The Watchman On The Wall

The Watchman On The Wall
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Verse 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Tomorrow Is God's Big Day!

Image result for blood moons chart
A total solar eclipse is one of God’s grandest spectacle and this one tomorrow is linked to God's divine appointments, the Blood Moons (tetrad) and Shemitah. It is a warning to the world to repent and come back to God's Son Yeshua Hamaschiach or Jesus Christ. Notice the spacing of this solar eclipse to the Israeli election and seismic shift in Netanyahu's position towards the "Two State Solution".

A total solar eclipse can be seen only along a narrow pathway across Earth's surface.  In the case of the March 20, 2015 eclipse that pathway cuts east of Iceland, across the North Atlantic.

Above, is the path of the solar eclipse tomorrow. There’s a total eclipse of the sun coming up on Friday March 20, 2015 – the day of the vernal equinox!
Does the vernal equinox and the solar eclipse ‘just happen’ to occur on the same day? How often does this happen?
total eclipse of the sun and the March equinox do fall on the same date this year: March 20, 2015. The greatest eclipse occurs at 9:46 Universal Time, while the March equinox comes to pass some 13 hours later at 22:45 Universal Time.
The next solar eclipse at the March equinox will happen on March 20, 2034. Then there will be two more in this century: 2053 and 2072.
Note the spacing of 19 years between these four eclipses of the March equinox sun.
Does that mean there are four solar eclipses coinciding with the March equinox every century? No. If you know anything about astronomy, you might have guessed that – here as in most sky-related phenomena – there are cycles acting within cycles. Want to know more? Keep reading … 
A solar eclipse can only happen at new moon. For a solar eclipse to take place at the vernal equinox, therefore, the new moon must come on the equinox date. Of course, a March equinox new moon doesn’t always necessarily guarantee a solar eclipse. Here’s why.
New moons recur on (or near) the same calendar dates every 19 years. This 19-year lunar period is known as the Metonic cycle. Amazingly, you can project this 19-year cycle for centuries into the future (or past) to figure out when the new moon will occur on the March equinox.
For example, 11 Metonic cycles equal 209 years (19 years x 11 = 209 years).
Therefore, 209 years after March 20, 2015, the new moon and the March equinox will both take place on March 20, 2224. However, there won’t be a solar eclipse on March 20, 2224! As we just mentioned … a new moon on an equinox doesn’t guarantee an eclipse.

 Parts of the world will see a partial eclipse on March 20, 2015.  Click here to learn more about the partial eclipse.

From the best of our reckoning, there will be no solar eclipses taking place on the March equinox during the 22nd century (2101-2200) and 23rd century (2201-2300). However, there is an eclipse cycle called the Gregoriana whereby we can also expect the recurrence of a March equinox solar eclipse in a period of 372 years. It happens because, in a cycle of 372 years, the phases of the moon recur on (or near) the same weekdays and calendar dates. The eclipses (usually) fall on the same dates as well.
Hence, the next series of March equinox solar eclipses:
March 20, 2387: Partial solar eclipse
March 20, 2406: Total solar eclipse
March 20, 2425: Annular solar eclipse
March 19, 2444: Annular solar eclipse
March 20, 2463 Partial solar eclipse
And the previous series of March equinox solar eclipses:

March 19, 1624: Partial solar eclipse
March 20, 1643: Total solar eclipse
March 20, 1662: Total solar eclipse
March 20, 1681: Hybrid (Annular/Total) solar eclipse
