May 21 2016 Blue Moon Sabbath, Metonic Cycle Every 19 year history

May 21 2016 Blue Moon Sabbath Metonic Cycle Every 19 year history

May 21, Saturday. Blue moon  4^th full moon in one season between a solstice and an equinox.

May 2016 – SIGN OF THE TIMES – Paranormal YouTubers have been posting videos ahead of the event with some saying “something just doesn’t feel right.” A blue moon is a second full moon in the same calendar month. It last happened in July. But Saturday’s event is even rarer as it also a fourth full moon in one season – the period between a solstice and an equinox, as there would usually be just three.

2016/17 is the end of the 19 year cycle; a leap year, and a Jubilee Year.

Month 2, 2^nd Sabbath.

Scriptures: Genesis 1:14; Luke 21:25-26.

Torah Portion: Leviticus 21:1 - 24:23; Haftarah: Ezekiel 44:15 - 44:31; I Peter 2:4-10

The moon "usually comes full 12 times in a year, three times for each season." Occasionally, however, there will come a year when there are 13 full moons during a year, not the usual 12. 

And that extra full moon also meant that one of the four seasons would contain four full moons instead of the usual three.
There are seven Blue Moons in a lunar cycle of 19 years.

In spring 2016, there are four full moons, occurring on March 23, April 22, May 21 and June 20.

June 20, 2016, is the first day of summer if you live north of the equator, but south of the equator, that date is the first day of winter. In 2016, the summer solstice comes at 2234 GMT or 6:34 p.m. ET on June 20. But the moon turns full at 1103 GMT or 7:03 a.m. ET. That's 11 hours and 31 minutes before the solstice occurs. So the June 20 full moon occurs during the waning hours of spring and qualifies as the fourth full moon of the season.

"Metonic Cycle: Meton of Athens (ca. 440 BC) noticed that 235 lunar months made up almost exactly 19 solar years. Using modern measurements, the near commensurability of the two periods follows from the fact that 235/19 is the 6th convergent of the ratio of the lunar month and solar year periods (365.2425/29.53059).

This 19-year lunar cycle became known as the Metonic cycle, and was the basis for the Greek calendar until the Julian calendar was introduced in 46 BC. Since 12 lunar months equal 354.367 days, about 11 days less than a solar year, an additional lunar months were added to synchronize the cycle. These were added in years 3, 5, 8, 11, 13, 16, and 19 of the cycle. The Metonic cycle was extended by Callippus to 4 19-year cycles, which is known as the Callipic cycle. Callipic Cycle, Hipparchic."

So what happened in the Metonic cycle years since 1 CE?

16 BC

Note: Julian calendar is one year earlier than the dates shown so I will post where applicable of what happened in both years.

Other than the events already mentioned I’m thinking this would be considered the other most positive historical step towards modern Israel’s expansion, showing “the fig tree putting forth leaves”. It led to many long term benefits, such as providing for the free passage of Israeli ships through the Suez Canal.  38 years till 2017.  1979/80

1999-2017 There is that magical year again.
 

End of the Metonic cycle. 2018-2036.

According to the Jewish Calendar, this cycle began in 1997 and ends in 2016 in Tishrei/October, 2016 with the Day of the Lord beginning which covers both the Trumpet and Bowl Judgments in a one year period.

The Metonic Cycle lines up with Daniels Timeline of 1260+1290 or 2550 days exactly.

The number of moon from Tishrei of a given year to Tishrei 7 years later varies. It may be 7x12 = 84 moons =2 extra Adar moon =86 moons or it may be 3 extra adar moons =87 moons. Those seven year spans containing 86 moons match up perfectly the timespan between the next two feasts of Israel that are due for fulfillment. From Tishrei 1/Day of Trumpet (Lev. 23:24ff; Rev 11—7^th Trumpet; Rev 12:1), in certain years and terminating on Tishrei 10/Day of Atonement/Armageddon/Day of Reckoning/Day of Judgment (Lev 23:27-34; Rev 14:20ff; 15; 16/19) seven years later the time elapsed is exactly 2550 days. This is the exact number of days, (1260+1290), which encompasess the 70^th week of Daniel.

According to the Jewish calculation, creation was in the autumn of 3761 BCE, slightly later than the traditional Christian figure of 4004 BCE. Thus the year 5701 began in 1940 in the Gregorian calendar and ended in 1941.
