Over the past few weeks, I’ve seen multiple posts and articles regarding the planetary conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn, which is set to be at its closest proximity on December 21, 2020, which is also the winter solstice.
Many Christians are attempting to tie this alignment to something positively prophetic, and some are even calling it the return of the “Star of Bethlehem.”
First, let me start off by saying that the conjunction that is happening is in fact NOT in association with what was known as the star of Bethlehem. This is due to the fact that although Jupiter, which is also called the “king planet” was a part of the star of Bethlehem alignment, Saturn was not. Through mapping the history of planetary alignments, it is believed that it was Venus (also deemed the bright and morning star) that was a part of the conjunction that led the Magi to Christ. The wise men, or “Magi” where the Chaldeans that first settled in ancient Mesopotamia, later called Babylon, and were known for their understanding of astronomy, medicine, and literature.
But the more important thing I would like to address is what perhaps is the meaning of this conjunction happening at the end of a tumultuous year… and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with holiness.
As I stated earlier, Jupiter is known as the “king planet” according to Babylonian astrology, and depending on the planetary conjunctions, Jupiter was often associated with the incoming of a new king (hence, why the Magi knew a king had been born in Judea around 4 BC).
Saturn’s association, however, has to do with something even more unique.
In Roman mythology, Saturn is known as the god of wealth, agriculture, peace and liberation (through war). He was often depicted as the god of the “Golden Age” which was associated with a time of plenty and peace. But Saturn worship goes back further than Rome. In fact, Saturn’s original Babylonian (or ancient Mesopotamian) name was Ninutra; who was worshipped as the god of agriculture and war. Ninutra was also known as “The Mighty Hunter”.
Ladies and gentlemen… Ninutra is none other then, Nimrod!
Now, let’s talk about the winter solstice.
Scientifically, the winter solstice is when the earth’s poles (north and south) are at its furthest tilt away from the sun, hence produces the longest night of the year. In paganism, the winter solstice is represented through the “yuletide” which is the celebration of the rebirth of the “Great Horned Hunter god” in a time of darkness, and is demonstrated through the image of the yule goat. The holiday décor consists of evergreen garland, wreaths, holly berries, mistletoe, candles, pine [trees & cones], gifts, and the burning of the yule log.
When we look at the biblical meaning of the goat, it is depicted as someone who has gone astray, or has rebelled. It also represents sin as the scapegoat. Thus, we get the image of Satan who is also called the “goat head” or as others know as Baphomet.
Putting it together…
In Genesis 1:14 it states, “Then God said, ‘Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons…’”
When read in Hebrew, the word “sign” is אוֹת (owth), which would properly translate into “omen” or “miracle.”
The word “season” is יָעַד (moed), which is properly translated as “appointed times.”
So in other words, God created the sun, moon and stars for omens [signs] and appointed times [seasons].
I would like to add that the planetary conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn are also within the alignment of the constellation Capricorn, whose image is also that of a goat… during the winter solstice (yule goat). Also, it will take place during the crescent moon phase, which is a time of high sorcery symbolizing “rebirth”. You will find that in the image of Baphomet, crescent moons are at his ascending and descending hands.
So what is all of this saying?
If I were to tell you a story of what is aligning in the heavens at the end of a year that literally began the end of everything we considered “normal,” it would go like this…
The heavens are telling us that there is a king that is about to rise, who will bring about a New Age of unity and [false] peace. He will be a great man, one who conquers (as the great hunter, Nimrod), but his image and character will be that of the goat (Satan); born forth in darkness, cult, and deceit.
It is the sign of the rise of the Beast.
Several months ago, I did a two-part audio podcast called; “The Rise of Babylon & The Return of Nimrod.” In this podcast, I go through the history of pagan religion and how it all started with Nimrod, and at the end, the rise of the Beast (antichrist) will also be a depiction of the return of Nimrod worship.

On October 3, 2020, the Lord spoke to me and said, “Tell my children that a season of great testing is coming. Those who remain in Me will endure and come out victorious. But those who are not rooted in Me will lose faith and fall by the wayside.”
Saints, we are entering into a time of persecution, and many are not prepared. We are at the precipice of the end of the [church] age, and the great tribulation. And although the Bride is not appointed to wrath (1 Thessalonians 5:9), it does not mean that we will not see and experience trials and persecution. What has unfolded in 2020 should be proof of this. Yet many Christians are still living under the illusion that we’re NOT at the end of the age, that good times are still ahead, the great awakening (which is a new age term used in the church) is coming, and America will be great.
These are all lies. Trouble is coming…trouble is already here. And for many, it will overtake them as a flood.
We need to make sure in the coming year that we are ground-rooted in the One who is unshakeable (Jesus Christ), because all things are about to be shaken.
As with all things, take this to prayer for confirmation.

