His travels have taken him to war zones in Afghanistan to Everest Basecamp in Nepal and Yakuza bars in Japan. He released his kundalini in India, and studied mindfulness at a Vipassana retreat - where you take a vow of silence for 10 days.

The years that he spent on the phone gave him the skills and insights to compile an “emotional toolbox” of techniques that can be mastered by anybody. He is currently writing a novel. 6 Introduction Ten years ago I wrote an astrology book called 2020 Vision. My Sagittarian publisher at Penguin Books came up with the title. Astrology has transformed beyond recognition since then. Pluto was demoted. We have new heavenly bodies to work with, like Neptune’s wife. I needed to edit my original book and add new sections. Most importantly, the ebook has come along. You can now read this while looking at your astrological birth chart online. This book, 2020 Astrology – Your Five Year Horoscope Guide allows you to make your personal horoscope work harder for you. This ebook would not be possible without my webmasters James Williams and Justin Tabari at Asporea Consulting. Creative Director Mark Elder. My PA Kerry McNally. Stephanie Johnson, the visionary behind Solar Fire software. It is my way of thanking all of you who just visited our website 12 million times.

It singles you out for attention. It exposes you, at least in terms of the life department (horoscope house) which belongs to your particular Sun Sign. This is where you are at your most publicly impressive or prominently disappointing. It may also accurately describe why you are afraid to stand out; why you shun the idea of shining. In a perfect world, if you work your Sun Sign, you glow in the dark and everyone lines up to watch you. However – when it’s hard to shine, you can understand why many people do not relate to their Sun Sign at all. Anything from a lack of confdence, a fear of envy from others – or even depression or other illnesses – can prevent you from shining as astrology says you should. If you have picked up this ebook because you came to astrology via your Sun Sign, you will not be alone. The most popular feature on my website is the daily horoscope based on your Sun Sign. Sun Signs are usually the very frst step anyone takes towards astrology. My frst steps were taken before the age of nine, as I carefully wrote down the birthdates of myself and family members on a visit to my grandparents’ house in Kent. From that, I fgured out everybody’s Sun Sign. Later on, at school, I began reading the forecasts for Leo, my own Sun Sign, in my mother’s copy of The Australian Women’s Weekly, written by Richard Sterling in the Seventies. I am sure you have your own Sun Sign story to tell. It is usually the gateway to all astrology. If you read nothing else in this book, please read the following section. It’s time to look at your Sun. Once you take this step, the rest of your horoscope can follow. I do not expect absolute beginners in astrology to read every section in this book, and it has been written so that you can dip into it over the next few years, slowly discovering how your personal birth chart works, at your own pace. Beginning with your Sun Sign is perfect. If you are a professional astrologer or academic I would not be surprised if you had skipped this section altogether. Sun Sign astrology is the most used and misused aspect of our work. It’s also misunderstood. Ignored at conferences, left out of teaching courses and consequently written badly – or even made up – the vast creature known as Sun Sign astrology, remains the elephant in the room, the popular mainstay of our profession, which will not go away. 8 Why, then, is the loved/hated Sun Sign column only growing in popularity, as the internet expands its audience? Perhaps, because, if you go back to the truth about Sun Signs and Sun Sign prediction, you fnd a great truth about the world. The story of the Sun Sign column is the story of how women started out without a vote and eventually became heroines – if they wanted it. After centuries of discrimination, by 1930, it turned out they wanted it very much. It is no coincidence that Sun Signs soared in popularity within 10 years of women getting the vote. They have kept step with feminism ever since, through two female British Prime Ministers. Heroines, Just For One Day Your Sun Sign personality description and daily predictions, make you the heroine of your own story – maybe the hero, although most people who visited my website in the last fve years were women and I suspect this is true of most other Sun Sign based websites. To adapt the famous Bowie lyric, you can be a heroine, just for the day, if you read your Sun Sign column and enter into the spirit of things. Forget the celebrities trending on Twitter or adorning the front page of the newspaper. You become the star of the show. You become a heroine – if you want it. I can only quote my own website fgures for those of you who are curious about just how massive the female audience is for Sun Signs – but Google Analytics reveals that between June 20th 2011 and June 20th 2016 (the last fve years, as this book is released) the website jessicaadams.com received 35 million hits. That’s an average of 7 million hits a year. Of these, roughly 75% were women, 25% were men. That’s a massive difference. American opinion polls in the last 15 years back this up. Astrology is far more popular with women readers. Birth of the Heroine The Sun has always been associated with men, heroes and fathers in astrology. The most popular Sun Sign columnist in the world, Susan Miller, is an appropriate person to turn to, when defning the Sun. She writes, at her website Astrology Zone, “An essentially masculine force, the Sun also wields infuence over the signifcant men in your life, especially those in positions of authority. This may be your father, your current boyfriend or your husband, a guy-friend, or a male boss or client.” This is in line with the Sun as described by William Lilly in the 17th century, although his spelling would never pass the test on Susan’s website! 9 Lilly thought that Sun types inspired “a kind of itching desire to Rule and Sway where he comes: Prudent, and of incomparable.Judgment; of great Majesty and Statelinesse, Industrious to acquire Honour and a large Patrimony, yet as willingly departing therewith again; the Solar man usually speaks deliberately, but not many words, and those with great confdence and command of his own affection; full of Thought, Secret, Trusty, speaks deliberately, and nothwithstanding his great Heart, yet is he Affable, Tractable, and very humane to all people, one loving Sumptuousnesse and Magnifcence, and whatever is honourable; no sordid thoughts can enter his heart.” How on earth did the Sun become the centre of a woman’s day, then? Literally a Woman’s Day, in the case of the Australian and American magazines of the same names.

