Calendars , calendars everwhere!

One of the BIGGEST topics of division is which CALENDAR to follow? I’ve always studied calendars and have put aside all except the Hebrew calendar because even though we know it is off, it didn’t seem that it was as “off” as others. Those other calendars bring us to a state of chaos which I know is apart from the will of the Father. However this past year I began using what is called the ESSENE CALENDAR. Seemed like a good time to test it because I don’t currently have a fellowship group so I am not bringing disharmony to the Body, since my following this calendar doesn’t actually effect anyone else in the Body. What I like about the Essene Calendar is that there is a rhythm and consistency about each part that isn’t really up to argument because it just is what it is.
Anyone else follow this calendar?
How has your experience compared to the observance of the Jewish/Hebrew Calendar?
Do you have an opinion about which most likely resembles the Creators calendar?

Just thoughts…

I’m not familiar. Is it the same as the Zadok calendar?

I haven’t heard anything about the Essene calendar, very interesting!

From my studies, any calendar must use the observation of the moon for H4150 moed.
Psalm 104:19 Father Yah made the moon for moed.

Is anyone interested in Father’s heavenly lights only calendar? My wife and I have been keeping it for over 2 years. So simple a 10yr old can understand it. Blessings.

Could you give me a rundown?

My wife and I begged Father Yah for a completey visuable wilderness calendar for over 5 years that is in accordance with scripture. This is what we feel he has shown us. We have been keeping this calendar for 2 years. Just seeing if this can bless someone else.
If this is too big for a chat I apologize.

Father’s Visual Heavenly Lights Calendar

Discerned by collectively observing only the Sun, Moon, and Stars - also drawing upon the visual Spring Equinox to substantiate the year’s beginning New Moon.

Psalm 148:1-6. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord from the heavens; praise Him in the heights. Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His hosts. Praise Him, Sun and Moon; praise Him, all you shining Stars. Praise Him, highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens. Let them praise the name of Father Yah, for He commanded, and they were created. He set them in position forever and ever; He gave an order that will never pass away.

Deuteronomy 4:19. When you look to the heavens and see the Sun, Moon, and Stars—all the array of heaven…The Lord your God has provided them
as a sign (H853 non translated) for all people everywhere under heaven.

Psalm 8:3 When I observe Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the Moon and the Stars, in which You set in place.

Enoch 41:6-8. And first the sun goes out, and makes his way according to the command of the Lord of the spirits, and strong is his name to all eternity; and after this the Hidden and the(n) Revealed course of the moon, COMPLETING the course of her way in that place by day and by night, One Looking At The Other [i.e. opposite each other] before the Lord of the spirits; and they give thanks and praise and do not rest, for their thanksgiving is rest for them. For the shining Sun makes many changes for a blessing and for a curse, and The Course Of The Path Of The Moon is Light To The Just, and Darkness to the Sinners in the name of the Lord who created a separation between light and darkness, and divided the spirits of men, and strengthened the spirits of the just, in the name of his own justice.

And quoted from Enoch 41:8 :
Proverbs 4:18-22 But the path of the just is as the shining light (Moon), that shineth more and more unto the perfect day (The completed full Moon). The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble. My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

And also from Enoch 41:8:

Psalm 97:6,10-12. The heavens announce Father Yah’s righteousness… All The Peoples see His glory.Father Yah loves those who hate evil; he guards the lives of his faithful he rescues them from the hand of the wicked. (Moon) Light Is Sown For The Righteous, and joy for the upright in heart. Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous, and give thanks to his holy name!

Psalm 89:14-16 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; faithful love and truth go before You. Happy are the people who know the joyful shout (Ram’s Horn [shofar] blown for New Moons and special feast days, Psalm 81:3); Father Yah, they walk in the light of Your presence. They rejoice in Your name all day long, and they are exalted by Your righteousness.

Genesis 1:14. Then Father Yah (H3068-YHWH) said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night. They Will Serve As Signs For Festivals (H4150) and for Days and Years.

