Gemini Solar Eclipse - Get Ready for Action!

"Transits of Venus across the disk of the Sun are among the rarest of planetary alignments. Indeed, only six such events have occurred since the invention of the telescope (1631, 1639, 1761, 1769, 1874 and 1882). The next two transits of Venus will occur on June 8, 2004 and June 05/06, 2012." ~ NASAVenus the Goddess of Love, beauty and abundance is leading the way into Fifth Dimension. Venus is the Twin Flame planet to Earth. Yes, Venus and Earth are Twins. The Venusians are ascended beings who live on Venus. Hidden from public view, the Venusians are playing a major role in our ascension process. In truth, many advanced beings from other star systems and worlds are here at this monumental time. Our year 2012 is a cosmic historic event.Venus is requiring that women reclaim their power and men reclaim their feminine side. We have been out of balance for thousands of years, dominated by the male energy with war, greed, power and control. It is time the feminine energy brings harmony to our planet and people. Venus is retrograde until June 27 giving us the opportunity to tune in to our heart's desire. Venus wants us to revisit the past for a greater understanding before we move ahead."You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you will discover will be wonderful. What you will discover is yourself." ~ Alan AldaThe last time we had a 0* Gemini Solar Eclipse was May 21, 1993. What were you doing in May of 1993? Something you began that year is being completed or needing to spiral to the next level. Solar Eclipses dim the light of the Sun. We could be delayed in our Gemini compulsion to share, talk, write and connect. Usually 0* implies new beginnings. However, this Gemini Solar eclipse is conjunct the Dragons tail. There are two points on the Moon that are very important the North Node and the South Node. The North Node represents the direction in life we are to go in. The South Node-Dragons tail is where we have come from in our past, including our past lives. Is there something that from the past that must be recovered before we move forward?This is the year of the Dragon. Dragons represent the fire and power of the Mind of God. The unconscious karmic pattern of the Gemini Dragon's tail can offer us an unlimited supply of choices that are hard to make a decision.Moreover, Neptune's influence is still strong. Neptune starts to ease off in June when he moves retrograde June 4 at the Sagittarius Lunar Eclipse. Neptune is in challenging aspect to this Gemini New Moon Eclipse. We can find that our brains are congested with fog, fantasy and unrealistic ideas. On the positive side, Neptune can inspire, uplift and encourage us to go for our highest ideals, dreams and

Answer by MickDon't know, never attempted it.

Comprehensive, it is. It assumes film is used, but that's just them wanting you to get the best out of it.

Annular Solar Eclipse on 15 January 2010 Can be seen best in Tropical regions on the Equator, from Nigeria in Africa, crossing Indian Ocean, passing by the southern tip of India all the way to Korea in the far East. Its the first Solar Eclipse of the year 2010 Annular Solar Eclipses usually happens in winter time, as the Sun is at Perihelion ie at its nearest to Earth, so apparent diameter of the Sun is larger than that of the Moon, for that the Moon can not cover the Sun entirely leaving a ring of light around it.. Total Solar Eclipses howerver usually happens in sumer times as the sun at Aphelion ie at its furthest from Earth and its apparent diameter is smaller than the Moon and can be covered entirely... A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth so that the Sun is fully or partially covered. This can only happen during a new moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction as seen from the Earth. At least two and up to five solar eclipses can occur each year on Earth, with between zero and two of them being total eclipses.Total solar eclipses are nevertheless rare at any location because during each eclipse totality exists only along a narrow corridor in the relatively tiny area of the Moon's umbra. A total solar eclipse is a spectacular natural phenomenon and many people travel to remote locations to observe one. The solar eclipse of August 11, 1999 in Europe helped to increase public awareness of the phenomenon, as illustrated by the ...
