              War & Judgment – 2017


              Mars, the god of war, is the ruler over war. Mars is named after the ancient Roman god of war. The Romans
              copied the ancient Greeks, who named the fourth planet from the sun after their god of war, Ares. In different
              cultures, Mars represents masculinity and youth. Its symbol, a circle with an arrow pointing out to the upper
              right, is also used as a symbol for the male gender. This planet is associated with war as well as a symbol of man
              in general or mankind. It is known as the red planet which represents bloody war.

                     The symbol, or glyph, of Mars is widely used as a symbol of the male. It shows the circle of spirit, directed outwards. It can

                       represent mankind or man in general.

              Mars is the planet of energy, action and desire. It is the survival instinct, and can be thought of as the "leftover" animal nature of
              man.  Mars is named after the ancient Roman god of war, as befitting the red planet's bloody color. The Romans copied the ancient
              Greeks, who named the fourth planet from the sun after their god of war, Ares. Other civilizations also typically gave the planet
              names based on its color — for example, the Egyptians named it "Her Desher," meaning "the red one," while ancient Chinese
              astronomers dubbed it "the fire star."

              God created the heavens for signs and seasons. Everyday of every year the positions of the planets and stars in
              the heavens are uniquely given in time and space. It is possible to identify the day and year given a star map if
              you know the location on the earth of the generated map. We have learned that Cancer is considered a “Dark
              Sign.” We also know that the planet of Mars represents bloody war. The sea is represented by constellations of
              both Hydra, the multi-headed Leviathan serpent of the sea, and by Cancer. Is this symbolic that the enemies will
              come by sea or that the coastal cities of this nation will be attacked? The first Group of States that have made it
              lawful for same-sex marriage are located on the northeast coast as well as the northwest coast of the United
