THE Christian conspiracy theorist said that the "spiritual sign" he predicted - signalling seven years of "catastrophic events" for Earth triggered by the appearance of the mystery Planet X - DID appear in the sky on Saturday night.
David Meade said the astronomical sign - which was an alignment of the moon under the constellation of Virgo - was clearly visible and believes it signals the beginning of the "Tribulation" period in which the earth will be hit by natural disasters and nuclear war.
David Meade says he saw the celestial sign in the skies on Saturday night
Meade had said many people misinterpreted his theories and wrongly claimed he predicted the end of the world on September 23rd.
However he did predict that an unusual celestial arrangement involving the moon and the constellation would appear in the sky on September 23rd - and signal the "end of the world as we now know it".
Meade believes the astral sign was described in the bible's Book of Revelation which states, "A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head."
Meade told Sun Online: "It was indeed in the sky Saturday night.
"We could see it from our location. It indicates that this Autumn the Church Age could be ending, and we are in a new era of Bible Prophecy.
"I think it's the harbinger of a seven-year Tribulation period, beginning before the end of 2017."
Meade believes an asteroid attached to the debris field of Planet X may hit the earthier the next seven years
The "Tribulation" which Meade believes could start as soon as October 21st, will involve "nuclear exchanges between the US, Britain and our enemies – Russia, China, Iran and North Korea."
He also claims an asteroid named Wormwood, measuring at least three kilometers in diameters, which is attached to the "debris field of the Planet X star system" will hit earth at some point during the seven years.
Huge solar flares caused by the asteroid will bring down the electrical grid causing "unrestrained" looting and violence, he says.
He also believes that there will be a "Rapture" in which a billion Messianic Jews, Catholics, Protestants and non-denominational "believers" will be "removed from the earth".
Meade has predicted that the earth will be hit by seven years of catastrophic events
Meade, author of Planet X: The 2017 Arrival, continued: "The Rapture is probably a 'moving date' under God's control - I don't know if we can know it or not.
"Planet X appears during the first year of the Tribulation, to my best knowledge.
"Revelation is progressive. There may be more to come."
Space agency Nasa has repeatedly dismissed the theories about Planet X - also known as Nibiru - as an "internet hoax".
"The planet in question, Nibiru, doesn't exist, so there will be no collision," said Nasa.
"The story of Nibiru has been around for years (as has the 'days of darkness' tale) and is periodically recycled into new apocalyptic fables.
"There is no factual basis for these claims.
Nasa have denied the existence of Planet X
"If Nibiru or Planet X were real and headed for an encounter with the Earth … astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye."
However Meade believes there has been a huge cover up by Nasa, and that his theories are a truly "possible scenario".
