Abstract:
Praise
the Lord of Hosts, the Creator of the Universe, who is constantly revealing
secrets long forgotten!
“Surely the Lord GOD will do
nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.” (Amos
3:7)
Based on
little more than 1) the map studies of Charles Hapgood as reported in his books
“Maps of the Ancient Sea Kings” and “Path of the Pole,” that is, for the exact
locations of the poles; 2) the timing obvious from the eyewitness reports
pertaining to the long day of Joshua, and the day when “the LORD… brought the shadow
ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz…,” and 3) the best available
astronomy science, I have found it possible to make computer reconstructions
that agree perfectly with the above said records…
Beginning
with a rough reconstruction of Ahaz’s sundial and the event recorded by the
words: “The
LORD… brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the
dial of Ahaz”
(2 Kings 20:(9-)11,) I then continued by delving more deeply into the somewhat
more intricate details of Joshua’s Long Day than I did at first (for my initial
version of Joshua’s Long Day please cf. this link[2].) As it turned out the Scripture
record of Joshua’s Long Day taught me more exactly the duration of that pole
shift (55.5 ±2 hours,) which duration I believe is more than likely much the
same as for each and all other pole shifts.
For a
little more background to my delving into this particular line of study, please
refer to this
link and to this
one…
Perhaps I ought to mention too, one reference, first published
in 1956, from which an artist friend of
mine read aloud to me[3] after seeing some of my pole shift
models presented below. Within the passage from which my friend read, I find a
few paragraphs giving reference to certain records within the Holy Writ, while
in that context giving reference also to sudden violent pole shifts that has
occurred in the past and which may occur at any time even now:
“I call your attention to a record contained within your own Holy Writ.
If you study it carefully, you will notice…
“It may interest you to learn that a gradual tilting of your Earth is even now taking place. If,
as could happen at any moment, it should make a complete tilt in order to
fulfill its cycle… and if
the peoples on your planet learn to live according to the Creator’s laws, you
too can attain a thousand years in the one body…[4]
“This tilting of… Earth… A
drastic tilt of one planet would…
“[A]nd although the laws which govern the relationship of man to the
world on which he lives [is] not at this present time… understood by men of
Earth, I want to stress that the erring path which they have followed so consistently
is actually the reason for their ignorance of your planet’s present
instability. Through the ages, there have been
many signs and omens which [the] people [on Earth] have ignored. Many of these
have been recorded in your Holy Writ... But your people heeded
them not. And although many have already been fulfilled, the lesson has not
been learned. It is not wise to become independent of the Creator of all.
Mankind must be guided by the hand that has given him life.” [5]
May I
suggest that each one of us pursues each his or her own search for the
treasures of life – and for long term survival – not excluding the computer
simulations being made available below…
At the
present time[6] I wish to add a disclaimer re the exact itineraries[7] being identified in my currently published computer simulations
(below.) Contrary to my earlier impression re alternative routes for such
itineraries, I have lately discovered good reasons for identifying more complex
itineraries than the ones available below… Please look for future updates of
this article accordingly!...:
Computer simulations:
1. Attempted
reconstructions of the events recorded in eyewitness’s accounts:
a. “The LORD… brought the shadow
ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the
dial of Ahaz (link update pending!):” 2 Kings 20:(9-)11
i.
As best I can tell, the dial of Ahaz’s was a
sundial designed to show the time of day by means of the shadow of the sun.
Accordingly, I have designed a simple sundial set on the face of the Earth and
located at the location of Jerusalem, that is, within my computer simulation of
the series of pole shifts here being made available to you.
As
it turns out, when my sundial is 1) placed in that position, 2) set to the pre
Hezekiah sun at the time of an equinox, and 3) the timing of the pole shift
relative to the sun is adjusted such that the solar shadow reverses its path in
the 10th hour of day, then that it is all it takes for reproducing
all the details I find recorded in the Holy Scriptures re this event. Indeed, I
find that the realities seen within this reconstruction sheds much light on the
exact meaning of the words within said Scripture record:
1. Not only is the
sun’s shadow reversing its path at the 10th hour of the day, but…
2. From that time
on, as perceived from the Jerusalem horizon, the path of the sun on the sky is
reversed, and…
3. From that time
on, even until now, the shadow on that sundial is beginning the day in the 10th
hour of the dial of Ahaz and back tracking from that point until sunset every
evening…
You’ll
find my reconstruction of Ahaz’s sundial at this
link. It is a bit large, (747MB,) so if you should prefer to get that file
on a DVD, along with the rest of my currently available simulations below, then
please notify me by email and send me
something in exchange for the time and efforts necessary for me to prepare and
send you these gifts of our Creator in DVD format.
b. Joshua’s
Long Day:
i.
