1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing .

This August 2011, the annual Perseid Meteor Shower will coincide with the Full Moon on 13th. We get to enjoy both the full moon view, as well as the shooting stars at the same time.
Coincidentally, in the movie "IMPACT", crowds of people were waiting to watch a particularly rare meteor shower, a spectacular sky event. Instead, something else came and hit the moon. The sky-watchers there were greatly stunned by the sudden catastrophe. Freaky movie. But still just a movie.

Perseid Meteor Shower: In biblical astronomy, "PERSEUS" is one of the 3 decans of Aries (blessings consummated). PERSEUS means "the breaker delivering". It also represents the "Hero" or "Bridegroom".
According to http://heavensspeak.blogspot.com/2009/11/aries-blessings-consummated.html ...
The third decan is the Hero or Bridegroom (Perseus). Even as the Ram breaks the bands of death, it is the Hero Perseus who loosed the chains of hell from the Chained Princess.
