               In Capricorn we see a repeat of the promise in Virgo that a seed would come forth who would save
               mankind from their sins. The seed in Virgo’s hand signifies that grain of wheat that must fall into the
               ground and die that it might bear much fruit. The parallel is observed in the sacrificial goat of
               Capricorn whose death gives rise to a great multitude of the redeemed signified by the tail of the fish.

               The three decans of Capricorn are Sagitta (the Arrow), Aquila (the Eagle), and Delphinus (the
               Dolphin).





















               Aquarius


               Aquarius is a Latin name meaning “the pourer forth of water.” The brightest star is located in the right
               shoulder  and  is  called  Sa’ad  Al  Melik,  meaning  “record  of  the  outpouring.”  The  next  star  in
               brightness is Al Sund, “the pourer out.” A star in the urn bears the Egyptian name Mon, or Meon,
               being interpreted “the urn.” It is not difficult to find in the Scriptures references to Christ and the
               pouring forth of water. When Yahshua encountered the woman of Samaria at the well, He said, “If
               you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked
               Him,  and  He  would  have given you  living  water” (John  4:10). In  another place He stated the
               following.


               John 7:37-38
               “If any man is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said,
               ‘From his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water.’”


               Significantly, in many zodiacal depictions, the fish of Piscis Australis (the Southern Fish, also called
               Piscis Austrinus) is depicted as swimming in the streams of water being poured forth from the
               constellation Aquarius. It is remarkable that there is so much correspondence between the signs in
               the heavens, and the prophetic imagery of the Bible. Once one understands that both the terrestrial
               Scriptures, and the heavenly prophecy have the same Author, it no longer seems surprising to find the
               same messages in both of them. Isaiah once again provides a parallel to the sign in the stars.
