Artemis

My dream from 2011
I was standing and there was a woman standing directly in front of me. A foreign woman and she was looking directly into my eyes. She was very close and we were standing face-to-face. I could see age on her face, as in fine wrinkles at her eyes and mouth. She was beautiful. She then stepped away and began dancing in a repeated rhythmic move over and over across the top of a hill. The music was ritualistic in nature as a drum would beat the same rhythmic beats repeatedly. All along the hill were bulls with long horns standing in perfect formation. There were three bulls across and three bulls down. They all moved in exactly the same way with the beat of the music. They would lift their left front leg, right front leg, right back leg, and the left back leg. They all did this over and over again to the beat of the music in perfect formation. Their heads would follow the woman dancing across the hill. Their eyes would never be taken off of her. It was like they were hypnotized by her. The woman looked at the time I thought like maybe an American Indian, because of a headdress she was wearing and what appeared to be some sort  of braids down both sides of her head. I noticed she was bronze in color. Every part of her was the same color, her skin, her clothes, even her hair. I even noticed her eyelashes and eyebrows were the same color. I just stood there and observed as she would dance to the rhythmic beat of the music going back and forth on the top of that hill, and the nine bulls standing along the side of the hill joined her in perfect rhythm. They all just kept repeating the same steps over and over and over again. I woke up.

I knew this dream had a meaning to it, but I could not get an answer from the Lord in prayer immediately. A few weeks later I would be in Sunday service kneeling at the alter praying and would see a scorpion in front of me right at my right knee. It did not sting me or run away, it just remained motionless. A friend that I had shared the dream with also was with me and said, "I just keep thinking about your dream and I believe this scorpion has something to do with it."

I went home and began to pray about the meaning of this and I got on my computer and typed "goddess and bulls." An article popped up on Artemis. A Greek goddess that is known as the bull goddess. I looked at the picture and saw the headdress and what appears to be some kind of braids on each side of the headdress. In Greek mythology Artemis sent a scorpion to sting Orion and brought about his death. Orion would later become a constellation and Artemis would make sure that the scorpion also became a constellation.

Today we would know this pagan goddess as Diana from the scriptures in Acts 19. There was a great commotion about, the Way in verse 23. A silversmith was outraged at Paul and these others sharing the gospel because of the money Diana"s statues brought in. Idol worship was profitable and it would be this that would bring the city to confusion and ready to riot. In verse 27 it states that Asia and the world worshiped the goddess Diana in that day. 

Artemis was also known as the goddess of the night. the bronze would represent her as sexually unrestrained. unrestrained by law or general morality. A hill is a place of idolatry and the music summons demons to seduce those that are listening to its hypnotic beats. This nation is being drawn into this hypnotic state of perversion and a rapid decline of morality . Diana is demonic and she is still at work today seducing, and she sends her scorpion of death to those that are deceived by her beauty. 

Proverbs 6
25 Don’t lust for her beauty.
    Don’t let her coy glances seduce you.
26 For a prostitute will bring you to poverty,[b]
    but sleeping with another man’s wife will cost you your life.
27 Can a man scoop a flame into his lap
    and not have his clothes catch on fire?
28 Can he walk on hot coals
    and not blister his feet?

This dream rings truer today then in 2011. 

Don't be caught up by the fleshly pleasures of this world. The demons are working on overtime for your soul! 

Proverbs 7
1 Follow my advice, my son;
    always treasure my commands.
2 Obey my commands and live!
    Guard my instructions as you guard your own eyes.
3 Tie them on your fingers as a reminder.
    Write them deep within your heart.
4 Love wisdom like a sister;
    make insight a beloved member of your family.
5 Let them protect you from an affair with an immoral woman,
    from listening to the flattery of a promiscuous woman.
