Crescent Saturn

Explanation: Saturn never shows a crescent phase — from Earth. But when viewed from beyond, the majestic giant planet can show an unfamiliar diminutive sliver. This image of crescent Saturn in natural color was taken by the robotic Cassini spacecraft in May. The image captures Saturn’s majestic rings from the side of the ring plane opposite the Sun — the unilluminated side — another vista not visible from Earth. Pictured are many of Saturn’s photogenic wonders, including the subtle colors of cloud bands, the complex shadows of the rings on the planet, the shadow of the planet on the rings, and the moons Mimas (2 o’clock), Janus (4 o’clock), and Pandora (8 o’clock). As Saturn’s moves towards equinox in 2009, the ring shadows are becoming smaller and moving toward the equator. During equinox, the rings will be nearly invisible from Earth and project only an extremely thin shadow line onto the planet.

……update on Blogging

blog posterA quick glance at the stats page shows that as of today there have been 7,157 hits on this site and that doesn’t count my visits. Wow, it may not be much with respect to other sites, but for me………that’s amazing! I’m beginning to understand the words “accelerated” & “exponential” in a whole new way.
Since launching this site in February I have learned a lot. Not just the techie stuff, but also about what it means to be on the World Wide Web. You can get lost out here, and you can get found. Blogging, at first, seems to be a counter-culture type of medium. However, for me, I have found it to be a lively, creative way to express your ideas, and check in with others – both at ground-level and high-ground. After all we’re all here……. and there’s just one of us here as well. Comprende’?

So, I’m starting to think about how to better organize and present my ideas as well as how to publish an e-book. It’s a world-wide wonder………….the internet.

10-28-2011? The End of Astrology too?

October 11, 2007 · 36 Comments

mayan pyramid

I just finished reading Calleman’s book on the Mayan Calender.

Prior to that I finished Barbara Hand Clow’s book that she wrote to discuss Calleman’s book.

Daniel Pinchbeck’s book titled: 2012 adds a few different twists to the unfolding story.

According to some of these modern-day prophets & wizards, the Mayan’s really knew what they knew and their pyramids, writings, and most especially their calendars were amazing, physical testaments of their knowledge.

The Mayan Calendar is a  time-measurement tool that is tracking “spiritual” time……and their-in lies the dilemma. Our entire, planetary culture  has lost it’s ability to perceive’s what spiritual time’ is, with a few notable, exceptional, people.

But, don’t worry, be happy. We’ll understand soon. It’ll be right on time.  We’re now at the end of what they call, Day 5….a time of transitioning, a mid-point as such.

We can see the forks in the road, clearly. It is time to make conscious choices that improve the wellbeing of all beings………..or not.

Night 5 of the current ‘Underworld’ of the Mayans, begins this November and continues until Nov.2008  Day 6 begins Nov.08.

By Oct. 28, 2011 according to Calleman the Mayan Calendar ends.

What’s sooo interesting  to me about this is that the same time cycles appear in the calendars of the early Vedic Culture and they lived at least half a planet away from the Mayans. Similarities and synchronicities abound between the yogi’s and the mayans.

Whose calendar do you follow?

Why?

And more importantly;

Will Astrology be necessary after 2012?

Om shanti, shanti, shantihi…………………….