Father Yah’s Visual Heavenly Calendar, marking his Holy Days (H4150-appointments of time for his people), from the beginning, established his intent for intimate fellowship with all his creation. Therefore: he lit a stable, trustworthy road map in the heavens, giving to all who truly seek him the ability to find him. It was Important to him that everyone see his perfected majesty, and experience the beauty of his holiness, hearing it’s voice (Psalm 19:1-4, Romans 10:18); giving to all the opportunity to come intimately unto him in worship. Specifically those who would open their spiritual eyes to listen: discerning his heavenly invitation, and choosing to gather with him on his set-apart days. They having the courage to daily set aside their own selfish ambition and worldly appointed times, to discern and then prioritize his calendar with its biblical appointments, putting him first in their lives; validating their love for him above their love for themselves, and their love for this world. Therefore…Father Yah made the Sun, Moon and Stars, within the firmament, to work together as a visual heavenly clock; each having their own specific roles.

Psalm 89:37…like the Moon, established forever, a Faithful Witness in the sky.

Witness to what?.. Father’s meeting times with his people (Leviticus 23–Sabbaths and Festivals H-4150). A sign in the heavens from which all of his appointed gatherings can be determined. He calls these gatherings with believers, HIS APPOINTED TIMES.

Psalm 104:19. Father Yah made the Moon to mark the festivals (H4150); the Sun knows when to set.

Q: Can believers today truly determine all Father’s appointed times by
watching the heavens, keeping an eye on the shape of the Moon?
A: When interacted with Sun and Stars…Yes…read on.

Luke 23:44-46. It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour (noon-3pm). The sun was darkened (solar eclipse), and the veil of the temple was torn in two. Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into your hands I commit my spirit! Having said this, he breathed his last.

Father Yah commissioned Passover to be the 14th day of the first biblical month (Abib). Jesus died on Passover. In nature, a solar eclipse can only happen on a dark Moon as it conjuncted with the Sun. The Moon is dark exactly one time each month, on the 14th or 15th day of the month, occuring every 29 or 30 days. Therefore:

Q: If a month truly starts in darkness, at the dark Moon conjunction, or first
crescent spotting, as many observe and follow; how can the Moon be
dark again (solar eclipse) fourteen days later in the middle of the month
at Passover?
A: It cannot! This is one of the most powerful biblical evidentiary proofs for
the Full Moon beginning the month. To have a documented solar eclipse
on the 14th day of the month (Passover), the Moon must have been Full
to begin the month.


Philo: (Ancient Historian)

“Following the order which we have adopted, we proceed to speak of the third festival, that of the new moon. First of all, because it is the beginning of the month, and the beginning, whether of number or of time, is honorable. Secondly, because at this time there is nothing in the whole of heaven destitute of light.” (Philo, Special Laws II, Section XXVI (140-142)

Enoch 79:3…for in that sixth portal her light (Moon) is completed, and from then, there Is THE BEGINNING Of the month.

Father chose the easily visible Fully lit Moon to begin each month.

Q. In the nightime sky, sometimes the Moon looks fully lit for multiple days.
How can we know which day begins the biblical month?
A. The biblical day begins at sunrise (discussed later). And when Sun and Full
Moon are first both visible together at sunrise, on opposite sides of the
same horizon: the Sun rising in the East and the Moon setting in the
West; the Moon is complete, the biblical month has begun
(Enoch 41:6, 78:11-13, 79:3, 83:11).

Enoch 78:11-13. All the time in which the moon continues in her light she increases opposite the sun, till on the fourteenth day her light is completed in heaven; and when she shines in full her light is completed in the heavens. And on the first (that) day (of her completion) she is called the New Moon, for on that day the light is (fully) raised upon her. And she is COMPLETED exactly on the day the sun descends in the west and when at night she ascends from the east and shines all night till the sun rises opposite her and the moon is SEEN opposite the sun.

Enoch 83:11. And as I went out below, and looked at the heavens and the Sun rising in the east, and the Moon descending in the west, and some few Stars, and everything as he had known it from the first…

This sign begins each month and therefore it also begins each year. Amazingly, it happens every 29 or 30 days and is always New Moon Day–Day 1 of Father’s monthly calendar. It is easily visible without electronics, and completely verifiable. A child who is watching can discern this. Light shines in the heavens this day for 24 straight hours with nothing destitute of light, as the Jewish Historian Philo stated.

