I have an answer for your question of the meaning of the number 144,000 in Revelations.
12 I think represents the Zodiac signs
a solar grid
12x12=144
x180 degrees as opposed to 360 degrees
=
25,920 years
It's the length of an axial precession
Yes it is astrological.

it's important to keep in mind this length of time is an estimate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Year
It's not like we've been around 25,000 years to witness the next axial precession, and the other thing is I'm skeptical the 365.25 estimate of year can ever be truly accurate. 365.2422
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_calendar
The Julian calendar went out of use because it was improperly assumed 365.25 was the length of time for the Earth to complete an orbit around the sun, and some societies recognized 365 days and significant but did not account for a leap year at all.
There's just the pull of gravity and quakes, I bet the 265.2422 calculation loses a millisecond every year.
