Rene,
 
AWESOME POST!  I too have felt that Comet Holmes is a "sign in the Heavens."  Thanks!  So many things relating to 7 years.
 
--Comet Holmes (explodes to 2x size of the Sun!) over us in 2007, returning in 2014.
--2007 being a Shmita year (end of 7 year period), 2008 beginning of new Shmita cycle.