Q: How do we know when to start watching for this month beginning sign?
A: On the 1/2 Moon waxing (increasing), the 1/2 Moon will be
above your head, high in the sky at sunset, easily visible in periwinkle
evening twilight, before visible stars; 7 or 8 days after this sign,
Sun and Full Moon will first greet on opposite sides of the horizon at
Sunrise. If you see the 1/2 Moon high in the sky at sunrise, it is a
decreasing (waning) Moon, on its way to being hidden 7 days later.

For another biblical evidence for Full New Moon, we can look at the Interlinear Old Testament in Psalm 81:3. We are told in this Psalm when to blow the ram’s horn (shofar). It is blown on monthly New Moons and on Father’s 3 major pilgrimage festivals (H2822). This verse presents that the Full Moon is the new Moon.

Psalm 81:3. (Hebrew Interlinear all words) Blow up at the New Moon the rams horn at the Full Moon day…

Not only the Moon, but the Stars also play a very important role in Father’s Heavenly Calendar. Abib means “ears of barley” in Hebrew and is an earlier name of the Star Spica (Latin- “ear of grain”). Spica is the brightest Star in the constellation Virgo (Virgin) (Bethulah), and is located by her left hand, shining upon the barley she is holding. Father said in Exodus that the Full Moon would be next to Spica (Abib) (Virgo holding barley) to initiate the new year. Father used one of the brightest stars in the sky so we can easily determine when this year beginning event takes place. Early sailors would also have been aware of this event as they used the triangle consisting of Spica (brightest Star in Virgo), Arcturus (brightest northern hemisphere Star), and Polaris (The North Star) to navigate the seas. On the night before the biblical new year, the Full Moon spends all night in proximity to Spica (Abib). This celestial event happens in the spring between early March and early April. Also Passover, Abib 14, must happen after the spring equinox to qualify for the years beginning; this keeps the Moon in step with the Sun.
If the 14th of Abib is not after the spring equinox, you add a 13th month. When this does happen, at the end the next (13th) month, incredibly, the full Moon will be back in Virgo again to initiate the biblical year.

Exodus 12:1 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt: This month (New Moon) is to be the beginning of months (New Moons) for you; it is the first month of your year.

(H____ Strong’s Numbers)
Exodus 23:15. Observe H8104 the Festival H2282 of Unleavened Bread H4682. As H834 I commanded H6680 you, you are to eat H398 unleavened bread H4682 for seven H7651 days H3117 at the appointed time H4150 (Festival) in the month H2320(New Moon) of Abib H24(ears of barley in Virgo’s hand), because H3588 you came out H3318 of H4480 Egypt 4714 in that month.

Deuteronomy 16:1. Observe H8104 the month H2320(New Moon) of Abib H24(ears of barley in Virgo’s hand), and celebrate H6213 the Passover H6453 to the LORD H3068 your God H430, because H3588 the LORD H3068 your God H430 brought you out H3318 of H4480 Egypt H4714 by night H3915 in the month H2320(New Moon) of Abib H24(ears of barley in Virgo’s hand).

Another interesting aspect of this is the Paleo-Hebrew letters for the word observe (H8104). The Paleo-Hebrew was the original Hebrew language at the time of King David. Each Hebrew letter had word pictures associated with it. Each letter of the word, painted a word picture, as well as having a normal definition of the entire word (from Jeff Benner’s work).

Observe* in Paleo-Hebrew H8104 (Resh-Mem-Shin)

Hebrew is read right to left:
Shin=(eyes wide open, according to the Moon)
Mem=(filled to complete [like water fills a cup])
Resh=(beginning)(man)
*Word Picture: open your eyes wide to determine the Moon, when filled to complete, beginning for man

Genesis 1:14…Father Yah made the Two Great Lights—the greater light to have dominion over the day (Sun) and the lesser light to have dominion over the night (Moon)—as well as the Stars.

