Sound Does Travel Faster than Light

Each time I mention this I'm corrected with the (also) somewhat fact that light travels faster than sound. However, discoveries abound.

Scientists have experimentally demonstrated that sound pulses can travel at velocities faster than the speed of light, c. William Robertson’s team from Middle Tennessee State University also showed that the group velocity of sound waves can become infinite, and even negative.

Celestial Compass for the Week of May 6-12, 2019

Sweetest Tongue has Sharpest Tooth, and other Beguiling Circumstances

The quote, “sweetest tongue has sharpest tooth” comes from the Little Red Riding Hood, as words of wisdom from Granny who cautions to stay on the path and not be beguiled. Some things never change noted by the fact that this fairytale was written in 1697 and the idea is still apropos in today’s world. The Moon is growing full, heading toward a Blue Moon in Scorpio and Mercury is in Taurus along with the Sun while the Taurus planet ruler, Venus makes a few wild turns in the solar system. All this adds up to interesting, entertaining, and charming conversations along the way. Some will spin yarns, some will be naturally beguiling and you will feel the impulse to settle into a sense of inner peace that you seek. Harmony is a key energy that is sought and it can be manifest if you hold to a modest interest about love and ideas of fulfillment. The First Quarter Moon...

Celestial Compass for the Week of April 1-7, 2019

A New Moon in Aries Begins a Great Time for New Beginnings

Venus + Neptune = Sleeping Beauty

Venus & Neptune in Pisces = Sleeping Beauty

Venus is in Pisces until April 20 that will align with Neptune, making the cycle one of mystery, fantasy, allure, and extreme romance. I used the term “extreme” to define this because it can open doors to ultimate energy for soul mate and also stumbling into strange and bizarre circumstances. It’s the grand fantasy either manifest ideally or that takes you far afield from everyday life. This is a time when great creativity manifests. For anyone with the tendency, there can be tripping down the rabbit hole and losing your way so if you feel yourself slipping into unsure and vicarious territory, stop and think before you continue. Idealism can align with needs and desires to cause taking a wrong turn. You create a masterpiece, write a grand novel, discover blissful love, or answer that email from a Nigerian prince. More seriously, it can align you with great spirituality where you not just comprehend but feel the harmony of divinity.

Why is Easter Happening Later this Year?

Easter? Not yet…

Easter generally falls on the first Sunday following the 1st Full Moon following the Vernal Equinox. By ecclesiastical rules set centuries ago, the Equinox is fixed on March 21. That means this week’s Libra Full Moon did not take place after the equinox, even though, according to astronomy, it did. This year Easter Sunday is on April 21 and won’t happen again until 2038. There are variances, depending on which calendar, Julian or Georgian, that is used.

DOORWAYS TO DIVINITY

Yes, it’s a time to be more cautious with decisions and all communication as well as avoiding it regarding new major decisions, although there’s much productive that can be achieved and especially so with this specific one. *Mercury Retrograde in Pisces lasts from 1:17 PM March 5 until March 28/ Spirituality, sacrifice,
