Book Description
The twelve signs of the Zodiac are as old as civilization itself. Yet their origin has puzzled historians. The Bible attributes the "Mazzaroth" (12 signs of the Zodiac) to God. King David wrote that a special Divine message has been heralded to all people of every language in the sky -- as the sun moves through the twelve "houses." MYSTERY of the MAZZAROTH decodes the pictorial message of the Zodiac, showing that it contains the same language of prophetic symbols found in the Bible. The Mazzaroth and the Bible contain the same prophetic story -- Israel's history written in advance. This story begins with God's covenant with Abraham and ends with its ultimate fulfillment -- the Messiah's Kingdom. Previous Christian attempts to decode the Zodiac were all based on the linguistic work of Francis Rolleston. Her theory has been thoroughly debunked. This book presents a completely new approach. Never before has the sequence of Zodiac signs been understood in light of Bible prophecy, telling the sequential story of Israel's history and redemption. This book will open your eyes to a powerful reason to believe that God exists, and that the Creator is the same God who appeared to Abraham.

Book Description
In Mazzaroth; or The constellations, originally published in 1862, 19th-century English linguist and scholar FRANCES ROLLESTON (1781-1864) presents readers with her theory of the gospel in the stars. Rolleston believed that through the ancient names for the stars, one could discover the oldest knowledge transmitted from God to man: the method of man's redemption and the coming of the Jewish messiah. Mentioned in the book of Job, the Mazzaroth is generally believed to be the signs of zodiac. By passing through each sign, a person with a full understanding of the constellations and their meanings can interpret God's message. Rolleston painstakingly provides readers with evidence, she claims, that the signs of the zodiac are an allegory for the New Testament. Through Egyptian hieroglyphs, Assyrian writings, and even the writings in ancient Mexico, she constructs a system of symbols and metaphors all of which attest to a singular meaning to the arrangement of the constellations. Students of the occult and readers with an interest in astrology will find this an entertaining read.

Book Description
Frances Rolleston's fascinating and thoroughly researched accounts of constellations derived from Egyptian astronomy appear fresh and original even in the modern day. This edition includes over seventy charts and tables crucial for understanding the text. Published gradually in the 1860s, these investigations of Egyptian astronomy are framed within the original 48 star constellation. By using this against known texts and inscriptions from Egypt, Rolleston was able to learn an immense amount not merely of how Egypt's astronomers and scientists considered the stars, but how later societies and religions developed as a result of this early astronomy and astrology. Egypt was the first ancient civilization to substantially study and map the constellations of stars and their movements. Many of the Bible's references to the heavens are informed by Egyptian recordings, and the modern star signs and constellations we refer to today - which Rolleston has as her frame of understanding - began their existence in Egypt. Rolleston boldly demonstrates how Egypt's astronomy had a heavy bearing on the authors of both the Old and New Testaments. Simply put, Christianity would be a very different religion - perhaps unrecognizable from its present form - had Egypt not recorded and developed its system of astronomical observations and symbols. The very first constellation is 'The Virgin' - conceived by the Egyptians, the symbolic sign was an important religious concept. The bulk of this text is an in-depth investigation of each constellation and its meaning. We traverse the twelve star signs of modern astronomy, together with the stories of the Bible. Not content with identifying the constellations' interpretation in the Middle East, Rolleston also examines how they were viewed in ancient India and Scandinavia, noting the religious significance that arose in these civilizations. In ancient societies the stars and astronomical phenomena were thought important in spiritual matters. Human society placed great meaning upon the stars and their patterns, believing that they were messages from the heavens. Rolleston's study is superbly researched, and an underappreciated classic for its comprehensive account of the long marriage between the spiritual traditions, and the stars above.