In Father’s Heavenly Timepiece the Sun likewise has its role. It tells us when the spring equinox has arrived (The tip of the Sun’s shadow, from an upright pole, travels on a straight line.). Interestingly, that straight line travels exactly west to east on the day it crosses the equator.
The Sun also tells us when the day begins (sunrise), and when the day ends (sunset). The Sun rules the day, the Moon and Stars rule the night. Sun and Stars are NEVER seen together. When you see the Sun it is biblical Day, when you don’t, it is biblical Night. Father used a succinct, easy to see sign in differentiating day from night.

Jeremiah 31:35 Father Yah, who gives the Sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the Moon and of the Stars for a light by night…

Malachi 1:11 For My name will be great among the nations, from the rising of the Sun to its setting (a visual sign for each biblical day).

John 11:9 Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours (shaddow of a sundial) in a day?

The Sun also gives us an indication to what season we are in by the number of hours it shines each day. In the spring and fall, it shines close to twelve hours (equinox means equal night). In the summer, the Sun’s light lengthens to over 15 hours a day. In the winter, the Sun’s light decreases to less than 9 hours. In ancient times the day was divided into 12 equal parts according to the Sundial. In the summer, hours were longer; in the winter, hours were shorter. On New Moon Day the Sun greets the Moon on opposite sides of the horizon at Sunrise. In the middle of the month, It always overlaps the Moon, hiding it, on the dark Moon Sabbath. Each Spring, after the Sun crosses the equator, THEN the Passover may be observed, keeping the Moon in step with the Sun.

In Genesis 1, Father labeled the spaces that surround and separate day from night. The space between day and night he named ereb (H6153), and the space between night and day he named boker (H1242). These twilight worship spaces surrounded man’s workday (sunrise to sunset), and were the times Father instructed Moses to sacrifice a daily lamb at each space, One lamb was offered before sunrise and the other lamb after sunset.

Numbers 28:3-5. Father said, this is the fire offering you are to present to me: each day present two unblemished year-old male lambs as a regular burnt offering. Offer one lamb in the morning (H1242, first light until sunrise) and the other lamb at twilight (H6153, sunset until darkness).

Father surrounded darkness with praise and worship of him, desiring to protect his people daily from the adversary satan; without imposing on man’s work day. And as we will see, these spaces are a part of Father’s biblical night.

Psalm 104:22-23. The Sun rises; …Man goes out to his work and to his labor until evening (H6153-sunset).

1 Chronicles 23:30. And King David commissioned the Levites to stand every morning (H1242) to thank and praise FatherYah, and likewise at even (H6153)…

Numbers 9:15. On the day the tabernacle was set up, the cloud covered the tabernacle, the tent of the testimony, and it appeared like fire above the tabernacle from evening (H6153-sunset to darkness) until morning (H1242-first light until sunrise). It remained that way continuously: the cloud would cover it, appearing like FIRE AT NIGHT.

Genesis 1:4-5. Father Yah saw that the light was good, and Father separated H914 (put a space between) the light from the darkness. Father called the (Sun) light H216 day H3117, and He called the darkness H2822 night H3915. Evening H6153 (ereb) Came and then morning H1242 (boker): the first day H3117 (HCSB).

Father defined the biblical night, sunset (6153) until sunrise (H1242).
At the end of morning twilight (boker H1242), the Sun’s glistening rays explode onto the horizon as a new day begins.

This coincides with the biblical night watches (H821):

  • 1st night watch–(evening watch) sunset until darkness (H6153-ereb)
  • 2nd night watch–darkness to midnight
  • 3rd night watch–midnight to twilight (first light)(cock crowing)
  • 4th night watch–(morning watch) first light until sunrise (H1242-boker)

Exodus 14:24. During the morning (H1242) watch (H821), Father Yah looked down on the Egyptian forces from the pillar of fire and cloud, and set upon them a destructive confusion.

Jesus also verified the night watches:

Mark 13:35-37. Therefore be alert, since you don’t know when the master of the house is coming—whether in the evening (1st) or at midnight (2nd) or at the crowing of the rooster (3rd) or early in the morning (4th). Otherwise, he might come suddenly and find you sleeping. And what I say to you, I say to everyone: Be alert!

Luke 12:35-38. Be ready for service and have your lamps lit. You must be like people waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet so that when he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once. Those slaves the master will find alert when he comes will be blessed. I assure you: He will get ready, have them recline at the table, then come and serve them. If he comes at midnight (2nd), or even at the third watch, and finds them alert, those slaves are blessed.

