Bible Revelation Symbolism

Anyone have any speculations on what revelations in the bible means? What do you think the symbolism means within the written chapters of Revelations? I do believe the Dragon who is the usher for the antichrist (or many antichrists) will be some sort of leader of the EU. As the EU mostly resembles the ancient Roman Empire in which Revelations states will rise again in the end times. This symbolizing the “beast from out of the sea” that is said to have 7 heads. One of the heads having a fatal wound that had healed. Meaning the demise of Rome years ago. Also on this beast one of the heads had crown of 12 horns on its head. Maybe this represents the 12 voting countries that have the real voting power in the EU. Also check out the EU order 666. Anyone else have a take on Revelations’ symbolism for the end of days?

Appreciate the OP potential, thanks for asking -I hadn't thought of it!

the dragon is obvious (and Red at that!)
-being from ancient times of old; ShaDaI ("allmighty") to Abraham (Ge.17:1) Isaac (28:3) Jacob (35:11) and Joseph (Ge.48:3) was the Chinese oracle writing name Shang-dTi (Ex.6:3) "Heavenly Emperor" (enthroned upon the heavens).

the antichrist is the ultimate unifier of the full extent of the Roman Empire.

The “beast from out of the sea” has been the Mediterranean Old-World

Are you in Europe that you stop there?

I think the first beast is the dragon. I also think the second beast (false seer) is a walking dead physical human angel body once the first beast, where the alive beast inhabiting the physical human angel body got cast out. A false seer is some physical body not alive from the inside though it still acts alive and looks alive from the outer appearence. What is walking dead can not use any of the 5 senses. There be some standing here, which shall not taste Of death...

The Second beast (false prophet) rises from a territory -the New World (US),

Babylon (gate to God) -Judeo-christianity causes
The Harlot -NY's Wall Street commercial competition alternative to conflict of warfare (Nuclear),

should I proceed beyond this?

Of course! I love speculation on what people have discovered and what and why they think these symbols mean.

with respect;

The "Revealing" of the Great Book is as an Index mostly composed of concepts internal or
explained elsewhere within the epic of Bible (some of this volume now being extraneous).

It is the "N.T." Prophetic book and arranges the appointed events in a series of courses
arriving to maturity (we would think of as geological periods and ages in human nature)

Originally composed (or Revealed) in Hebrew -the understood terms have been 're'written
in the Greek with but 0ne direct and 0ne indirect reliance on the Mythologies extant.
Directed to 7 Macedonian Congregations -it was written within an Aegean island cave.

It explains in script fashion History, the Present, the pending inevitable Future, and
the 0utcome as a plan of "GOD" (ELaH '0bjective' THEOS 'Concept') determined
from the very beginning and accomplished by way of the Lord of whom the message is
sent as a love letter invitation to His beloved Bride of humanity for which it all pertains....

got interrupted (apol.);

The Timeline is the Old Hebrew Calendar preserved by the Dead Sea Scrolls Jubilees and Enoch
based upon the Sevens Lampstand (Menorah) Weeks of Days and Years with Appointed days
He Himself has unto His met with several (Sabbath day, Passover, Pentacost) ordered
at Sinai and there are several remaining to be filled-full (Trumpets, Yom Kippur, Tabernacles)

The 24 "elders" are the courses of the priests (also a timekeeping mnemonic) redeemed
and there are 4 worshipfully comprehensive and circumspect entities instrumentally
as Drums/Blocks(percussion) Horns/Flutes(wind) Strings(chambers) Cymbals/Bells/Chimes

Seven 'time-lock' Seals keep the Deed/Title of the Earth successively 'cracked' (realized)
they open a descending scale intoning the name of YeHaUaH iy-eh-uw-oh-uh-ah-a'a
resolving in a response by Seven sizes of horns (Shofarim) resounding/reverberating,
in this part is the most verifiably date accurate prophecy known (with Matt.24:29,30)

The little scroll/book is not the Siddur but the part of the Torah having the Decalogue.
On receiving the transmition of Torah (BarMitzvah) the part ate with a drop of honey
It is refound /reproduced in its 0riginal state (Monospace script connecting the stars,
14x20 280 letters per side, reversing boustrophedon without spaces -last letters bow
formatting both the Exodus Table (His) and Deuteronomy Table (0urs)

Upon this Standard (Nots Agreed on) for one arriving to empowerment as trustworthy
goes out a measuring standard having both distinguishment and condemnation
which is only for those initiates willfully assembling for judgment as successors /inheritors

Two gematric language witnesses Hebrew (R-L) and Greek (L-R) face you holding hands
cut off they lay out in the streets of a great city as Egypt (MiTzaRIM "Limits")
and as Sodom (Social grouping in citizenship as privilege) that again/also crucifies Him
and the people there make Merry and give gifts one to another (yet the market fails).

The "Beast from the sea" echoes the animals of Daniel ch7, which appear to represent various empires. Hence probably a political system of some kind, certainly. For the relationship between first beast and second beast, perhaps we can compare the relationship between the Nazi state/ideology and Adolf Hitler personally. In one sense, the object of worship was the "volk"; in another sense, it was focussed on Hitler himself. He was the one who "made the image speak", as it were. Perhaps the future Beast/false prophet relationship will work in a similar way.
