    containing statistics of the Great Pyramid we find:

    With the original surrounding courtyards and temples in place, the pyramid was used as a sundial.
    The pyramid was used to indicate solstices and equinoxes.

    Marks Spring Equinox: Due to the angle of the sides of the pyramid vs. its latitude, it casts no shadow at noon during the spring equinox.

    Aligned True North: The Great Pyramid is the most accurately aligned structure in existence and faces true north with only 3/60th of a degree of error. The position of the North Pole moves over time and the pyramid was probably exactly aligned at one time.

    For a thousand years, the slanting rays of the setting sun have played a spectacular shadow and light game with this great Mayan pyramid. During the equinoxes, at the appointed hour, the shadow of the Feathered Serpent, Kukulcan appears on the northern stairway...and vanishes.

    The new moon is supposed to be seen on March 17th this year and since it is the 30th day, it might be possible to see ealier, but not later. If you use March 17th as the date for the equinox, then you would call this the first day of the year. However, if you use March 20th as the first day of the year, then you would NOT call this the first day of they year, because it is still Winter and not Spring. This is why I believe we should not begin the year until April 15th when the next new moon will appear, the first new moon to appear in the Spring and not the Winter.

    Summary:
     How does the sun and moon establish what I call God's Calendar in the Sky?

    1. The year is established by the sun and moon which are both in the sky:

      2. The first visible new moon cresent over Israel on or after the equinox.

    2. Each new month is established by the Moon which is in the sky:

      3. When visible new moon cresent over Israel is sighted by two witnesses or the 30th day otherwise.

    3. The week is established by the sun which is in the sky:

      4. It begins on what we call Sunday and ends on the seventh day of the week which is the Sabbath day. When we see the sixth setting of the sun the Sabbath begins with the seventh day of the week.

    4. The day is established by the setting of the sun which is in the sky:

      5. As the sun sets and retires for the day, one day ends and another day begins.

      The creation of God is breathtaking to behold and we should worship and honor the creator not the creation.
      And who created ALL things? The Messiah?
      And why were ALL things created? For the Messiah.
      Colossians 1:13-23

      And yet, he had the humility to divest his power and come down as a human being and die for our sins. What an astounding and incredible God we serve! Blessed be the name of Yahweh!
