WHAT IS LENT?

“Jesus in his baptism and forty days fast imitated the passage of the Sun through the Constellation Aquarius, where John, [Anup] Joannes, or Janus the Baptizer had his domicile, and baptized the earth with his yearly rains. Having been baptized in Jordan, he fasted forty days in the wilderness, in imitation of the passage of the sun from the constellation Aquarius through the fishes to the lamb or ram of march.durning the forty days when the sun is among the fishes (in the sign of the fish) the faithful Catholics, Episcopalians, and mahommedans abstain from meat and live upon the fishes durning the season of LENT, as did the jews and pagans, and did also jesus”-The World’s Sixteen Crucified Saviors By Kersey Graves p.95-96

Fish (Pisces) = Lent, and Ram [Lamb](Aries) = Easter/Passover. Makes sense to me.
