I'm leaving links to the assassination of Lincoln below, please read carefully:- https://acws.co.uk/archives-biography-wilkes_booth https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/abraham-lincoln-team-of-rivals-180954850/ By reading both please note that John Wilkes Booth and fellow conspirators had a meeting to plan how to kidnap President Lincoln, this meeting was on 15th March 1865, no doubt he found the symbolism fitted his black humour being the IDES OF MARCH. He had planned to kidnap President Lincoln in Washington DC on 17th March 1865, but the attempt didn't happen, as Lincoln changed his plans. April 14th 1865 was Good Friday, so i feel that John Wilkes Booth thought the symbolism with assassination was auspicious, but he had only found out earlier in the day that Lincoln would be attending Fords Theatre! Finally this day wasn't aligned to a day marker, but the conspirators had planned simultaneous assassinations of Lincoln, Secretary of State, William Henry Steward and Vice President Andrew Johnson, all at the mysterious time of 10:15pm, perhaps not so mysterious!

Edwin Booth never recovered from his brothers action , John Wilkes booth was also a shakespearean actor and was reported to have said "Sic Semper Tyrannis" when he shot President Lincoln, links below:- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_Booth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sic_semper_tyrannis

Edwin Booth was broken by his brothers actions. John Wilkes Booth loved playing Brutus on stage so loved symbolism, it is likely he mixed up the symbolism of Jesus Christ and the Assassination of Julius Caesar when he murdered President Lincoln, on Good Friday. A letter was posted in the New York Times, which is below, the Civil War was family splitting putting brother against brother:-.

By approx. 1800, Alnilam wasn't rising with the Sun in Philadelphia on 4th July by one degree margin it was on the move due to axial precession, so we find it in Lexington, Kentucky as this is a latitude alignment that was also showing up by this time in Washington DC. A very interesting alignment and could be intentional for day picking the event, very like what happened in ancient times!

John Wilkes Booth used to like being an actor in the play by William Shakespeare called The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, as the civil war broke out he later joined a group called the Knights of the Golden Circle, which may have aligned their deeds to the stars like ancient beliefs. The Golden Circle were established on 4th July 1854 in Lexington, Kentucky, i will show star alignments tomorrow. https://knightsofthegoldencircle.webs.com/

Hi Guy, Perhaps the mystery schools have never gone away and align their deeds in the sky? Are we to play the modern game or have a game with the play? Are the mystery schools like the Eleusinian mysteries and Isis cults still operating? To set the scene to an historical event, i need to explain the astronomical alignment with their stars, being Sirius and the centre star of the Belt of Orion, called Alnilam. The rules are simple enough, the Sun moves one degree approx. a day along Eastern horizon with equates to 4 minutes of time, which is why i use one degree margins. There are 3 day starts and four directions therefore with each star it could be possible that 12 times in a year this is possible, but we are looking at two stars being Sirius and Alnilam which can double up on certain days at location, this can be both stars setting with the Sun with ancient Greek day marker, or it may be Alnilam on Nadir or IC and Sirius setting at Sunrise, being ancient Roman and Egyptian day marker, We can work this out that at any location, this will happen approx. 22 times a year, the three day starts are ancient Greek day start, being the sunset previous to date, ancient Egyptian day start, being sunrise, and modern midnight after 1582 and start of Gregorian Calendar, the Directions are due North, South, East and West. I thought i would start with President Lincoln, obviously what i write could be co-incidence, however as interesting as Assassin's Creed to some people. The video below i find spine tingling, because Sam Seymour was the last man alive to witness a sad auspicious event in history on par with the assassination of Julius Caesar. The program was called "I have a Secret", and must have been on tv in 1960''s as he was 94 at the time! I

In ancient records we often find myths, legends and exaggerations, but some events we can prove with astronomy programmes, a quote and link below:- "The Battle of the Eclipse[1] or Battle of Halys[2] was fought between the Medes and the Lydians in the early 6th century BC. The result was a draw which led to both parties negotiating a peace treaty and ending a six-year war. According to Herodotus, the appearance of a solar eclipse at the time of battle was interpreted as an omen, and interrupted the battle. Herodotus writes that in the sixth year of the war, the Lydians under King Alyattes and the Medes under Cyaxares were engaged in an indecisive battle when suddenly day turned into night, leading to both parties halting the fighting and negotiating a peace agreement. Herodotus also mentions that the loss of daylight had been predicted by Thales of Miletus. He does not, however, mention the location of the battle.." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Eclipse This happened on 28th May 0585 BC by using a Proleptic Julian Calendar, after researching the location, i can show this on my archaeoastronomy programme , just before eclipse below:- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proleptic_Julian_calendar

Sometimes earlier religions muscle into new ones, and so it seems regarding Christ's birth, we don't know the birthday, however we can see an Egyptian feel to the date of 6th January in Bethlehem during that era Axial Precession means we don't have to show an exact year, as the alignment in Bethlehem would remain the same during the period. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_precession The Jews did and still does use previous sunset as the start of the day, so we would be looking at Bethlehem at sunset on 5th January at around 0004 BC. As the Sun set, the brightest star in the sky was rising, being Sirius. I could have followed this alignment from Persia, being an Archaeoastronomer. The Three King's would have had to have date of birth before they set out, though! The alignment can be seen below on link:- https://imgur.com/tx7HuAP

The other documented birth of Christ is also dubious on 6th January, remembered as Three King's Day or Epiphany, the Pilgrim Egeria noted in 381-4 that the nativity was celebrated in Bethlehem on this date, the early church celebrated the Birth, First Miracle and Baptism on Epiphany, as shown below:- https://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/christianity/holydays/epiphany.shtml https://nationaltoday.com/three-kings-day/ Egeria information below:- http://ldysinger.stjohnsem.edu/@texts/0381_egeria/00a_start.htm I will show soon some archaeoastronomy regarding 6th January in Bethlehem soon.

