July SkyGuide: Moon Phases: July 3 - 1st Quarter Moon Note: July 4 - Earth is at aphelion (furthest) with respect to our sun July 5 - Moon at apogee (furthest from earth)) July 10 - Full Moon July 18 - Last Quarter Moon - Ideal Stargazing July 20 - Moon at perigee (closest to eart) July 25 - New Moon - also ideal Stargazing Evening Skies: Mercury is high in the early evening twilight July 3 - Mercury close to the Beehive cluster (in binoculars) Mars is getting lower in the North-west, and close to the crescent moon on 28 and 29 July. Morning Skies: Uranus (in binoculars) near to the Pleiades cluster Venus is falling back to the horizon, and is a distinct half-moon shape and is near Uranus 3-6 July Towards the end of the month, Venus comes close to Jupiter. Saturn is very high in the morning sky and near Neptune (in binoculars) TCoronaBorealis still hasn't gone nova, so keep watching it, A new Nova V472 Lupi is now visible in the constellation Lupus, just above the constellation Scorpius, it's quite obvious if you age a chart and binoculars (see Ian's ‘Astroblogger' website for the chart) Occultation of Antares on July 8 (best seen in Perth) Southern Delta Aquariid Meteor shower peaks 3am in the NE five handspans west of Saturn on the morning of Sunday July 31st ( active 12 July - 23 August) Ian's Tangent: Observing the Dark Emu and understanding how different cultures record ‘dark constellations'. Ian's Astrophotography Challenge: ‘Backyard Astrophysics' Capturing Nova V472 Lupi, and recording how it fades over time.

Astrophiz 215: Dr Ian Musgrave's June SkyGuide Summary: Mars close to thin crescent moon. Occultation of Antares behind the moon in the early evening sky. The moon comes close to some of the bright planets. … and Mars is close to the moon again at the end of the month. Moon Phases: June 3 ~ 1st Quarter Moon, and another time to catch the ‘Lunar X' late in the night, about 11pm for Australian Eastern states. 10:30 for central states and 9pm in the West. Lunar X Tip: take an image each 1/2 hour from moonrise. June 7 ~ Apogee, furthest from earth June 11 ~ Full Moon June 19 ~ Last Quarter Moon ~ ideal for stargazing June 23 ~ Perigee, closest to earth June 25 ~ New Moon ~ ideal for stargazing June 21 ~ Solstice: shortest day in Southern Hemisphere. longest day in Northern Hemisphere Evening Skies: Jupiter is lost into the twilight Mercury returns to evening skies mid-month, on the 27th it's 3°from the moon an hour after sunset, and will continue to be excellent until mid-July. Mars is low in the NW evening skies, and is still readily visible T Coronae Borealis is visible in late evening skies and still has not ‘Gone Nova' so the challenge is still … to capture a Nova before and after it blows! This Nova iswell ‘overdue' so all eyes are on it! Tuesday 10 June ~ The Occultation of Antares by the Moon is easily seen in binoculars and telescopes (for times, check Ian's Astroblogger website) Also June is a great opportunity to see The Dark Emu in the south, the Southern Cross and the magnificent globular cluster Omega Centauri is also at it's highest in the south. Morning Skies: Venus is furthest from the sun on 1 June, and is a half-moon shape in telescopes, and beside the crescent moon on 22 June Saturn is climbing higher in the morning sky, Scorpius is a feature in the dark morning sky in the east Saggitarius and the Heart of the Milky Way are also rising, a good opportunity to catch the Triffid and Lagoon nebulas in Saggitarius. Ian's 'Tangent' Ian discusses long-lived aspects of Indigenous astronomy like The Eagle, Stingray and Dark Emu, and how Western constellation names have changed over time. eg Argo was declared obsolete in 1930. Ian's Astrophotography Challenges: 1. Capture The Occultation of Antares on June 10th (almost full moon) 2. Then on a dark night with no moon, have a go at The Dark Emu, with your mobile phone/DSLR/camera, conveniently at 8pm in the south near Scorpius, the Pointers and the Southern Cross. Tips: Use your device's highest ISO (ASA) Under urban skies, take 10 x1second exposures, and stack them using a free stacking program or app. Under dark skies, you can take longer exposures If stacking in RAW, do a ‘dark frame' subtraction If stacking in JPEG, don't use dark frame subtraction.

