All the ancients observed 7 moving objects/wanderers (Greek: planets) in the heavens (listed in this order): Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. This explains why the #7 was sacred worldwide to the ancients, i.e. the recurring theme of #7 in the Bible starting with Genasis 1:1/Bereshit 1:1 in its original Hebrew being 7 words and the 7 Days of Creation Story. (Bereshit 1:1 is 28[7x4] letters and there are 4 lunar phases each roughly 7 days [~7.4 days] each.)
In doing research this morning on the 7 Classical Planets / 7 Sacred Planets / 7 Planets of the Ancients / 7 Luminaires / 7 Heavens / 7 Governors, I came across the following link. It could be better, but check it out. Also see wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_Planets and www.planetnarnia.com/planet-narnia/the-seven-heavens .

Throughout the Bible, from Genasis to Revelation…… the number 7 features prominently. From the seven creative days of Genasis to the seven seals, seven trumpets and seven bowls of judgment in the last book of the Bible - the Book of Revelation. (Revelation meaning revealing, the word apocalypse also means 'uncovering'.) The #7 saturates Scripture.
The above pictured menorah774 also has 7 branches. Why 7 and what do they represent? And why does the Bible assign such importance to them? According to Clement of Alexandria and Philo Judaeus, they represent the 7 planets also called the 7 Classical Planets.