A sun dial view (118MB) of Joshua’s long day. Notice how the Jerusalem area, at the
base of the sundial pin, is always getting within the dark night zone before
and after the pole shift, and how, during the pole shift, it makes an exception
to that rule, by getting close enough to the land of the midnight sun, such
that it never gets into that darkest zone of the night… Notice also how the
shadow of the Sun disappears as the Sun passes the zenith… Lastly, notice how
the solar shadow is reversing its direction at the end of the pole shift…;
ii.
A
Jerusalem centered view (118MB) of our planet at the time of Joshua’s Long Day,
which day—within one of the years[8] between 1431 BCE and 1426 BCE—included a transfer of Jerusalem[9] from longitude 99 East to longitude
37 West, that is, more than nine time zones further west, while bringing in its
luggage the prime Scriptural reference for time reckoning. That is, such that,
for each of the two subsequent poleshifts, the Julian Day calendar etc. ended
up adding one day over and above the one and only calendar that is based upon
the record of the Holy Scriptures, and upon the throne of God, that is, upon
the location of the Ark of the Covenant. Again, please notice the items
referenced at 1.b.i above!
Meaning in effect that, for each poleshift between any given point in
times past, and between present time, in order to determine the Jerusalem
based, i.e. Ark of the Covenant based, actual day of the week associated with
any given date in the ancient past, one week day must be subtracted from the
week day reported for that given date by means of e.g. the Julian
Day and Civil Day Calculator!
Compare
also the following words out of the ancient Hebrew Scriptures. Notice that Amos
lived between the time of Joshua and the time of King Hezekiah, that is,
between those two pole shifts!:
Psalms 46:2 KJV
Therefore
will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be
carried into the midst of the sea;
Psalms 46:3 KJV
Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the
swelling thereof. Selah.
63 And when they were
smiting, at the time of twilight [towards an expected Seventh Day
Shabbat,] Joshua said in the sight of all the people, Sun, stand thou
still within Gibeon, and thou moon in the valley
of Ajalon, until the nation shall have revenged itself upon its enemies.
64 And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Joshua, and the [shadow of the] sun perished [as the Sun crossed
zenith] in the midst of the heavens, and stood thirty six hours [i.e. the light
of the Sun did not fully disappear until after the subsequent sunset, which
occurred within the thirty-sixth water clock hour (vs. after the usual twelve
hours following sunrise.)] And also the [full] moon stood [remained above the
horizon] and did not set until the day was fully come [i.e. until after the sun
was risen above the horizon.]
65 And there was no day like that, before it or after
it, that the Lord hearkened to the voice of a man, for the Lord fought for
Israel.

of Jasher 88:63-65; TLT © translation highlighted)
Jer 51:42 KJV The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is
covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.

out of her the great voice; when her waves do roar like great waters, a noise
of their voice is uttered:

Joshua’s Long Day from
numerous locations around the world: Cf. this link (cashed)!
