The Declaration of Independence of the United States occurred by design (not an accident) to coincide with the helical rising of the star Sirius. In other words, the star Sirius was rising on the horizon at the same time the Sun was rising in the east. (See my previous note, George Washington Obsession with Virgins, regarding the importance of rising planets or stars with the Sun.)
It's widely known that George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson were astrologers. Washington pasted planetary rising information from an almanac in his diary for 13 years. Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanac proves his astrological predilections. Jefferson's contribution to start the Library of Congress included many books of astrological significance.
Washington and Franklin are proven Masons. Jefferson, while not proven, is considered to be a Mason based on his writings and ideas which reek of Masonic overtones. Franklin and Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. If you know the history of this document then you realize that the actually Declaration (verbal agreement) occurred on July 2, 1776. This is confirmed by the writings of John Adams:
"The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epoca, in the History of America. -- I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. (From a letter by John Adams to his wife dated July 3, 1776.)"
"Of course, John Adams was to be disappointed, and it is the supposed signing of the Declaration of Independence two days later which is now the "great anniversary Festival."
On July 4th, the document was signed ONLY by the president of Congress and the secretary. It would be weeks before the rest of the signers would affix their names to the Declaration of Independence.
"On that day, Congress agreed to the wording of the Declaration, and it was then signed by the president of Congress, John Hancock, who was a Mason, and the secretary of Congress, Charles Thompson. This signed declaration was nothing more than a partial ratification of something which had already been agreed--it was not itself a declaration of independence, but a formal presentation of a declaration now promulgated for the benefit of the world."
"The Mason who first signed the Declaration of Independence would have been aware of the particular significance of July 4, as a cosmic event. The day was the second in the so-called dog days, which according to some American almanacs, began on July 3. This traditional knowledge is no longer recalled with the same intensity as in the 19th century, but the majority of almanacs and planetary tables used them in both England and America all marked July 3 as the beginning of this important period."
"The term "dog days" is usually trace back to the Greek-derived canicular days, relating to the heliacal rising of the fixed star Sirius. However, historians are usually more inclined to trace the word back to the ancient Egyptian calendrical system, where its rising with the Sun was held to be of profound spiritual importance......This connection with the dog star Sirius is so important that we must assume that whichever Mason elected this date for laying the foundation stone which was to form the spiritual hum of the city knew exactly what he was doing."
"On July 2 1776.....the Sun was in 11.22 Cancer, which meant that it was in the same degree as Sirius."
"We see from this that those Americans who were interested in astronomy at the time of the Declaration would have recognized that on July 2, 1776, the Sun was only 12 minutes away from Sirius: technically, in spite of a few minutes' difference, the Sun was definitely "conjunct Sirius," in astrological parlance."
My own calculations differ mathematically but the results are essentially the same. If you look at the two chart cast that I cast (Declaration of Independence Verbal and Declaration of Independence Written) you will see that Sirius was 10 degrees 59 minutes in Cancer on both days. The Sun on the Verbal day was at 10 degrees 54 minutes , only 4 minutes away from serious. The Sun on the Written day was at 12 degrees 49 minutes. Clearly the Sun moved away from conjunction with Sirius on this day.
"....we can begin to see how important Sirius really is within arcane Masonic circles - not merely because it was a star of prime importance to the Masons, but also because it was linked with Masonic symbolism in such a simple-seeming device as a key."
"The blazing star of the Masons is a symbol of an accessible Heaven. It is equated with the sacred key, which can unlock the mysteries of Heaven, Earth and Hell."
This key can be found in any Masonic ritual...but is not easily found or understood.
