Long-range Weather Forecasting with Astrology
Weather Forecasters across the nation proclaimed the arrival of the first day of Autumn on September 22, 2005. They were, however, totally oblivious as to how this would affect the very forecasts they will make throughout the season. Of course, in a general way, meteorologists understand that because of the earth’s orbit around the Sun, the Sun now appears to be over the Equator and moving south. This means a loss of solar energy for the Northern Hemisphere, and a loss of solar energy means changes in the weather. But that’s as far as it goes for them.
The ancients had a different understanding. An astrological chart set for the beginning of each season at the corresponding solstice or equinox afforded them more than just a broad-spectrum look at the season in question. From the planetary positions and aspects contained in the chart, they extracted a more detailed look at the quality of that particular spring, summer, fall, or winter. Would it be a dry season or a windy one? Would it be a mild or a harsh winter? When would certain weather phenomena take place?
The beauty of this method is that weather phenomena can be foreseen months and years in advance since planetary positions can be calculated far into the future. This built-in, non-polluting, advance warning forecast tool is one of God’s thoughtful conveniences that, if properly used, could save humankind time, money, and lives.
This year, long-range forecasts based on this method, have found their fulfillment in Hurricanes Alpha, Wilma, Otis, Dennis, and Tropical Storms Irwin and Arlene.

When we take a deeper look through the lens of astrology we can see our psychological make-up and imprinting that often operates on an unconscious level. Becoming aware of our imprinting or inner scripts is the first step to becoming free of them. This is the level where we can do lasting emotional and mental healing.
Beyond the mental level lies a deeper strata which we could call the soul level. On the soul level, the individual is seen as an expression of spirit. This is particularly helpful for healing core issues as all “dis-ease” starts at the energetic level. By understanding where energy is blocked we can open up new pathways for healing.
Lastly, astrology can help us see our true, soul-level purpose in life. The astrological chart is indeed a map of our spiritual destiny if our eyes are open. This is the highest level of astrology and requires that the astrologer has done the work necessary to guide on this level. When we open to our true soul-purpose or calling we let go of feelings of separation and see that life is unfolding according to the divine plan. And……we see that by expressing our individual gifts we are co-creating this Divine plan with spirit moment by moment.

A Taurus is a special kind of person with very unique characteristics. You may not have known that the Taurus likes to be the center of attention just like the counterpart in the animal kingdom. In fact, many people who are a Taurus tend to be very bullish or stubborn when it comes to interacting with other people.
This can tend to be both a positive and a negative in certain ways. Positively, it can lead to a good sense of purpose and following through on projects and ideas. However, in some instances it may have the person seeing red when it comes to being able to handle any kind of criticism of what they may firmly believe in their mind.
A Taurus will in many cases have a very big, boisterous personality which some people may say is abrasive while others would call it lighting up the room. They usually don’t tend to shy away from the limelight and instead crave that kind of attention and opportunity to lead a group.
On a purely intellectual level, the Taurus may not be a superstar, instead prefering to get things accomplished with brute strength or a proven strategy which may have worked well in the past. It would be good for a Taurus to learn to try new and better ways of doing things.
Now you know more about the Taurus and what kinds of traits they can exhibit.
