The Christmas Code: A New Astronomy of Christmas and how it came from Ancient Egypt

The Christmas Code: A New Astronomy of Christmas and how it came from Ancient Egypt, begins by revealing Isaac Newton’s little known study of the original dating of Christmas, and continues to connect the dots back through who the “magi” in the Bible story really were. How they measured the time of their prophecy from the motions of the stars, and passed the information down from Old Testament prophets, and how they discovered their astronomical information from a very ancient great University of Heliopolis, Egypt, is revealed. Clues out in the open in the Bible, the Vatican, great scholars like Newton and the classical Greeks, are synthesized with recent archaeological finds and refined astro-archaeological synthesis to unveil the clear astronomical bases of the Christmas Star in the Bible story, the dating of Christmas, and the reason for the timing of the Christ birth itself. The thread of evidence runs through Thomas G. Brophy’s recent book Black Genesis: The Prehistoric Origins of Ancient Egypt (coauthored with Robert Bauval) all the way back to the very ancient and mysterious site Nabta Playa. A very concise short book/long essay of 11,000 words with 24 images, The Christmas Code is light but scholarly holiday reading, with narrative vignettes.
