The birth of Jesus, celestially

The concept surrounding the “Birth of Jesus” is an Egyptian concept. The birthplace of the Egyptian Messiah at the vernal equinox was vigured in “apt,” or “apta,” which means “the corner” or “apt” which is also said to be the name of the great mother; or and apta is also the name of the “crib” and “manger” or “womb,” where the child was said to be born in a manger; and this “apta” as “crib” or “manger” is the hieroglyphic sign of the solar birthplace. Thus the Egyptians exhibited the baby in the “crib” or “manger” in the streets of Alexandria. The birthplace was indicated by the great circle in the celestial sphere the equinox, as it passed from sign to sign. The star in the east also pointed it out. When the birthplace was in the sigh of the bull, Orion was the star that rose in the east to tell where the young sun-god was re-born. Hence it is called the “star of Horus.” That was then the star of the “Three Kings” who greeted the baby; for the “Three Kings” is still a name of the three stars in Orion’s belt. Here we learn that the legend of the “Three Kings” is at least 6,000 years old.
