From the Back Cover
In Signs in the Sky Adrian Gilbert builds on the quest begun in his bestselling The Orion Mystery and Magi with a fascinating examination of biblical prophecy. Over twenty years of research into the archaeology and wisdom of ancient times has culminated in startling revelations of enormous significance for our own age.
The prophets of the ancient world, in their search for a fixed calendar on which to inscribe the dates of events far into the future, looked to the skies. In a world before electric light, the fixed and immutable firmament shone down on the earth; the revolution of the stars and progression of the constellations of the zodiac were means of measuring the passage of time more accurate and lasting than any of man's invention. As markers on this calendar the prophets set the great monuments and buildings of their era. The astrologically aligned pyramids record the progress of the years, counting down to the end of an age. As the proverb tells us, 'Man fears time, but time fears the pyramids.'
In a riveting archaeological detective story, Adrian Gilbert takes us back - from the wisdom of the ancients through the early Christian world and the geography of the Bible - on a quest to unlock the mysteries of the prophecies of the Old and New Testaments. The constellation of Orion, the figure of Man set in stars, has now arrived at its northernmost point - a journey that has taken nearly 13,000 years. At the same time, the summer-solstice sun, in the hand of Orion, is due to cross the eastern and western sky exactly over the Khafre pyramid. The belt of Orion is now rising over the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem; and on either side of the Orion constellation will be visible the seven planets of the ancients - the seven angels of prophecy. Could this be the Sign of the Son of Man in Heaven, described in the Book of Revelation as marking the beginning of the Apocalypse? It will not be long before we find out.
