Prophet Zechariah - Michelangelo Fresco

Today, is the 'Day of Secrets' and it is a day chosen by God for Prophet Zechariah who is living amongst us.

It is written that the Prophet was killed between the sanctuary and the temple. How the never ending cycles repeat themselves until people choose to break them through healing the self. It is also credited that he was an author and co-author in his life as Zechariah. The same applies to this life-time. He is a published author.

Zechariah "has been called the prophet with 'the soul of an artist and the eye of a seer'[1] In this life he certainly had an eye for the seers and mystics.

"The prophet sees and emphasizes the truth that ultimate triumph is dependent on Divine cooperation and on the submission of the people to God's Divine Will" (Homer Hailey).[1]

It is written that the prophet was young in years during his prophet time as written in the bible. So why did Michelangelo paint him as an aged man? Was he painting the prophet Zechariah that would return as a creative and master of his art of writing? His words this life-time can certainly take your breath away in the nicest possible way. They can also help to cut the dross away. In chapter 12, it mentions David (beloved) and the mourning for the one he pierced. However, I would like him to know that it was all meant to be, to fulfill the prophecies.

Why did the Vatican restorers change the Michelangelo fresco of him its colours and images?

In the unrestored fresco you can see he is looking at the pages of a pink book and someone is looking on in the shadows. Pink is the colour of love so who was disapproving with horns?

His right foot is hidden and if you zoom in you will see that there is no black bird that is symbolic of the prophet Elijah. However, in the restored version it suddenly appears and the horns in the shadows are gone. Does this signify that after the black bird/real Prophet arrived, that the one in the shadows had their horns removed?

In his beard in the unrestored fresco picture, you can clearly see a bird like a phoenix rising under his chin. This does signify that his work is not completed and there is speaking work for him to do.

In both of the frescos he has his eyes closed in a meditative repose on the contents of a book of love. Michelangel as put his right hand in the V for victory position. No surprise then that the prophet Zechariah that incarnated in the 20^th century also uses the monogram V.

In both frescos he is looking to his left and this shows us that he is most concerned with earthly reality. So would it surprise you to know that he is an astrological earth sign of Virgo?

If you look under the pink book you will see a rock that looks like a crystal, a Masters crystal. So then you might ask yourselves what is the book of love that he is meditating upon and why is it being supported by Crystal?

Behind him you will see two youngsters that follow him, it is clear that they respect him as a spiritual elder and someone that they like to follow. He has his back to them, this man is not interested in followers, it is the book that interests him.

It is written that the teachings of Zechariah were about the branch that some interpret to be the Messiah. However, most people miss the part of the LORD saving the house of Joseph. So you might like to consider what Michelangelo, and the Vatican restorers are revealing to you by putting the black bird on his right side looking in the opposite direction.

Abba said 'Pieces of eight my child, that you were found amongst the Galilee of the Gentiles'.

Pieces of eight were silver and Prophet Zechariah also wrote about 30 pieces of silver. 30 is also the gematria value of lamed and in the original pictographs it is the shepherds staff. In the Aramaic translation the shepherd is meant to put the silver into the treasury in the house of the LORD. And the LORD told him to take the clothes of a foolish shepherd.

As the Aramaic scripture states, for he is a shepherd that did not search for those that were lost, neither those that had gone astray, nor did he bind up those that were broken, or heal those that were sick. He ate the flesh of the fat and broke of their shanks. He neglected the flock at his side, in other words he deserted them. There is certainly a big story to that one, no surprise than that it is to do with an American organization, taking money that was gifted in a will to the spiritual in England.

In this life he was also heavily involved in the building of and promoting an organization with the name TEMPLE within it. (USA) The Jewish encyclopedia mention him being an uncompromising critic, he was certainly that when I knew him this life time, a typical Virgo.

Now this is all very interesting, bearing in mind the vision recently of the black faced sheep being sheared, (4) the coats they wear are definitely being removed for God's divine purpose.