Matthew 14:25-26. And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples SAW him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.

The morning twilight (4th night watch-H1242 boker) was also a significant time of prayer for King David. These times were mentioned by him, in Psalms: 5:3, 55:17, 88:13, and143:8. Interestingly again, Father considers these spaces of time to be a Part Of His Biblical Night!

Psalm 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning (H1242), Father Yah; in the morning (H1242), will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

Psalm 55:17 Evening (H6153), and morning (H1242), and at noon I will declare and make known my wants: and Father Yah shall hear my voice.

Psalm 88:13 But I call to You for help, FatherYah; in the morning (H1242) my prayer meets You.

Psalm143:8. Let me experience Your faithful love in the morning (H1242),
for I trust in You. Reveal to me the way I should go because I long for You.

Father Yah spoke the 10 commandments at morning twilight (H1242)…

Exodus 19:16-19 On the third day, when morning (H1242) came, there was thunder and lightning, a thick cloud on the mountain, and a loud trumpet sound, so that all the people in the camp shuddered. Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. Mount Sinai was completely enveloped in smoke because Father Yah came down on it in fire. Its smoke went up like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain shook violently. As the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God answered him in the thunder.

Isaiah said Father Yah woke him early every morning (H1242):

Isaiah 50:4…Father Yah awakens Me every morning (H1242). He awakens My ear to listen like those being instructed.

Jeremiah said through Father’s faithful love, his mercies were new every morning (H1242):

Lamentations 3:22-23. Because of Father Yah’s faithful love we do not perish, for His mercies never end. They are new every morning (H1242); great is Your faithfulness!

We are told in the New Testament that temple prayer times were 9:00am and 3:00 pm. Maybe so, but as we have clearly seen from Father’s Instructions this was not so in the beginning, or at the time of King David. Temple prayer times were approximately 6:00am and 6:00 pm, depending on the time of the day’s sunrise and sunset. Jesus also went to the temple before sunrise. Satan is a master manipulator and deceiver, taking every opportunity to rob believers of Father’s protection and intimacy; disturbing even the observance of Father’s daily appointments.

John 8:2. At dawn (G3722- light before sunrise) Jesus went to the temple complex AGAIN, and all the people were coming to Him. He sat down and began to teach.

Luke 21:37-38. During the day, He was teaching in the temple complex, but in the evening He would go out and spend the night on what is called the Mount of Olives. Then all the people would come early in the morning (corresponding number in the Septuagint–Genesis 19:27(H1242)) to hear Him in the temple complex.

The disciples after Jesus’s crucifixion and resurrection also went to the temple before sunrise at boker.

Acts 5:18-21. So they arrested the apostles and put them in the city jail. But an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail during the night, brought them out, and said, “Go and stand in the temple complex, and tell the people all about this life.” In obedience to this, they entered the temple complex at daybreak (G3722 light before sunrise) and began to teach.

After morning twilight, at the end of the night, the Sun begins its grand entrance signifying the beginning of a new day; and when the Sun sets, the day has gracefully ended.

Besides taking part with the Moon to attest to the years beginning, the Stars also tell us what season we are in, what month we are in, and the length of a day and night together in Father’s Heavenly Timepiece.

Ursa Minor (The Little Dipper) spins around Polaris (The North Star) once every 23 hours 56 minutes and 4 seconds. This is the true 24 hour biblical (day+night) length.

The position of The Big dipper’s cup (Ursa Major) after Sunset (when you can first see it) tells you what season you are in. In the spring, the cup is horizontal upside down, pouring down its healing rains. In the summer, it faces The North Star, cup down vertical. In the fall the cup is right-side up, ready to fill for harvest. And in the winter, it is vertical again, cup up. Father gives us this accurate, easy to see, heavenly reminder of what season we are in as we look-up to his creation.

Father also created twelve Star constellations to discern another part of his timekeeping system. They interact with Sun and Moon telling you what month/ season you are in. They always complete their circuit in exactly the same order, and season: Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer and Leo.

