3.26.25 - Day 2/13 of the Red Dragon Wavespell - Solar Moon 20 The new Tzolkin seemed to roll in without a lot of sparks, which makes sense after the Yellow Star wavespell which was all sparks, all the time. And the Solar Moon surround with its fiery corona also dims the subtlety and inward darkness of the Red Dragon wavespell's birth channel. Mostly just be in touch with both: speed, urgency, focus, intention in the Solar moment, and abeyance, withdrawal and deep mystical emergence in the Red Dragon one. And Mercury is in the heart of retrograde which adds to being inside and away from what isn't working. As much as it disrupts so many of our decencies in everyday living, Mercury Retrograde, in its epicenter, is perfect for soulful solace and creation.

If you’re up early tomorrow, and you have a clear southeastern horizon, you might want to step out into the winter chill for a few seconds – or maybe just look out your kitchen window. The Moon will pass amazingly close to the star Antares, the heart of the scorpion. And an even brighter light will stand not far to the left: the planet Mercury. All three are quite low in the sky during the dawn twilight, and quickly vanish as the sky gets brighter. The Moon and Antares are visible at some point during most nights of the year. And they can pass high across the sky, so they’re easy to pick out. Mercury is a little more bashful. It’s the closest planet to the Sun – about a third of Earth’s distance. Because of that, Mercury never moves very far from the Sun in our sky. At best, it’s visible for a little while before sunrise, as it is now, or after sunset. That makes Mercury a difficult target for skywatchers – and for professional astronomers. They can’t point their telescopes close to the Sun. And Mercury is almost always so low in the sky that it’s seen through a thick layer of air, which muddies the view. The best views of Mercury have come from three spacecraft that have visited the planet. The third one has passed by Mercury three times, with another visit scheduled for next month. It should enter orbit in November of 2026 – providing the best views yet of this bashful little planet. Script by Damond Benningfield

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for the latest podcast, which drops March 29 @ 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET, about how the recent March 25 & upcoming April 8 eclipses—AND Mercury's retrograde in Aries April 1-25—kick off a long-term review of both current partnerships & creative projects!This includes a look at how the March 25 Libra Full Moon lunar eclipse revealed changes in our relationships to others—both personal & as part of the collective. In addition, we discuss how Mercury's station retrograde from 27-degrees 10-minutes Aries April 1 back to 16-degrees Aries on April 25--when it stations direct again--provides us all the opportunity to review where & how we need to make changes to those which no longer inspire us. This Mercury retrograde period may stall the flow of our creative juices—temporarily—but the gift is time to review where we may have lost our mojo & need to recapture the kind of intuitive inspiration that helps us better plan our future. This theme is likely to be most prevalent when Mercury hits the upcoming Mars-ruled April 8 Aries New Moon solar eclipse degree of 19-degrees 24-minutes of the archetypal sign of motivation, ambition, & proactive assertion.This period is already activated since Mercury already conjoined this eclipse degree circa March 20/21, will do so again when retrograde on April 16, & once more when direct on May 5. Combined with the theme of this spring eclipse season, we're asked to reorient our creative pursuits in order to release any stagnant non-productive energy & make way for something new—partnerships included.As always, we discuss also the specifics of where partners have come together to negotiate, compromise, & successfully change their attitudes toward each other, & where, sadly, people & nations are still at war. Given that the April 8 solar eclipse has both luminaries tightly conjunct wounded healer Chiron, we discuss as well how future healing may be possible since repercussions of the Libra Full Moon lunar eclipse last through November 20, 2024—the day the South Node conjoins the March 25 lunar eclipse degree. Which, btw, also happens to be the day after Pluto reenters Aquarius on November 19 for the next 19 years.If you're ready to delve more deeply into the March 25 Libra Full Moon lunar eclipse's already realized effects on partnerships AND learn what's yet to come with the April 8 Aries New Moon Solar eclipse, then this podcast is a don't miss!

