ASTROLOGY, SCIENCE & SUN SIGNS
Author: A..866 Group
Publisher: A..866 Group
ISBN:
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 61
Book Description
This book explores the scientific causality of sidereal astrology and discusses the power of astrology with arguments given under five headings - Stars, Rays, Gravity (General Law of Relativity), Humans. The hypothesis presented is that electromagnetic plasma radiations coming from Zodiac constellations may be affecting the neurons of the newborn. Despite the main subjects of this research are science-based, not astrology; the data presented as evidence for the theory have been simplified to reach readers who are not interested in physics and astronomy. Information is presented in a concise, clear and attractive way; all content is written in jargon that covers the topics from the very beginning and explains them in a very simplified way. Therefore, this book can be enjoyable for those who want to learn interesting things about the structure of the universe.

The Cycle of the Zodiac Signs
Author: Annemiek Bosch
Publisher: Mijnbestseller.nl
ISBN: 9403678976
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
This survey of how astrology works was not written specifically for astrologers. Its purpose is to formulate a materialist theory of what is empirically demonstrated in astrology; our relationship with the cosmos. Starting with the most feeble part of the astrological framework, Annemiek Bosch presents an explanation for the manifestation of the zodiac signs through the year. This cycle appears to be correlated with Earth's angular movement towards and away from the supermassive black hole in the center of our Milky Way galaxy. Drawing on the latest scientific insights of quantum physics and consciousness research, she then discusses the mechanism underpinning the astrological practice and makes it plausible that our unconscious minds are able to obtain information from quantum entanglement. Our coherence seems to cause us to collectively create our reality through a process of controlled prediction and automatic adaptation to the cosmic environment. The phenomenon of consciousness – instead of arising from individual, isolated brains – could be the result of this connectedness.

Cycles of Time and Meaning in the Mexican Books of Fate
Author: Elizabeth Hill Boone
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292712634
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
In communities throughout precontact Mesoamerica, calendar priests and diviners relied on pictographic almanacs to predict the fate of newborns, to guide people in choosing marriage partners and auspicious wedding dates, to know when to plant and harvest crops, and to be successful in many of life's activities. As the Spanish colonized Mesoamerica in the sixteenth century, they made a determined effort to destroy these books, in which the Aztec and neighboring peoples recorded their understanding of the invisible world of the sacred calendar and the cosmic forces and supernaturals that adhered to time. Today, only a few of these divinatory codices survive. Visually complex, esoteric, and strikingly beautiful, painted books such as the famous Codex Borgia and Codex Borbonicus still serve as portals into the ancient Mexican calendrical systems and the cycles of time and meaning they encode. In this comprehensive study, Elizabeth Hill Boone analyzes the entire extant corpus of Mexican divinatory codices and offers a masterful explanation of the genre as a whole. She introduces the sacred, divinatory calendar and the calendar priests and diviners who owned and used the books. Boone then explains the graphic vocabulary of the calendar and its prophetic forces and describes the organizing principles that structure the codices. She shows how they form almanacs that either offer general purpose guidance or focus topically on specific aspects of life, such as birth, marriage, agriculture and rain, travel, and the forces of the planet Venus. Boone also tackles two major areas of controversy—the great narrative passage in the Codex Borgia, which she freshly interprets as a cosmic narrative of creation, and the disputed origins of the codices, which, she argues, grew out of a single religious and divinatory system.
