The Sun transits to Aquarius on February 16
Tonight, 16 February 2016, takes place the transit of the Sun in Aquarius where it will remain for about 24 days. Then it passes in Pisces on March 12, 2016 at 00:50. As we have explained here in this web site the dates that the Sun transits to the Zodiac Signs have changed and a 13th sign has been inserted in the Sun's path in the Sky: Ophiuchus. The Zodiac sign of the 90% of the world's population has changed, which becomes gradually known and widly accepted by more people.
On the other side many people associate the sign change with character change which is totally wrong. People do not change. Only the way astrology is practiced and continiusly evolving changes after it approximates more closely to the scientific data.
Ophiuchus the new Zodiac Sign
History
Ophiucus lies between the constellations of Hercules and Scorpio, and the head of Serpens as far as its tale. Its southern part lies within the galactic plane.
According to mythology, Ophiucus is identified with Asclepius, the renowned physician of antiquity. The close association between Asclepius and the snake is due to the fact that snakes represented wisdom, rejuvenation, and the power of the discovery of new healing herbs.
Asclepius was educated and received instruction from his father Apollo and the centaur Chiron; he was the first doctor and served in the Argonaut campaign in this capacity. When he returned from the journey he was even considered capable of raising the dead.
The Sun transited to Aries on April 18, 2016
The Sun enters to the sign of Aries on Monday, April 18, where he will remain for approximately 26 days. Mercury is already in Aries. On April 29 Venus enters to Aries and Mercury starts its Retrograde course in the same Zodiac Sign. All three celestial bodies with contradictory meanings coexist in the limits of the Constellation bringing different emotions and views regarding the facts of life.
The Sun will remain in Aries until May 14, at 00:50 GMT.
Solar Eclipse on March 8 - 9, 2016 in South East Asia
The fascination that solar eclipses cause on humans is eternal.
In ancient Greece eclipses were considered unfortunate and could even cause the interruption of a battle. This happened in 585 BC when Thales of Miletus was the first to predict a solar eclipse, as recorded by Herodotus. The eclipse was the reason for the cessation of hostilities between the armies of Medeans and Lideans.
Today we do not accept the unfortunate nature of eclipses and we tend to accept them as Astronomical events beyond our powers.
In the astrological level eclipses occur on the nodes of the Moon and involve large inflow or outflow of energy to or from the subconscious. It is obvious that we, as human beings, can do nothing to control these flows that disrupt our lives over time, and not instantaneous.