Mercury's appearances in our sky are like a game of whack-a-mole. First, the planet pops into view in the morning sky, then it ducks into the Sun's glare, then it pops up in the evening sky, and so on. It never stays in view for long – no more than a few weeks, and often only a few days. So you have to strike fast to catch it. This is one of its morning pop-up times. Mercury is quite low in the southeast as the dawn twilight gets brighter, so you need a clear horizon to see it. And although it looks like a fairly bright star, it can be hard to spot against the bright sky. Mercury pops in and out of view so often because it's the closest planet to the Sun, while Earth is the third planet. As a result, Mercury stays close to the Sun as seen from Earth – it never climbs very high into the sky. And Mercury's tighter orbit means that it crosses between Earth and the Sun, or behind the Sun, every few months. That carries it from morning to evening and back again in a hurry, leaving little time to catch it. Mercury is in better view tomorrow because it has some bright companions. It's close to the upper left of the crescent Moon. Venus, the brilliant “morning star,” is high above the Moon. And Antares, the brightest star of the scorpion, is to the lower right of Venus. And although the Moon will have dropped from view on Wednesday, Mercury will remain in decent view for another week or so.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

Love the show? Make a donation! Timestamps [1:12] Moon Report! The Scorpio First Quarter Moon (July 25, 3:07 PM PDT, 02º43’ Scorpio-Leo) is on the Sabian symbol 3 Scorpio, A house raising, with the Sun on 3 Leo, Woman having her hair bobbed. [2:03] The Scorpio First Quarter Moon is ruled by Mars, currently in Virgo. So that symbol of the “house raising” is a good example of taking practical action, especially toward things that will last. [3:11] This is the First Quarter in a Lunar Phase Family cycle that began with a New Moon/Solar Eclipse on October 25, 2022 at 2º Scorpio. Other important dates in this cycle are April 23, 2024 (Full Moon) and Jan. 21, 2025 (Last Quarter). [5:52] Void-of-Course (VOC) Moon Periods. On July 25, the Moon in Libra squares Pluto (8:05 AM PDT). It's VOC for an hour and 50 minutes before it enters Scorpio (9:55 AM PDT). A perfect time for changing emotional habits around relationships. [6:29] The Moon in Scorpio sextiles Pluto on July 27th (3:36 PM PDT). It is VOC for one hour and 48 minutes before it enters Sagittarius (5:24 PM PDT). Look for an opportunity to clear the air emotionally. [7:42] On July 29, the Moon in Sagittarius trines Venus in Leo (4:51 PM PDT). It’s VOC for just under four hours, and then enters Capricorn (8:44 PM PDT). Notice and appreciate the little things that bring you pleasure! [9:05] Mercury conjoins Venus at 28º11’ Leo on July 27 (8:16 AM PDT). Get in touch with someone from your past. [11:10] Mercury trines the Moon’s North Node on July 27 (9:47 PM PDT) at 29°00’ Aries-Leo. Consider how to use your talents, charisma, and leadership skills to achieve long-term goals. [12:32] Pluto squares the Lunar Nodes at 28°58’ Capricorn-Aries on July 28 (11:34 AM PDT). This is the last of three Pluto squares to the Nodes (July 22 and 25 were the others). Pluto squares the North Node at the degree of April 30's Solar Eclipse, 29º50’ Aries. Challenges from an important relationship could bring pressure to move forward on our own and in our own direction. [15:38] On July 28 (2:31 PM PDT) Mercury enters one of its domiciles, Virgo. It'll spend more time than usual here (through Oct. 4) because Mercury is retrograde in Virgo from Aug. 23-Sep. 15. [16:59] Virgo speaks to that dimension of Mercury related to how we master the physical world with skills and tools. And Mercury in this sign excels at analyzing information. [18:38] Arrange your schedule in such a way that you have a little bit more time for the slow, methodical work of Virgo. And make sure to back up your computer and phone! [19:41] April replies to Listener Hallie’s question about Lunar Node returns.

