"A King is born!!"



         The Magi, (we three kings), concluded that a very great event was about to happen, a sign of royalty  was seen that somehow made a kings crown. The Magi decide to follow the “star” to find the birthplace of the divine superstar that was about to be born. Don’t ask me to explain astrology. ...or Astronomy. 
         When they observed a conjunction of Jupiter and Venus, as these planets  set in the evening sky that June, they knew they had found the sign. The Magi began their journey and in September after this long journey, they observed  Venus and Jupiter  together  in another rare conjunction, this time in the morning sky.

         The combination of two bright objects in the sky make them appear quite a bit brighter  and this bright star, the conjunction of planets that they knew about, then pointed north, seemingly over the Kingdom of Judea. The MAGI were Magicians, sorcerers and possibly  Druids, but mostly their expertise was astronomy and astrology. These Magi were very knowledgeable about astronomy as proven by some texts that have been found dated to 7 B.C. They were  predicting a king would be born, a king of the Jews more specifically, from the signs.


        Then you know this part of the story where the Magi naturally assume a son had been born to the local king. “
         "A King is born!!! Outrageous!” Herod  stated loudly as the Magi inquired about the sign. According to myth, all babies were then killed and everyone born the next year would also die. You Bastard! 
         Flee to Egypt, the Magi insisted. Get away from the bloodthirsty Romans and the corrupt dittohead Pharisees. Take him somewhere peaceful, teach him the mysteries and get him initiated by a teleste.  
        Forms of Buddhism had reached the homes of the Magi  and  though Egypt was marginalized politically at this time, it was  still a spiritual place and the Mystery Schools were highly regarded forms of education.
          The Magi made this three month journey from out near the Ukraine or something, almost as far as India it's said: so theoretically, Jesus as the divine teen may have made some extensive voyages to that area as speculated by some, by the same route followed by the Magi. 'We three kings of Orient are', thought that perhaps, Jesus was a reincarnated Buddha.
          
Very likely then, Jesus was born in September and I really have no problem with its symbolic celebration  at Christmas and no one else should either. It’s the Christians persistent proselytizing that annoys people, not to mention the death sentence of our soul in  hell,  they like to tell me I'm going to.  They are mostly bearing false witness and jeopardizing their own chances of heavenly rewards. No one is tryng to take Christ out of Chritsmas, ya morons, enjoy each others holidays. Halloween is the start of the holidays for me. My New Year till the traditional New Year is the holiday period for me. Although this year I am trying to edge away from
Saturnalia  and Solstice and Boxing day and Hanukkah and New Years. It’s the holidays, dude. It’s all gravy, merry Christmas.
