I love it when astronomers think they know everything about space, but they don't.
I love it even more when people who have absolutely no training in anything space related think they know more about space than someone trained like an astronomer.

LOL So what training do you need to just look at stars and see things?
Mayans had more knowledge than modern man and modern man laughs at them. Sad how people are now a days.

I can find no evidence that comet Holmes appeared as a blue star. Nor do you provide any statement that the blue star was a reference to something other than color.
I think this claim that comet Holmes was the blue star of the Hopi prophecy is a false claim.
The Blue Star is seen as the starting herald of a Great Purification period beginning prior to 2012. This would last for 7 years in total. Interestingly comet Holmes 17P travels an orbit around the sun 7 years long. That fact makes for a rather ominous coincidence if you ask this researcher. That should mean the great purification runs through 24-10-2007 to 24-10-2014.
It is said that it will begin when the Saquasohuh (Blue Star) Kachina dances in the plaza and removes his mask. Which partly relates to a certain ceremonial dance involving a specific religious mask from what I understand. It is however also explained as an actual solar object. First it would be represented in dances and later seen in the sky by all peoples of the Earth.
The Hopi ceremonies will supposedly no longer be carried out once the "Kachina" removes his mask. This will be during a dance in the plaza that is held before uninitiated children. In all likelihood that may refer to one of the dances allowed to be viewed by white tourists. Although for a while there will be no more ceremonies, eventually the ‘Oraibi’ will be rejuvenated with new faith and new ceremonies, marking the start of a new cycle of life.
Images of the object show that its matter continued to expand outward and that it became the largest object in our solar system, larger even than the sun. The pictures beamed back to Earth show an enormous object with a bluish tinge. A blue object the size of a star.
I would say that this comet turning itself into a blue star sized object fits the prophetic mould.

Look further down the article where the author is justifying that comet Holmes is the blue star.

It seems that this person is using the images taken with a blue filter to justify the claim. In fact, the person is wrong since the photo posted on that site is not one "beamed to Earth."
A little further down the author states

The article is fairly clear that the color of the comet is important. That color was yellow or white , not blue.

Interesting, at least the comet cluster part. Without knowing anything about this channeled information i came to the same concluson after investigating all the evidences i can found on the internet. Ancient legends talk about a red comet like object which returns to the solar system every 3600-4000 years and causing global catastrophes. Sometimes bigger sometimes smaller depending on the Earth's position. You can clearly see this comet cluster's influence on the Moon and Mars. It approaches the solar system from the South.
Mars South Pole:

Mars North Pole:

Moon South Pole:
www.cosmosmagazine.com...
Moon North:
www.l2ms.com...
There are much more craters on the South poles which indicates that these planets (and Earth) meets much more impact from the south. The source can be this comet cluster.
The interpretation of Figure 5 is that the craters are indeed giving evidence of progressive loss of smaller craters -- an environment different from the moon. Probably the agent is infill by windblown dust, which obliterates smaller craters.
In the 80s and 90s astronomers noticed that the distribution of craters on these objects was asymmetric: they were more heavily cratered on their leading hemispheres which makes sense since it seems obvious that these areas should be struck more often.
Recent lunar crater studies have revealed an asymmetric distribution of rayed craters on the lunar surface. The asymmetry is related to the synchronous rotation of the Moon: there is a higher density of rayed craters on the leading hemisphere compared with the trailing hemisphere.
"Now there was a bright new moon, and as usual in that phase its horns were tilted toward the east and suddenly the upper horn split in two. From the midpoint of this division a flaming torch sprang up, spewing out, over a considerable distance, fire, hot coals, and sparks. Meanwhile the body of the moon, which was below, writhed ...[and] throbbed like a wounded snake."
I noticed the moon had huge asteroid craters, but never knew mars was that bad as well. More evidence of something like Nibiru, the red purifier, the red comet, etc. causing mayhem.

I thought you might be interested in reading this story.
How Young is the Lunar Crater Giordano Bruno?
About 30 years ago it was supposed that people saw the impact that formed this crater.This was written about events in 1178.
Is this the event that caused the crater on the moon? It's an interesting read and I won't provide the answer here.
While this explanations is of course true, it does not explain why there are much more craters on the south side of the moon compared to the north side.
However this is a good example how much we don't know about things. Some says Giordano Bruno crater is 4 M years old, some says it is just 800 years old. The difference is huge.

Who claims that comet Holmes was the blue star of the prophecy? The Hopi? Was this the tribal council? Can you tell me who you mean when you say the Hopi?
Does anyone here know what the color of the comet was to the naked eye? Was it blue? Or was it white or yellow? Please tell me the color?
We already know that no brown dwarf can be within thousands of AU of the sun. So there is no planet sized object with 320AU of the sun that we do not know about.
Google Holmes comet and you will see pictures of it. They state that the naked eye saw it as blue.
It became easily visible to the naked eye as a bright yellow "star" in Perseus