The Egyptian Account of Joshua’s Long Day
“Toward the end of the last century, Charles Adiel
Lewis Totten, then a retired Professor of Military Science from Yale
University, published a controversial study on Joshua’s long day.23 The
book dealt extensively with Joshua’s long day and Hezekiah’s
sign. In recent times attempts to discredit it center more on the
person of Totten than they do on the mathematics and science
involved. Totten was the editor of Our Race, a
publication devoted to the promotion of what today is called “British
Israelitism,” although Totten’s stance is eminently more realistic and moderate
than that taken by that faction today. Robert Olden24 says Totten obtained most of his material
from J. B. Dimbleby of South Hackney, England, who was the premier chronologist
of the British Chronological Society. Lest Totten be accused of plagiarism,
Dimbleby is cited numerous times in Totten’s works. Totten has also
been accused of worshipping the Great Pyramid of Giza, from which, it is
claimed, he received his inspiration for his work on Joshua’s long
day. Actually, the latter sounds more like Dimbleby, for a reading
of Totten’s works on the Great Pyramid reveals none of the mysticism implied by
the charge…
“One of Totten’s sources is a report by the Greek
historian Herodotus who wrote that when he visited Egypt, the priests there
showed him an ancient manuscript which told the story of a day which lasted
about twice as long as a nor mal day…
“The sun, thrown into confusion, had remained low on the horizon, and by
not rising had spread terror amongst the great doctors. Two days had
been rolled into one. The morning was lengthened to one-and-a-half
times the normal period of effective daylight. A certain time after
this divine phenomenon, the master had an image built to keep further
misfortune from the country…
“Rameses, our
celestial ancestral chief; you who forced these wretched people to work, who
ill-treated them, who gave them no help when they were in need: cast them into
the sea. They made the moon stop in a small angle at the edge of the
horizon. In a small angle on the edge of the horizon, the sun
itself, which had just risen at the spot where the moon was going, instead of
crossing the sky stayed where it was. Whilst the moon, following a
narrow path, reduced its speed and climbed slowly, the sun stopped moving and
its intensity of light was reduced to the brightness at
daybreak. The waves formed a wall of water against the boats that
were in the harbor and those that had left it. Those fishermen that had
ventured onto the deck to watch the waves were washed into the sea.”
The Chinese Account of Joshua’s Long Day (cf. below!:)
“The second
secular source about Joshua’s long day, which was mentioned by Totten, is based
on what seems to be a recently lost ancient Chinese manuscript. In 1810 Gill
presents the account:
“In the Chinese history27 it
is reported, that in the time of their seventh emperor, Yao, the sun did not
set for ten days, and that men were afraid the world would be burnt, and there
were great fires at that time; and though the time of the sun’s standing still
were enlarged beyond the bounds of truth, yet it seems to refer to this fact,
and was manifestly about the same time; for this miracle was wrought in the
year of the world 2554, which fell in the 75th, or, as some say, the
67th year of that emperor’s reign, who reigned 90 years.28
“Now the year
of the world 2554 is identical to Bouw’s independently derived biblical
chronology for the date of Joshua’s long day.29 Incidentally,
note that a 90-year reign (not Yao’s age) is thoroughly consistent with the 110
to 120 year ages achieved by Moses, Aaron, and Joshua who would have been
contemporaries of Yao. The length of time mentioned by the Chinese,
ten days, may be too long simply because the Chinese did not have clocks which
ran independently of the sun’s motion so that the estimate would be purely
subjective. Probably, the duration was exaggerated both by the
trauma of the event and in the transmission of the story through time.
“Despite the
solid-sounding account by Gill, manuscripts which have survived to the
twentieth century do not include the long day. The first mention of
the long day associated with emperor Yao was by Hübner in 1733.30 Although Hübner was quoted
during that century, no manuscript exists today. Those manuscripts
which have survived to this day differ from Hübner’s in at least two ways:
first, there is no mention of the 10-day long day, and second, the reign of Yao
is reported to be 100 years, not 90.
“Although there is no mention of the ten-day
long day in current Chinese accounts, there is one in the “Brahman Yast,” one
of the books of the Avesta. That reference is not, however, to
a past event. Instead, it is a
prophecy. The Avesta says that 1600 years from the date of
the Persian culture (corresponding to about A.D. 1200), Hushedar will be born
and, at age 30, he will command the sun to stand still for 10 days and
nights. Obviously, the prophecy never came to pass, still it is
strongly reminiscent of the Chinese account and may either have confused Hübner
or else may reflect the actual Chinese account used by Hübner.”
North American Accounts of Joshua’s Long Day
“Tales relating to Joshua’s long day abound in North
America. Almost all of the tales in North America tell of a long
night. The only exceptions are those related in the chapter on
Hezekiah’s sign. Olcott31 has collected five of particular
interest:
1.
The Ojibways tell of a long night without any light.32
2.