Much gratitude to those who've been here from the beginning, as well as those of you who've found the show along the way! [1:45] Mercury conjoins Venus on Nov. 21st (2:55 pm PST, 07°09' Sagittarius), a time of declarations and redefinition of relationships. This is also an excellent aspect for brainstorming about ways to make money or how to further your financial knowledge. [3:03] The Sabian symbol for this conjunction is 8 Sagittarius, Rocks and things forming therein. All may seem stable and still, but there could be a lot going on underneath the surface. [3:42] The Sun enters Sagittarius on Nov. 22, 2022 (12:20 am PST) and is in this sign until the Capricorn Solstice (Dec. 21). Capricorn season is when we reflect on the resolutions we may have made at the beginning of the year. Sagittarius season highlights the desire to be free of burdens in favor of being a happy wanderer. [5:02] The day after the Sun's ingress into Sagittarius (Nov. 23, 3:02 pm PST at 28°47' Pisces) Jupiter, its ruling planet, stations direct. The Sabian symbol for 29 Pisces is A Prism. Give yourself a chance to see things from a different perspective. [6:40] Jupiter turned retrograde on July 28, 2022 and will return to the sign of Aries on December 20. When Jupiter is retrograde, it's up to us to find a sense of positivity and optimism. It is also an excellent time to calculate your next big adventure. Now that Jupiter is direct, it is time to act on those plans. [8:03] Moon Report! We welcome the Sagittarius New Moon on Nov. 23 (2:57 pm PST, 1°37' Sagittarius). The Sabian symbol for this New Moon is 2 Sagittarius, The ocean covered with white caps.  Mutable Fire sign Sagittarius is known for its enthusiasm and optimism.  Mutable energy tends to be prone to change and restlessness, like the roiling sea. [9:39] The Sun and Moon at this New Moon are in an out-of-sign trine to Jupiter in Pisces as well as a wide conjunction to Venus. A positive-looking New Moon overall and the best New Moon of the year for setting intentions related to personal growth. [10:20] This lunation also begins a Lunar Phase Family, so set these intentions with the next 27 months in mind!  The First Quarter Moon in this series is on August 24, 2023 at 1° Sagittarius; the Full Moon is on May 23, 2024 at 2°55' Sagittarius; and the Third Quarter Moon is on February 20, 2025 at 2°19' Sagittarius. Think big, think long-term, and choose your next great adventure you want to embark on. [11:52] Void-of-Course Moon periods (VOC).  On Nov. 21 (3:14 am PST), the Moon at 26°34' Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn. It's VOC for about six hours and then enters Scorpio at 9:16 am PST. Greet the week with a determination to be as fair and kind as Libra desires but also as truthful as Pluto demands. [12:44] Five hours before the Sagittarius New Moon, the Moon at 28°47' Scorpio makes a trine to Jupiter in Pisces (Nov. 23, 10:16 am PST). It's VOC for just over two hours before entering Sagittarius at 12:16 pm PST. Time to let go of negative feelings and move on. [13:33] On Nov. 25 at 11:22 am PST, the Moon at 28°48' Sagittarius squares Jupiter in Pisces, is VOC for a little over two hours, then enters Capricorn at 1:18 pm PST.  We may ruminate over our Thanksgiving overindulgences (both verbal and gastronomical) from the day before. Unfortunately, what's done is done, so take this time to think about how you can handle these temptations better in the future. [14:25] The Moon at 28°49' Capricorn is sextile Jupiter in Pisces on Nov. 27 at 12:11 pm PST, is VOC for about two hours, and then enters Aquarius at 2:07 pm PST.

Mars is about to go retrograde and is still closely square Neptune, bringing a lack of clarity. (Review last week's Episode 25, Aries Full Moon: Beauty & the Beast, for more details!) How can you connect to your intuition?   02:05 – Please join Celeste at her free Scorpio season webinar on October 16! (It will also be available on her YouTube page if you miss it.) To help you through the possibly turbulent Scorpio weather, consider purchasing the helpful forecast-by-sign for the coming eclipse season at Celeste's site https://www.astrologybyceleste.com/.   03:05 – This week's three big things: First, we have the Last Quarter (LQ) Moon at 24 Cancer on October 17. The Sun is on 24 Libra, on fixed star Arcturus (the hunter who begins to farm, a pathfinder). Mars is also trine the Sun and square Neptune during this LQ Moon. And Mercury is back on Diadem, the crown star. (Mercury has now cleared its retrograde shadow, hurrah!) Brainstorm ideas because there is a Grand Trine in air!   08:32 – Second, Venus is Cazimi (conjunct the Sun) at 29 Libra. The Sun and Venus are traveling together, trining Mars and square Pluto. Venus is in its home sign of Libra, and then will enter Scorpio, the sign of its "detriment" where she is uncomfortable and has reduced strength. This is the first time in over 100 years that the Cazimi is happening in Libra! Libra is the peacemaker sign; how can you infuse love, beauty, harmony, pleasure, contentment, and gratitude into your relationships? Celeste pulled the card of fated meetings for this transit! Venus's conjunctions to the Sun make a beautiful 5-pointed star pattern during its 8-year cycle. Check it out: Five petals of Venus!   11:49 – Third, Saturn goes direct this week on Saturday, trine Mercury and square Uranus. The station lasts for five days before and after… things may feel a bit chaotic, so ground and take care of yourself as you're able. Things that were stalled around Saturn topics may get a new life and forward momentum.   14:31 – On Sunday, the theme is PREPARATION. Take some time to consider how you will stay grounded when Mars goes retrograde. The breath is an amazing tool.    16:37 – On Monday, the word of the day is REFLECTION. Think about what helps you find security and safety despite uncertain times. The Last Quarter Moon phase starts 24 Cancer at 10:14 am PT. The Moon enters Leo at 9:44 pm PT.   17:50 – Tuesday's focus is ENJOYMENT. Let your inner child make an appearance today.   18:38 – On Wednesday, the word is DELIBERATE. Focus on the task at hand. Avoid multitasking.   19:56 – On Thursday, the theme is DEVOTION. What routines and habits are you loyal to? Are they helpful or hindering? The Moon enters Virgo at 9:25 am PT.   21:38 – On Friday, the emphasis is INTUITIVE. Stay present for signs and signals from the Universe. The Balsamic Moon phase begins at 13 Virgo at 11:06 am PT.   22:37 – On Saturday, the word is COMMITMENT. Dedicate yourself to finding balance and peace in your relationships. The Moon enters Libra at 6:23 pm PT.   25:09 – Thanks for listening to Celestial Insights!

