Neville Goddard Prophecy Astrology Chart They Will Tell Of The Work That Neville Did

01 Sep Neville Goddard Prophecy & Astrology Chart “They Will Tell of the Work That Neville Did.”

Editor’s Note: A question about astrology comes up from time to time from students of Neville. On one hand, Neville in quite a few lectures dismisses astrology as “monkey bones,” “abracadabra,” and a crutch for those who haven’t found the power within. Then on the other hand, he spoke of the “Strange Lady” and the “Prophet Jordan” who foretold his destiny.

So, did he believe in the stars or not?

Even though Neville was once an astrologer, he rejected astrology as a cause (the idea that a planet dictates your bank account or your marriage), the old adage “Astra inclinant, sed non obligant” (The stars incline us, they do not bind us), but he accepted true prophecy as a witness to the “finished play.” He proved the former was a placebo with his famous “Norma” story, demonstrating that her belief worked even when the chart was mathematically wrong.

He never denied that one can look past the veil of Caesar’s world and see the script God had already written.

…

Neville mentioned that he was once an astrologer, even taught a woman, Norma astrology at one point, and dropped it all after understanding The Law and The Promise.

But there are also some mentions in his lectures of various prophecies about his life and he often mentions we are in a marvelous play of repeating roles with “no remembrance of former things. We have a little memory . . no remembrance of former things; nor shall there be any remembrance of things that will come later”

Some lectures mentioning astrology:

From “I Remember When”

In the 12th chapter of the Book of Numbers, we are told: “If there is a prophet among you, I the Lord will make myself known unto him in a vision and I will speak with him in a dream.” A scriptural prophet is not one who tells your fortune, but one who hears the Word of God and fulfills it. If you asked me if I were a prophet I would answer in the affirmative. I am not one who prophesies by looking into a crystal ball, teacup leaves, cards, or astrology, but one who has fulfilled scripture. I know I am the central figure of scripture called “the Father.” I came into the world to fulfill scripture and share my revelations, my experiences concerning the power to create.

In this simple way God revealed his power to create, his power to remember when! Having nothing, you can become aware of being surrounded by wealth, and feeling wealthy you can say: “I remember when I had nothing.” Does that statement not imply that the state of poverty no longer exists for you? I remember when I was unknown. I remember when I couldn’t sell a book. I remember when I couldn’t sell anything I wrote. I remember when. Now you fill in the events, the desires and the fulfillments. I remember when. Do not those words imply memory?

So, you are playing a part, and you are allowed to interpret the part; but you came in on cue and you will depart on cue; and in spite of what our wise men called doctors today are telling us that they can prolong life . . they are not prolonging life . . you were born on time, as told you in the 3rd chapter of the book of Ecclesiastes:

“A time to be born, a time to die; a

time to laugh, a time to cry;”…

There is not a thing new under the sun. The play is finished.

It is being said about the landing on the moon: “See? This has never happened before.” It has been in ages past, but there is no remembrance of former things. We have a little memory . . no remembrance of former things; nor shall there be any remembrance of things that will come later among those who come after. We think it is all now, like a play.

You go to a play tonight. I saw a play last night. But to you, these are all new, and you’ll laugh tonight, as I did the night before. And you’ll cry, as I cried the night before. And you will think it is all new as the whole thing unfolds before your eyes; and I saw it the night before. And this is a marvelous “play” in which we are cast for a purpose. There is a purpose behind the entire thing.