You are correct. This is a sign of darkness and foretells of what is to come. It is not the Star of Bethlehem, it is a warning to those of us who understand. There is a certain world leader who was also born on this date, I researched it a few years ago. Above the town where he was born I looked at the night sky on the night of his birth and the constellation of the dragon was above it on December 21st. It was Emmanuel Macron, the leader of France, this happened over 40 plus years ago. Just very strange, but I do not believe in coincidences anymore. Either way the bright star/conjunction that is appearing tonight will usher in something dark, something is being rebirthed. Praying that everyone wakes up and realizes the times we are, it is not going to get better and we shall not have peace, except for peace that is found in Him. God bless!
To Jessica ,reading your comment earlier, pondering re Emmanuel Macron…about year ago or more I remember watching a video with 2 pastors …but I cannot remember their names now..
But what I do remember was them talking re the name Emmanuel-( meaning.). and they thought he could play a big part in end times.
Browsing an endrtime site & what did I see was this video ..it is over an Hr long ..have only watched first 10 mins but very interesting & his ties to the Vatican.. visits with the Pope ,Plus visits to Jerusalem.
Link to the video.

Much happening end of 2020. .
Anne-I read a similar article about him as well. he said he would rule like Jupiter…etc. There are many strange things about this man if you research him and his history. Either way the darkness is rising tonight and this is NOT the Star of Bethlehem.
Wow! What insight to consider. God bless you Mena. Thank you sharing. Jesus is coming soon
The Lord told you on Oct 3 that a great season of testing was coming to the church…those not grounded in HIM will fall by the wayside.
Last night I had a surprising dream. I was at a church gathering with the father of my faith. He was a man of holy wisdom and integrity. As we were interceding, suddenly he got up and said, “I don’t want to do this anymore.” and left the gathering.
Then the gathering was moved to an upper room, but I saw part of the people in another room with the door closed and they were just standing, waiting around to dance. They didn’t want to be a part of intercession/worship. Then suddenly the worship leader and his wife (both were people of integrity and anointed of God) got up and said we don’t want to this anymore and left the intercession/worship gathering and walked through the door. and walked past those waiting to dance, into a house A quiet subdued thought came to mind that sexual immorality might be on the agenda.
Then there were only a few people left in the room to intercede/worship and we weren’t sure what to do or who would lead.
I think the Lord God is warning to be prepared for perplexing times and to not be surprised at those who quit the faith, and to even pray for our leaders with integrity….that they won’t give up.
Wow, that’s a heavy duty warning dream Joan. I believe it because it is confirmed by scriptural warnings of betrayal among us. It also confirms my killer robots dream in which the robots were hunting and killing Christians but the most shocking part was they were owned and operated by a mega church that I used to be a member in the late 1990’s.
Oh man, James! I just listened to Killer Robots podcast again, but this time, without the distraction of the elections in the back of my mind. What a meat pack teaching! Our Christian faith will never be status quo again.
Thanks for the reminder that our forefathers had to run and hide from wicked and evil men. Preparation is a powerful weapon, and it starts in our mind.

Yes, so much better to be prepared for what’s ahead.
I actually feel like this sign in the sky must mean something. What happened in 1226? And the years following? How did the world shift? Probably good things to research. I felt a reset in my spirit. Like freedom. An epiphany. I wouldn’t worry too much about people born on or near that day being a bad thing. It’s almost bordering on astrology vs. astronomy to do that. Astrology is like fortune telling. Zodiac, etc. Astronomy is a study of the sun, stars, moon, and universe in space, with no agenda of witchcraft in it. Yes, lots of sorcery happens around both summer and winter solstices. But it has no authority over us. None. The Blood sacrifice and resurrection power give us all the strength to overcome. I think it’s a season of overcoming. A season of more purging for some, and a season of those who have been purged to help those who are still being tested. But when I go to the LORD, He’s not finished with the slow learners. They will be “beaten with stripes” if they know better. There will be “purgatory on earth.” Every sin will have consequence. But only to refine and cleanse us to make us worthy to be called His bride. . If you’re walking close, reach out to those who aren’t. If they receive you, intercede and love on them. If they refuse you, let them go. We can’t control the choices or mistakes others make. “Purgatory” will get them there. That’s the mercy of God. He won’t let go, but He won’t go easy on us either if we live in rebellion. Remember that cursing or wishing harm, on others, as well as rebellion, are witchcraft. Witchcraft always returns on the sorcerer’s head. He that digs a pit for others… Read more »
What I find most telling in regards to Saturn is the hexagon shaped formation at it’s north pole and the eye shaped formation at it’s southern pole. The hexagon storm pattern moves in a counterclockwise direction. A hexagon is a cube turned on it’s side. What religion has a monument of a giant cube where thousands of people gather and move around it in unison? Guess what direction their movement is. Counterclockwise. The cube appears everywhere in various occult practices and beliefs as well as various faiths. What do you get when you open up a cube? A cross. We all know what the all seeing eye is. Without a doubt there is some connection between Saturn and the demonic forces.
Signs in the heavens don’t arise out of events astronomers can predict. For the ancients, the movement of planets was predictable, but the appearance of comets, for example, was not. A great sign in the sun occurred in Fatima, Portugal in October, 1917, when the sun changed colors and danced in the sky. Over 50,000 people witnessed it.
