 days the moon has passed through the "woman." (This was the possible time for Jesus' conception)  Perhaps this could mean something, perhaps it is a symbol of how God's promise to us is still in the rededication of our lives to him.

This is a great devotional for those who have learned about Jesus presence in celebration of Hanakah (Feast of Dedication) from John chapter 10 https://www.facebook.com/AboveRubiesUS/posts/2137491042944727


Here is further information about how the "lamp" in the tabernacle symbolizes his continual presence:
THE MENORAH


We should definitely focus on rededicating our lives to his goodness and mercy!  He is most compassionate.

Go ahead and try to light up a "seven" candle-stick menorah......much light will fill up the room!


(In Ojibwe astronomy the "great panther" represents the constellation "leo" in a little different way)
