Hiya, this week we are doing some Astronomy #sadface Bear with me on this one, it will make sense at some point and you don't actually have to understand this to make a chart.... (coz the computer does it all for you!!) However learning it does give you more Astronomical knowledge which is always a good thing!   Here are the charts we are using. Celia S time of birth 00.01am in Northern England UK, Taurus MC   compare to Tracy Marks time of birth 12.36pm Miami Beach, Florida USA, Libra MC   and Queen Elizabeth time of birth 2.40am London UK, Scorpio MC

This week is all about Planet Returns.  This is when a planet goes back to be the same sign and degree that is was in when you were born. In Michael's chart we are showing his chart with his Saturn return just coming up showing in green on the outside wheel.. ..and the fact that he had Jupiter retrograde in his chart in the sign of 6 degrees of Cancer in the 11th house Here is what the ephemeris page on Astro.com looks like and here is Michael's Jupiter return date and what that looks like on the ephemeris, I've highlighted in blue

As mentioned this is a great book that covers what you do really need to know: How and Why Astrology even started. Here's the link to the book The Astrologers & Their Creed by Christopher McIntosh  https://amzn.to/2HCw7ok Here's Dr McIntosh's Uni Page:  https://humanities.exeter.ac.uk/history/staff/cmcintosh/ Illustration This is the piccie from the book showing the ecliptic:Sun's apparent path (among the stars) through the year. And the Equator : imaginary line around the Earth at equal distance to the Poles Quote from page 24: These points are what we would now call the solstices and the equinoxes. The diagram below explains these terms more clearly. The sphere is the Earth and the horizontal circle round it represents the equator (imagining that the Earth's axis is vertical). The tilted circle represents the ecliptic, that is the path that the Sun appears to trace around the Earth during the course of a year. The equinoxes are the points where the ecliptic crosses the equator, once in the spring and on

This week I'm discussing Wikipedia which is massively allergic to any Astrology information...even worse when you read about Homeopathy...(Hypnotherapy isn't as badly treated thankfully) Here's my article on women and Wikipedia http://homeopathicpacifist.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/wikipedia-editing-and-women.html And just so you know, my stats are actually larger than I mentioned There are now over 18,200 downloads to date 22-4-2018 so you're learning with quite a number of other Astrology interested folk!!
