Key points concerning the eclipse
1. A total solar eclipse occurs about every 18 months
2. However it has been 99 years prior to 2017 before a total solar eclipse crossed the entire USA.
3. However, to have this second eclipse that crosses that first making an X in the middle of the USA is completely unprecedented over the last two thousand years.
4. However, we have had 3 eclipses cross the USA in that time (2017, 2023 and 2024) and they have written a signature, Alpha and Omega, or better yet, the Hebrew “Aleph Tav”. There is no known precedent for this.
In science we feel is there is a 5% chance of something occurring then it could simply be chance, if the odds are greater than 1 in 20 (less than 5% chance) then we call that “significant”. In 30 years you would have 20 solar eclipses. What we are seeing here has not happened in the last 30,000 years, so instead of 1 in 20 the odds are greater than 1 in 20,000. Or less than 0.005% chance of happening. Therefore I conclude this is very significant.
So what is it saying?
1. These two eclipses intersect over a very small section of the US known as “little Egypt” — I suspect God is telling us something. In the ten plagues Egypt had 3 days of darkness and these two eclipses are two brief warnings of “days of darkness”.
2. The eclipse in 2017 went over seven cities in the US with the name Salem, which means peace and is the root word in Jerusalem. So we got seven warnings in 2017 of the sun not shining on “Peace” in the US. Perhaps that is a warning that we’ll have seven years of peace before the lights go out.
3. The eclipse in 2024 goes over 6 or 7 cities called “Nineveh”. Nineveh is the city that Jonah went to warn of coming judgement. Perhaps this is a warning of judgement in the US for 6-7 years. Some of these cities are not in the line of total eclipse but are bordering that line, so perhaps the judgement is not simply for the US but for our neighbors as well.
4. This eclipse in 2024 first crosses the US in a place called “Eagle Pass” that is where we now see a trucker protest concerning the US border. Perhaps this judgement begins there in the US.
5. Then the 2023 Eclipse and the 2024 eclipse intersect in a place called Uvalde, Texas. That is where we had a horrific school shooting at an elementary school. Perhaps that school shooting was a teaser for what the coming judgement will be like.
In Jewish thought the moon is one four hundredth the size of the sun, and it represents the Jewish nation in comparison to the Gentiles. Interestingly they estimate 16 million Jews on earth and 6.5 billion gentiles, indicating that there are 400x as many Gentiles and Jews. So then an eclipse of the Sun is a judgment on the Gentiles, an eclipse on the moon is a judgement on the Jews. Another interesting fact is that the letter “tav” in Hebrew is also equal to the number 400 and it means “sign”. So when the Bible says “let there be lights in the heavens for signs” it is saying let them be for “tav’s”. What makes this so interesting is that these two eclipses in 2017 and 2024 are making the letter Tav on the USA and this only works because the Sun is 400x further away from the Earth than the Moon. In other words God created the Sun, Moon and Stars so that these signs and particularly this Tav would be a sign for us today.

PROPHECY --CATASTROPHIC HOLOCAUST
Jeremiah 22:7-9 7 And I will prepare destroyers against thee, every one with his weapons: and they shall cut down thy choice cedars, and cast them into the fire. 8 And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbor, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto this great city? 9 Then they shall answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.
My son, write these words I give you, saith the LORD of Hosts. I HAVE TURNED THIS NATION OVER TO THE DESTROYERS, AND THEY WILL DESTROY ALL IN THIS NATION. I have blinded the eyes of the people, and I have brought the enemy into this land. They will be as locusts with stingers and will torment and slay the people. Much death and debauchery will cover the land. It will be called a CATASTROPHIC HOLOCAUST - for both people and property will be destroyed. The enemy is now in all the large cities, and soon the kick-off event will happen, and nothing will ever be the same.
My son, very few in My body see the events as CATASTROPHIC. Instead, they see the enemy as innocent who need help. This is a DECEPTION to deceive My children into believing a lie. The enemy is cunning and will stop at nothing to destroy you. They have no souls nor allegiance to any nation. They have ONE GOAL - to steal, kill, and destroy ALL that stand in their way. I say now - ARE YOU BRACED??
My son, because of the sin and idolatry of this nation and the lack of repentance, I have ALLOWED the destroyers to take this nation. The destroyers are in government, education, entertainment, religion, family, media, and business. These evil people have moved into My church and have polluted it and My Word, and turn the truth into a lie. Beware of wolves in sheep clothing - deceiving and being deceived. I will bring My hand against those who profane My Name and lead My children to destruction. REPENT NOW!
My son, very soon this nation will be SHAKEN UNLIKE ANY TIME IN HISTORY. Then will the destroyers be loosed upon a blind people. Soon My just judgment upon Mystery Babylon will be complete. This nation will burn with the fires of My indignation, and millions of people will pass into eternity. REPENT NOW! For this SHAKING will come in an instant, and many will not be ready. REPENT NOW! Turn to Me, for you may be standing before Me in the blink of an eye. REPENT NOW! Seek Me in all things and stay in My Word. I love you all, and I AM with you.
Amen. Lord Jesus

