Book Description
Lunar calendars suffer from an inherent uncertainty in the length of each month and the number of months in the year. Variable atmospheric conditions, weather and the acuity of the eye of an observer mean that the first sighting of the new moon crescent can never be known in advance. Calendars which rely on such observations to define the beginning of a new month therefore suffer from this lack of certainty as to whether a month will begin on a given day or the next. The papers in this volume address the question of how ancient and medieval societies lived with the uncertainties of a lunar calendar. How did lack of foreknowledge of the beginning of the month impact upon administration, the planning of festivals, and historical record keeping? Did societies replace the observation of the new moon crescent with schematic calendars or calendars based upon astronomical calculations and what were the ideological and practical consequences of such a change? The contributors to this volume address these topics from the perspectives of a variety of Ancient Near Eastern, Jewish, Ancient and Medieval European, Asian and American cultures.

Book Description
For centuries humans have recognized that the moon's cycles influence our lives and the world around us—the ebb and flow of the tides, women's menstrual cycles, and the most beneficial times to plant and harvest. But this ancient body of knowledge—the impact of lunar rhythms on our lives and our surroundings—has become known to fewer and fewer of us, as we have migrated from agrarian to urban living. Now in Guided by the Moon, authors Johanna Paungger and Thomas Poppe recapture this wisdom, providing advice to help readers determine the timing most likely to bring them success in anything they do. Paungger and Poppe cover every area of daily life, from health, beauty, and housekeeping to nutrition, gardening, and family outings. Guided by the Moon is the most comprehensive, accessible guide to this native wisdom—and will be an invaluable resource for everyone seeking to harness the moon's power to live happier, more harmonious lives. Not simply is this a book on lunar astrology, but a comprehensive guide to the moon's influence on our lives and surroundings—and includes charts, illustrations, and a moon calendar through 2010.

Book Description
You won't find another calendar like this on Amazon. This planner is a unique one. As one of the few on the market (if not the only one!) it takes into account the operation of less obvious forces that affect our efficiency and life. Such a power is undoubtedly the energy of the Moon, with which we women are particularly connected. In this calendar, the beginning of the month is the New Moon. The week of the New Moon is preceded by a page with its symbol and date. This will let you know that a new lunar month is coming and it's time to reflect on your plans. You can start using the calendar as early as December 2020. Due to the fact that the new lunar month does not coincide with the beginning of the New Year, the first monthly period included in this calendar begins in December. The calendar is universal. It doesn't matter if you live in the USA or Great Britain. Only the main phases of the moon are marked in the calendar. Its moonrise and moonset times are not marked because the calendar can be used by women living in different countries. For this reason, these hours could differ depending on the user's place of residence. Everybody knows Full Moon is a unique, highly energetic time. It is especially emphasised every month. In the week it is performing, you will find a brief description and reflection to read for this special moment of the month. In every week you will find a "Workout for this week" field. It contains 7 fields to fill in and it is about physical exercises. You can enter your exercise plan for each day there. In the planner you will also find pages for planning your goals and controlling your personal development. Features: convenient 6"x9" size introduction to lunar phases energy weekly 2021 year planner each page contains patterns to color standard calendar overview circle of life exercise place to write down your goals, important dates and notes short reflection for each Full Moon time beautiful and artistic design This book will be your best companion for 2021.

Book Description
This pioneering, monumental work utilizes the visionary legacy of Anne Catherine Emmerich and the spiritual scientific discoveries of Rudolf Steiner concerning various hidden facts of Christ's incarnation. Powell has established the dates and daily events of Jesus Christ on Earth. Further, he indicates their significance for our future. In part one, Powell gives a historical overview. Then, using esoteric sources and his own knowledge of sidereal astrology, he offers startling insights into the circumstances of the Christmas event and the incarnation. In part two, Powell offers a daily chronicle of the three-and-a-half-year ministry of Jesus Christ on Earth, dating the events with an unprecedented accuracy. Also, Powell correlates significant events in Christ's life with upcoming dates in the history of humankind and indicates that the living presence of the Christ is increasingly accessible to us.
