"40 minutes and 33.33 hours"


 
Dear Doves,
 
When Saturn and Venus come to 40 minutes apart exactly (8:40 am Jerusalem Standard time on July 1st (9:40 am Daylight Savings)), it will be 33.33 hours until the start of the 17th of Tammuz at 6 pm July 2nd (7:00pm Daylight Savings). So the 33.33 comes into play twice.  What will be seen next?
 
Also, the mentioned alignment below of Al Nitak, Regulus occurs at 11:00 am Jerusalem/Cairo Standard time (the 5th hour of the day). The planets come closest 11 minutes prior to 11:00 am at 39 minutes, 47 seconds apart. This lasts for one hour.
 
Previous note:
 
The two planets come to 40 minutes apart (2/3 of a degree)(13 seconds under 40 at the closest) on July 1 in Jerusalem. They hit 40 degrees just as they rise in the east, and reach their closest for about an hour at the middle of the day, but they cannot be seen there at that time (daytime). The king star in Leo, Regulus, is 7 degrees away. Also of interest is that from Cairo, the closest approach of the planets to each other occurs when Al Nitak (the Orion star of the Great Pyramid) crosses meridian, placing Regulus at the Christ Angle (see my great Pyramid page). This then also puts the conjunction at 33.3 degrees (26.3 +7).