Here is a mystery written on the wall, can you interpret the meaning?
What do the following names being listed in this order in 2017 mean?
Donald -- He was the president at the time
St. Paul -- Perhaps a reminder that God can use less than the least
Mount Angel -- Perhaps a reference to many of the amazing signs we have seen
Salem -- Is this pointing to Trump declaring Jerusalem the capital of Israel and moving our embassy there?
Independence -- The United States has been one of the truly independent nations for the last two hundred years. Could this be a warning that God is going to take that away?
Jordan -- This is where Ammon and Moab were located and there are a number of prophecies in the Bible and particularly in Jeremiah that are yet to be fulfilled about what will happen to them
Lebanon -- This is where we saw a huge explosion in 2020 and where Hezbollah is located. Perhaps Jordan and Lebanon were pointing to the Psalm 83 war which we are currently witnessing in Israel
Berlin -- Capital of Germany, the major economy in the EU and the ones who made the Nordstream pipeline deal with Russia.
Mount Washington -- The capital of the USA, now known as "mystery, Babylon the Great". Formerly a swamp which is why Trump talks about "draining the swamp".
Geneva -- This is where the UN is located. Could it be a coincidence that Berlin, Washington and Geneva were all written in this order?
Madras -- Reference to India.
In 2017 a total solar eclipse crossed the US, these were the names of the cities in Oregon that were first crossed in the path of totality, beginning with Donald. Could they have meaning?

The River of the West
So the first state this eclipse passed over was Oregon, the river of the west in the Shoshoni language, and all the major players are listed. We have a modern day Cyrus in Donald Trump, we have the apostles with St. Paul, we have the angels, and we have the church, the heavenly Jerusalem.
And then we see judgement on the US losing its independence, on Jordan and Lebanon in the Psalm 83 war happening right now, and finally on Berlin, Washington, Geneva and India and the one world government they are trying to put together. You can also see that China is judged by omission. In 2017 everyone would have assumed China would be the major player and yet it seems they, like the Balrog in Tolkien's book falls into the abyss.
"The river of the West" is a reference to the Columbia gorge, no accident because that is the most dramatic and awe inspiring evidence of Noah's flood in the US. The idea that this flood is put in your face in the most dramatic fashion cannot be coincidental that this sign of the eclipse begins here.

The Gem of the Mountains
OK, well Oregon is just one state, what about the next state? Judgement begins with a reminder of Noah's flood, Donald Trump and the river of the west. From there is goes to "the gem of the mountains" which is the meaning of Idaho.
First judgement falls on
Unity -- We will see the "united" states get judged by becoming divided. The prophecies state that "the lone star" is the first star to fall off the flag.
Cairo -- The capital of Egypt is the next city in Idaho for the lights to go out.
Rebecca -- Isaac's bride and a type of the church being raptured. Eleazar comes to the Earth, depicting the Holy Spirit to bring a bride back to the Son in the good land.
These three make a group, the world will be judged as the Bride is raptured and the result will be a collapse of the union in the US. However, we'll see it begin with the threat of Civil war, threat of judgement on the world with wars, rumors of war, famines, pestilence, etc. and then the rapture will be the "black swan" event that causes the whole Jenga tower to collapse.
Alpha -- Yep, the next city is Alpha. The beginning of the end. Three days of darkness (Unity, Cairo and Rebecca) is the start of the tribulation prophesied in the revelation of John.
Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Washington Mill
Warrior Peak (East)
Warrior Peak (West)
Bugle mountain
These are the next four spots where the lights go out signaling judgment on the world. So once we have "alpha" the beginning the next thing we see is "the washington mill" a phrase often used for the MSM and their propaganda, we then see the warriors stand up and the bugle sound. In the Bible the bugle sounds to summon the congregation, direct movements of the camp, a battle cry, call to worship and announce the new moon. So this indicates the sides will have their respective calls to actions, you'll see the polarization of the wheat and tares, you will see people like Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson blowing the bugle.
The General
Mount Jordan
Ramshorn Mountain
Bayhorse
All four of these indicate the red horse of the apocalypse. Jesus is the Captain of our host. The Ramshorn is different from the Bugle in the Bible. The Ramshorn was the Shofar and was used to announce the coming of the Lord and was used for warfare as in the battle of Jericho where the walls fell.
Sheep Mountain -- This is next, the Lord is the good shepherd and will rescue the sheep.
Triumph -- This is the last spot in the Gem of the Mountains.
Whereas the River of the West gave us an overview of the coming judgement hearkening back to Noah, the Gem of the mountains reminds us of the pearl of great worth that the Lord will come as a thief in the night to take as a mighty warrior.

