Much better!

Thank you very much, Merlene.
That’s exactly the image I wanted to bring over; it is a nice compliment to hear from a photographically trained person

Just been having a look round the new design – most impressive. I love the mix between Arabic and Western, ancient and modern and, like Merlene, – I can smell those old leather books!

Thank you, Mike;
your positive comments are much appreciated
You are spot on in your observation. Although the main theme of this web log is rooted in traditional Western Predictive Astrology and its useful interpretation for our times, the chosen theme should be understood as a hommage to medieval Arab astrology. After all it was the transmission of their knowledge that enabled astrology to flourish in Europe.

I recently published a handbook about astrology for practical laboratory alchemists. I would love to converse on the subject.

That sounds intriguing. Would love to know more; if you want to take this off the public forum, you can write to me @ Peter@stars-and-stones.co.uk
Sincerely Peter

Excellent post. The eclipse will fall on my natal north node, so I’m off to check my aspects.

Peter, William Lily, frequently quoted by you, astonishes me so much, I cannot recover from this ‘amazement’ ! Now I read your page about next novembers eclipse…what does Sag. rising mean? I’m a Sag. from 12/12/1959, and follow you on Twitter as @fogodoeon.

Thank you and I am glad you find it of interest.
To answer your question, Sagittarius, or any other sign, rising means that this sign was rising on the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth. In mundane charts it indicates the sign rising on the eastern horizon at the moment the event looked at occurs. If you are born on December 12th it means that your Sun is in Sagittarius but to know your rising sign we would have to know your TIME of birth to eastablish this.
