THE BIRTH AND DEATH OF JESUS
Timeline Data
and relevance in 2025
Data from multiple planetary factors support available research that points to 5BCE as the birth year of JESUS CHRIST
The Spring season is cited by scholars based on biblical clues for the birth month.
In 6BCE a year before the birth of Jesus there were 3 conjunctions of Jupiter and Saturn in Pisces. Triple conjunctions are rare and they sustain energy for far longer than the typical 20 year cycle of influence under the paired major planetary energies. In Pisces the sign was highly spiritual.
Although the descriptor Lamb of God has been applied in the presence of seasonal births of sheep and goats at that time the Fish symbolism is also widely accepted and used as a Christian motif.
Adding some confusion the Christmas tradition has given a perception that Jesus was born in December in the snow
More reliably an astrological perspective is able to provide data that focuses on standout planetary events and their symbolic connection to Jesus Christ.

CYCLES
Jesus was born under the Jupiter-Neptune cycle of 11BCE - The conjunction degree was 25’26 Libra
His birth in 5BC was March 19 at the waxing of the New Moon in Pisces with Saturn in Pisces conjunct and Uranus trine Neptune at 6’58 Pisces-Scorpio
This birth position was a year before the Jupiter Neptune opposition April 4BCE 8’44 Taurus-Scorpio.
This birth position in the cycle is representative of the Gibbous phase described by Rudhyar as growth-oriented..desiring to contribute value and meaning..seeking revelation or illumination…devoted to a cause clearly very appropriate.
March 19 5BCE was just days before the Northern Spring Equinox signified by the Aries zodiac ingress. In 5BCE this was on March 23.
The Lamb attribution can be seen as a version of the Aries symbol typically used for the horned goat. Lambs and baby goats were likely to be present in the fields and taken as a symbol.
The easy assumption of Biblical scholars is that Jesus was born after March 23 5BCE and before the next sign ingress April 23 that year but such a profound event as the birth of a major religious figure requires very significant signs of confirmation that can be affirmed by data.
Nothing arises of that significance in April 5BCE but much data arises surrounding March 19 in support of the buildup beginning 7BCE in the signifier Pisces as well as its complementary sign Virgo
If Jesus was indeed born in 5BCE it was at the age 7 that his first Jupiter-Neptune cycle arose (22’34 Scorpio) on November 18 in 2CE.
Then at age 20 on November 7 15CE his second Jupiter Neptune cycle ( 19’35 Sagittarius).
The combination of the two spiritualising planets Jupiter and Neptune has considerable significance. The cycle in Sagittarius allows for the development of the spiritual philosophy Jesus was to preach.
It was then in his last Jupiter-Neptune cycle (March 1 28CE at 19’03 Capricorn) from age 33 that the Ministry of Jesus began and the Crucification and death of Jesus occurred.
This final cycle combining high spirituality (Jupiter-Neptune synergy) and the signifier of prominence - Capricorn - marked the years of spiritual guidance Jesus pursued in the 3 years before his death proposed here to be in 32CE.
Challenging conditions were signalled in 31CE on April 30 when Jupiter in Aries first opposed the onset position 25’26 Libra (11BCE cycle conjunction degree for Jupiter-Neptune under which Jesus’ birth occurred)
This combining of the key planets and the signs Libra-Aries can express as abundant violence… large gathering.
This energy was present on and around April 26 31CE soon followed by Jupiter in Aries applying an exact 90º angle to Neptune 26’37 Capricorn -April30-May1 31CE.
These Cardinal sign positions in Aries and Capricorn marked a crisis point - these planetary positions were distinctly at odds with the 25’26 Libra conjunction of Jupiter and Neptune November 22 11BCE - being the cycle producing the birth of Jesus in March 5BCE at the Gibbous phase of that cycle.
The onset of the cycle of challenge - at the end of April 31CE denotes a period of years within which the challenges could unfold.
The next period showing a significant pattern match began January 32CE
January 19-20 the Sun and Neptune conjunct at 26-28 Capricorn were square the lunar nodes - in Aries-Libra and relevant to the noted 25’26 Libra position of high significance to the life of Jesus.
Then March 32CE
on the 17th when the Sun matched the 25 Pisces birth Sun of Jesus - this annual return event contained a forecast: now Neptune 27’52 Capricorn and the Nodes 23’22 Aries-Libra became more personalised and intensely challenging regarding the spiritual leadership of Jesus.
The standout pattern in that timeframe - forecasting what unfolded soon after - was a very tight semisquare of Pluto 12’42 Sagittarius and Neptune 27’53 Capricorn. The spititual leader challenged by forces intending to destroy his spiritual philosphy
April 32CE
The first Full Moon after the Aries [Equinox] ingress in March 32CE was April 14.
April 14 32CE was a total lunar eclipse 22 Aries-Libra following a partial solar eclipse at the New Moon on March 29 7Aries.
The Sunday following was April 20. This formula is said to indicate dates for the period from Good Friday to Easter Sunday
Mon Apr 14
Total lunar eclipse 22 Aries-Libra - Sun was on the Aries North Node Moon on the Libra South Node. THis eclipse was in range of the Jesus cycle onset at 25 Libra 11BC
The initial window of effect extends 3 days in the wake of a lunar event and an eclipse has a potential for activations until the following solar eclipse
Thurs April 17
Sun at 25 Aries resonated by exact opposition to the Jesus cycle onset
Three planets formed a Fire trine
All at 12º - Venus in Aries Uranus in Leo Pluto in Sagittarius
Pluto 12º Sagittaius merged with Venus and Uranus and tightly activated 26º-28º Cardinal signs - either by sequisquare or semisquare
Fri April 18 Pluto sesqui Sun 26 Aries
Sat April 19 Pluto sesqui Sun 26-27 Aries
Sun April 20 Pluto Pluto sesqui Sun 27-28 Aries
Pluto semisquare Neptune 28 Capricorn
This standout sequence of dates connects to the traditional recognition of Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
There is relevant pattern matching to the sensitive and repetitive degrees in late Cardinal signs marking critical periods for Jesus
This data is not matched in 31AD or 33AD
Relevance to 2025
The triple Pisces cycles of Jupiter and Saturn in 6BCE hold high significance regarding the divine principle represented by Jesus
These events signalled a 20 YEAR SPIRITUAL CYCLE from 6BCE to year14CE
As such their degree positions retain high and enduring resonance that is able to echo through the ages -an embedded layer capable of being reawakened.
2025 stands out in terms of very clear pattern matching
The 6BCE dates and degrees of the Pisces conjunctions of Jupiter and Saturn are on record.
As are the 2025 dates of significant events considered to bear high spiritual significance
6BCE: May 29 20PISCES56 2025 July 1 discovery of 3I/ATLAS - lunar nodes were 21PISCES03
6BCE Oct 1 17PISCES25 retrograde conjunction 2025 Oct 21New Moon lunar nodes 17PISCES 45 - 3I/ATLAS is passing the Sun -considered a highly significant period of exchange between the two bodies -in support of spiritual evolution
6BCE Dec5 15PISCES34 - matches the Sept 2025 total lunar eclipse 15PISCES23 - the influence of an eclipse is at minimum around 6 months until the next eclipse. Wider awareness of 3I/ATLAS began in September 2025
It is known from Matthew 2:1-2 = the Magi followed a bright “star “seen in the East that pointed them to Bethlehem
In the Jupiter Saturn cycle that began in year 14CE…Jesus died within the Last Quarter period that was in effect from 29CE to 34CE
