Greetings Reasoningtime,
The "mix" of Christianity and Mysticism/Astronomy has been so from the beginning. In fact, all religious and spiritual teachings are founded on cosmological principles.
The heavens are God’s “handiwork” (Psalm 8:3; 19:1). He has all the stars numbered and named (Psalm 147:4).
God used the stars as an illustration of His promise to give Abraham an innumerable seed (Genesis 15:5). Thus, every time Abraham looked up at the night sky, he had a reminder of God’s faithfulness and goodness. The final judgment of the earth will be accompanied by astronomical events relating to the stars (Isaiah 13:9-10; Joel 3:15; Matthew 24:29).
The Son of God is the Sun of God
Holy Bible comes from the greek word Helios Biblos which means Sun Book (Helios=sun) (Biblos=book).
o The sun “dies” for three days on December 22nd, the winter solstice, when it stops in its movement south, to be born again or resurrected on December 25th, when it resumes its movement north.
o In some areas, the calendar originally began in the constellation of Virgo, and the sun would therefore be “born of a Virgin.”
o The sun is the “Light of the World.”
o The sun “cometh on clouds, and every eye shall see him.”
o The sun rising in the morning is the “Savior of mankind.”
o The sun wears a corona, “crown of thorns” or halo.
o The sun changes water into wine by creating rain, ripening the grape on the vine and fermenting the grape juice.
o The sun “walks on water.”
o The sun’s “followers,” “helpers” or “disciples” are the 12 months and the 12 signs of the zodiac or constellations, through which the sun must pass.
o The sun at 12 noon is in the house or temple of the “Most High”; thus, “he” begins “his Father’s work” at “age” 12.
o The sun enters into each sign of the zodiac at 30°; hence, the “Sun of God” begins his ministry at “age” 30.
o The sun is hung on a cross or “crucified,” which represents its passing through the equinoxes, the vernal equinox being Easter, at which time it is then resurrected.
