September 19th to September 25th 2005
MONDAY September 19 Solar Flarers comment As well as a Full Moon, which always tends to bring incidents, upsets and dramas, the last few days have brought a series of exceptional solar flares. Scientists freely acknowledge the havoc that these can cause to electrical machines and radio controlled devices but many astrologers are quite sure they have a similar effect on humans. The Moon is waxing now and, though there could be one last powerful emission today, the worst of this storm on the sun is probably over. So, if you've been through a lot lately, cheer up. Calmer times lie ahead. |
TUESDAY September 20 Sun sign query email Dear Jonathan, Last week you said, 'Your Sun sign describes the real you.' I thought my Moon sign was supposed to do that. Helene
Dear Helene, |
WEDNESDAY September 21 Solar Eclipse Email Dear Jonathan, My friend is travelling to Madrid to see the rare solar eclipse on October 3. Will she feel the influence more strongly there? Lorna
Dear Lorna, |
THURSDAY September 22 Autumn Equinox Seasons greetings! Today is the equinox - one of the two days each year when day and night are of equal length. At 22.23 GMT (11.23pm British Summertime) the Sun will align with the point where the equator meets the ecliptic. At the same moment it will enter the zodiac sign of Libra. We have reached a turning point in the cosmic calendar. If you've got a resolution to make or a dream you want to pursue, this is an excellent time to put it into practice... regardless of what sign you were born under. |
FRIDAY September 23 Email forecasts query Dear Jonathan, Do the signs 'take it in turns' to go through phases of difficulty or opportunity? Might, for example, my Leo prediction today be appropriate for a Libran in the future? Esther
Dear Esther, |
SATURDAY September 24 Solar Eclipse comment Weekend Forecast: Are you ready for the grand solar eclipse on October 3? Though it will be only partial in Britain, it will produce an amazing ring of solar fire around the Moon in parts of Spain and Portugal. Madrid is probably the best place to head for if you can find a cheap flight. Whether you go or just stay here, you'll need a pair of special eclipse glasses or you won't be able to see anything! If you hunt them down on the internet this weekend, you should just have enough time to get a pair sent to you. |
SUNDAY September 25 Solar Eclipse - Part 2 Your Week Ahead: Normally, I tell you about heavenly happenings in the coming week. Today, though, I want to give advance notice of a rare solar eclipse on Monday, October 3. In some parts of Europe and Africa, it will culminate in a bright ring of sunlight around a jet black moon. In Britain, it will only be partial but it will still be impressive. If, though, you try to see it without proper eye protection, you may blind yourself. Sunglasses won't help... you'll need a welder's helmet... or proper eclipse glasses... or one of those funny pinhole projectors that some people make in science projects. Is it worth the effort? Yes. It's even worth a cheap last-minute flight to Spain, as long as you've got the eye gear. Be aware, though, that the days just prior to an eclipse are often strangely tense. So, if a mood of apprehension sweeps over you soon, don't worry. It won't last long.