Wiladat 12th Imam Mahdi (ATFS)Friday, February 14th 2025- The occultation is divided into two phases: the Minor Occultation (Ghaybah al-Sughra) and the Major Occultation (Ghaybah al-Kubra).- During the Minor Occultation, Imam Mahdi maintained communication with his followers through deputies.- In the Major Occultation, the Imam's communication is hidden, and followers are guided through religious scholars and community leadership.- The concept of the Mahdi's occultation challenges believers to remain steadfast in their faith despite the Imam's absence.- The absence of Imam Mahdi is viewed as a test of patience and spiritual perseverance.- Islamic eschatology places great emphasis on the Mahdi as a central figure who will restore justice and righteousness.- Some Sunni scholars also have traditions referring to a Mahdi figure, though with differences in the details compared to Shia beliefs.- The Mahdi's return is expected to coincide with a time of widespread injustice, oppression, and corruption, followed by a time of peace and equity.- Followers of the Imam Mahdi are encouraged to live in anticipation of his return, maintaining hope and working towards societal justice in the interim.- The Mahdi's occultation is seen as part of the broader divine plan, with a purpose that is ultimately tied to fulfilling God's will for the world. - Imam Mahdi's return will mark a dramatic transformation of the world order, bringing about the reign of truth and equity for all.Donate towards our programs today: https://jaffari.org/donate/Jaffari Community Centre (JCC Live)

Hi everybody, I'm Rob Webb, your Last Minute Astronomer, bringing astronomy to normies and nerds, with little time to spare. We'll start by talking about January's big events, then highlight the naked eye planets, and finish up with the lunar phases, so you can plan ahead better than me.    January 2025 is a PLANETARY month! Mars gets big, Mars gets occulted, Mars gets outshined by Venus, Saturn, and Jupiter, then Venus and Saturn pass right by each other, and a brief but intense meteor shower shows up.    13th - Occultation of Mars - MORE than a close encounter, Mars will be right next to the Moon all night, except for about an hour when the Moon occults Mars.  Around Philadelphia, the occultation starts at 9:17pm, when the Moon passes right in front of Mars.  This lasts until about 10:32pm, when Mars pops back out on the other side of the Moon.   Music was produced by Deep Sky Dude and used with permission.    We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Hosted by Chris Beckett & Shane Ludtke, two amateur astronomers in Saskatchewan. actualastronomy@gmail.com The Observer's Calendar for October 2024 and Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-Atlas on Episode 450 of the Actual Astronomy podcast. I'm Chris and joining me is Shane. We are amateur astronomers who love looking up at the night sky and this podcast is for everyone who enjoys going out under the stars.   - Oct 1 - Zodiacal light is visible again this month. Actually, Alister and I observed it back on Sept. 8th, so it does become visible even in late summer. Look towards East or just north of east and it's a pyramid shaped pillar of light pointing somewhat towards M45, the Pleiades star cluster. - Oct 2 - New Moon! Also an annular solar eclipse on this day…but only for extreme southern tip of South America and center of Pacific…let us know if you see this! - Oct 5 - Venus as close as 3° to the Moon in Evening Sky - Oct 10 - First Quarter Moon - Oct 14th - Saturn Pairs as close as 0.1° of Moon and Occultation for parts of Africa…so if anyone is there…hint hint…we have a friend visiting Africa for astronomy who will join us in coming weeks. - Oct 15th - Neptune just over ½° from the Moon and occultation for other regions including Africa. - Oct 17 - Full Moon - Largest in 2024 - I don't know if it's super or not…large tides this week too. - Oct 19 - Moon Near Pleiades this evening  -Oct 20/21 - Orionid meteors peak but Moon interferes but it pairs with Jupiter for a nice sight, as close as 0.6° - Oct 24th - Last Quarter Moon   Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-Atlas -  Best night here will be Oct 15th when it passes Messier 5, a Globular Star Cluster in Serpens.

Join us in our first head-to-head discussion with the respected Shaykh, Imran Damani in which we explore the depths of the Philosophy of Ghayba (Occultation). We discuss a number of points relating to the wisdom, aims, and objectives of the Occultation of Imam al-Mahdi (as) as well as pondering on how we can prepare for his return and to be from the successful supporters of the Imam.