    HIGHWAYS BETTERING THE ECONOMY AND ENVIRONMENT POLLINATOR PROTECTION ACT H.R. 2738 Introduced by Reps. Alcee L. Hastings (D-FL) and Jeff Denham (R-CA) The undersigned support H.R. 2738, the Highways Bettering the Economy and Environment Pollinator Protection Act (Highways BEE Act). Pollinators, such as honey bees and native pollinators, birds, bats, and butterflies, are essential to healthy ecosystems and are vital partners in American agriculture. Honey bees, monarch butterflies and other native pollinators are suffering drastic population losses, due in part to loss of habitat. Highway right-of-ways (ROWs) managed by State Departments of Transportation (State DOTs) represent about 17 million acres of opportunity where significant economic and conservation/environmental benefits can be achieved through integrated vegetation management (IVM) practices, that can— Significantly reduce mowing and maintenance costs for State DOTs, and Help create habitat, forage and migratory corridors that will contribute to the health of honey bees, monarch butterflies and other native pollinators, as well as ground nesting birds and other small wildlife. Neighboring agricultural lands and wildlife ecosystems will benefit through improved pollination services. The Highways BEE Act directs the Secretary of Transportation to use existing authorities, programs and funding to encourage and facilitate IVM and pollinator habitat efforts by willing State DOTs and other transportation ROWs managers, building on innovative IVM efforts in a growing number of State

    Origins of the Expanding Universe: 1912-1932 ASP Conference Series, Vol. 471 Michael J. Way and Deidre Hunter, eds. c 2013 Astronomical Society of the Pacific What Else Did V. M. Slipher Do? Joseph S. Tenn Department of Physics & Astronomy, Sonoma State University, Rohnert Park, CA, 94928, USA Abstract. When V. M. Slipher gave the 1933 George Darwin lecture to the Royal Astronomical Society, it was natural that he spoke on spectrographic studies of planets. Less than one–sixth of his published work deals with globular clusters and the objects we now call galaxies. In his most productive years, when he had Percival Lowell to give him direction, Slipher made major discoveries regarding stars, galactic nebulae, and solar system objects. These included the first spectroscopic measurement of the rotation period of Uranus, evidence that Venus’s rotation is very slow, the existence of reflection nebulae and hence interstellar dust, and the stationary lines that prove the existence of interstellar calcium and sodium. After Lowell’s death in 1916 Slipher con- tinued making spectroscopic observations of planets, comets, and the aurora and night sky. He directed the Lowell Observatoryfrom 1916 to 1954, where his greatest achieve- ments were keeping the observatory running despite very limited staff and budget, and initiating and supervising the “successful” search for Lowell’s Planet X. However, he did little science in his last decades, spending most of his time and energy on business endeavors. 1. Introduction Vesto Melvin Slipher, always referred to and addressed as “V. M.” (Giclas 2007; Hoyt 1980b) came to Flagstaff in August 1901, two months after completing his B.A.
