Moon Visions

(a testimony by Martin Sollanych)

On Holy Thursday, (Easter) 1985, two days before my scheduled baptism in the Catholic Church, I was still undecided. I began to read the Book of Acts from the Bible to see how the early Christians were baptised. Upon discovering what was needed was God's help, I prayed, and received what I believe is a unique gift from the Holy Spirit, a revelation of biblical pictures which I see and interpret from photographs of the Moon. Perhaps if the "Sun Dancing at Fatima" was the first part, this could be the fullfillment of a second part of the following prophecy from Jesus:

"there will be strange things happening to the sun, moon, and the stars". - Luke 21:25.

The following are links to my completed paintings. Click on the link to view each painting in a larger size with a description and a side by side comparison with the area of the moon photograph which I used for inspiration:

Full Moon Photograph used for inspiration:

The red square highlights the area which provided the inspiration for the Nativity. The blue rectangle highlights the area corresponding to the the Last Supper / Holy Eucharist painting. The green square highlights the area used for the Garden of Eden painting. The teal blue outlines the area corresponding to the Transfiguration.
