Fwiw, I asked John Pratt (Astronomer and ancient calender expert) about Mars' current brightness and its significance and here is his reply:
<Quote> Mars will be bright but it is almost that bright every two years. That is, it is only slightly closer than usual when it is opposite from the sun. I don't think it is a sign of anything. Thanks, John </Quote>
So I guess that shoots my theory all to heck--doesn't it?
FWIW, on this matter I agree completely with Brother Pratt.