Drumroll, please…. Mercury and Pluto station direct!   01:00 – This week's three big things: First, Mercury stations direct on Oct. 2! Was this Mercury retrograde (Rx) period frustrating for you? Mercury turned Rx on Sept. 9 at 9 Libra and backed up to 24 Virgo. You may get clarity about things from the past as we tread over old ground. Some folks are dealing with betrayal (Libra is associated with relationships). And Mercury stations direct opposite Neptune, the planet of illusions and delusions, so stories of disillusionment have been present, too. Another feature was that Mercury stationed Rx opposite Jupiter – we saw stories such as the death of the Queen of England and "David vs. Goliath" stories such as the Ukraine invasion. Celeste also discusses the sad story of the murder of Mahsa Amini in Iran. The Sabian symbol for 25 Virgo, which speaks to this story, is "A flag at half-mast over a public building."   06:55 – Second, we have a First Quarter Moon (FQM) at 9 Capricorn on Sunday, Oct. 2. The Moon is on fixed star Facies, with associations as both a violent star and someone who fights for justice for others; we can use this energy to have focus. (Interestingly, it's also associated with blindness and poor eyesight). The Sun is on 9 Cap and the fixed star Diadem (the crown star). Celeste draws associations to Meghan Markle and how she is treated in the press – this FQM is activating her chart. Venus (love, beauty, harmony) is in Libra, forming a Hammer of Thor with the Saturn/Uranus square at the base. Watch for stories of powerful women in the news! Finally, Mercury is opposite Neptune – watch out for deception, and try to see as clearly as possible around this time.   10:24 – Third, Pluto turns direct at 26 Cap on Saturday! We tend to feel this energy five days before and after the exact station. Will hidden things come to light? Pluto rules power and domination and can bury or bring things to light – stuff bubbling up from the shadows. We may see more stories of revolutions against the authorities or possibly power dynamics in relationships. Mercury (communication) also trines Pluto (power, obsession, wealth) most of this week and part of next week; you may gain insights into how you want to move forward, and it's a great time to build new skills or develop mastery around things. Doing hard work will bring results (think the 8 of Pentacles card).   13:23 – On Sunday, the theme is DECISION. The Moon enters Capricorn at 12:37 am PT. If you are at a party, the vibe may get serious. Mercury stations direct at 24 Virgo at 2:07 am PT. The First Quarter Moon phase begins at 9 Capricorn at 5:14 pm PT.   15:34 – On Monday, the word of the day is EASE. Approach each task with purpose and take your time.   16:04 – Tuesday's focus is VISION. Make space to think creatively. You may discover innovative solutions. The Moon enters Aquarius at 3:20 am PT.   16:57 – On Wednesday, the word is CHOICES. If you find yourself at a crossroads, reflect before moving forward.   18:12 – On Thursday, the theme is EXPRESSION. Share your vision. The Disseminating Moon phase begins at 28 Aquarius at 2:36 am PT. The Moon enters Pisces at 5:46 am PT.   19:33 – On Friday, the emphasis is ROMANCE. It is a great night for a date. If single, treat yourself to a gift.   20:32 – On Saturday, the word is COMPETITION. Challenge yourself! The Moon enters Aries at 8:56 am PT. Pluto stations direct at 26 Capricorn at 2:56 pm PT.   21:48 – Thanks for listening to Celestial Insights!

