Hello Forum Friends, I just came a cross a new video series from The Fatima Center Called Signs and Secrets - based on a book by Mariana Bartold. The book goes in depth on exploring the meaning of some of the other signs which occurred at Fatima in addition to what our Blessed Mother told The children and the miracle of the sun. for instance episode 1 talked about the cloud the spectators saw hovering over the oak tree and related it to different bible citations and spiritual writers who talked about what God revealed in scripture. Marianna has done very in depth research on these different signs. Reminds me very much of how Father Wolfe talked about Fatima in his mission talks. I am only up to episode 3 but am excited I wanted to share it immediately! you can find here: https://fatima.org/category/video/signs-and-secrets/ and on YouTube
Wonderful, thank you for sharing this. I read her excellent book about Fatima and look forward to listening to the series. Mariana Bartold is also the only person I know who talks about the link between the star of Esther on Our Lady's gown in Fatima and the link with the book of Esther.
Thanks for sharing this Looking forward to watching. I wish Scott Hahn would write on this kind of stuff.
That analysis of the Book of Esther is very important to understand end times prophecy. One thing the author did not mention is the connection with Mardochai in the Book of Esther with Ewal-Marduk in Jeremiah 52:31. The connection gets lost in translation in the ancient texts. The name "Ewal-Marduk" should be read "Oulai-Mardochai." Oulai is the river in the city of Susan (the setting of the Book of Esther). Oulai also means "olive." The word "Oulai-Mardochai" means the "Mardochai" from "Oulai." Mardochai is the uncle of Esther who plays a role in saving "the Jews" (Catholics) from "Haman" (who represents the Antichrist). Remember that St. Malachy's Prophecy of the Popes refers to Benedict XVI as "the Glory of the Olive." He is the anointed Pope, anointed by the oil of the olive when he is made a Bishop but anointed by the Holy Spirit when he is made the Supreme Pontiff. But also the "olive" is a reference to the Olivet Discourse in the Gospels, where Jesus explains what will happen in the end time period. Anyway, "Oulai-Mardochai" is mentioned in Jeremiah chapter 52 as the person who releases King Jehoiachin from "captivity." In this prophecy, "Oulai-Mardochai" is a figure of "Peter the Roman" who lets "King Jehoiachin" (a figure of Joseph Ratzinger) out of captivity. This event happens in the 37th Year of the Exile. The Exile being referred to started in July 1988, when the SSPX and traditional Catholics were considered persona non grata by some in the Church. So depending on how you calculate the years, the date should fall in the "twelfth month" of the Hebrew Calendar (the month of Adar) in 2024 or 2025. This should also coincide with "the big event in the Church" mentioned by the Garabandal seers. Ven. Holzhauser's Great Monarch and Holy Pope prophecy describes this event as well. I know all of the above seems very obscure. But just be on the look out for big things (good things) to happen, starting in March of 2024 or March 2025. Until then, things will look very bleak for traditional Catholics.