The Wyandot Indians told missionary Paul Le Jeune of a
long night.33

The Dogrib Indians of the North-West tell of a day
when the sun was caught at noon and it instantly became dark.34

The Omahas say that once the sun was caught in a trap
by a rabbit who checked his traps at the break of dawn, presumably before
sunrise.35 (This
may be Hezekiah’s sign, instead.) Finally,

the Bungee Indians from the Lake Winnipeg area of
Canada also tell of a long night.36
Central and South American Accounts of Joshua’s Long
Day
“In the Annals of Chauhtitlan, the Mexican Indians tell of a
long night. The Aztecs wrote of an extended period of time when the
sun did not rise:
“... So a conclave of the gods was called in Teotihuacan, and there it was
decided that one of them should offer himself as a sacrifice that once again
the world might have a sun ... The sacrificed gods had disappeared in the
brazier’s flames, but as there was no sign of the sun, the remaining wonder
when it would first appear. At long last, the sun burst forth ... But the sun,
despite his brilliant light, did not move; he hung on the edge of the sky,
apparently unwilling to begin his appointed task.37 ”
“In their national book the Popol Vuh, (which
translates into “Book of the Princes,”) the Quiché Mayans of Guatemala wrote
about the people’s reaction to a long night with these words:
“They did not sleep; they remained standing and great was the anxiety of
their hearts and their stomachs for the coming of the dawn and the day ... “Oh,
... if we only could see the rising of the sun! What shall we do
now?” ... They talked, but they could not calm their hearts which were anxious
for the coming of the dawn.38 ”
Overview of Accounts of Joshua’s Long Day:
”Joshua’s
long day around the world: The solid black circles show locations with
tales of a long night; open circles plot tales of a long day, and the
half-white half-black circle in the Pacific shows the location of a long
sunrise tale. Recently, after this figure was made, another long
sunrise tale was reported in Hawaii.”

Considerations re the correlations between current
astronomy software timing and the timing beyond the pole shifts:
When
using astronomy software and such tables as are being provided by Fred Espenak/NASA
etc.: How may the data available by such tools be corrected or improved,
specifically in re to such events as are dated prior to Joshua’s Long Day, by
means of the within findings re timed pole shifts?
First
I notice that there is no simple rule applicable alike for any and all
locations. The timing for each location will have to be modified on an
individual basis. That is, relative to UT as provided by e.g. the NASA tables
for any given event, the true time difference for an event prior to the last
pole shift will necessarily differ from one location to another. To arrive at
the correct time for such an event one must be able to determine not only the
geographical coordinates for such a location before and after a given pole
shift, but also one must determine whether the new location moves the any given
date ahead of, or else behind such a date as may at first seem indicated by
means of a chronology that is not heretofore giving recognition to these
relatively recent pole shift events. Because many dates from ancient times
pertain to the Middle East generally, and to Jerusalem in particular, let’s
consider first of all Jerusalem:
Re
the pole shift in Hezekiah’s 15th year of reign [In the year
beginning Tishri 22, 699 BCE:]
The
geographical coordinates of Jerusalem are as follows:
Current: 31º 47’N 35º 13’E
Pre-Hezekiah’s
15th year of reign: 14º 11’ S
37º 13’ W
At
the time of a pole shift some locations will experience a longer day or night
than usual, while other locations will experience a shorter day or night than
usual. However, at the hub of the pole shift the length of day and night will
remain unchanged. It follows that, relative to Julian Day reckoning, the dates
indicated on records from places located at the hub of a pole shift are largely
unaffected by that pole shift. The same will be true for the timing of any event
that is directly based upon observations of celestial events such as sunset,
sunrise, new moon, solar eclipse, lunar eclipse, etc.. It also follows that,
relative to Julian Day reckoning, places experiencing a shorter or longer day
or night than usual will have to add or subtract time accordingly. That is, the dates indicated on records from
places located at such places, and the dates associated with celestial events
of such places, will need to add time if they experienced a shorter day or
night than usual, and they will need to subtract time if they experienced a
longer day or night than usual. This may seem simple and obvious enough, but
there may be complications requiring clear definitions. For instance, re the
date inscribed on an ancient record relative to the Julian Day reckoning, if we
know what celestial event that defined the beginning of a certain date, then
the correction may be added or subtracted as necessary. Notice however, that,
if either noon or midnight is being used for defining the beginning of the new
date, then that point in time, noon or midnight, would necessarily be placed
much closer to, or else much longer from, sunset and sunrise than usual, and,
without the use of artificial means for reckoning time during that pole shift
event, i.e. without a clock etc., it would be impossible to know whether time
was gained or lost relative to Julian Day reckoning. Indeed, for people
experiencing such a pole shift during the dark of the night while they were
asleep, they might not even have been noticing anything at all other than the
fact that their night may have seemed longer or shorter than usual before
sunrise and before the time of rising out of bed. They might think nothing of
that, especially while noticing that the new day suddenly brought new and
strange things such as the sun rising from the opposite horizon than formerly,
etc..
