May 26th to May 31st 2003
MONDAY MAY 26 Eclipse of the Sun Heavenly alignments are most powerful when the two planets are moving together. Once they have started separating, we see them as a spent force. Unless, that is, they blot out each other's light. The residual impact of an eclipse can last for weeks � though the build up remains the most tense time. Our tiny Moon is now getting ready to shut out the Sun, in some parts of the world, for a few moments on Saturday. For any Davids who now have a Goliath to conquer, the celestial symbolism is auspicious! TUESDAY MAY 27 Eclipse of the Sun - Part Two An eclipse leaves a �sensitive spot� in the sky. This can remain tender for several weeks. If, during that time, another planet passes the place where the eclipse occurred, it can fan the fading fire into a roaring flame once more. The solar eclipse this Saturday will be at the 9th degree of Gemini. In mid June though, both Mercury and Venus will reach the same part of this sign. Once the eclipse is over, tense dramas should stop for a while... but they may pop back up for a little 'encore' in a further fortnight or so. WEDNESDAY MAY 28 Solstice query Dear Jonathan, I went to a Psychic Fair over the weekend. Several of the psychics I visited said the Solstice will usher in a new higher level of existence. We will go to sleep on the night of June 20 and wake up on June 21 completely different, in a completely different world. This will cause a lot of global problems as people try to adjust to higher vibrations. Can you see anything in the stars that indicates this happening? Thank you,Toni. Oh Toni, how I WISH I could! THURSDAY MAY 29 Solar Eclipse comment Is it really worth trekking to the North West of Scotland, just on the off-chance that the clouds may part long enough, at some ungodly hour of Saturday morning, to reveal a rare cosmic event that only lasts for a minute or two? The meteorologists aren't sure. Long-range weather forecasts are inconclusive. And I must be honest. While once, astrologers were very good at answering such questions, few these days are adept at the old techniques. All I can tell you is... I'm going to be there!
FRIDAY MAY 30 Solar Eclipse - Part Two Here's where and when you can catch the eclipse. (Data: Courtesy of NASA and Astronomy Now magazine) Normally, the big Sunrise of the year takes place on June 21. But this year is different and special. Tomorrow morning, the moon will pass in front of the face of the sun... just as it is rising. This is just as rare, and powerful as the great eclipse of 1999 that had millions flocking to Cornwall. Yet it is drawing little attention. Maybe that's because the epicentre of the event is in faraway Scotland. But wherever you live in Britain, you should be able to see something of the show. Set your alarm for about 4.30am, then look to see where the Sun is coming up. All you need is a clear view of the horizon. Go up a hill if you can for the Sun will be very low down. SAFETY NOTICE For more information, visit NASA WHAT IS AN ANNULAR ECLIPSE? FANCY A TRIP NORTH? WHAT DOES IT MEAN? SATURDAY MAY 31 Solar Eclipse - Part Three Early this morning, just as the sun was rising, you could have seen a solar eclipse in north-west Scotland. That tells us plenty about the kind of week ahead. A time when the light of old logic is plunged into darkness by the arrival of new information. Happy Birthday!
