2-Zack: re.....Timing the Transit Dec. 12 to Greenwich?

[Guest guest]

Hi Mark,

 

I am writing to ask about the

notation you use below, the first of these Week-At-a-Glance

calendars. Do I understand correctly, the 26:01 refers to GMT

(London Time) - which is then jumped to Mid-West US Time, six hours

behind, or eight in the evening on the eleventh?

12/12

26:01

Taurus

Exalted & Full Moon!

 

In any case,

you will see the clouds firm up for soaking drizzles during the Taurus day

(is the Taurus transit as short as 30 hours?) Also, note that the

moon is in Virgo around the Solstice, so the transits are perfect for

planting garlic cloves which is traditionally done on the shortest day of

the year, and best in an Earth sign!) I believe the Virgo transit is

the longest lasting of all, about four days in

total.

 

Best,

ZackDear Zack: I'm sorry, I generally specify

that the times I'm quoting, for example, the 12/1226:01 Taurus

represents where the Moon will be on 12/12th at 9am, in time zone 6,

in the midwestern US where I am.I've said before that this

transit is the same for everyone on the Earth at this " moment "

thoughthis " moment " will be experienced at different

times, depending upon where you live.For example, at 9am when

I've calculated the transit, its in the late afternoon in Europe, andin the late evening, 8:30pm in India.But, whatever the time,

the transit is the same. Though people figuring out how to use the

transits, from India, they use the descriptions to refer to their

next day since they're about togo to bed!Hope this

helps...Mark K.As far as the time of the Moon's

transits, the Moon spends exactly 2 1/2 days in each sign.At
