This is a way of measuring the year, though instead of dividing it into 52 weeks or 365 days, the year is divided into 24 hours. Apparently this is a more complex idea than I was expecting; the sidereal day is used for astronomical observation, but it&#8217;s also used to calculate the ascendant of an astrological chart, which is basically where chart calculation begins.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\">\n<dl id=\"attachment_12342\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"width: 225px;\">\n<dt class=\"wp-caption-dt\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12342\" title=\"daily-astro-215-px2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/planetwaves.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/daily-astro-215-px2.jpg?resize=215%2C227&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Photo by Sean Hayes.\" width=\"215\" height=\"227\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<p>The year begins as &#8216;midnight&#8217; at the moment of the vernal equinox. So right now, since the equinox is tomorrow morning ET, we are in the last few minutes of the sidreal day; so it&#8217;s a little before midnight. This is another way of saying that the Sun is occupying the last degree of the zodiac; the last degree of Pisces. I mentioned that the Sun is void of course in this degree. This opens a door; unlikely developments are possible. Make sure you pay attention sufficiently to make sure they&#8217;re the kind of unlikely developments you want.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the next few days promise to be pretty interesting. Here is why, in my opinion. The Sun ingresses Aries, meaning it contacts the Aries Point. That stirs things up, but the Sun is also square the Pluto\/Charon system through the weekend and into Monday. So we now have two major elements affecting the Aries Point at once. Pluto is currently opposite a weird thing called Kronos, which is like super Saturn without a body (it&#8217;s a hypothetical); and Achilles is in Aries making an exact square to both Kronos and Pluto. The the Sun slips in and sets that off.<\/p>\n<p>This is a confidence issue; that is the signature of Achilles: false confidence or false lack of confidence. We are having an enormous confidence issue these days, and we&#8217;re feeding it with all kinds of negativity. It&#8217;s personal and collective, Aries Point style. Looking at the world one way, fear has taken over. It&#8217;s quite literally attached to everything: from food to the air to sex to money to anything being potentially controversial; and the negativity is being pumped out around the clock 24 hours on the &#8216;news&#8217; channels where for the most part people who don&#8217;t know they have souls spout off their ideas endlessly.<\/p>\n<p>I think how we feel, and what we choose to do, has a lot to do with the source of the information we receive. There&#8217;s also something in our intention for getting that information. Television usually fills in dead space and time; what else could go into that space and time?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s time to start visualizing that. The Sun is still in Pisces, in the degree of visualization. We can, if we dare to look with the inner eye.<\/p>\n<p><em><span class=\"style161\" style=\"line-height:18px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Eric Francis\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.planetwavesweekly.com\/resources\/images\/sign_white.jpg?resize=185%2C45&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Eric Francis\" vspace=\"10\" width=\"185\" height=\"45\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em>reporting in from<a href=\"http:\/\/www.theonion.com\/content\/video\/spam_crackdown_threatens\"> Koy4Goff<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Friend and Reader: One thing I haven&#8217;t mentioned (or talked about maybe once) on Planet Waves is a factor called &#8216;sidereal time&#8216;.