My name is Billy Newman. And I'm Marina Hansen. And tonight we're out in Maui. And we're outside right now. And we're trying to try us out where we do some recordings of podcasts while we're outside and making some observations. And I'm all for that, that even with the wind, and maybe whatever else you might hear in the background, it's maybe a little more interesting to kind of go through some of the observations that we're making while we're making them. So it has a bit more of a like a live feel to it. But I think it's pretty nice tonight. It's cool. I think we're pretty close to a full moon. What would you say it is, Marina. I think that may actually be full tonight. Yeah, it probably looks like it's gonna be at least in the next 12 hours. So I'd say it's pretty close to being a full moon. And I bet it seems like about the right amount of time. It's been about two weeks since we had a new moon a couple of weeks, or you know, like a few weeks back, so it seems like it'd be right in line to be full. about NASA. I guess. This is the October Full Moon which is pretty cool. Was that the Is it the wolf moon? Or is it the November moon? Is it the beaver moon? November is the beaver man November is the beaver moon? Yeah. That's very cool. Yeah, I think that this one is the Wolf Man, the wolf moon, and then September is sort of the harvest. Man. Is that right? I think so. I need to there's a couple ideas around the Harvest Moon, I remember hearing about where it's at what is it? It's like, the first full moon after the autumnal equinox like the fall equinox, September 21. So if there's a full moon that falls after that, pretty quickly, whatever that next full moon is, I think that was supposed to be the Harvest Moon, but also like that the other order of months as there would be harvest in September. And then in October, it'd be like wolf moon, and then beaver moon. And then I don't know what it is in December, but is that it's been out tonight. And looking at the full moon. We're up on a hillside in western Maui, which is pretty cool and new to us. And I think we're looking at a bit of cloud cover that's kind of moving around the mountain over here. And it seems like it's almost like that all the time. Like you look out there. And it looks like it's raining there, doesn't it? Yeah, I think that it is. Yeah, it's interesting. Like how it looks like it's raining out there all the time. I guess it's how how it's made to be a rain forest upstairs because of all the precipitation they get. And I guess that's sort of what I understand about like the weather pattern on the northern side of the island too. Is that like that gets more rain and weather than what we do over here on the the western facing side of this mountain over here. Yeah, up in Kapalua where I work. It is rainy every single morning as seams train off and on throughout the day. Yeah, so it was sprinkling on me when I got off work today. It's pretty good. So it's kind of weird how it goes back and forth like that so much, but yeah, I guess I guess just earlier this week was the orionid meteor shower. Did you read that much on that? I think you were talking to your aunt about that and like how it was coming into its peak phase just a couple days ago? Yeah. I think the 21st and 22nd were supposed to be the peak days Today's the 23rd. So yesterday, the day before? Yeah, it's cool. I got to see like one of them go by while I was out doing some observations, but with the heavy moonlight it's kind of dampened. I guess some of the dark skies that you would have to really, I guess enjoy watching a bunch of meteor shower. Or you're like watching the meteors come in through the meteor shower. But it's cool. Yeah. Through Ryan in meteor shower. I guess that's that's remnants of Halley's Comet that came through. Like back in 86. I guess this is last pass 8687 was his last pass through the solar system when it was visible before I was born, so I might not ever get to see it. And then, I guess what it was, is that Yeah, like as the comet comes through the solar system on its elliptical orbit comes around the Senate and jets back out on its way. It's like 88 year trip around the sign something like that. I guess it leaves like remnants behind it in its dust trail. And so as the earth is moving around the sun, and its revolution around the Sun throughout the year, it passes through a couple of those zones, where that comment has left debris behind this is how we get most of our meteor showers as as debris that's left behind by a passing comment. And so that debris still just sitting out there in space, I think relatively without a lot of motion. And then it's actually our earth that has the momentum as it swings through at its pretty high velocity as it's coming around. The Senate plows into that that rim, or that little field of desks that's out there in that location. And so there's new desks for us to hit every year as we pass through that zone. Again, that's how we get the proceed meteor showers in a similar way. So we get, like the rest of the meteor showers that we're familiar with. But yeah, this set of the Orion and meteor showers, is kind of from that same position to that same reasoning is that it was Halley's Comet back in 86. And then I don't know back it like a turn of the century before that, that left dust in the pathway out here. And then now it's the earth kind of colliding into it. And so the reason that we call it the Orion and meteor shower, or the perceived meteor shower, or the Leonid meteor