The Moon tells its time with the Stars, by observing what Star constellation it is seen within. It is easy to see what constellation the Moon is in because it is readily seen all night long. It’s monthly/seasonal marking Star constellations are:

Spring: Virgo, Libra and Scorpio
Summer: Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius
Fall: Pisces, Aries and Taurus
Winter: Gemini, Cancer and Leo–all in that order.

But take notice–only in the beginning and the ending of each month, when it is Full and easy to see, is the Moon in it’s month identifying Star constellation: on the New Moon day, and also sometimes for a day or two, at the end of the month, days 28, 29, or 30. In between, it embarks on a similar journey each month, traveling throughout all the other 11 constellations in order, until it returns at the end of the month to it’s month identifying constellation. It wanes to the dark Moon, then waxes back to Full Moon. Also, in its dark moon phase, the Moon always travels with the Sun for 2 days–days 14 and 15–in the middle of the biblical month.

Enoch 74:5. And in two (nights) the Moon sets with the Sun, in those two portals which are in the middle, in the third and in the fourth portal.

The Sun also has it’s season identifying Star constellation opposite the Moon’s star constellation. Unlike the Moon, the Sun is with the same Star constellation until it moves on to the next. But It is more difficult to discern in what constellation the Sun is in, because when the Sun is visible, there are no visable Stars. But you can verify the Sun’s constellation after evening twilight or before morning twilight. Looking to see what constellation is at the horizon, then surmise the one before (sunrise), or the one after (sunset). To begin the year, the Sun is in either in the star constellation Pisces or Aries, depending on when the Full Moon gloriously spends all night next to Spica (Abib), and the Passover falling after the equinox. Then it follows in this order:

Spring: Pisces, Aries and Taurus
Summer: Gemini, Cancer and Leo
Fall: Virgo, Libra and Scorpio
Winter: Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius.

Also, as long as we have internet devices, Stellarium is an accurate and free, phone or computer–Sun, Moon, and Stars app that can look ahead or behind in time and easily verify all this information. But an app is not what’s needed–only a willing heart, and courageous eyes, to watch and discern Father’s perfect provision in the firmament, unto intimate fellowship with him.

Amos 5:8. The One who made the Pleiades (Taurus) and Orion, who turns darkness into morning (H1242) and darkens day into night, who summons the waters of the sea and pours them out over the face of the earth—Father Yah is His name.

Psalm 89:36-37. King David’s offspring will continue forever, his throne like the Sun before Me, like the Moon, ESTABLISHED FOREVER, a faithful witness in the sky.

Psalm 104:19. Father Yah made the Moon to mark the festivals (H4150); the Sun knows when to set.

As already stated, the Moon is Father’s heavenly marker to discern all his appointments of time (H4150–festivals) with believers. The Sabbath is the first of these appointments listed in Leviticus 23; it occurs each week.

Leviticus 23:1-3. Father Yah spoke to Moses: Speak to the Israelites and tell them: These are MY appointed times (H4150), the times of the Lord that you will proclaim as sacred assemblies. Work may be done for six days, but on the seventh day there must be a Sabbath of complete rest, a sacred assembly. You are not to do any work; it is a Sabbath to Father Yah WHEREVER YOU LIVE.

These are the lighted shapes of the Moon Father set in the firmament to mark his appointed weekly Sabbath gathering with his people for eternity:

The 1st day New Moon (Moon 100% lit) (Sun and Moon greet at sunrise)
The 8th day of the month (Sabbath)–half Moon waning (light decreasing)
The15th day of the month(Sabbath)–completely covered, dark Moon
The 22nd day of the month(Sabbath)–half Moon waxing (light increasing)
The 29th day of the month (Sabbath)-- full Moon

We also know the approximate day of the month, based upon our observation of which portion of the Moon is lit each night. Father proportionately lights the Moon progressively, approximately 1/14 more each night while waxing, or 1/14 less each night while waning. Because the Moon actually cycles in 29.5 days, some months have 29 days, and some 30.

Q. When we observe a half moon, how do we differentiate whether it is a
half Moon waning or a half Moon waxing (decreasing or increasing)?
A. By the time of day the Moon is high in the sky. As stated earlier, a
decreasing half Moon is high in the sky at sunrise. An increasing half
Moon is high in the sky at sunset. As the Moon decreases you will see it at
sunrise. As it is increasing, you will see it at sunset.