We have no evidence that the Star of Bethlehem was an astronomical event observable across the globe. It actually could have been no more than a vision seen by the Magi. The Magi would have been star-gazers, an ancient practice older than astrology where stars were considered angels or the home of angels and upon occasion gave people revelations and visions. This is still alluded to in the bible in Rev 1:20.
Genesis 1:14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so.
We have to be careful to read exactly what God said in the scriptures and He tells us in Genesis that he placed predictable pieces in our sky for light and for signs. I believe He spelled out the entire story of our “age” in our night sky. It may not seem remarkable but it is there if we want to search it out.
The view from classical mythology:
Saturn is Cronos, who envied and attempted to destroy his father, then subsequently devoured his own children. This is Satan. Meanwhile Jupiter is “…is usually thought to have originated as an aerial god” or Prince of the Power of the Air (Lucifer). He was also considered ruler of the other “gods” or, in demonic terms, of the other demons who found a place in the classical idolatry of Rome and Greece.
From E.W. Bullinger, a respected Protestant professor who specialized in writing and teaching about “The Witness of the Stars”:
Saturn and Jupiter when aligned always predict either a crisis or a favorable event in the affairs of Israel. Perhaps the rise of the AC (a crisis) would be seen by them as the arrival of the Messiah (favorable). He also characterized Capricorn (goat) as the Atonement slain for the Redeemed (Jesus), but he interpreted this as meaning our real, true Christ and Messiah and not a false one. I’m not sure I agree with him as the Bible is clear about the Atonement being always the Lamb of God, also Matthew specifically refers to our Lord’s final judgement as a separation of the sheep and the goats – the sheep (good) will be separated from the goats (bad), and the goats will be rejected and damned.
I agree with Mena Grebin, author of this post. This alignment appears to portend chaos and death.
You are right it isn’t the star of Bethlehem….. that alignment was several years back. I’ll look up my notes. I took notes because I thought it was so neat that the we were seeing what the wisemen saw…
I have moved since but am anxious to dig out my notes.
this is right on, another confirmation from the Lord. in the past month, I have received four dreams — one is from my wife, the other three are from fellow sisters in different countries– that all spoke about a major season shift is coming. of course, it is spiritual season, because God works in seasons not by days, month or years in the most cases. two of them gave details about the ministry I am serving at now, some of appointed martyred Christians are heading their way of martyrdom, and those who are not are going to the wilderness to hide. one dream is very interesting, depicting a scene of film casting. a group of actors (Christians) are casting a film or show, in the dream, the current casting is finished and they are assigned to another new show or film. they are supposed to change their outfit, clothes, or costumes, because it is a totally different film or show and of course you put on different outfit. however, most of actors (Christians in the dream) didn’t change at all and start their new casting with the old outfit. when it is asked why not change costumes? they simply answer: they don’t have enough time. the bible tells us: we put up a show in front of the world and angels, and the old film is over and the new is starting, meaning that the season change is at stake, different clothes could mean that we take different ministry, work, identity, function and role in the new season, unfortunately, most are not ready yet.
sorry I forget to tell the last dream which is even more explicit. in the dream: there is a big wedding event and all the audience are brides dressed in grown, the center stage is bigger than the usual wedding. our ministry leader is giving a speech at the center of the stage. she finishes her speech and is about to go down, and there is a voice speaking: the antichrist is about to come up to the stage.
That sounds like the parable of the wise and foolish virgins, Oliver. A very cool dream. To think of reaching our destiny in Christ, we have to be progressing. As our clothes become unsuitable, due to wear and tear, ill fit, being outdated, or simply inappropriate for the occasion, they need to be retired and replaced, and we need to make the adjustment. You wouldn’t dress like a pauper to go visit the prince. But I think the LORD is asking us to don spiritual clothing that is worthy of His Majesty. By so doing, he will provide the proper outer attire that will get us the next role in our casting call. Who wants to be best supporting actress when He is asking us to try our for the leading role? . That means we need to don spiritual fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, goodness, and faithfulness, and we will have the star quality that gets us to our next assignment.
This article by Michael Snyder seems to tie in with what Mena is saying in this Post re Nimrod etc .Winter Solstice.. the symbols &
traditions that man has followed. Origin of Dec 25th. Explains a lot.
Scrolling down thru the article is much evidence re pagan gods associated with & origin thru Rome.
http://unexplainedmysteriesoftheworld.com/archives/the-mystery-of-the-pagan-origin-of-christmas-jesus-was-not-born-on-december-25th-but-a-whole-bunch-of-pagan-gods-were
Yeshua being Hebrew.. as many other scholars & Bereans of the scriptures have read & researched prayed for true revelation of the Truth thru the scriptures: the most likely time that Yeshua – Jesus Christ was born was most probably associated with during Feast of Tabernacles -prophetic during the fall. – an appointed Moedim… appointed time=season.. The Fathers Appointed time.
verses in Zechariah 14 point to Feast of Tabernacles also.
Anne- Jonathan Cann has a video on YouTube called” Was Jesus Born at Christmas?”. It makes an excellent argument that He was born in the Spring.
