Abraham and astrology

Or "they went both of them together"

 

 

 

 

כה אמר יהוה - אֶל-דֶּרֶךְ הַגּוֹיִם אַל-תִּלְמָדוּ, וּמֵאֹתוֹת הַשָּׁמַיִם, אַל-תֵּחָתּוּ כִּי-יֵחַתּוּ הַגּוֹיִם מֵהֵמָּה:

Thus said the LORD: learn not the way of the nations,

And be not dismayed at the signs of heaven,

For the nations are dismayed at them:

Jeremiah 10: 2:

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.

 

We have already cleared the majority of dates of a life of forefather Abraham in the article "Abraham’s two births".

These are dates of way Abraham to top 52 → 58 → 75 → 85 → 99.

Awakening of a point in heart 52г in 2000 when he was disappointed in idols, and searches of a source of evil of 6 years,

The first step of knowledge of secret wisdom 58,

The raising on steps up to a level of letter Pey  פfor 17 years and the sanction to an input in the Promised Land in 75 years old,

rise up to a level of a fencing of a palace Reigning 10 more years and the conclusion with Tsar ״The Fire Union״ in 85 years old,

The unlocking of all of 50 gate of understanding for 14 years,

And, at last, grand welcome with Tsar of Tsars in 99 years old.

 

The wished to be corrected Kingdom of the Lord, was born in 2000. 

In fact, his Kingdom refers to as a name BON 52 ב״ן.  

 

So, when there was 85 years old to him, he was honored ״the fire (אש) union (ברית)” with the Creator as it is described in Genesis 15. The Torah begins with word at the beginning בראשית. This first word contains the information for the sake of what the Creator has created our universe, - for the sake of "the fire (אש) union (ברית)” with Abraham as it is ciphered: 

 ברית אשבראשית.

 

Number 85 enters the name letters of Hebrew as פ״ה, 80 ~ פ, 5 ~ ה, the word פה means

״a mouth ״, the lips of Abraham have opened to tell to people of the Earth, that the

Creator has created our universe by thirty two ways 10 + 22 = 32.

These are some fragments from his Book of Creation ¹:

 

"Part 1

 

Precept 2

Ten spheres of the concealment, twenty two basic letters: three parent, seven double and twelve simple:"

 

"Part 2

 

Precept 3

Twenty two basic letters, set as a seal in a voice, cut down in the spirit, established in the mouth in five places:

In a throat אהח״ע,

In a palate גיכ״ק,

In a tongue דטלנ״ת,

In a teeth זסשר״ץ,

In lips בומ״ף."

 

"Part 3

 

Precept 1

Three mothers אמ״ש, the basis of them is a bowl of merits and a bowl of fault.

Arrow of weights - the weights law between them.

 

Precept 4

Three mothers אמ״ש, in the world - air אויר, water מים, fire אש.

Heavens שמים are created from fire, the ground ארץ is created from water, air is created from spirit א. - Decides between them."

 

"Part 4

 

Precept 1

Seven double letters כפר״ת בג״ד, behaving doubly:  בּ ב, גּ ג, דּ ד, כּ כ, פּ פ, ר רּ, ת תּ.

A structure soft and firm, strong and weak

 

Precept 6

Seven double letters כפר״ת בג״ד, He has cut out, has cut down, has combined, has weighed, has

Replaced, and has formed with them

Seven planets in the world, seven days in one year, seven Gate in soul of the man and the woman.

 

Precept 7

Seven planets in the world: Saturn shabbty שבתאי, Jove tsedek צדק, Mars maadim מאדים,

The sun hama חמה, Venus noga נוגה, Mercury cohav כוכב, Moon levana לבנה.

Seven gate in soul of the man and the woman: two eyes, two ears, two nostrils and a mouth."

 

"Part 5

 

Precept 4

Twelve constellations in the world:

Aries ה, Taurus ו, Twins ז,

Cancer ח, Lion ט, Virgo י,

Libra ל, Scorpion נ, Sagittarius ס,

Capricorn ע, Water-carrier צ, Fishes "

 

 

- Abraham emphasizes, that there is a direct communication of each of 22 letters of sacred language and the major elements of our universe,

There are

Four primary elements

Air א, Water מ, Fire ש, Earth

(Earth, formed by אמ״ש) and

Seven planets in the world 

Saturn shabbtay שבתאי, Jove tsedek צדק, Mars maadim מאדים, Sun khamah חמה,

Venus nogah נוגה, Mercury kokhav כוכב, Moon levanah לבנה and

Twelve constellations

 

Abraham was able to use this apparatus of astrology in perfection.