On the Great Plain
Wyoming means at the great plains or on the great plain.
The solar eclipse first hits "Atomic city" and concludes with "Mount Cross". At this point we are in the seven year tribulation and it begins with a bang, atomic bombs in cities. It concludes with the cross of Christ crucifying the flesh and the world. However, the towns are called "Ammon" and "France".
Next we have McCain Guard, a very famous prisoner of War who was a leader of the RINOs (a term referring to those who are Republican in name only). You have Ramshorn and Sheep mountain after that indicating that we have both those who are the "Christians in name only", nominal believers and not genuine believers as well as the left behind saints.
After that we have Lost Eagle indicating the US has fallen as a nation, and then Desolation Peak indicating the situation in the US after the major cities are nuked, and then "the fortress" indicating the cities of refuge that the Lord covers and protects. Finally we come to the two mountains, Mount Victor and Mount Cross, referring to those who overcome the evil one by the word of their testimony and they loved not their life unto death. The tribulation saints who refuse the mark of the beast and are martyred.
A list of these locations is from The Great American Writing on the Wall by AC Katz, I am interpreting the meaning of these places.

Shallow Water
Nebraska means shallow water. This reminds us of a story of a prophet who gets into the water, at first it is shallow, but it gets deeper and deeper until eventually it is over his head. New believers and those left behind will now be in "shallow water".
Berea -- we start here, the bereans were more noble because they examined the word to see if these things were so. Those left behind ignored the word or were asleep or in some other way were not that serious about it, however, after all these things take place they begin again and this time they are Bereans, examining the word to see if these things are so.
Alliance -- This is the big event in the world, they respond to catastrophe by all rallying around the Antichrist and making an alliance. The One world government.
Antioch -- At the same time the Christians begin to form small home meetings and refuge cities. Antioch was the first place in the book of Acts where believers were called Christians, indicating that they were expressing Jesus Christ.
Cairo -- This is now the second time that the lights have gone out over the capital of the world. Darkness descends as the Antichrist is revealed.
St. Paul -- Here we have Paul mentioned again, along with the Antichrist we have the two witnesses, and remember, they are witnessing that Jesus is Lord and the Bible is the word of God.
Geneva -- Again, we have the city where the UN is headquartered indicating the one world government. Two or three witnesses are required to confirm every word, we have two witnesses that there will be judgement on the world and judgement on this one world government.
Hebron -- This is the mountain where the fallen angels came to. When the manchild is raptured to the heavens Satan and his angels are cast out. This is going to be a terrifying time for unbelievers. If you believe in Jesus you are sealed with the Holy Spirit of the promise and the fallen angels cannot touch you.
Mount Gilead -- This is where Laban made a peace treaty with Jacob. Song of Songs describes the woman's hair as being like "goats on the sides of Mount Gilead". Hair is given to a woman for a head covering, her father is given to her for a head covering and her husband is given to her as a head covering. Laban and Jacob were "goats". Any woman can submit to a husband that is a shining white knight on a beautiful stallion, but these women (Leah and Rachel) were submitting themselves to a husband that was a goat. That is the most beautiful head covering. The situation now for Christians will not be rich, and glorious. You will be submitting to a goat of a husband, but that is the path to salvation.
Alexandria -- This is considered Egypt's second capital. Antichrist will use every form of deception he can so that if possible he can deceive even the elect. Same lump of cheese in a different wrapping paper. In the NT Apollos was born in Alexandria. Apollos distorted the gospel and he is named after the Greek god that refers to the Antichrist.
Crete -- This is where Paul's ship was shipwrecked. It seems like it is bad news, but in reality God changes the death water to wine. Paul heals the people of the island, he saves everyone on the ship alive, the people on the island give them a new boat and they ride on to Rome victorious.
Palmyra -- meanwhile Palmyra was where the arch of Baal was indicating the worship of Baal. This arch has been placed in an auspicious spot in Washington DC indicating they have descended into Baal worship and have become the Great Babylon. This next stop of the eclipse indicates God's judgement on the Baal worship.
St. Mary -- The next city is a clear reference to the Catholic church and the "Queen of Heaven" which was also part of the Babylonian worship.
Syracuse -- The city in Sicily where Paul landed. Any city that ends in "cuse" in the US has a salt mine. Believers are to be the "salt of the earth". Salt was used to preserve food, kill germs and was also used as fertilizer.
Salem -- now we come to "peace". This does not mean "the absence of war, it means that Jesus is our peace. If you have faith that He is the King of Kings and our savior then you follow Him in peace regardless of what the enemy threatens to do.
Troy -- A famous city in the Illiad and the Odyssey of Homer. This is where we get "trojan horse" from. Expect the Antichrist to employ this deceit. In this deceit the enemy feigns surrender and gives a big gift. When you bring that gift into the city it will destroy you from within.
St. Joseph -- Again, a reference to the Catholic church indicating who might be involved in this trojan horse, but also we are seeing Mary and Joseph in "shallow water" indicating the word of God being incarnated into these new, born again believers.
King City
Paradise
Liberty -- These are the next three spots. The city of the great King is a reference to Jerusalem and particularly the Jerusalem which is above, which is our mother. Paradise is where the thief who believed in Jesus went after being crucified. Liberty is a word for freedom. This indicates the believers who hold to Jesus as King, are martyred by the Antichrist and in death are free.
Independence -- This is a reference to those who are not joined to Jesus, they trust in themselves. In the US people have been raised to think we should all be independent. Well this will turn into a cruel mockery. Once you take the mark of the beast there will be no independence and no salvation. You will be joined to Satan and joined to his eternal damnation.

