Easy Peasy ...

GOD is (still) in control.

HE made the planets and set them in motion.

We just had a carnival ride on one of His attractions.

Thanx, Dad.

The darkness represented the sickening media assault on our President this summer. That darkness passed shining a new hope on this fall’s antics and shenanigans in Washington, DC (soon to be named something non-offensive in light of the left’s “all things slavery” trigger).

Don't know. Had a personal family crisis when it hit my region. Things are back to normal now. Catastrophe was averted.

It’s to remind me I have bad luck. Where I live it just happened that the moon blocked my view.

It is just an eclipse. No sacred meanings.

The moon got between us and the sun.

There is no meaning with an eclipse. It’s just another astral event.

Like the GOP, the moon wins, about once every 20 years?

Please. It was mathematically predicted just as Columbus knew of the coming eclipse when he was in Jamaica because he read the almanacs of those days.

Obviously, it means you are really searching for a stretch. Go build a model of the USS Constitution complete with all the rigging and sails, then get back to us.

I’m just flaky enough to believe that there MAY sometimes be synchronicity between human and celestial events; but what it might mean at any time I would never venture to guess. It seems to be something you could only figure upon in retrospect.

Well, to me it means a time to recognize that nobody is perched on the steps the Jefferson Memorial waiting to cut somebody else's heart out if their cultural state-establishment's deity doesn't reveal they're appeased by making the Sun go dark.

 

Jefferson Memorial:

I

HAVE SWORN UPON THE ALTAR OF GOD ETERNAL

 HOSTILITY TO EVERY FORM OF TYRANNY OVER THE MIND OF MAN
--

Thomas Jefferson

 

NOT, the Jefferson Memorial:

 "Por la raza todo, fuera de la raza nada"

Yes.....it symbolizes that control of the sun is not possible (for man)...which controls our weather.

In my opinion, it is Yahuah’s (God’s) mark of condemnation on the United States. Destruction will now certainly follow.
_
I examine near term (fewer than 45 days from today) prophecy in detail at “The Rescue of the Bride” http://october-5-2017.com
_
The gathering of believers who comprise The Great Multitude in White Robes (Revelation 7:9ff) will take place between September 5, 2017 and October 5, 2017. September 5, 2017 is the start of The Great Tribulation. October 5, 2017 is Sukkot, also known as the Festival of Tabernacles, also known as the Festival of Ingathering.
_
The Great Multitude in White Robes come out of The Great Tribulation (Revelation 7:14), so their gathering cannot occur before the start of The Great Tribulation (September 5, 2017).
_
The Great Multitude in White Robes will be in the throne room in heaven no later than the Festival of Ingathering on October 5, 2017. Look at what they are holding in their hands - palm branches! Palm branches are required for the Festival of Ingathering (Leviticus 23:40).
_
The Great Sign of the Woman appears on September 23, 2017 exactly at sunset in Jerusalem - exactly at the end of Rosh Ha Shanah, exactly at the time of the blowing of “the last trump.” [The two (2) day observance will start one day late this year.] This may be the “rescue/rapture” date. We see the first evidence that the “rescue/rapture” has occurred when “The Great Multitude in White Robes” [Revelation 7:9ff] appears in the throne room of Yahuah (God) twelve (12) days later just after the opening of the Sixth Seal on October 5, 2017. These events allow us to unlock the timeline of the Book of Revelation.

Call the semiotics guy from “The Da Vinci Code” to verify but I think it means:

The Moon fully or partially blocked (”occults”) the Sun.

It was a one day reprieve. Now back to antifa protests.
