The Scales of Justice tonight until 2021 ..*You have been found wanting*

July 6, 2014, the moon shines to the east of the star Spica and planet Mars, and is heading toward the planet Saturn. It’ll be close to Saturn on July 7. Right now, Saturn is between two stars that represented a celestial gateway to the early stargazers, the stars Zubenelgenubi and Zubeneschamali in the constellation Libra. These two Libra stars were seen as a gateway on the sky’s dome because planets sometimes pass between them. And, at certain times in the moon’s 18.6-year cycle, the moon passes in between Libra’s two brightest stars on a monthly basis.

And guess what? We’re in that part of the moon’s cycle now. Every month until the year 2021, the moon will travel between Zubenelgenubi and Zubeneschamali.

In fact, if you watch each month, you’ll see the moon in its monthly sweep farther and farther north of Zubenelgenubi for the next several years.

Daniel 5:26
mene, mene, tekel, parsin

“Here is what these words mean:

Mene: God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end.
Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.
Peres: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”


"In Libra we see two scales, one higher and one lower. These scales represent the whole theme of redemption, or purchase, and describe a commercial transaction... It is a picture of a man weighed in the scales and found wanting; man, ruined, condemned; man, with his life added up and found wholly in vanity and wholly wanting and insufficient to meet the requirements of God..."
