Annular Solar Eclipse: October 3 2005 From Eric Francis of PlanetWaves:Since my earliest days studying astrology, eclipses got my undivided attention. If you think of the astrological system as a computer, eclipses are those moments when the divine disk drive writes new code to the magnetic surface of life. There is, at the same time, the possibility to erase certain ideas and influences for good. How do you do this? Around the time of an eclipse, work with your intentions, and express those intentions by choice and especially action. planetwaves.net/
From www.hermit.org/Eclipse/2005-10-03/:An annular solar eclipse occurs on Monday, 3 October, 2005, in Spain, Portugal, Africa, and the Indian Ocean. This will be quite a significant eclipse, with a path width reaching over 200km, and the annular phase lasting up to 4 minutes 30 seconds. With the track passing right over Spain and large areas of Africa, many people will have an opportunity to see it; however, as with any annular eclipse, this is never safe to view with the naked eye. The annular eclipse starts in the Atlantic at 08:41:00 UT, and ends in the Indian Ocean at 12:22:36 UT. The maximum eclipse is at 10:31:43 UT, when the annular phase will last just over 4½ minutes. The partial eclipse will be visible over most of Africa, Europe, south-west Asia, and India between 07:35:35 UT and 13:27:54 UT. The deepest partial eclipse will be seen closer to the path of totality as shown on the map below. As a rough guide, the Moon will be 80% covered as seen from south-west France, Sicily, and much of north-east Africa; 70% in Ireland, Wales, south-east England, central France, and central Italy; 60% in southern Scotland, the Netherlands, central Europe, and south-east Turkey; 50% in the Shetlands, Denmark, and much of eastern Europe. |

Hey, Beautiful! Saw this thread and I had just finished reading a article about it in USA Today. www.usatoday.com/news/world/2005-10-02-annular-eclipse_x.htm?csp=N007Then I thought, what the heck, with all that's been going on in the South(Hurricanes and Floods)and the West(Wild Fires), let check it out! You know, I'm the kind of guy who think that planet Earth is more than just a planet. It is a living, breathing time clock/machine. So let see what I found. If you read the article from USA Today, they state that the last time it occured was 1912. I checked it out on Wikipedia, and low and behold. April, 17th, 1912 was the day it occured. It will take place again in 2028. (don't know the day or time, just the year) Anywho, thought I'd do a weather check for that year(1912)and, check it out! weather.unisys.com/hurricane/atlantic/1912/Now to pump this thread up a bit, I thought we all could find something that interest us all as collective individuals. Go this site, find a day prior to or after that you mentally or physically connect with and explore. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1912See how history repeats itself, or how certain events have opened doors to the universe. You're the best, Sowelu!  |

Awesome links, penndragon! (((Thanks!))) This stands out to me... "Madrid" is symbolically "Mother", "4" is symbolically "heart" (perfect balance between human and spirit) and "11" is a master number indicating a new beginning with experience, a higher frequency of understanding. Also the moon is symbolically the feminine/emotion, and it is occulting the sun, symbolically the masculine/light. The feeling there is that it may well mark the end of masculine dominance (or beginning of the end of it), or the start of the "true" feminine. And THEN... on the 17th (?) we have a LUNAR eclipse, indicating, perhaps, the start of the "true" masculine... I know we have eclipses and such all the time, relatively, but this one feels big, and the symbology feels important. Oh! AND... the eclipse will have a "diamond ring effect", which symbolically indicates "the many facets of the pure Soul or Self" Love you! Sowelu |
