I will try to be as clear as possible, the Lord gave me that word and quite honestly I didn't know what it meant. As I researched I thought it meant rise of Sirius, because people make a big deal about it's heliacal rise. But now I think it means the rise of our sun on the longest day of the year because on that date, it will be in the eastern gate, the silver gate in the heavens.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
lightning: G796 FROM 797: LIGHTNING BY ANALOGY GLARE, LIGHT. BRIGHT/SHINING
797 PROBABLY FROM 792: FLASH AS LIGHNING
792 PROBABLY FROM THE BASE G4766 STAR AS STROWN OVER THE SKY
EAST G395 an-at-ol-ay'
From G393; a rising of light, that is, dawn (figuratively); by implication the east (also in plural): - dayspring, east, rising.
From this web site, a clearer picture is understood:

Key points:
*There is a gate in heaven. One day, heaven will extend through this gate unto earth. There is a gate on earth. On that day this gate will first receive the extension of heaven. Both of these gates are known respectively as golden gates.
The golden gate on earth was located in the eastern wall of the temple mount in Jerusalem. It was at a location in the wall where an intersecting east-west ley line from the gate unto Mount Nebo that connected the Altar of the Red Heifer on the Mount of Olives and other historical points with the Holy of Holies within the temple on the temple mount. Historians write that the doors to this gate in the Herodian temple were covered with Corinthian Bronze, an alloy of copper, silver and gold. Due to its unique luster, especially in the sunlight of dawn or eventide, Corinthian Bronze was considered more valuable than gold itself. In the ancient world, gold represented the gods, silver represented men and copper represented judgment. In the East, the elders sat at the town gate making decisions and pronouncing judgments.
Before this gate was termed as the Golden Gate it was known as the Temple Gate Beautiful throughout antiquity. (Acts 3:2) In the fourth century, Jerome chose to translate the Greek word horaios, meaning beautiful, with the Latin word aurea, meaning gold, for the Latin Vulgate. His reasons for doing so are uncertain, however, when the figurative significance of Corinthian Bronze is considered, his reasons may not be far from the mark.
According to scriptural prophecy, the Lord Jesus Christ and his glory shall enter the temple mount by way of this eastern gate.
Ez 43:
1: Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east:
2: And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory.
From Acts 3:2, Beautiful is G5611
ὡραῖος
hōraios
ho-rah'-yos
From G5610; belonging to the right hour or season (timely), that is, (by implication) flourishing (beauteous [figuratively]): - beautiful.
Right now, the sun will rise at the gate which is shown here on the Summer Soltice, have a look on Stellarium: that's where the sun is:
***So the gate is a measurement of time, where the sun is rising is our signal of when.
Hathor-Isis represents the crossing of the ecliptic and the
Milky Way near the Gemini-Taurus nexus.(note ancients knew of this time, but they kept it hidden)
So the word heliacal rise is a term for when a star rises above the horizon before the sun appears. It will only happen one day a year. Let's use Sirius as an example, because the Egyptians used it as a time marker for the flooding of the Nile. But I think the prophetic word has to do with the sun itself, rising for it's longest day of the year. The Plains Indians would use heliacal risings to signal the coming and going of the solstice. So I think they were right on using helical risings to find the date for the solstice rather than other things, flooding and the like. The key here is the solstice.
GATES IN ANTIQUITY
continuing on from the link:
In the ancient east the names of temple gates were significant as were the gates believed to lead into and out of heaven. The primary gate of heaven was known as the golden gate. From it, the gods ascended and descended. This gate has been written of from antiquity to modern times.
The Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh, written several centuries after the worldwide flood, contained the first reference to this gate. After the death of his beloved companion Enkidu, Gilgamesh searched for answers about how to obtain eternal life from his ancestor Noah who resided in the center of the heavens with the gods. After Gilgamesh crossed the celestial sea he came to the gate in the Mountain of the Sun guarded by scorpion men. This gate opened to a passage that led to a paradisiacal land in which there was another sea with a central island where Noah dwelt. This epic was far reaching in that day and time. It was translated into Akkadian, Elamite, and Hittite. It was also adapted and presented as plays. This epic endured in Near Eastern cultures for over a millennium.
In a similar fashion the second millennium BC Egyptian Book of Gates places Ra, the sun god, in a celestial boat passing through successive guarded gates and passages filled with flames to emerge in the waters of Nu represented by a circle or disk in the sky. Ra then entered the boat of the gods that moved to a central island represented by the circular body of Osiris.
This belief in a gateway to and from heaven has been universally maintained through out the ages in the writings of poets, philosophers, priests, prophets, monks, magi and mystics. It has also been recorded in the symbols of kings and emperors like the imperial seal of Cyrus the Great and the labarum of Constantine. Even today one of the more popular songs is entitled, Knocking on Heaven’s Door and a common figurative expression is the pearly gates referring the entrance to heaven.
Where then is this gate in heaven located? It is located at one of the two points where the two great celestial circles appear to intersect. The first great circle is that of the zodiac. This is the circuit on which the sun proceeds through the heavens during its annual cycle. It is named the ecliptic. The other is the circle of the Milky Way or circle of our galaxy. Its center line is named the galactic equator. We have many examples of this hidden in plain sight today, it's occulted for the few 'who know'. Here are four examples of the crossings of the circles:

The intersection of the circles between Taurus and Gemini is known as the silver gate of heaven. The intersection of these two circles between Scorpio and Sagittarius is known as the golden gate of heaven. The galactic center lies visually from our solar system along a line that passes through the golden gate. Notice on the video I Pet Goat II, at the end, when the false messiah is on the duat (boat that travels the solar system) and it's got clouds in the shapes of Scorpio, the scorpio and the eagle? (see stinger just above the pyramid, and the eagle head not showing in pic but the left wing is shown) It's symbolozing the gate in which the sun is rising!! It is symbolizing NOW, in this season, the sun is passing across the golden gate of heaven on the winter solstice 2012. That was the meaning of 2012.
The ancient cultures like those of the Egyptians and Babylonians were visually aware of this slight westward processional movement of the sun from its succeeding winter solstice positions. And they were aware of the future time period when the sun would cross over this golden gate of heaven on the winter solstice.
The golden gate on the winter solstice signaled the end of corrupted man’s tenure on earth was fairly common knowledge in the ancient East. Corresponding evidence also suggests that they knew that corrupted man’s tenure would end about 6,000 years after the “fall” of Adam.
So in conclusion, I think the word I received meant all is going to go down on the solstice: war will start Is 17, the destruction of Damascus and Is 6 tells us when the cities lie desolated then the scales will be removed, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory. He will come into his temple, the glory will fill the temple (us) and he will usher in a harvest like we or anyone has ever seen.
