OK...now this is BIZARRE. Sun came up at 148 degrees Wednesday...134 this morning.

I know some of you might think I've lost it, but we've had so few visible sunrises lately here (mostly stormy and heavy overcast here in recent weeks) that both my wife and I have been paying a bit more attention to them this week (the two times we've been able to see them) and SOMETHING VERY WEIRD is happening.

I am not an astronomer, but I do have a telescope that I can use (occasionally) and I have been very interested in astronomy since I was a kid. I watch the skies quite a bit as a normal course, just to keep an eye on contrails, to look for meteorites, etc. Now, full disclosure: I have also been paying quite a bit of attention to the "Planet X/Nibiru" stuff this year, because it seems to be growing in intensity (and often in stupidity) on the net, and because the Bible does tell us repeatedly that there will be signs in the skies as the end time approaches.

Here are just a few examples:

Luke 21:11:
"and there will be great earthquakes, and in various places plagues and famines; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven."

Jeremiah 10:2:
"Thus says the LORD, 'Do not learn the way of the nations, And do not be terrified by the signs of the heavens Although the nations are terrified by them';"

Revelation 12:1 :
"A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars;"

Revelation 12:3 :
"Then another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems."

Joel 2:30:
"I will display wonders in the sky and on the earth, Blood, fire and columns of smoke."

Matthew 24:30:
"And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY with power and great glory."

Revelation 15:1 :
"Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven angels who had seven plagues, which are the last, because in them the wrath of God is finished."

We are also told many times in Scripture to be watchful, and specifically to look for the signs of his imminent return. Here are just a quick couple examples of that:

1 Corinthians 16:13:
Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.

Matthew 24:42:
Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.

Now, on Wednesday morning, we both watched and remarked that the Sun was coming up very far south... My wife grabbed her phone with a geopositioning-type app on it, pointed at the Sun's location just as it was rising, and it said it was coming up at 148 degrees. That's SOUTH of due Southeast. (East is 90, and South is 180.) We talked about it a bit, but (like dummies) did not photograph it. Now, I know the sun rises more southerly as we approach the winter solstice, but....wait....

Now, as the Sun came up this morning we both noticed it was coming up far more easterly (normally). We measured a bit after sunrise because we weren't really awake yet, or thinking of it at the time it came up, or paying as close of attention to it as we should have, and with it already up as high as you can see it in the photo below it was at 140 degrees. Now, it was a lot further east at the actual rising (than in the photo) before I thought about grabbing that app again, or the camera. I am going to guesstimate it came up at around 132-136 degrees.

Here is the photo I took this morning with the Sun already up and at 140 degrees:

The Southeast corner of the field is at the MIDDLE of this photo, where the trees drop down and make a lower endpoint to the field of view than elsewhere. On Wednesday, the Sun came up just to the RIGHT of that corner.

The Earth must be wobbling. I know it normally wobbles a little, but this is a far greater wobble than I have ever noticed before. Sure, the wife's app could be off, BUT IT IS THE RELATIVE CHANGE FROM WEDNESDAY TO THIS MORNING that matters, not whether or not the actual readings are highly accurate.

I don't know if it's Planet X or something else causing this but, SOMETHING WEIRD is happening.

Any comments or thoughts appreciated. I will try to document this more in the coming days-- whenever we can see the rising Sun-- to see if it returns to rise in the SSE from SE again.