His comprehension of the Creator came after comprehension this apparatus of astrology.

We should realize that the terrestrial science, the science of astrology was the necessary stage of his mental development for entrance in the inner world.

Planets predicted the bad destiny to him but who knows how is it possible to change it?!

Then the Creator sent the angel to shame him for worship idols.

 

Some time passed, and Abraham counted the number of those major elements of our universe which determine a course of a life on the ground, and found out, that number of these forces 22.

Seven from them behaved from time to time as people which drunk wine and lost the firm gait, in the observer's of heavens eyes, - those are 7 planets.

 

Therefore Abraham enters 22 basic letters.

However the Creator formed the three times steady design, 22 + 5 = 27 = 3*3*3,

So there are necessary 5 more letters for each of 5 ways of a pronunciation of sounds.

(Part 2, Precept 3)

In fact the Creator has created His worlds in perfection.

 

The number 10 and the letter of wisdom Yud י, rule over all three order of numbers and letters.

The Creator has created our universe by thirty two ways 10 + 22 = 32: 

 

N*10 = 1* N -- The variable N receives a value of 1 through 9

Abraham and his descendants developed the science of reception, the wisdom of reception, by rejection from Astrology to go away off dictatorship of planets,

and to be similar to the Creator on property of Love, He loves His creations and We oblige love each other to give Him a pleasure.

 

3.

 

The terrestrial science astrology was not similar to other terrestrial sciences as it studied objects, that outside of the Earth, above it. Astrologists have found out, that there are in these objects of forces of compulsion which operate on the ground, on each blade and on the person.

Stars, planets, comets, eclipses …

 

A star in a Hebrew refers to cohav: כוכב. And a planet is a going star לכת כוכב. The sense of the name cohav is simple: the Creator יהוה has gematria 26 (or in record by letters כ״ו), He has created this world by 22 letters, number 22 in record by letters כ״ב. We have כ״ב + כ״ו = כוכב. I.e. stars testify that He had created the world exactly so it has taken place.

And gematria of the word star כוכב is equal 48 = 26 + 22, that enters as מ״ח, 40 ~ מ and 8 ~ ח, forming a word brain מח. Stars are a brain of the Universe!

 

There are 12 constellations which do not rising highly above horizon, dividing the circle of firmament on 12 equal parts which are described in book ״Book of Creations ״, section 5, written by Abraham. Each of constellations ascends on 2h in day in any set place of the Earth, meaning the rotation of the Earth about its axis for 24ч.

 

Astrologists make a horoscope for a newborn depending on an arrangement of seven planets from each other on such background.

 

Astrology, asater אֲסַתֵּר, - I (Creator) shall disappear from you, I leave you secrets about four primary elements

Earth, Air, Water and Fire

Which form four triads in constellations of the Zodiac. 4*3 = 12.

Earth is Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn.

Air is Twins, Libra, Water - carrier.

Water is Cancer, Scorpion, and Fishes.

Fire is a Lion, Sagittarius, and Aries.

Moreover, there are three tetragons, connected with seasons of year. 3*4 = 12.

Cardinal constellations stand at the beginning of each season.

Fixed constellations stand at the middle of each season.

Variable constellations stand at the end of each season.

The beginning of the first season is a day a spring equinox. As it is told in Torah: this month for you is the head of the months, the first it for you among months of year: - Exodus 12: 2:

This month is Nisan.

 

Antiquity’ astrologists considered, that slowest of planets Saturn keeps secret knowledge,

And transfers it to Jove when they ״approach ״in Heavens, and then the Jove lowers the new information on a chain of planets.

 

Combinations of Saturn and the Jove occur once approximately for 19.8y. - Updating of the information wanders on a zodiac circle through the cardinal, fixed and variable signs of three tetragons. Updating passes each of triads for 59.44y in each sign on the given triad clockwise, then it passes to the following triad clockwise, after end of detour of the fourth triad, it occurs for 237.77y, and for this time it collected 2.22 years of advancing be relative 240y. Then this movement moves in following tetragon.

 

It appears that for 720 y the share of a combination in size exactly one third from 20y collects, and for 2160 y the cycle is formed with addition of one combination which named the Prophetical epoch, but the following epoch begins concerning previous one with displacement on one sign on the Zodiac clockwise.

 

Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, king David and Prophets lived in time of the Aries Epoch.