From
the above it should be obvious that, as soon as we can identify the exact
events associated with a pole shift, that is, relative to time and place, then we
may also correctly deduce whether and how much time to add to, or else subtract
from, any given historical date in order to correlate it to the Julian Day
reckoning.
Thus,
if we know for a certain locality, e.g. Jerusalem, its correct geographical
coordinates before and after any given pole shift, and if we know also
something about a day or night being longer or shorter than usual during that
event, then we may conclude also the proper correction relative to Julian Day
reckoning. For instance, re the event in King Hezekiah’s 15 year of reign: The
sun stopped and reversed its path at the 10th hour of day [between
3PM and 4PM] and, accordingly, the shadow on Ahaz’s sundial had to traverse the
beginning marks of 10 specified hours before traversing across the same 10
marks once again during one and the same day. Obviously that day was longer
than usual as observed from that location on Earth. Recognizing also that, per
the above, the location of Jerusalem changed from a location 37º W to a
location 32º E, I find a time zone difference of 4 hours and 34 minutes for
that one location. That is, due to its change in location, Jerusalem, if you
will, had to travel, in effect, that same distance, between 37º W and 32º E,
twice during the time of that pole shift. In addition to that, there would have
been a difference in the length of day before and after the pole shift that was
due to the change of latitude and depending upon which time of the year it was,
that is, depending upon the length of time between the pole shift and either
spring or fall equinox. Indeed, these time differences would constitute the
total of the added length of that long day in the 15th year of King
Hezekiah.
The
same line of reasoning would hold true also for the long day of Joshua, that
is, provided the long day of Joshua did not include also a bypass of the night
by means of traveling on the polar side of the sun’s shadow during the hours of
night...
Conclusions from the above:
Nevertheless,
it is quite clear that Jerusalem is not now located along the same longitude
and within the same time zone relative to the core of the Earth and relative to
Julian days before that last pole shift. In consequence, it is clear to me that
Scripture time is not reckoned relative to the motion of the core of Earth,
to any particular location within the core of Earth, nor to any artificially
designed time clock, be such clock ever so exact in its measurement of
absolute time. No, the location associated with the one and only definition of
calendar time that remains is that which may seem to be associated with
Jerusalem, but which is, or so it seems, none other than the throne of God,
that is, the definition that remains is that which is determined, for
the people of Israel during the Exodus, when to move and when to remain put,
that is, the location of the Ark of the Covenant.
The
one question that remains is this: How does Scripture time relate to Julian
Days, and to what extent was there a change at any one pole shift?
But
part and parcel of that one question is also this: To what extent must our
understanding of a timed celestial event recorded upon an ancient document be
modified or corrected when such a record is known to have occurred beyond one
or more pole shifts? I believe the answer is simply to recognize the
differences between the
before and after pole shift locations, and to apply such different
parameters as are being defined by such different locations in terms of
geographical coordinates.
To
be sure, I see nothing to indicate that there would have been any change in
the reckoning of the days of the week relative to the Julian Day reckoning,
that is, so far as concerns the pole shift in the 15th year of King
Hezekiah. Nevertheless, the pre-Hezekiah Scripture days should be recognized as
beginning somewhat earlier (a few hours) on the Julian Day calendar than the
post-Hezekiah Scripture days do. With the exception (cf. my computer
simulation of said pole shift!) of Portugal, Morocco, North and North-East
South America, North-America, Australia, and Indonesia, all of which
experienced an extra very brief day and night during the 24 hours of the pole
shift, I believe no additional correction is necessary other than that which is
due to their respective before and after pole shift geographical coordinates.
If any ancient dated records are found from Portugal, Morocco, North and
North-East South America, North-America, Australia, or Indonesia (excluding New
Zeeland and most of the Pacific Ocean; cf. this
computer simulation,) it could be that such records would be dated one day
in advance of the remainder of the world, but I am not aware, at this point, of
any such dated records. Perhaps someone is? To put it differently, records from
said areas could potentially indicate Saturday where the records of the
remainder of the world were only indicating Friday. Accordingly, this is not
an instance of potential support for the keeping of Sunday as a day of Sabbath
rest!
