Hi Slueth:
I was just thinking of January 6th and the importance of this date in the Christian faith, called the Epiphany especially in ancient days.
And you are correct of course, it's about the Magi, a date set aside in the ancient calenders to remember them and their discovery of the Christ child.
This date was also brought to my mind yesterday and the day prior when the Coptic Church in Alexandria was bombed while a mass was going on with at least 1,000 people inside of the church. Many died and many wounded.
The President of Egypt is putting extra security now for their Christmas Eve church celebrations,
which falls on January 6th.

<May we hear Peace prevails in Egypt and the 10% minority in the future there , or the Christians can find a modicum of peace in their lives in their enviornment.
I love visiting Egypt myself
and have traveled there 4 times thus far,hoping to return to see Alexandria and stay there. So it was with much sadness to hear of this.
All the people are for the most part wonderful en masse,
and get along quite well with each other, It's only the tiniest of percentage that are the radical element.
"
May there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me " as the children's song goes.........as Peace starts
from "within" and until people understand this, and
examine their own selves more carefully and
their thoughts, the world will always remain akin to outer blasts, just as the inner ones reflect in the Collective. Each and every person actually makes up the collective, so we all play a monumental role, imo.

BTW: I have a ready chart (natal chart with no tob) for one of the Magi (reincarnated in this century past)
acccording to Edgar Cayce who died rather young either accidentally or an unsolved murder.
I don't like to post things that not be warranted or approved however by the Moderator.
This man was told he had been a Magi in that experience, and as such, was quite the mathematician (a natural) in this one.
Happy Holidays to all.