It began when Noah, the righteous person, was in the age of 365 years old,

prior to the beginning of a flood. It ended in 180 B.C., before revolt of Jews against the Greek sovereignty under leadership of Maccabeus.Then the Fishes’ Epoch began. The Fishes’ Epoch ended in a new year's eve for January 1 1981y and came the Water-carrier Epoch...

 

4.

 

There is no precept of an interdiction on employment by astrology among 613 precepts of Torah. The astrology is mentioned in Torah as a hint in dialogue between the Creator and Abraham, in reply to his complaint that has not given the descendant. ״And He said unto him: 'I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldea’s, to give thee this land to inherit it.': - Genesis  15 : 7:

- That is, 'I have deduced you from under influence of planets, therefore do not rely that they have told to you.'

The word Ur means fire אור in Hebrew, hints at word urta אורתא that means the beginning of night (Aramaic).

The word Chaldea casdi כשׂדי is meant by the astrologist, as if כ he Omnipotent shaddy שׁדי.

 

The astrology has two names in Hebrew: Division of Heavens> שמים הבירת, Istagninuth.  

The last one איצטגנינוּת is founded on two verbs: 

to keep separate [הסתיג [סוג, and to discharge, attempt [הסיג [נסג. 

The Creator "keeps separate" הסתיג from people and those have begun construction of  

the Babel tower to discharge the Supreme Force, to deprive with its authority,  

such there was a desire for the sake of them.  

Gematria of a word his Name שמו is 346; Gematria of a word desire רצון is the same 346.

And, we see, that there are two ways of use of this desire, or for the sake of pleasures to the Creator, or for the sake of them.

 

One can make a pleasure to the Creator only by working in the Torah and precepts, as it known.

The Talmud testifies a struggle of the concept, that Israel is elected by the Creator as his people, against the concept of pagan fatality, that a pier, anything is possible to change in own destiny, in number of places.

 

Wise men argued on, how to concern to astrology, we would see the treatise ״Shabbat״ 156, 1, 2:

״It was spoken, rabbi Khanina, it's happened, speaks: planets give wisdom, planets give riches, and there are planets for Israel.״

 

Probably, rabbi Khanina means here people of Israel which did not direct exactly to the Creator אל ישר.

״Rabbi Johanan said: there are no planets for Israel as it told:

'Thus said the LORD:

Learn not the way of the nations, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the nations are dismayed at them.'

- Jeremiah 10: 2:

Peoples should be frightened them, they will be frightened, but not Israel. ״

 

״Rav Yehuda said, that  Rav has told, whence (is it possible to learn), that are not planets for Israel? - It is told:

'And He brought him forth abroad.' -  Genesis 15: 5: Abraham has told to the Creator, to the Lord of the universe, 'one born in my house is to be mine heir.' - Genesis 15: 3: The Lord told to him, no, 'but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.' - Genesis 15: 4: He said to the Lord of the universe, 'I have looked in my astrological card, and have seen, that will be no a son at me'.

He answered him: 'leave from the astrology (outside)'.

In fact, there are no planets for Israel! What is your knowledge?!

Because does Jove stand from the West? - I shall take it and shall put it from the east!

Also will be, as written:

‘Who has woken the Jove from the east, having called it in satellites?’ - Isaiah 41: 2:"

 

Last story testifies that among great wise men were known astrology at a level of a trade; Abraham was not lonely in this sense.

(The Jove possesses authority above children in cards of their births.)

 

״From rabbi Akiva also (follows, that) Israel is not subject to influence of planets.

Rabbi Akiva had a daughter. Astrologists have told to him, that ,

when she will enter under the canopy of marriage חופה, the snake will bite her that day, and she will die.

That prediction disturbed the rabbi very much. He took a brooch that day, stuck it into a wall, it was happened (so, that the edge) hit it in the eye of the snake. For the morning when he has taken it (a brooch), the snake appeared behind of it being attached it.

 

The father said to the daughter, what did you make? She said to him, there a beggar has come to a gate in the evening, everyone has been borrowed with his meal, and there was nobody who would hear. I have risen, have taken a portion (of meal) which have submitted to me, and have given him. He said to her, you have executed a precept. In addition, rabbi Akiva said, ׳the virtue rescues from death׳: : - Parables 10: 2:

And not only from death unusual, but from death on itself.״

 

- Stars have prompted rabbi Akiva, it was necessary to undertake something in that day.

 

Book Zohar names astrology by the external unions. Baal Asulam has divided the text of this book into small clauses, and has broken clauses into items, has transferred them to a Hebrew from Aramaic and has accompanied their comments inside items.

The attitude of authors to astrology were expressed in clause under the name 7״ firmaments and 7 stars²:״.

