Reader of souls, vision seeker, TROLL Group: Super Moderator Posts: 4,792 Joined: 20-Jun-2003 Zodiac: Holly Realm: The frontier of Penn's Woods	Is it just me or does the night sky seem out of kilter to you? I notice that several of the stars are not where they usually are at this time of year and the contelations are off by up to 2 to 5 degrees... I have been a sky observer for many , many years and things seem strange to me. Anyone else observing these things? -------------------- I support the separation of church and hate!

I'm in bed before the sun goes down most times. -------------------- Hoka Hey! The more Liberals I meet, the more I like my dogs!

I haven't seen stars in the night sky since back in May, and won't until sometime about the middle of next month. It's that "Midnight Sun" thang. Little Sparrow of the Hawks hasn't said anything, and I'm sure she would have had she noticed something. She watches the sky more than anyone else I know.

It does seem strange.

I am afraid I don't know what you call the constellations, but one that we call Karlavagnen (or the Great Bear - Ursa Major) is definately not where it should be - it could be that I am confused since I recently moved, but no I donnae think so... -------------------- Anam Ceilteach About Indigenous Peoples If you ever needed a G�idhlig dictionary If you think you can hold me down I beg to differ If you think you can twist my words I'll sing forever Tha gach uile dhuine air a bhreth saor agus co-ionnan ann an urram 's ann an c�irichean.

This week the sun and Jupiter enter Sagittarius within a day of each other -- Wednesday and Thanksgiving Day, respectively. You Archers -- enjoy the energy, use the time and your own strength well, and give thanks for change.

I do think we ( the earth ) are on an unusual wabble right now, it all started with that last big quake that set off the sunami that took so many lives in the Indian Ocean and South Pacific area.

My mother was part Lakota Sioux and taught me a great deal about the heavens and you are so right. Thing have moved. My father was Scot as was my mother's father, they always told us signs in the sky should be heeded, but I never had a clear description of the signs. Could the, I Ching, Mayan, Merlin, and Mother Shipton's beliefs about the date of December 21, 2012 be true? -------------------- CHECK MY SITE: BEYOND THE VEIL http://www.gmadventures.com "I DID NOT, IT WAS THE FAIRY FOLK!"

Mistress of the Hearth Fires, Dreamer of the Woods Group: Founder Posts: 1,405 Joined: 10-Sep-2003 Zodiac: Rowan Realm: New England	Shadows, I just came across an article that might be helpful to you. It's about a new program that can take an amateur's pictures of the stars/constellations and show any changes in the positions of those stars. Please take a look: http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/0711...tar-finder.html This is from one of the boxes along the right side of the article: Astrometry.net shows where an image of the constellation Orion belongs in a full map of the night sky. A white box superimposes the image on the full map. Credit: NASA/Astrometry.net I hope this helps! -------------------- Look with the eyes of a child. 'Hope guides me.

I have a theory that they are shifting not because they are moving but because we are, could be that Mother Earth is actually shifting, remember the Tsunamis that hit a few years back and sent the earth through an immediate shift of the poles? I think this is more result of that and the fact that we humans have done damage and now the Earth is healing Herself perhaps at the expense of those that are on her surface. In the Movie "The Matrix" humans were compared to a virus, and perhaps that is true since most take from the earth but put nothing back, think on this and let me know your thoughts! -------------------- Blessed Be, Sir.

Hi Druid of Ark, this is JC, It would be too bold to post it, but I once tried to sum it up in something called: �Fool Me Once�. Which I�m thinking of calling �Fooled Again�, instead, anyway you can find it�s over on Celtic Hearts if you haven�t already seen it.
Later,
JC

Celtic Guardian Group: Celtic Nation Posts: 3,581 Joined: 07-Nov-2004 Zodiac: Birch Realm: New York	Has anybody been looking at Mars lately, in the early evening sky (probably rising a little before sundown)? It is huge, just immense, a soft pale orange. Breathtaking. At Imbolc (Feb. 1st) Jupiter and Venus will be perfectly conjunct in Capricorn, rising before the sun as a double "morning star" (you would have to be up and out well before sunrise). It is expected to be a stunning sight. Hope for a clear sky.
