Re: Asteroids in the Zodiac
Just in time for the new moon and equinox Ceres retrogrades into Virgo on the 21st of March, only a few hours after its opposition with the sun. There she'll be all spring* until the start of summer* around the 22nd of June. Juno also hangs out in Virgo for quite some time beginning October 18th. Sh...

Re: Asteroids in the Zodiac
Thank you so much for the reply. I thought no one was interested. I've got a lot more, such as the metals associated with them and so on.

Re: Great and Grand Conjunctions
What do you mean by the astronomical calendar?
Here's a chart I made of every great conjunction from the one in 2020 to the year 2200. All but once do they take place in an air sign.

Re: Asteroids in the Zodiac
The addition of asteroids gives a balanced sex ratio to the gods. Here is a list of the Olympian gods paired with their spouses (or lovers) according to the lectisternium of the Twelve Great gods in 217 BC by the Augustan historian Livy. Jupiter–Juno Neptune–Minerva Mars–Venus Phoebus–Diana Vulcan–V...

Asteroids in the Zodiac
For most of history there were only seven planets in the zodiac. Five of them appear twice; on the solar side for day rulerships and on the lunar for night. https://i.imgur.com/YDPfVGK.png With the discovery of Uranus and Neptune this redundancy was reduced somewhat. https://i.imgur.com/5Gs32QV.png ...

Re: Venus transits and exploration
I'll bet that not only did Captain Cook know about the transit of Venus, being that it was the ostensible reason for his mission, but that Venus would eclipse something else besides the Sun. One planet transiting or occulting another is a very rare event. The last time that has happened the year was...

Re: Venus transits and exploration
I almost forgot to mention that not only is the 250th anniversary of Cook's discovery approaching, but the 500th of the start Magellan's voyage in September 2019!

Re: Venus transits and exploration
I would think that its being opposite Aries is right. As a side note, yet another spacecraft to visit Venus was called Pioneer 12 or Pioneer Venus 1. Hmmmm. Pioneer_Venus_orbiter.jpg There are other ones as well. Henry Morton Stanley was the most famous explorer in the nineteenth century. He was not...

Venus transits and exploration
The transits of Venus are very rare, coming in pairs every 120 years or so. I bring this up because it has recently been the 250th anniversary of the most famous one of all. Have you ever noticed that there is a correlation between the transits and great events in exploration? vts_1518_geo.gif Magel...