It will be that the person needs to learn not astrology, but Wisdom of reception named the Kabbalah. I allocate some of his Comment with italics.

 

From item 14

״These 7 highest spheres create opposite to themselves seven planets:

These are Moon לבנה, Mercury כוכב, Venus נוגה, Sun חמה, Mars מאדים, Jove צדק, Saturn שבתאי.

About them it is written:

Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee (guilty Israel) from the things that shall come upon thee: - Isaiah 47: 13:

 

Rabbi Shimon was indignant at those unions which are finding out ways of Wisdom of reception according to names of external wisdom, instead of it agrees on names that is in a Torah and in Songs the Song - ways Rabbi Shimon״.

 

The item 16

״Rabbi Shimon has spoken: I have lifted hands in a pray to the Creator, that these things, (i.e. Wisdom of reception or the Cabbala), have opened in this world as they have been latent in my heart. Also there is no our participation in ways of those unions, but ways of a Torah we adhere in finding-out of Wisdom. ״

 

From the item 18:

“Comrades will tell them:

Will be trouble to that generation of which it was discharged rabbi Shimon Bar Johai.”

Apparently, there were many ״comrades״ has consisted at these external unions!

 

However, according to a plan of creation, the Creator opened the science of astrology in this world before the wisdom of reception - the Kabbalah. Therefore, the first cabbalist in the world has been obliged to know the science of astrology.  

Abraham beheld behind the seen world, ״origin from eyes״, the invisible world of the Creator “origin from origin” it became possible, because, he knew the science of astrology! 

 

5.

 

Let's look after Abraham's way since age 99 and up to 137.

 

"And ye shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of a covenant betwixt Me and you": - Genesis 17: 11:

"And Abraham was ninety years old and nine, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin": - Genesis 17: 24:

It was the indispensable precept of the Union to consecrate the posterity. Avram has executed the order to make it to all house including slaves. 

As the Creator השם -ה׳  has changed names of spouses Avram (99 years old) אברם and Sarai (89 years old) שׂרי, having added this divine letter the Gay ה׳ in their names אברהם and שרה, but, having taken away from her name the letter of wisdom Jud י. He will transfer this letter to Isaac יצחק. ״And Sarah said: 'God hath made laughter for me; every one that heard will laugh on account of me.'״ - Genesis 21: 6:

- Sarah has wanted to prove everyone, that she is a true mother of the child; therefore she nursed alien babies "on the day that Isaac was weaned". It has taken place, when Abraham has arranged the great feast under her request that day.

She lost the former wisdom, but has given birth to the son!

 

Let's open once again the chapter of Torah, Genesis 17.

 

"And God said unto Abraham: 'As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be:

And I will bless her, and moreover I will give thee a son of her; yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall be of her.’

Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart: 'Shall a child be born unto him that is a hundred years old? And shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?'

And Abraham said unto God: 'Oh that Ishmael might live before Thee!'" - Genesis 17: 15 - 18:

 

'Oh that Ishmael might live before Thee!'

Abraham's answer of to the promise that shall be a son of Sarah contains a hint that Abraham would become a murder of his own son according to the new horoscope. - That is, he, while laughed, has quickly made in mind the new horoscope and learned that he should kill the favorite son.

 

However the Creator has continued conversation and said to him, that all will good:

״And God said: 'Nay, but Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his seed after him':" - Genesis 17: 19:

 

And, the son Isaac was born one year later at Abraham, and the horoscope of the son confirmed, that the son will be lost by the hand of the father. It is hard to live with such prediction.

But in fact the Creator promised! He has rescued Abraham from the fiery furnace once.

That is, murder by any miracle will not take place. Abraham has drawn a conclusion, that his task to bring up the son in extreme, boundless belief in the Creator.

 

It passed 37 years after birth Isaac.

And He said: 'Take now thy son, thine only son, whom thou lovest, even Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt-offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.'׃ - Genesis 22 : 2:

Abraham plucked up his spirit and went to execute.

״And Isaac spoke unto Abraham his father, and said: 'My father.' And he said: 'Here am I, my son.' And he said: 'Behold the fire and the wood; but where is the lamb for a burnt-offering?':

And Abraham said: 'God will provide Himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son.' So they went both of them together:” - Genesis 22: 7 - 8:

Abraham hoped for a miracle of disposal by the mercy of God יהוה, and such test became full unexpected for Isaac, but he has relied on belief of the father.

It was also a test on strength of bonds binding the father and the son.

 

״And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son:

And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said: 'Abraham, Abraham.'

