Is it time to order your astrology calendar, astrological Calendars differ from the common sort. Astrological calendars not only give the moon’s phase, but also its void of course & the aspects it makes to the sun & other planets, and the aspects sun & planets make to each other. Astrological calendars also tell when the moon, sun & planets enter each of the 12 signs of the zodiac, when planets station & go retrograde/direct, as well as note solar/lunar eclipses & lunar occultations. All precisely timed. A regular calendar will tell you the day of the week. An astrological calendar brings you the world, if you know how to read it.

Michele from the new moon journal- blog offers us a few ways to order an astrology calendar or how to make one ourselves.

Quicksilver Productions is already shipping the calendars. You may want to pick up a copy for yourself (they carry different versions). Celestial Influences is a complete astro calendar with an ephemeris. For those who don’t have astrology software to run charts, this calendar is great tool to have.

Do you feel sometimes like you are not yourself? Like there is someone else inside your body that makes you think and act like you wont normally do kind of like a wolf man at a full moon. A question smiler to what i described was asked in the post unmanageable emotions by celestial space astrology blog. Dipali answers that feelings and emotions are connected to the moon in the natal chart and you should see what is your sign in the natal moon there for your emotions most likely be affected by the lunar cycles.

If you have repressed or pent up emotions (crankiness, irritability, anger etc) , then they will get more stimulated during a full moon. What you may want to do is, using this self-knowledge about yourself, and consciously choose to find ways to express (before the full moon), feel and channel the emotional energy instead of letting it build up inside the ’safety shells.’  Of course there can be more areas to look at in the natal chart (such as house placement, aspects and current cycles) involved than just the moon sign. Yet, this is a good start.

One of the ways to make relationship works is to know your partner on astrology level, i mean that every sign has it’s own character and quirks that you should get to know and that would make it easier on you to connect with him/her.

That is exactly what offers Matthew the astrologer after he had observed a couple of cats….yeah cats.

Remember this, next time your Aries is being too “obnoxious,” your Taurus too “stubborn,” your Gemini too “unfocused,” your Cancer too “moody,” your Leo too “self-absorbed,” your Virgo too “picky,” your Libra too “wishy-washy,” your Scorpio too “intense,” your Sagittarius too “ungrounded,” your Capricorn too “dour,” your Aquarius too “weird,” or your Pisces too “emotional.”

I don’t usually write or even think so much about politics as I do now. It’s not only me it seems that most astrologers think, write and analyze politics. I guess that in a period of transition it is just natural to put this very enlightening tool into use.

In a world full of moment to moment changes, with the coming elections and with political insecurity it makes sense to apply astrology on candidates, states, processes and everything else to gain better understanding of the dynamics that rule our lives and most importantly help us make the best possible decisions.

There are some very interesting posts regarding the dynamic of the elections on Jude’s Threshold blog and there is an interesting series on Iran on Gryphon Astrology Blog on the astrological path to war no it is not about the future - the series is a very interesting analysis of Iran at the 80th but it is certianly worth reading.

If I have to say what is the biggest advantage of using astrology on political events old and new I would have to say the insight.

If we see under the surface of what’s going on we can all be wiser, know how to respond and at times know how to avoid undesired chain of events. Insights goes a long way in enabling each of us to see a better picture and act from a balanced place.

i admit I have a problem with Saturn and its dictates. Seeing people like the two men who have been banned from national parks after ‘vandalising’ a sign by correcting the grammar makes me really happy. I think the country should reward their service instead of defending the broken grammar on the signs all over.

Why not mend the little things that needs fixing?

I’ve really enjoyed Barbara analysis of their behavior as the influence of Saturn in Virgo and even if I’m much older than 28 and my Saturn return is long behind me I can really see the wisdom of the changes that their generation can brings and does bring to many things in the social sphere.

Good for them.
