The Thousand Years
20 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.

4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They[a] had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy are those who share in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.

The Judgment of Satan
7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. 9 They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. 10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

The Judgment of the Dead
11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.

Symbolism and metaphors, the mythologies, .. are outstanding. There's a common message presented throughout all the various religious narratives!

It can be applied to current events,
and wider astrology.

Can't stay right now...
I'll be back, if not sooner, then later.
(Much later.. ~oy)

Hence no comments yet. I concur, we are in some time period right now today. Is today so confusing ? Yes.

were there peace and war on earth after Jesus? Yes.

Was there war when the reptilian (lizards/serpents/dracos) had power to spread their lies and deception? Yes

If you consider Renaissance era in the 1500s, thousand years don't add up from birth date of Jesus

The Islam people believe in the battle of Gog and Magog but not the Christian Armageddon. There is a place somewhere in the Caucasian mountains where a tall wall was built (perhaps 5000 years ago) to keep them away from hurting the people who lived on the other side of the wall. Their myth says those "Gog and Magog" people dig to this day to come to the other side of the wall and attack , rape, loot and destroy the people on the other side.
To me , Gog and Magog denotes the barbarian race.
