In my last article, Signs Point the Way, I mentioned the eclipses that were included in the Blood Red Moon Tetrad of 2014-2015. The Blood Red Moon tetrad of 2014-2015 contained two solar eclipses, one on March 20, 2015 and another on September 13, 2015. And we did indeed see world-wide trouble, both on the political front and on the economic front as well. European banks were struggling and the Middle East was once again becoming a hot bed of contention. Headlines were blaring such titles as Global Economic Recession 2015: Global Events Pointing to Crisis Ahead. But, the average American person paid little attention to these events. After all, few even attend Church on a regular basis, let alone, pay attention to signs in the heavens! But, God was not done sending His warning with eclipses. August 21, 2017 He sent what is now known as the Great American Solar Eclipse, it was the first total solar eclipse that was visible in the U.S.A. and nowhere else. It was also the only total eclipse seen only in the USA since it’s founding in 1776.

What is even more interesting about this eclipse is that it begins over Salem Oregon and travels through six more Salem’s on it’s trajectory across the United States. They are: Salem, Oregon; Salem, Idaho; Salem, WY; Salem, NE; Salem, MO; Salem, KY; and Salem, SC. Not only are there seven cities named Salem in the path of the Great American Eclipse; but when it begins in Salem, Oregon, the sun sets in Jerusalem at the exact same time. Do you remember the Biblical story of Abraham paying tithes to Melchizedek, the king of Salem? Salem is short for Jerusalem and Melchizedek is called King of Salem. Does this eclipse indicate that the “King of Jerusalem” is soon to come? While this eclipse traveled from the Northwest to the Southeast, in just 7 years another eclipse will cross the US from Northeast to Southwest which is very unusual. Some have wondered about the crossing point being right over the famous Madrid fault line in the Mississippi Valley. Sort of an x marks the spot. But, perhaps it’s not an “x’. ‘The last letter in the Hebrew alphabet is “tav” and it means “truth” and has the meaning in Hebrew that was given to its symbol as: “mark, sign,covenant.” The original ancient letter looks like this:’ (comment taken from Ready and Watching blog). I also find it interesting that this sign happened in August of 2017, since so many other signs also happened right around that time: the completion of the sign of the heavenly woman, Virgo (Sep. 23, 2017), The Great American Eclipse (August 21, 2017), and President Trump recognizes Jerusalem as Israel’s Capital and moves the American Embassy to Jerusalem (Dec. 6, 2017). Israel also recognized this Presidential Proclamation as a signal to rebuild the Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount.

Also, another fact is that this eclipse appears to split the United Stats in two and some have called it th Great Divide – is this signaling the move for secession that has struck the United States? In the following video, Dr. Steve Turley talks about this.

As I listened to this video, I was reminded of the vision George Washington had at Valley Forge and of his heavenly visitor, the angel named Union. The angel’s last words were –

“Son of the Republic, what you have seen is thus interpreted: Three great perils (the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and one last war) will come upon the Republic. The most fearful for her is the third. But the whole world united shall not prevail against her. Let every child of the Republic learn to live for his God, his land and Union.”

Could this division lead to such an event as the third war?

I also notice that the second eclipse that will cross the United States in the opposite direction will occur in exactly seven years. This also coincides with the seven years it takes Jupiter to reach the Horns of Taurus after leaving the womb of Virgo, which I will write about in my next article. Could these be signals that he famous sever years of Great Tribulation spoken about by Daniel, Jesus, and Revelation is about to begin? Well, I will tell you my thoughts on this in my next article. Until then, prepare your hearts and draw near to God, our only Salvation.