shower, whatever, when we might be talking about I guess, is because that is the constellation in which it appears as though most of the media, right, so the debris, the shooting stars that we're seeing, are originating from. And so like tonight, Orion is really not even up yet. So that's why we have to like wait up so late at night to start to see it as because I think Orion would be rising out over this way, like above, above the horizon over here to the east. And so that's why we'd have to wait till like midnight or later. But the idea is that they're kind of becoming originating from a position sort of around where Orion is sort of similar to how it is in the summertime, when we're looking at the Perseids out of the north eastern sky. We have to wait kind of late at night for the constellation Perseus to rise up. And that's when you start seeing, you know, the, the, the meteorites, the shooting stars starting to come out of that location as a kind of originating from the north eastern position in the sky. But you can kind of see them all over sometimes it's it's not like a perfect way to delineate what the location of the meteors are going to be. It's kind of cool. It's cool that we had it this last week. That was cool. You got to mention it to some of your family that there was they were asking about it. It's a nice night that night, there's probably about what 30 40% cloud cover when I turn over this is fairly cloudy up here. Yeah, seems like it's just it's just that way on the island right now. Or it seems like we're kind of battling partly cloudy skies most nights. Maybe it's this time of year. But with the full moon there's not really a ton of stars to see beyond like second magnitude. But you know, when you look at like so we're looking at right now we can see, we see like Vega up there. We see the NAB Seder over here, and then we see like Altair over there. And then you can kind of make out some of the features as well, you can really only make out about six or seven in between, let's say like, if we're looking at Altair, and Vega, with the full moon lab, we can see like 1234567 maybe eight stars or so in between and that zone right there is the Milky Way galaxy. So like all of that dense, rich color in the Milky Way right there is completely obstructed by the luminance of the full moon tonight. It's interesting. That is that's kind of like what I guess you could call it light pollution. It's not really the same as light pollution. That's that's what you get with a full moon night when you don't get to see some of those dimmer. richer, finer textured stars. It's pretty it is the planets are really the most visible things. It seems like yeah, we're playing security right now. I'm looking at Mars. Definitely. We can definitely see Mars that was looking really good. Looks like down there kind of on the horizon is sort of where we're starting to see. Sagittarius. You know, when I was out the other night, I was at that star watching event. And I was really surprised because it wasn't even nine o'clock yet. But it seemed like like Scorpio was gone. I mean, I guess we're almost at November. So it seems like it would be Arcturus is already pretty well set it seems like and it seems like Sagittarius that teapot is tipped up on its side almost the whole way. But what's cool though, is I think out there. Do you see that one? If you take a couple steps everybody was buying that telephone pole. I think that that is Saturn out there. That low one. I do see it. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Saturn so right now Saturn is right out in front of Sagittarius, which is cool. So if you look at you're able to spot that T pi, maybe earlier in the evening than it is right now. You'd still have like a couple hours into the evening or into the darkness where you're going to be able to spot Sagittarius and Saturn along with that. I think maybe I'm wrong. But I think Saturn is still in retrograde. Like I think it's still making it's kind of retrograde motion AP. And then and then it'll kind of go back into pro grade motion again, as it kind of continues on through Sagittarius. And then over the next couple years, it'll move on up to like a, like Capricorn over here, as I think Capricorns over there. Yeah, that's where I can kind of see that double star that's at the top of Capricorn. And that's where Mars was earlier this year, like the summer where we were making videos and talking about it, watching it rise on the horizon in Oregon. We were watching Mars at opposition, a lot closer to that energy Capricorn there and that's all this distance here that we're looking at is how much Mars is transited in pro grade motion now, since that time in like early summer, or like early July. I guess when we're first starting to look at it there, so it's cool like looking at how much has changed but we're, we're getting to that point where we're Mars is like moved on a bit from its position opposition and now it's going to kind of quickly change into like a dimmer stock you remember like two years ago or we're looking at Mars and Saturn together now Saturn and we see SCorp or see Saturn in Sagittarius before we're looking at Mars and Saturn in Scorpio next to Antares I was in like the summer of 2016. And, and then we saw how much Mars had moved in those two years before it came back around to that same position in the sky. So do you remember like how different it was over those two years like had Dimmick off for a while and we were like looking at it with