Dear Ones,
You may realize by now that the upcoming “Great American Eclipse” is associated with the biblical story of Jonah and the city of Nineveh.
The theme of that story borders on repentance, whatever it may mean in modern times.
Below is an excerpt from lecturer William Henry, as well an account of the story from Encyclopedia Britannica.
If that is not enough, here is a link to the meditation you can do this coming Monday at 6:18 PM UTC—2:18 PM New York time.
This promises to be a most astounding time, doesn’t it?
If that is an indication of some mystery, the EST time of our gathering tomorrow is composed of five 4.
April (4th month) 4, 2024 (4+4), at 4 pm
Topic: The story of Jonah and Nineveh
Time: Apr 4 @ 4:00 pm Eastern Time

Dear Starwalkers,
The Great American Eclipse of 2024 is coming on April 8! What will it bring? It will be exciting to see. Strange things are possible. Personally, I’m watching the prophetic types who are proclaiming this eclipse as a Sign, even of Christ. This is mainly based on the fact that it crisscrosses the path of the 2017 eclipse and because the path of totality of the 2024 eclipse moves through Jonah, Texas and at least two towns called Nineveh (a biblical place name associated with repentance). Don’t forget the so-called Devil’s Comet also reappears on April 8. Since the 1300s this comet has periodically put on a light show in our skies and is putting an exclamation point on Monday’s event.
Peace + Love.

Synopsis
According to the biblical account, God orders Jonah to warn the citizens of Nineveh, a principal Assyrian city, to repent of their wickedness, but Jonah refuses to believe that these hated people deserve salvation. Rather than traveling east to the landlocked city of Nineveh, he instead runs west to the port of Joppa and boards a ship headed for Tarshish across the Mediterranean Sea. A storm threatens the ship and the sailors draw lots to find out which man is the cause of their misfortune. The lot falls to Jonah, who tells the sailors that the storm is his fault and instructs them to throw him overboard. Once Jonah is thrown into the sea, the storm subsides and the sailors worship the Hebrew God.
Mosaic of the biblical story of Jonah; in the cathedral in Aquileia, Italy.
Alone in the sea, Jonah is swallowed by a huge fish and spends three days and nights in its belly, where he prays for deliverance. God commands the fish to spit the man out on land, and finally Jonah heads to Nineveh to comply with God’s original instructions to him. Upon hearing the prophet’s warning, the king and the people of Nineveh repent, and God does not punish them.

Jonah is angry with God for the mercy shown to the Ninevites and flees the city to see if God will perhaps still destroy it. Outside of the city, the prophet builds a crude shelter for himself and God sends a plant to shade the prophet from the sun. Jonah is pleased with his shady hovel, but then God sends a worm to eat the plant, and it dies. Exposed to the heat and the wind, Jonah is angered by the loss of his plant. God chastises him for being concerned about a wild plant but not about the many thousands of citizens in the great city.
