I'm not convinced the September 2017 constellation was the fulfilment of John's vision.
He saw a 'great wonder'. Not something barely noticeable.
What he saw he saw in heaven - in the third heaven - not in the earth's atmosphere.
What he saw there wasn't a mere astronomical event. He saw a whole drama unfold, complete with setting, characters and plot.
The sign he saw there was probably not merely to predict a repeat of the same sign here - rather the sign he saw there likely predicted real events and outcomes here.
What events and outcomes? I wonder whether Revelation 12 is really a picture-form of the larger story of the Saviour and the Church - the Gospel.
