New Comet Discovery--More Parallels With Mira and the Red Dragon

Interesting coincidences were piling up around a month ago on the date August 15, 2007. At the time, the Internet had been abuzz with speculation about an upcoming date, August 18th, which had been deciphered from a series of crop circles in England. With many already in anticipation of some world-changing event, a homily was given by Pope Benedict filled with references to the "red dragon" of the Book of Revelation and, on the same day, details of an amazing discovery were released by NASA regarding new properties of a known star, Mira, unlike any ever seen before. Interestingly, Mira herself is located in the constellation Cetus (gr, Whale). This constellation has been associated with ancient Mother of the Gods of Babylon, Tiamat. Tiamat is the dragon goddess of chaos who battled the Marduk the god of justice and light.

Once again we are drawn to the constellation Cetus with the discovery of a new comet, "P/2007S1(ZHAO)", named after the Chinese astronomer who recently discovered it. Coincidentally, the newly found comet was discovered in the constellation Cetus. Another reference to the red dragon comes to light: China has often been referred to as such! The constellation Cetus seems to be trying to tell us something.

Cetus is amidst a portion of the sky associated with the water signs of the zodiac: Pisces, Aquarius and Eridanus. Is it another coincidence that we are drawn to this wet portion of the heavens at a time when reports of record glacial meltdowns are going on around the planet? Perhaps forecasts of sea-level rises have been underestimated. Certainly, we have no expectation of what may actually occur when the mass of all that ice is redistributed around the globe.

When you look to the southern sky on one of these autumn nights, look carefully. There may be a sign there....

Update: Pope to give strong words on climate....