Incredibly, without identifying the correct day to begin each month (New Moon), Father’s true Sabbaths are still hidden, not identifiable, nor understood by man. New Moon Day is always day 1 of each month and is the sign for determining your next 4 Sabbaths: days 8,15, 22, and 29, all seven days apart. Interestingly, in the 66 book current Canon of scripture, every identifiable Sabbath (about 30x) is remarkably one of these four days.

Isaiah 66:22-23. For just as the new heavens and the new earth,
which I will make, will endure before Me—this is the Lord’s declaration —
so your offspring and your name will endure. All mankind will come to worship Me: from one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath to another, says Father Yah.

Again, it is important to understand: without the correct New Moon, we do not know Father’s true Sabbaths–from one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath to another. Even after a new heavens and earth, each New Moon marks the next four Sabbaths in Father’s Heavenly Timepiece!

Hebrews 4:9-10 …Therefore, a Sabbath rest (4th Commandment) remains for God’s people. For the person who has entered God’s rest has rested from his own works, just as God did from His.

Q: Did you know that Father commanded the inner gate of the temple to be
open on New Moon Day as well as Sabbaths?
A: Yes, the New Moon is a temple worship day. No regular buying or selling
is to take place on that day.

Amos 8:5. When will the New Moon be over so we may sell grain, and the Sabbath, so we may market wheat?

Ezekiel 46:1. This is what Father Yah says: The gate of the inner court that faces east must be closed during the six days of work, but it will be opened on the Sabbath day and opened on the day of the New Moon.

The New Moon Day also biblically guides us to all Father’s other appointed festivals (H4150), not just his Sabbaths. Father Yah has 7 other festivals he commanded man to observe with him throughout the year. Most of them are in the spring or in the fall; one is in the summer. They all coincide with harvest times. Father calls them HIS festivals. Since New Moon day is always day 1 of each month, we can then count his days to find all Father’s other festival dates. Father Yah’s Complete Majesty is openly displayed day and night in the heavens, guiding those who desire to pursue an intimate relationship with him: to count his days and participate intimately with him in observing all his festivals with him. All Father’s appointments of time are found in Leviticus 23, as well as in parts of Exodus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy 16.

Moses wrote:
Psalm 90:12. So teach us to number (H4487- to count) our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.

As you can now begin to see: man’s watching the heavens, and counting the days, was always an integral part of Father’s plans. Man who desires intimacy with Father Yah, can find it through watching, discerning, and then counting: following Father’s calendar and its appointed times (H4150). Father Yah created and commissioned his calendar during the 6 days of creation.

After the 4th Sabbath (29th day of the month), if the Full Moon greets the Sun the next morning on the horizon at sunrise, you have a New Moon Day; if not, a 30th day is added to the month. Then, the very next morning, the Moon WILL greet the Sun at sunrise, because no biblical month has more than 30 days.

Also keep in mind, the Moon’s yearly cycle is about 10 days less than the Sun’s yearly cycle, creating the need for a 13th month (explained earlier) approximately every third year. At the end of the12th month, when the Sun visually greets the Full Moon at sunrise; if the Full Moon did NOT spend the night in proximity to Spica (Abib) (ears of barley in Virgo’s hand), or if Passover will not fall after the Spring Equinox (The tip of the Sun’s shadow from a pole travels in a straight line), you add a 13th month to the year. No worries, this naturally happens when needed. And when this happens, the Moon will be back in Virgo at the end of the next month (13th), spending the night next to Spica (Abib), and the Passover will be after the spring equinox, keeping the Moon in step with the Sun. This is the true beginning of the biblical year.

The ancient Babylonian calendar and the modern Hebrew calendar add an extra month just before the spring equinox at the end of years: 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 17 and 19 of each 19-year Moon cycle (Metonic cycle). Meton was a Babylonian astronomer. Beware, Meton’s 19 year Moon cycle starts on a different day and year than Father’s, and the years in which he adds an extra month are not exactly the same years as when Father adds the extra months on his calendar.