That is the most beautiful head covering. The situation now for Christians will not be rich, and glorious. You will be submitting to a goat of a husband, but that is the path to salvation.
Alexandria -- This is considered Egypt's second capital. Antichrist will use every form of deception he can so that if possible he can deceive even the elect. Same lump of cheese in a different wrapping paper. In the NT Apollos was born in Alexandria. Apollos distorted the gospel and he is named after the Greek god that refers to the Antichrist.
Crete -- This is where Paul's ship was shipwrecked. It seems like it is bad news, but in reality God changes the death water to wine. Paul heals the people of the island, he saves everyone on the ship alive, the people on the island give them a new boat and they ride on to Rome victorious.
Palmyra -- meanwhile Palmyra was where the arch of Baal was indicating the worship of Baal. This arch has been placed in an auspicious spot in Washington DC indicating they have descended into Baal worship and have become the Great Babylon. This next stop of the eclipse indicates God's judgement on the Baal worship.
St. Mary -- The next city is a clear reference to the Catholic church and the "Queen of Heaven" which was also part of the Babylonian worship.
Syracuse -- The city in Sicily where Paul landed. Any city that ends in "cuse" in the US has a salt mine. Believers are to be the "salt of the earth". Salt was used to preserve food, kill germs and was also used as fertilizer.
Salem -- now we come to "peace". This does not mean "the absence of war, it means that Jesus is our peace. If you have faith that He is the King of Kings and our savior then you follow Him in peace regardless of what the enemy threatens to do.
Troy -- A famous city in the Illiad and the Odyssey of Homer. This is where we get "trojan horse" from. Expect the Antichrist to employ this deceit. In this deceit the enemy feigns surrender and gives a big gift. When you bring that gift into the city it will destroy you from within.
St. Joseph -- Again, a reference to the Catholic church indicating who might be involved in this trojan horse, but also we are seeing Mary and Joseph in "shallow water" indicating the word of God being incarnated into these new, born again believers.
King City
Paradise
Liberty -- These are the next three spots. The city of the great King is a reference to Jerusalem and particularly the Jerusalem which is above, which is our mother. Paradise is where the thief who believed in Jesus went after being crucified. Liberty is a word for freedom. This indicates the believers who hold to Jesus as King, are martyred by the Antichrist and in death are free.
Independence -- This is a reference to those who are not joined to Jesus, they trust in themselves. In the US people have been raised to think we should all be independent. Well this will turn into a cruel mockery. Once you take the mark of the beast there will be no independence and no salvation. You will be joined to Satan and joined to his eternal damnation.
A list of these locations is from The Great American Writing on the Wall by AC Katz, I am interpreting the meaning of these places.