you in the morning one time. And it just looked like a little speck. It was hardly even worth noticing. Yeah, it was really faint. It's interesting how much brighter it is now. Like through this year, it's been so much more noticeable. Yeah. And that's that's that two year cycle. Like I said, 24 month cycle that that Mars is on, where that's how long it takes Mars to complete. Its its movements, procreate motion around the 12 constellations. Do you hear that in the podcast? I think that's a guy playing a trumpet. Well, so flavor in our outdoor podcast so. So So yeah, over those two years that had gone all the way around the ecliptic. So So been in Scorpio two years ago, in August, they had gone through Capricorn Aquarius and Pisces and Aries and then onward through Taurus and Gemini and cancer and through Leo, and all that, and then a kind of come back around, and then it came through. And then it came through and pass through Scorpio, like earlier this year, and then is now at that, but that's what took two years to happen. And so when we're looking at it at Saturn over there, Saturn has made it just from Scorpio, back to Sagittarius in those two years. And that's like the difference in the speed of motion that it is for these to transit around the ecliptic line. That's super interesting to start to notice that. So Mars is two years. Jupiter is 12 years. That's the next night. So if you think there's the earth and there's Mars, then there's the asteroid down, then there's a huge amount of distance before you get from Mars to Jupiter. It's like It's like many more times the distance in the solar system. So that and that's a way of noticing it really is. We have two years, we still are six one year to get around the sun. We have Mars going on in two years. We have Jupiter taking 12 years to get around the sun. And then we have Saturn out there taking almost 29 years. That means it's it was there about the time that I was born 2930 years ago. Is that amazing? Yeah, it's really quiet like back in that same spot. Yeah, it is really interesting. It's interesting kind of noticing, like the the cycles, the different timing, and then sort of like historically with me a little bit too, like, like, I think, well, I don't know, I think it was like Saturn, it's hard to focus on those fun little jazz in the background. I hope you can hear it. But I think it was like, Saturn was kind of known as like, Saturn nine, I think is a word. And then there's Mercurial. That's a word. I think Saturn nine is like slow and lethargic. And lazy, I think too. And then Mercurial is like, chaotic and fast paced, and like, engaged. Does that make sense. And so like, if you think about it, maybe in a sense of where those words had the derivation from Saturn is the slowest moving planet, taking 29 years to move around. And Mercury, the closest planet to the sun is the one that moves around the fastest. And as the most chaotic type of motion, it's really kind of harder to track. Venus is even more stable than that, because it's was a lot brighter, and it's a little further out from the sun. And so because it's an interior planet, we see a kind of move. We don't see it move out to opposition, but we see it kind of stay closer to the sun, as it kind of orbits on the internal track between the Earth and the Sun. It's interesting, it's been going it's cool kind of noticing, like where some of those things come from. Yeah, it's really interesting getting to observe it for so many years now or just being a lot more conscious of it than I had been in the past. And you really do get to, to see in the motion of it, like just how different they are and how far they move around. Yeah, yeah, I've been really fascinated by the end like well, the other thing that I was noticing too, is like so this year Mars to two years ago, Mars came into opposition and went into retrograde when I was in like Libra and Scorpio over there. And then now two years later, it's gone into opposition around Sagittarius and Capricorn really like Capricorn is where it seems to have ended up. And so you kind of notice, like how far that is over, that it had moved before it had come into come into opposition again, and gone into its retrograde motion. So let's take like that. Alright, it's kind of interesting to think about how that would sort of play out like two years from now, it's going to be like out over here. So it'll be sort of a fall time opposition, maybe two years from now it'll be, or maybe two or four years from now, it's going to be like a Halloween opposition. So I have a bear, that'd be cool. Or Yeah, the red planet will be coming in over, it'll be just rising at the time, that we're coming into October. So we're gonna have it coming into, like October and Halloween, around the time that we're gonna see Mars rising up above the horizon line as the sun starts to set. So it'll be kind of interesting to sort of follow that over like a longer amount of time, but it's cool kind of getting to notice it a bit. What else do we see Marina. I was looking over here. Like up toward the moon where it is. And then I think like back or so before the moon down, like over there, I think is I think that's where Aries is like Aries the RAM. It's another one of the constellations that's in the Zodiac, or along the ecliptic line. So I think that'd be like the Aries right over that clouds gonna overtake and then down from there. We have tourists. That's up now. You see tourists everywhere. I do see tourists. Yes. far enough away