The Christain religion was very like other religions, that it borrowed events from earlier ones. When Julius Caesar, Sosigenes and Cleopatra started the Julian Calendar on 1st January 0045 BC, the Winter Solstice was falling on 25th December, but when the Gregorian Calendar was produced in Rome in 1584, they didn't rectify the whole calendar, but only rectified back to 325 AD and the First Council of Nicaea, which is why the Winter Solstice falls on 21 December today:- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea It was a custon for Gods to be born on the Winter Solstice as Edward Carpenter explains, however i wouldn't agree totally, an example would be Osiris that the myth say's was born in the last five days of the Egyptian Calendar, however New Year was in the Summer. https://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/pcc/pcc03.htm

There is a fascinating documentary below about the Fate of Cleopatra's sister Arsinoe :-

Hi Caldrail, More on the children of Cleopatra below:- https://www.knowledgesnacks.com/articles/cleopatras-children/ The date of Cleopatra's suicide, is disputed some think 10th August, others think 12th August 0030 BC. If it was 12th August 0030 BC. it looks likely she planned it to show in the heavens, to show her the way to Osiris being the Constellation of Orion, the day was marked by ancient Greek day marker at sunset on 11th at location, where the Nadir, Due North points to Alnilam, centre star of the Belt of Orion.

Hi Guy, I apologize to moderators having forgotten that i had joined in 2008, but not continued, i will now continue as Monk. The old thread had a lot of information which i have included, and due to your PM, i have included the assassination of Julius Caeser there, where to start my name was Sosigenes, hope you enjoy the further information.

I must apologize to moderators, for forgetting that i did join this forum in 2008 under the avatar Sosigenes, i will only use Monk in future, however there are diagrams that i need to add. I did start a wordpress on this some time ago that does show diagrams to i will just show links, the name of the journal was just a spoof as it was called M.A.G.I.C. Below is the link to the start to the Julian Calendar:- https://wintertriangle.wordpress.com/the-paran-paranatellona-and-sun-calanders/ More below regarding the Assasination of Julius Caeser:- There is a thing called electional astrology, that you choose the day to go to war etc, and wait for favourable stars at location, and a good astronomer can spot when this happens regarding the beliefs in ancient times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electional_astrology please remember that i'm not saying astrology works, but those that believed in astrology in ancient times used to wait for auspicious day's before changing history, i follow the oldest of all astrological practices called Paranatellona or parans for short, link below:- https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10705808 The day starts are used, and in ancient times this would be either Roman Sunrise at location or ancient Greek day marker, being previous sunset. There are four other directions to ponder, being Due East, being the eastern horizon, Due West being the western horizon, Due South being the culminating angle, and Due North being the Nadir, so if the Sun was setting within one degree of the star Sirius culminating, an astrologer would pick that day for action. In fact the permutations are that this can happen eight day's in 365 day's in any one location in ancient times. The Romans thought of Sirius as "The door keeper of Hell, explained below as The Dog Day's of Summer." https://www.stephenmorrisauthor.com/dog-days-summer/ Another Culture, the ancient Egyptians thought of Sirius as the Isis Star. On 15th March 0044 BC an event happened in Rome that appears to have been marked in the heavens by human hand, being the Assassination of Julius Caesar, that was marked in the sky by ancient Greek style being previous sunset to date being 14th March, this could mean that the reason Caesar was killed was because of a Greek person, Cleopatra came from the Greek Ptolemaic Dynasty, so not an Egyptian Pharaoh, but she was fiercely patriotic and thought of herself as Isis on earth symbolized by Sirius. The Senate hated Cleopatra who had Caesar's son Caesarion, they thought that Caesar was influenced by her, and thought he was going to declare himself a god, banish the Senate become an emperor and have Caesarion follow him onto the throne. The message in the sky over Rome for 15 March 0044 BC was set at ancient Greek daymarker being sunset on 14 March as Sirius was culminating "Nothing personal, just business, you were a great leader but had to be assassinated because of your association with Cleopatra. I have no idea who the astrologer was who chose the day for his senate masters, but what he wrote will stay in the heavens for that era, some would believe it become part of the Akashic Records, Ha Ha! Hopefully i'll be able to show an image of this below:-

Hi every one, i'm a newbie! I'm 65, and have interests in archaeoastronomy which covers the Roman period however to learn the myths and legents of the stars i attended astrology classes, however i don't believe in astrology. The ancients used to use astrology all the time. There is a thing called electional astrology, that you choose the day to go to war etc, and wait for favourable stars at location, and a good astronomer can spot when this happens regarding the beliefs in ancient times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electional_astrology I will show the interesting results in time, i'm disabled, using a wheel chair because of a broken spine, but i'm a happy soul having an active social life, and when i have time i write on forums! Best wishes to all members.
