MARS-JUPITER CONJUNCTION + METEORS: Set your alarm. Mars and Jupiter are having a close encounter in the early morning sky, and they are exquisitely beautiful if you catch them surounded by the first glow of dawn. Look almost straight up around 5:00-5:30 am local time:
Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 is the world’s largest and sole operating 4-8-8-4 articulated steam locomotive. It was built in 1941 to haul massive freight trains across the steep grades of the Wasatch Mountains between Ogden, Utah, and Cheyenne, Wyoming in support of the WWII and post-war freight boom.
Union Pacific restored No. 4014 to operational condition in May 2019 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Golden Spike ceremony at completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869. Big Boy No. 4014 passes this way on an annual exhibition tour. It was a wonder to see and hear it close-up shortly after I moved here in 2022.
The Union Pacific Line runs through SE Kansas with a rail station less than 2 miles from my home. Every morning, like clockwork, trains are blowing their whistles at 2:00 AM CT, and making a racket as they disengage/engage their rail cars for the next leg of a journey.
Another local classic across the Oklahoma state line is Jana Jae. Jana Jae is an American country-western and bluegrass fiddler known as the “Queen of Country Fiddle”, famous for her signature blue fiddle. She began playing the violin at age two and a half on an 1/8-size instrument. Her parents were violin students at the Juilliard School, and her maternal grandfather was a traditional country fiddler.
“Orange Blossom Special” is a 1938 bluegrass fiddle standard written by Ervin T. Rouse that serves as Jana Jae’s signature career-launching showpiece. I was lucky to attend one of her performances years ago in Oklahoma. She played the song moving the fiddle across the bow held by an audience member that she’d called to the stage.
The Tree of Life keeps reaching to hold its place in the Light
The Sun’s Light raises life on Earth born through Water. The Light of the Son raises our Spirit to eternal life reborn through the body and blood of the Savior. A willing sacrifice of Love created the Truth and the Way for us to follow.
Movement is the first and last sign of Life. Our Spirit requires the perpetual movement of change to ascend the gravitational forces of Earth.
When we stop moving. life ceases to have meaning. When we are born again, we are moved by the Light of the Father and the Son.
Earth maintains its movement by the geomagnetic attraction from the core of its being. Spirit maintains its movement by the Light of Faith at the center of a Sanctuary within.
Prayer is an Unseen but Real movement that can carry out the Creator’s Highest Mission of Love. The Holy Spirit shares a reason to keep moving by Faith in our prayers until our dying day.
John 14:20 KJV
20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
The planetary alignment in November 2026 brings Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter together before sunrise during November 13–22. This four-planet parade is best viewed from the Northern Hemisphere. November 14 is a good date to see the planets in a relatively compact arrangement, while November 20–22 offers better conditions for spotting Mercury. All four planets are bright enough to be seen with the naked eye, although Mercury will be tricky to find.
Mercury turned Direct on Friday, November 13, 2026. The fast-moving planet of Communication is covering old territory again after retrograde motion. Venus turns direct tonight, November 14, 2026 with the power of Love to regain lost ground. Mars, the planet of war stokes the fires of passion. Jupiter added some good luck to Friday the 13th and beyond. With Mercury hard-to-see, we may have to look more closely to see the Truth. Sometimes “good luck” comes in disguise.
On Friday the 13th air traffic came to a full-stop in the USA, blaming technical issues with tracking systems. It may have looked like “bad luck” if you were stuck in an airport. Though, the Truth may have been “good luck” in disguise.
Exodus 33:20 KJV
20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
The Light of the Sun is too bright for Human eyes to see and live. God gave us Time to process the Truth. In our Highest State of Consciousness we realize we are One.
John 14:20 NIV
20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. 21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me.

STARSHIP UPDATE: SpaceX launched Starship from Starbase, Texas, on Friday, Nov. 13th, at 4:47 pm CST. However, the first half of the much-anticipated “double catch” did not go as planned.
2 Corinthians 5:7
7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
Walk in Faith of God’s unseen eternal promises and character, rather than what is immediately visible in the physical world. Let go of the need to see every outcome, circumstance, or physical proof before obeying or Trusting God. When an “obstacle” appears to block our path, the Lord is opening a door to the Road that leads to our Divine Destiny.
The Eagle flies in the Highest Proximity to the Lord of Creation. It takes Patience and Time to see the Big Picture. Our eyes will be opened by Faith in the Lord.
Friday the 13th is a symbol that calls the Time to our attention. 13 is a symbol of Ascension and the Truth of Answered Prayers. Whatever the future may bring, we can Stand on the Truth of the Word and the Power of God’s Will. Symbols are magnified by repetition.
Eagles fly into the storm to catch the updraft of wind. Lean in to the Truth by Faith to be carried effortlessly to the Heights. The Lord shares the Signs along the way.

FRIDAY THE 13TH STARSHIP LAUNCH: SpaceX is about to try something no one has ever done. On Friday, Nov. 13th, the company will launch Starship from Starbase, Texas–and then try to catch both halves of the rocket with the launch tower.

Psalm 121 KJV
121 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
When you don’t know where you’re going and you don’t know where you’ve been, you are guided by the Light. The Truth is exalted in the Zenith Hour of Light. The Glory of the Lord bears down on our Spirit.
