2010 Turbulence and Uncertainty - A Time For Opportunity
If you feel restless and anxious, like the world is spinning out of control and perhaps your life feels it is doing the same, know that there is a valid reason for those feelings. Turn on any news program and you'll see unrest, violence, confusion and great fear world wide, with a continual surgence of natural disasters, economic problems, and a host of rather devastating situations.We are fast approaching a major shift in our country and lives, and there is a very scientific reason for this shift. Our solar system is constantly moving and shifting, and as it does there are often times when our lives feel turbulent. Now is such a time. There is internal unrest with a sense of a shifting foundation.It's hard to imagine that planets which are light years away from us can affect us here on earth. Yet, the magnetic fields of the planets do affect our lives. They affect us on a personal level as well as on a global level. Beginning May 27, Uranus entered Aries for the first time in 84 years, and will stay there until mid-August, returning again next spring for 6 more years. On June 6th, Jupiter also enters 0 degrees Aries, so that Uranus and Jupiter will be united in 0 degrees of Aries. We have not seen this union of Uranus and Jupiter in well over 200 years - actually not since the time of the Revolutionary War. This summer, we will herald the beginning of an astrological event known as a Cardinal Grand Cross, around June 26, in which multiple planets will align in the shape of a cross. This major aspect will strongly affect the birth charts for both the United States and the Federal Reserve.A solar eclipse will take place on July 11th. Using the U.S. birth chart with Sagittarius rising, we could expect to see the U.S. economy dominating the news; there may also be increased earthquake activity. July 29th- 30th, will present an opportunity for explosive tension as planets align near or on the four 0 degrees. Deep relationship issues may erupt both personally and globally; more volcanoes may erupt. People may experience impulsiveness and explosiveness with poor judgment resulting in severe and immediate consequences. New leadership may emerge and therefore higher levels of consciousness will be easier to achieve. Signs will become evident of a new world to come with things changing at a moment's notice! There will be opportunities for growth on all levels - creativity, patience, resilience and resourcefulness. Individuals may feel as if they've been stripped down to a place in which all that is left is what is most important to them.Astrologers have been watching the approach of this phenomenon for several years. No one knows for sure how these energies will play out, but these events could possibly be beyond anyone's current imaginings. It is not something to fear, but rather to

Q&A: How did thales of milete predict upcoming eclipses?
by OpenGovPhotos
Question by javiesau: How did thales of milete predict upcoming eclipses?
If you don't know the way he did that, at least would explain me another method that ancient astronomers used to do such activity.
Best answer:
Answer by bikenbeer2000There is a cycle known as the Saros, which is the recurrence of similar eclipses after a period of 18 years and 10 or 11 days. If an eclipse occurs, it's possible to say. with a fair degree of certainty, that another will take place after this period, although the area of visibility moves westwards, so successive eclipses are not generally visible from the same location. The eclipse which Thales predicted is thought to be that of 28th May 585 BCE. The eclipse preceding that date by one Saros period was the eclipse of 18th May 603 BCE. Both these eclipses were visible from Thales' location in the eastern Mediterranean.

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." ― Ralph Waldo Emerson 2012 is moving pretty quickly! I wanted to take the opportunity to update you on the Astrology of 2012 and the upcoming Venus Occultation of the Sun amongst other important transits such as the eclipses in Gemini/Sagittarius. The 'truth' is coming out and once the cat is out of the bag, there's no putting it back in! The most important advice to take from this video is that, in the end, only YOU have the power to decide what is 'truth' for you no matter how much you have given your power to outside authorities in the past. Choose YOU wisely ;)! Also, have a look at my video from October 2011 regarding the occupy movement and the connection to the sinking of the 'Titanic'.

Western America Natural Wonders
Western America Natural Wonders
Western America will momentarily fall into darkness on the 20th May 2012, when it experiences an annular eclipse. The eclipse which will sweep across East Asia, over the Northern Pacific Ocean and then into the South Western United States will occur when the moon travels across the front of the sun and gives the impression of a ring of sunlight around the solar disc. For a chance to see this rare annular eclipse take advantage of the many bargain holidays to America as it will not be visible from the UK.Western America Natural WondersYosemite National Park - America's first national park
The Yosemite National Park stretches across the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountain chain, covering an area of more than 750,000 acres. Most of the park is a designated wilderness with amazing granite cliffs, streams, waterfalls and giant sequoia groves. Designated a World Heritage Site in 1984, most visitors spend their time at the park in the Yosemite Valley which covers seven square miles of the park. The park has five vegetation zones - lower montane, upper montane, chaparral and oak woodland, alpine and sub-alpine.Grand Canyon - Natural wonder of the world
Stretching for 277 miles the Grand Canyon is a steep-sided canyon carved by the Colorado River in Arizona. This natural wonder often reaches widths of 18 miles at a depth of over a mile. The area was originally inhabited by Native Americans who lived in caves and settlements built in the canyon. The Grand Canyon became a protected Forest Reserve in 1893 and later became a National Park in 1919, three years after the creation of the National Park Service. Visiting the Grand Canyon West Rim is a great opportunity to walk along the 'Grand Canyon Skywalk' 4,000 feet above the ground and look down through 2.5 inches of glass to the canyon below, take a white rafting tour and watch traditional performances by Hualapai tribe people. For a more vertical perspective an ideal way to see the canyon is by helicopter.Zion National Park - Mormon's 'promised land'
Surrounded by towering cliffs, the Zion National Park is located in Springdale Utah. A major feature of the park is Zion Canyon which cuts through the Vavajo Sandstone at depths of up to half a mile and stretches for 15 miles. The park has four life zones - desert, riparian, woodland and coniferous forest which are home to many species of plant, birds, mammals and reptiles. Originally inhabited by an agricultural community, the park now welcomes visitors to share its mountains, canyons, rivers and facilities like climbing, hiking, canyoneering, cycling and horse riding.Bryce Canyon National Park - Incredible rock formations of Utah
Designated a National Park in 1928, Bryce Canyon covers 56 square miles in south-western Utah. The canyon itself is in fact a giant natural amphitheatre which was formed by the erosion of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. Visitors will be amazed by the geological structures (hoodoos) formed by wind, rain and ice erosion of the river and lake bed
