astronomy
Celestial objects and the phenomena that surrounds them. What lies above the earth forever out of reach. From moons, to stars, galaxies, and beyond.
20/20 Vision: January 2020's Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Cancer
What is a Lunar Eclipse? A Lunar Eclipse happens when the Earth stands between the Moon and the Sun, blocking off sunlight from the Moon. Since the Moon has no light of its own, a Lunar Eclipse will look to us as if the Moon has disappeared. While a Solar Eclipse coincides with the New Moon, a Lunar Eclipse always coincides with the Full Moon.

Happy New Year: December 2019's New Moon Solar Eclipse
On December 26th, 2019, there was a New Moon Solar Eclipse at about 4'06 degrees Capricorn. Because this Eclipse is so close to both New Years Eve and the Winter Solstice, I think it's energy is a good preview for the themes of the year ahead.

Houses of the Zodiac: House #7
Do you know what your birth chart says? Or, do you even know what a birth chart is? Your birth chart is based off of the time, location, and date of your birth. At the time when you were born, every planet and star and thing up there in the universe was in a specific place. Doesn't seem like it matters, but it absolutely does. Your birth chart displays where all those planets and stuff were, and this contributes to the magic that is your personality.

The Astrology of the 2020 Elections: Julian Castro
Introduction In 2016, I saw that the astrological community was very divided on who was going to win the presidential elections, but I noticed that these astrologers had one thing in common: their predictions were driven more by bias than astrology. Hilary Clinton supporters were predicting her win, while Trump supporters predicted his win. Not once did I see a Democrat predict Trump's victory nor did a Republican predict Clinton's. For someone actually wanting to study astrology, it was very disappointing.

I Love You but I Hate You: December 2019's Full Moon in Gemini
On Thursday, December 12th, 2019, at approximately 12:12 AM EST (or in other words, just a little after midnight on the night of Wednesday, December 11th), we will have a Full Moon at 19'51 degrees Gemini, sign of the twins. Those of you who are into numerology might think it should be significant that we should have a Full Moon at 12:12 on 12/12. This Full Moon is an especially major one because it's the last of the year, before the Solar Eclipse on December 26th. Here's what to expect.

My Favorite Constellation
Have you ever stopped to ponder the Universe? It’s overwhelming, really. One billion trillion stars, thirty billion planets, ten billion galaxies; and then there is me. One speck of dust in this great big cosmos. Today I found myself laying under the Colorado sky. Staring at the darkness as the stars blinked back at me and the moonlight kissed my cheeks goodnight. At three AM everyone in my little town of Erie had long been asleep. I looked to my left and there sat my dog Jax, he would have rather been asleep. Yet he sat with me under that clear night sky as I lost track of time and my restless mind jumped from one thought to another.

Radio Astronomy Driving New Competencies and Innovation
Radio astronomy involves studying celestial objects at radio frequencies. It’s a more favored approach to observational astronomy because the amplitude and phase of radio waves are relatively easier to measure than that of photons or light waves. Radio astronomy is conducted through radio telescopes using techniques like radio interferometry and aperture synthesis.

Fire Signs (Mid November Energy Readings)
Just before things couldn't have gotten any worse, they did anyways, Aries. Seems like some flame throwers had a run of bad luck. People weren't seeing eye to eye with you and it seemed like there was conflict every week internally or externally of you. Some of you had to bite the bullet coming out of October and just accept and forgive the fact that you were wrong about some things. Although things were pretty bad, you stuck it out because ultimately what this year taught you is that things get worse before they get better.

Full Moon in Taurus
If you like this piece make sure to tip me! Also make sure to check out my Etsy shop "TheArtisan Tarot" or www.tarotbymoon.com for your free mini full moon guide. As well as the podcast The Mages Circle which is on Spotify! The full moon in Taurus is about the sector of life that deals with the second house. The second house is a ruler of the home life and material possessions. How we relate to our home life, how from there we recharge and find our time to go within more and learn about our selves, and more about our individual identity (as well as our spiritual identity) is our fundamental place where we learn how to exist as a part of society and where we have fun without individuality.