Accordingly,
at this date (5924[(*??*)] 12 04 2028
[2012-03-27]) I
find confirmation for my
findings re Saul’s visit with the woman at Endor on March 23, 1023 BCE,
that is, the day prior to the day he died. That result, including its use as a
bridge between early and late Scripture chronology (between the death of
Solomon and King Nebuchadnezzar) should remain unaffected by any findings
related to any pole shift prior to King Saul’s time.
Diagrams showing some particulars re the nature of the
above referenced pole shifts:
Here follows a few overviews of the entire process:
Please notice that these diagrams reflect values along the line of polar
motion, that is, along the line of maximum motion of the Earth. For other
locations upon the planet, closer to the nave, or hub, of motion, these numbers
should be modified accordingly.
Also please notice that, during a pole shift, the waters of the oceans are
largely staying put in their original positions relative to the core of the
planet. That is, the atmosphere and the oceans will shift their position
relative to the moving crust of the Earth, while the greater portions of all
land areas upon the Earth are experiencing extreme tides in the form of
horrific tsunami waves and winds speeding across the greater portions of most
continents as indicated by the diagrams below:
Diagrams for assessing the timing (that is, the time of potential
arrival) and speed of a tsunami wave at any given location x kilometers from an
oncoming ocean etc.:
Details of the above diagrams showing
the events as they
likely proceed during the first eight hours or so following the very first –
probably barely noticeable – beginnings of a pole shift. I am thinking in terms
of applying the data below largely for any given location relative to the coast
line of an ocean located in the direction of local travel in consequence of a
pole shift:
To get an idea of the size of the acceleration associated with
a pole shift, the following diagram is provided. For comparison, please note
that the force of gravity is 9.81 meters/sec.sq.. That is, the accelaration, or
G-force, associated with a polar shift, such as within described, is no more
than about 0.00189 / 9.81 = 0.0001929 G or 0.02% of the force of gravity. It
will require somewhat sensible instruments to notice such a subtle
acceleration. Perhaps a pendulum type instrument. However, a simple pendulum
would be expected to swing no more than about 0.19 mm for each meter
of the pendulum’s length. Perhaps a GPS would be a more easily accessible
instrument for measuring the
beginnings of pole shift (cf. e.g. “Recent
Crustal Movements and Deformations[11]
by W. Augath?) That is, provided there is no built in mechanism in the GPS system to
correct for the Chandler Wobble of the Earth on a real time basis? Cf. this
link for the short term and this one for the more long
term observations…
Perhaps the following two diagrams
will be helpful for assessing the strength of the pole shift acceleration, that is, in terms of
the force of gravity. The first of the following two diagrams could be helpful
for designing an instrument for detecting the first beginnings of a pole shift.
It may also be used for assessing the induced slant of any body of water,
whether a bath tub, a nearby lake, or a major ocean. The latter will be the
force behind any oncoming tsunami that might traverse across even the largest
continent… That is, 19.3 centimeter for every 1 km of water surface, or 1.93 km
for every 10,000 km of open ocean along the line of travel! The good news is
that those numbers may be cut in half because the water level at the coast line
on the distant side of said ocean will be lowered by as much. Thus, as a rule
of thumb, the sea level on the receiving end of an ocean would rise up to
around 100 meter for every 1,000 km width of the ocean... Furthermore, there
should be a certain amount of delay, or moderation, of such results. Perhaps if
you think rather of the oncoming ocean in terms of a river running downhill
from a higher location to a lower location at that certain distance, if you see
what I mean? Yet, the speed of the
stream will be considerable… And indeed, the speed and the buildup of
momentum may easily make up for the relatively low inclination of that river of
an ocean… It just might be valuable to think ahead… and to make some plans… No
doubt, if you pray about it, our Savior and Creator will share some good ideas
with you! For the benefit of either you or else for a later generation!:
This
second diagram might be helpful for assessing the time before the tsunami wave
will begin losing the brunt of its force. But please notice that by the time
the acceleration begins to wane there will be a considerable buildup of speed
and momentum…:
The next three diagrams shows the
distance of the pole shift movement relative to the main mass of the Earth (i.e. the core)
underneath. These first two diagrams may help you properly set your GPS type
alarm apparatus. Software for that purpose is widely available for
free on the internet. At least if you already have an Android type phone…
And an Anchor
Alarm would probably serve such purposes even better…
Here
is yet another diagram showing the first seven hours of that same pole shift movement.