And he said: 'Here am I':

And he said: 'Lay not thy hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him; for now

I know that thou art a God-fearing man, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son, from Me.'׃

And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt-offering in the stead of his son״׃ - Genesis 22: 10 - 13:

 

Hope of Abraham came true that the Creator will not deceive him, but will execute all that has promised to him. Therefore the inner meaning of this test for Abraham was in bringing up the son in unshakable belief and be ready to offer his life for the sake of Sirs. And he has succeeded in his task. Moreover, father felt pity for the son, understanding as it is hard to pass this test for fidelity Reign of Kings.

Abraham could not achieve the perfection, without that there was no the son inheriting Belief in the Creator!

And it was the last tenth test of Abraham.

 

Isaac was in the age of 37 years. Number 37 means perfection in wisdom and perfection in 27 letters of a Hebrew, 37 = 10 + 27, to read the Book of Heavens a Torah. “And all peoples of the Land will be blessed in your posterity.”

Father and the son have received new horoscopes after the occurring miracle.

Isaac has shown heroism and courage, has not tried to struggle for a life in this world, having preferred to him the future world. He really appeared worthy the Union though the Creator did not open personally to him yet.

 

Book Zohar spoke that Creator has appointed the sacrifice Isaac, and has appointed the death Sarah for her fault of nursed alien babies on a feast "on the day that Isaac was weaned".

Sarahשׂרה  received the property of Bina, the inexhaustible source of milk has opened at her that day, and she spilled too bright light in Malhut (BON 52), so Malhut has felt perfect herself, and it will prevent her to be corrected. ³:

 

Also the secret sense was in this test. Book Zohar asks a question why it is written in Torah ״Lord has tested Abraham״, but is not written ״Lord has tested Isaac    

״But Abraham was not decorated perfect till this moment, making not court and his corrections. Interpretation for there is no ״wisdom’s״ light in his left line and consequently before Abraham has not joined in Isaac which left line is, could not be perfect,

He was in shortage of light ״wisdom״, and by means of action of linkage on hands and legs, became included in Isaac, and he was decorated with light ״wisdom״, and became perfect״.

 

Isaac was 37 years old when received the new success horoscope. It was his rebirth. Then Isaac has born two twins Esau and Jacob in his age 60. Moreover, he reached the age 122. 37 + 85 = 122. It remained to live five more years for his mother Sarah in this age (122) from whole 127, let off to her. In addition, his senior brother Ishmael had only one year from 137 let off to him.

Isaac decided to give blessing to the first-born Esau עשו immediately that day. While Esau was hairy שער, and the entire secret of this word is that these Jewish letters שער hint on the word רשע that he was a villain. Therefore, the Creator opened the third mouth (פ״ה פה, 85), when Isaac was 122 years old and gave blessing to Jacob being at 62. The son, Jacob, worked in both two lines, and became as an average line.  

 

It has passed 85 more years, and Jacob - Israel, being at 147,  

has given each of 12 sons the death blessing. 

"Judah, thee shall thy brother's praise; thy hand shall be on the neck of thine enemies; 

thy father's sons shall bow down before thee:" - Genesis 49: 8:  

 

Four consecutive blessings connect to the fiery union and opening of four mouths.  

 

We see that all dates connected to Abraham's life form in such hard pack.  

 

Let us notice, as the father and the son were sometimes very dissatisfied by actions of their wives, and hesitated, as it is better to act. This is a typical behavior of them which were born under constellation of Libra. As well the younger brother Haran of Abraham hesitated, whether to run together with the senior brother or not, and has got in a furnace, his body burnt, but the Creator installed his soul in the son of Abraham and Sarah, in Isaac, as it testifies their geometria. Gematria of the word Haran הרן is equal 255, and Gematria of the words "Isaac and ram

יצחק ואיל" is equal 208 + 47 = 255!

 

And our rabbis have deduced such rule. If any person is dangerously sick, someone from the nearest environment of a male comes in the morning in a synagogue to ask the conducting to read a pray about addition of a name.

You need to take the names of three ancestors Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and name Haim (life).

These names give to women, names of foremothers, Sarah, Rebecca, Leah and Hajj (life).

Then the destiny of the person changes according to an arrangement of planets and stars, in the best or the worse side, at the very same time as his/her name varies. And this is new his/her birth.

 

And I am extremely grateful to two people for participation in my destiny.

Rabbi Michael Lajtman has supported me before my third operation in 2001.

Moreover, the kind friend of my family Aaron Fradkin applied his efforts to add an additional name for me after operation, since I am Haim Alex.