The 7 Planets of the Ancients / 7 Luminaires / 7 Governors / 7 Heavens.
It took me a while to get used to this concept, 7 planets affecting us down here on the earth? And two of them aren’t even planets! If you don’t know the 7 planets of the ancients already, in fact you do already know them; they are all contained in the days of the week. Each day is named after one of the 7 planets of ancient times.
Monday is named after the moon (moonday, see, not even a planet). In French, Monday is called Lundi, where we get lunar from and lunacy.
Tuesday is Mardi in French (think of Mardi Gras, Fat Tuesday); Mardi is Mars Day. In English its called Tuesday, named after Tyr. Tyr is the god of combat….and linked to the god Mars (the god of war)…….because Tyr is Mars as seen through the cultural lens of the Norse folk.!
Mars also gives us the name of the month of March! Why is March named after Mars?…..well March is the month that starts off the sign of Aries….and as all astrologers know….the planet Mars rules the sign of Aries!
The only thing different about them is the fact that various cultures talk about the same concept/force in their own unique manner.
Mars is the god of war, because again….Mars is Tyr…they are natural forces/energies/influences!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C3%BDr
Wednesday in French is Mercredi (Mercury day) or Wodan’s day.
Wodan/Odin/Wotan is Mercury. Mercury is also Thoth of the Egyptians, and Hermes of the Greeks.
Thursday is Thor’s day, or in French Jeudi, named after Jupiter (Jupiters day)
Thor is Jupiter,he is also Zeus,againall the same influence or force.
Friday is Vendredi in French, named after Venus, and Venus in Norse is Freya or Frigg! Venus is also Astarte, Ishtar and Aphrodite, all feminine forces,not because the cultures copied each other,but rather they personified a natural force of nature through their own cultural lens.
Saturday is named after Saturn (Saturn’s day).In french it is Samedi,Sam is connected with Saturn.
And finally we arrive at Sunday,named after the sun of course (again…not a planet).
Now we have the magnificent seven!
1/Moon, 2/Mars, 3/Mercury, 4/Jupiter, 5/Venus, 6/Saturn, 7/Sun
As said before, each of the planets is really an “influence” an “energy” or “concept” symbolized by each planet. for instance “martial” law comes from mars the god of war the atmosphere of combat/war was symbolised by the “god” mars to the ancients in a war between two sides…the god mars is in the midst of it….division….boisterous energy/combat
I would like to stress this point however ………….each planet..or god….. has a good influence….and a bad influence so the planet mars has good energies also….think of the boisterous energy of a crowd at a concert the word “mercurial” comes from the planet mercury and means animated/lively/sprightly/quick witted the god mercury has wings on his feet….because he is the messenger of the gods in Greek he is called hermes in Egyptian he is called thoth……or “thought”
Mercury is thought….he is the messenger of the gods…and rules the nervous system in the body….(all the planets rule a system in the body)
when you stub your toe….mercury carries the message to the brain to let you know……instantly!!
www.google.co.uk/search?q=rules+the+nervous+system&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=rcs&gfe_rd=cr&ei=AXWNU7HqLozR8gezg4CwCQ#channel=rcs&q=mercury+rules+the+nervous+system&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
this is what the planet means…..its a concept/energy/influence
lots of courier firms are named after this planet…..hermes….mercury….gemini….(mercury rules the sign of gemini)
www.google.co.uk/search?q=mercury+rules+the+sign+of+gemini&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=rcs&gfe_rd=cr&ei=P0SOU-a9BabR8gfrpoHgAg
the sign gemini….(important!…ruled by mercury) is involved with communication and travel
again…the apostle paul took a ship from malta with the figurehead of castor and pollux on it……(castor and pollux are the twins of gemini…..the dioscuri……ruled by mercury….travel and communication)
biblehub.com/acts/28-11.htm
however…mercury is also the magician………trickster…and the god of thieves
jupiter is jove/zeus/thor/vulcan…they are all the same god or energy/influence….where you get jovial and jehovah from……..he is the greater benefic in astrology….
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefic_planet
venus is the planet of love…or desire…..however you can always have too much of a good thing!
hence some poor unfortunates get “venereal” disease from their desire…the word “venereal” comes from venus
“saturnine”….. meaning gloomy/sombre/bad tempered….. comes from saturn
this is the role saturn “plays” ……..the colour black is saturns colour
think of funerals/courts/churches………and the connection to the colour black….that is the saturnian influence
serious……sombre…ritualistic
but he does have a good side……christmas is also saturnalia….and christmas is party time…time for some revelry (saturn is the god of revelry)
saturday night is party night of the week…..saturday night fever…..the saturnine influences are there
from funerals……..to saturday night….you have both sides of saturns energies….and they are extremes!
saturn is old father time/the ancient of days in the bible…the one with the long white beard
he is also the grim reaper…with his scythe…or sickle….he is the god of agriculture….he harvests souls
however…….dont fear the reaper……he’s only doing his job!….its a dirty job……but someone’s gotta do it!
blue oyster cult had the song…”dont fear the reaper”…….think they were talking about saturn?
the song came from this album….agents of fortune
cover_1456161332010
notice where his finger is pointing on the album cover….that is a symbol of saturn or kronos
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_%C3%96yster_Cult
scroll down on the above wiki page to “band name and logo” to confirm its a symbol of saturn
back to the planets……..
what about the sun?……mr sunny himself…….the light…..the messiah….the christ
when the sun shines you notice dirt….you see dust in the air all around you…it shows up everything….it reveals things that are hidden
the moon is “female”…….she is adorned in white…she reflects her husbands (the sun) light..she is linked to water and emotions…….the moon affects the tides on earth
well…….these are the magnificent seven
we can see them hidden in the scriptures…again…just under the surface
here’s an example
revelation 1:12
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden lampstands
here we have the number 7 mentioned
next……… john describes someone like a “son of man” in the midst of the seven
13 and in the midst of the seven lampstands one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girt about the breasts with a golden girdle. 14 His head and his hairs were white like white wool, as the snow, and his eyes were as a flame of fire 15 and his feet like unto brilliant metal as if they burned in a furnace and his voice as the sound of many waters. 16 And he had in his right hand seven stars, and out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword, and his countenance was as the sun when it shines in its strength.
do you see the 7 planets mentioned above from these scriptures?
you will………..only if you know what you are looking for
this is from page 186 in the webpage below quoting “the secret teachings of all ages” by manly palmer hall
its talking about the description of the logos figure above
www.sacred-texts.com/eso/sta/sta46.htm
in my copy it is on page 610
“The Logos-figure described is a composite picture of the seven sacred planets: he has the snowy-white hair of Kronos (‘Father Time’), the blazing eyes of ‘wide-seeing’ Zeus, the sword of Ares, the shining face of Helios, and the chiton and girdle of Aphrodite; his feet are of mercury, the metal sacred to Hermes, and his voice is like the murmur of the ocean’s waves (the ‘many waters’), alluding to Selene, the Moon-Goddess of the four seasons and of the waters.”
kronos is another name for saturn
saturn is old father time…or the “ancient of days”…..
zeus is thor is jupiter…
the sword of ares…….ares is the greek name for mars
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ares
the areopagus is also called mars hill…where the apostle paul gave a famous sermon
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Areopagus
www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+17%3A22-23&version=ESV
helios is the sun
heliopolis means city of the sun….another name for heliopolis was the city of “on”
light manifests when we switch a light “on”…..
www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/judaica/ejud_0002_0008_0_08706.html
aphrodite is venus is ishtar
mercury is hermes is thoth
selene is diana…is dinah…..is artemis…..is the moon
seven planets in one place in the scriptures……you can see them throughout the scriptures…..when you get eyes to see them
also each of the seven wonders of the ancient world are each named after one of the planets
www.howarddavidjohnson.com/7wonders.htm
here’s an interesting talk on saturn and its influences
I can't recommend this enough…this guy explains things better than I could ever do
once you get the pattern and know what to look for ……you will see these planets (or gods) all throughout the bible, for instance in the book of ezekiel…..there is a man with a writing case at his side
biblehub.com/ezekiel/9-2.htm
now what planet or god is connected with writing and communication? what planet is the psychopomp? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopomp
check the caption belonging to the picture in the above wiki page to see what planet or god is the psychopomp……

and he puts a mark on the head of all those sighing and groaning over the things happening on the earth
what is the mark?
biblehub.com/commentaries/ezekiel/9-4.htm
and again…the mark is connected to a planet…what planet?
symboldictionary.net/?p=2047
and why are they there?………..more to come in later blogs
they are all there in the bible….you just need to see the pattern……and you will see them all over the pages
in later blogs………we will go into more detail about each of the planets as they “star” in the allegories all through the bible along with the zodiac signs
