Rev. 15:1 And I saw
another sign in heaven, great and marvellous,
seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.
John was transported in the Spirit to Heaven, he saw all the Visions in Heaven, a sign is a Vision.
The Woman is Israel, not Mary or the Church, Genesis 37:9 tells us this.

You are all looking to Astrology, no matter how many times thy lie to you and tell you its Astronomy. And God forbid us from looking to Divination. This came from Babylon and is if Satan.
Divinatory basis
The history of Babylonian astrology shows the development of astronomical knowledge within the context of divination. A collection of 32 tablets with inscribed liver models, dating from about 1875 BC, are the oldest known detailed texts of Babylonian divination, and these demonstrate the same interpretational format as that employed in celestial omen analysis.

System of Interpretation
The Babylonian priests accordingly applied themselves to the task of perfecting a system of interpretation of the phenomena to be observed in the heavens, and it was natural that the system was extended from the moon, sun and five planets to the more prominent and recognizable fixed stars.
The interpretations themselves were based (as in the case of divination through the liver) chiefly on two factors:
- On the recollection or on written records of what in the past had taken place when the phenomenon or phenomena in question had been observed.......
I am aghast Christians actually are looking to Astrology.