from the moon that I can actually make it out. I can't really see. I can't really see anything that's right around the moon too. Well, it's so bright. Oh, yeah. Yeah, there's nothing we can see around the moon right now. But it's cool kind of spot and nobody there. So I guess it's like Aries, the RAM. Taurus, the bull we see all over on. And then I guess right now the Pleiades are where its tail would be are up in like a cloud. So we can't see that. But we can at least make out where it is a little bit. And then as we saw, I guess that means that like Orion is probably getting close to coming up here on the horizon like maybe like due east from us. That's kind of cool to think about. And that's sort of something I always remembered from like, a couple years ago, when we were here. Now is like now that we're at the now that we're 20 degrees above the equator, there's a lot more of the Southern Hemisphere that we get to see. And so that's why we get to see like Orion rise quite a bit higher, like almost like due east from us right now. And that's why we get to see further south from Orion, we get to see like canopus come up, which is really cool. Like the brightest stars visible in the southern hemisphere sky that's not visible to the northern hemisphere sky. So it's really exciting that we get to, I guess kind of early for me it's it's it's really cool to see a different sky. Yeah. And it's well, it's really interesting that we were talking about like the winter hexagon or the heavenly g like one of those sort of more modern asterisms. It's visible of the collection of this really bright first magnitude stars that we see in the Northern Hemisphere. Do you remember we were talking about that? There was like, I guess it was start with like, well like Capella out there that we're starting to see. And then there was like Castor and Pollux. And then like proceeding and serious. And then Rigel. And then it would come up to Alderaan. And then like over to battle Jews or butyl ease. And it was is really interesting, kind of like noticing that. But if you notice that they're all kind of in this pattern, I guess right now they're just coming up over the eastern horizon. After that, yeah, like we're gonna see like Orion as part of the some of the stars, I was just mentioning that if you kind of continue that trail down at these really bright first magnitude stars, they're all kind of in this clumped zone over here. And that goes all the way down to connote this, which is further south where we normally don't get to see it. So it's cool to kind of notice that all of these bright stars are sort of in zone together. I think that's still part of like the Milky Way. So my read on that, and in that way, whereas, so we're talking about it. Yeah, so it goes in section. Yeah, it would go over like where Saturn is over there. Bye. Bye. Sagittarius A Sagittarius is like the heart of the galaxy. That would be like looking into the center of the galaxy. And then I think it would follow right up here, as we see like Altair and Vega, have you read over there and then it would cut over to Cassiopeia that we see up here. And then it would be kind of over here, where we see Capella. And then there's gonna be like a lot of it that cuts over here where we see it like a lot of this band of these first magnitude stars, where we see like Orion and Taurus over here, and then as we cut down and cut it to the south, if you kind of imagine like one big line, like this here, that's going to be all along the Milky Way line, which is really interesting. So it's really weird to start to perceive it as like it's canopus in the southern hemisphere Yeah. And then see us and procyon and Rigel and beat ogis and Oliver on and Castor and Pollux and Capella. And then like as a kind of like scoops up, then we see and it's all I can one line with weird that kind of imagined across the sphere of the earth. And then we have like Cassiopeia and then like the NAB, and Seder and Vega and Altair, and then like over to the stars, and like Scorpio, and the stars in Sagittarius over they're all part of like this Milky Way band that cuts all the way around. So it's pretty cool. That's really interesting, like looking at that and looking at how that that kind of works in the sky. But it's kind of an open that. Well, I guess tonight we got like, what 30 40% Cloud and a full moon. So we'll wait a couple months, and then we'll be able to see more of the stuff or more of the stuff that would be more prominently visible in the southern hemisphere. But I'm looking forward to getting to make some observations of condolence and of some of the constellations that we see in the southern hemisphere. I think it's gonna be really fun. Me too. I'm really excited for some clear nights here. Yeah, it's gonna be really cool. I want to do a bunch of like, skywatching like naked eye observations with you out here, but it's pretty fun, like hanging outside and doing it this way. It's kind of nice to get an appointed staff and like, look at things. I was gonna make some sense when when I listened to it back or listened back to it and audio, but it's fine. They should be I mean, I appreciate it. Yeah, I'm glad we found this cool spot. Yeah, I think it's really nice being out here. And yeah, it's nice, nice spray evenings in Hawaii. It's great. Just pretty comfortable. Thanks for hanging out with me tonight. I appreciate it. But yeah, thanks a lot, everybody for listening to this. Recorded in the field episode of the night sky podcast.