The Moon does have a 19 year cycle. Amazingly, every 19 years the Moon’s cycle begins at the New Moon at sunrise on the day of the vernal (spring) equinox!

And even if you have never heard of a Moon cycle, nor have understanding of how it works, Father Yah shows exactly when to add the13th month. As long as you follow his instructions, you will still have each year’s beginning accurately. The current Biblical 19 year Moon cycle began on March 20, 2019.

In Father’s Heavenly Calendar, the New Year begins anywhere from early March to early April. The leaves are out, the flowers are blooming, and life is exploding forth all around us. Father starts his new year alive and in splendor. In his Word, Father Yah is called the father of lights.

Watch! Do not be deceived! The things associated with satan start with, and are associated with darkness. Not surprisingly, the world starts its day at midnight in complete darkness, and many others start their day at sunset (a Babylonian system) the beginning of night. Father starts his day at sunrise as the Sun’s light explodes forth showing to the world his magnificent glory each and every day.

Isaiah 40:25-26. Who will you compare Me to, or who is My equal? asks
Father Yah. Look up and see: who created these? He brings out the starry host (stars) by number; He calls all of them by name. Because of His great power and strength, not one of them is missing.

Father’s shows his spectacular glory each day and night in the firmament (heavens), a Godly Chorus of spiritual utterances:

Psalm 19:1-4 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard, their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world (BSB).

Incredibly, the Apostle Paul quotes from this same passage in Romans 10:18 to say that a person’s faith is rooted in Father’s Celestial Firmament of Heavenly Lights (ie: Father’s appointments of time); and no one is exempt from its accountability, because all can look up day and night and see them plainly!

Romans 10:17-18. So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of Father Yah. But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

Yes, all have indeed heard. But have all spiritually discerned Father’s heavenly road map, unlocking this intimacy with him?

King David longingly said:

Psalm 139:23-24. Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my concerns. See if there is any offensive way in me; lead me in the everlasting way.

Psalm 25:4-5 Make known to me your ways, Father Yah; teach me your paths. Guide me into your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; I hope in you all day long.

As you can see, today we actually need 2 calendars; one for worldly appointments, and one for Father’s festive appointments. At least the world’s Gregorian calendar is also based on a 7 day week, otherwise it would be very confusing. Remember, if your New Moon falls on a Gregorian calendar Monday, the following 4 Mondays will all be Father’s Sabbaths, regardless of what day of the month that Monday falls on the Gregorian calendar.

During creation, Father Yah designed the basis for calculating all his Holy Days (H4150- appointed times) uncomplicated and straightforward: written openly and clearly for all people to observe his signs in the heavens and count his days. They are interpreted completely with the Sun, Moon and Stars. The goal: to meet with his people on these appointed days, and have intimate fellowship with them. Also, that his people would weekly have a day of rest to maintain their physical and mental health.

Psalm 100:5. For Father Yah is good; His loving-commitment is everlasting, And His truth, to all generations.

Praise Father Yah!!

You need to read Deut 12 and 16, Hosea 8:11-14, and Isaiah 22:12-14. We are not allowed to be doing the feasts in captivity. We are to warn christians of breaking the 10 commandments not partying at the end of the world. Look at Daniel 10:1-4 fasting in Passover in captivity.

Read Enoch 80 and Jubilees 6 too. We are not going to figure out the calendar. It is for God to restore, not us. Our job is to find his sheep and not be the Ezekiel 34 evil shepherds. Otherwise you will be going into tribulation, and there you will realize you need to stop feasting and start preaching repentance to the apostate church.

Jubilees 6:
And all the children of Israel will forget and :point_right:will not​:point_left: find the path of the years, and will forget the new moons, and seasons, and sabbaths and they will go wrong as to all the order of the years.

Jubilees 49:
And they may not celebrate the passover in their cities, nor in any place save before the tabernacle of the Lord, or before His house where His name hath dwelt; and they shall not go astray from the Lord.

Ezekiel 33:6-7
[6]But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; :point_right:but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.
[7]So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.

Isaiah 1:13-17
[13]Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
[14]Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.
[15]And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: :point_right:your hands are full of blood.
[16]Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
[17]Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
