Signs of Ascension
Matthew 26:41 KJV
41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
The Harvest Moon is the Sign of our Highest Ascension. Jesus predicted the future. He said that the disciples would be scattered, even as they declared their Faith.
Matthew 26:33 KJV
33 Peter answered and said to Him, “Even if all are [g]made to stumble because of You, I will never be made to stumble.”
34 Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you that this night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”
35 Peter said to Him, “Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!” And so said all the disciples.
Jesus called for the Apostles to watch and pray in the Garden of Gethsemane. Now, as it was before, we are called to watch and pray without ceasing.
This is a special Harvest Moon. The Moon will appear to be Full for 3 Days.
“The equinox gives the Harvest Moon a special power: It rises near sunset for several nights in a row.” (Spaceweather.com, 09/26/2026 explains it.) It’s closer to the equinox than usual: only 3.7 days later. The Harvest Moon can land as far as 15 days from the equinox. In the last decade, only 2018 (2.0 days) and 2021 (1.8 days) came closer than 2026.
Last year’s Harvest Moon was also special as it fell at its farthest extreme, 15 days after the equinox. In 2025 the Harvest Moon peaked on the night of October 6, 2025, cresting fully at 11:48 p.m. ET (3:48 UTC on October 7). It was a Supermoon—the first of four consecutive supermoons in late 2025—appearing roughly 14% larger and 30% brighter than a standard full moon. So did stargazers see Saturn shining close to the moon during the peak nights. (EarthSky.org)
Saturn was considered the Ancient Sun that Ruled by the Law of the Old Testament. The Christ Spirit is symbolized by Venus as the One who fulfilled the Law and replaced it by the Commandment to Love.
