Dear Friends,

I began a new module Speaking of Angels, and Mars is the subject of tonight's lecture. Why Mars? There is a mystery with Mars, and here is what I know about it. It is associated with the tradition that Lucifer is fallen angel. But Mars is not associated with Lucifer and that is a riddle. I will not attempt to explain it here as a fact, but as something that points to something else. Lucifer is traditionally associated with Venus. But at rare times, Mars can appear in the place of Venus. We sill explore this subject tonight and discover the shadow of the old angel in the present time.
Here is a table of the star events this year. It will be for the course 143 on Lucifer What's He Doing Now.
The inspiration is based on the idea to cut loose from Lucifer (everyone does actually) and get free. That's what this course is all about.
Mars is traditionally the god of war, so it makes perfect sense in the light of modern events to take a new fresh look at this Lucifer-Mars connection. Below are some dates for observation.
Mars in 2026
How to see Mars in the sky: Once Mars emerged into the morning sky (late February 2026 for Southern Hemisphere, April or May 2026 for the Northern Hemisphere), it was shining fairly brightly, but not brightly enough to be noticeable. Mars will hang – reddish, somber, not very bright – in the eastern predawn sky for many months of 2026. As the year progresses, Mars will start to brighten and move higher in the sky. Earth will again be catching up to Mars in the race of the planets. And, as a result, Mars will be shifting over into our evening sky. By the time Mars passes close to Jupiter – around November 15, 2026 – it’ll be a sight to behold near the giant planet!
Next opposition for Mars will be February 19, 2027. Mars will be in front of Leo the Lion at its 2027 opposition.
Next Mars-Earth closest distance will be February 20, 2027. Mars will be about 63 million miles (101 million km) from Earth on that date. Hence 2027 is what’s known as an aphelic opposition of Mars. That is, the planet will reach its aphelion, or farthest point from the sun, on March 2, 2027. So Mars will be about as far from Earth as it can be at this 2027 opposition. Note: Mars reaches opposition about every 26 months, or about every two Earth years.
