THE SCORPION STINGS


IOPNA looks at the 3rd constellation in the Mazzaroth (Zodiac):

 Moving along the ecliptic line we can't miss Scorpio - even Libra's stars were named for Scorpio.

Yes, if you can’t see Scorpio’s tail you need to have your eyes tested.  Notice that while Ophiuchus wrestles with Serpens he is bitten on the heel by Scorpio
…just like God said to the serpent in the Garden of Eden: “thou shalt bruise his heel.”

Satan tried desperately to frustrate God’s plan of redemption. Remember Pharaoh ordering all Hebrew boys to be thrown to the crocodiles, Athalia trying to destroy all of the royal heirs, Haman planning to exterminate all Jews in the Persian Empire and Herod ordering all those baby boys around Bethlehem be killed.
So with Jesus hanging dead on the cross it sure looked as though Satan had finally succeeded in wrecking God’s plan.

But what was the first half of the ‘protevangelium’ prophecy in Genesis 3 verse 15?
“...it (the seed) shall bruise your head…” said to the serpent.

Well the 3rd constellation possibly associated with Scorpio is Hercules – the strong man….with his foot on the head of Draco the dragon.
Of course. The enemy knows his victory will be short lived. 
So which son of Jacob could have connected with Scorpio?                                                                
Well, take your pick. Naphtali means ‘wrestling’ and there’s plenty of that happening here but I think Dan as the biting serpent might have identified here too.

There sure seems to be some correlation between the Mazzaroth and the biblical story of redemption. Let’s move on to…

Sagittarius next.