Dr Ian Musgrave brings us his September SkyGuide … telling us when, where and what to look for in the evening and morning skies this month. As usual Ian also gives us his ‘Tangent' ... this time al about Full Moons, Apogee moons and Perigee moons, and how an astrologer made a typo leading to how our understanding of 'Blue Moons' has been somewhat flawed Also Ian is continuing his ‘Astrophotography Challenge' where he presents us with not one, but a trio of achievable and challenging tasks to undertake with our cameras in September. This month our challenge is to capture a Comet, a Nova and capturing a perigee and apogee moon with the same zoom settings, and an occultation. Moon Phases for September New Moon - 3 September - best for seeing the faint fuzzies and clusters Apogee Moon furthest from Earth - 6 September 1st Quarter Moon - 11 September Full Moon - 18 September Perigee Full Moon is also closest to Earth -18 September Last Quarter Moon - 25 September Evening Sky Venus in the evening twilight, close to thin crescent moon on the 5th, and close to Spica on the 18th. Saturn - almost edge on in the late evening, and for those in Northern Australia north of Alice Springs, an occultation on 17 September at about 6:20 in the evening .... and the centre of our galaxy is directly overhead this month, so when the sky is very dark this week (New Moon) and around to 25th (last quarter moon), please do get out and have a look at our magnificent Milky Way! Morning Sky Mercury has returned, low in the morning sky. Saturn rising ... always beautiful! Mars is moving into Gemini, and Jupiter getting higher also prominent in the morning sky, and may be joined by Comet C/2023A3 later on in the month, Comet C/2023A3 is closest to the sun on September 27, in the early morning if it doesn't disintegrate, but comets are like cats ... "they have tails and do as the please" Corona Borealis still hasn't banged, but is still expected to pop off before the end of September. Occultation of Antares best from Perth 10-11 September Ian's September Astrophotography Challenges: 1. Capture the apogee and perigee with same zoom. 2. Capture the comet oround the 13th or 14th, 3. Occultation 4. Corona Borealis Nova explosion Next Episode: In 2 weeks, to celebrate our 200th episode, we are bringing you a sensational interview with Larissa Palethorpe, a young PhD from Edinburgh University who has discovered the most earth-like planet yet … and it's only 40 Light years away You'll love Larissa and her earth-shattering research. Keep looking up!

Legal and normative discourse has been integral to the fabric of Shīʿism since its inception. Revered across nearly all schools of Islam, the sixth Shīʿī Imām, Imām Jaʿfar b. Muḥammad al-Ṣādiq (d. 765), stands as a paragon of juridical scholarship. The legal doctrines elucidated by Imām Jaʿfar and his immediate successors have purportedly been meticulously preserved by eminent figures such as al-Kulaynī (d. 941), Qāḍī al-Nuʿmān (d. 974), al-Ṣudūq (d. 991), and al-Ṭūsī (d. 1067) within their respective ḥadīth collections. These compendia collectively form a coherent corpus of legalistic discourse, distinctively associated with the Jaʿfarī school of thought. Within this corpus, a specific legal persona of the Imām is presupposed, wherein the linguistic formulation of legal pronouncements is contingent upon the recipient, while the underlying legal principles remain immutable and accessible solely to the Imām. Numerous traditions assert that God has conferred upon the Imām the authority of legal guardianship (al-wilāyah al-tashrīʿiya), enabling them to legislate per divine knowledge, thus allowing flexibility in expressing their legal rulings through various linguistic forms. The embodiment of this principle becomes evident when the Imām issues divergent rulings on the same matter due to specific circumstances, illustrating the dynamic nature of legal language. By recognizing the parallels between legal guardianship and other prevalent Jaʿfarī themes such as dissimulation (taqiyya) and intellectual accommodation (kalām ʿalā qadr ʿuqūl al-nās), one can argue that the aforementioned Shīʿī corpus posits a perspective on legal principles and legal language that is characterized by realism yet subject-dependency. Within this framework, the Imām not only receives legal principles but also interprets and applies them, emphasising the nuanced interplay between linguistic expression and the application of legal principles. Due to this, the Imām embodies a ‘proto-Uṣūlī' role, applying consistent principles but issuing varied judgments based on circumstances, akin to a 'legal demiurge' endowed with divine authority. This meta-ethical stance, akin to ‘Platonic Moral Realism', underscores the constancy of principles amidst changing moral judgments. Such a view significantly impacts the legal language used by the Imām, with specific rulings tailored for ‘common' followers and general principles revealed to legally ‘qualified' ones. The rejection of analogical reasoning (qiyās), attributed to the Imām, is also rooted in the belief that only he holds the necessary knowledge for accurate interpretation, ensuring clarity in legal meaning. Viewing the Imām as a ‘Divine Jurist' reveals disparities in Jaʿfarī legal thought before and after the Occultation, shedding light on evolving synthetic legal trends amongst later Twelver communities. This perspective highlights Imāms' distinct stance on the relationship between legal language and meaning, affirming the adaptability of the former and the permanence of the latter.

On December 11 (or 12 depending on timezone), Betelgeuse will be occulted for approximately 12 seconds. This is significant. Betelgeuse is a gateway, an information point, and one of the more powerful stars in our system. Once heralded as a star representing the powerful feminine aspects of Creator, during the Orion wars (and due to their mirror on Earth), powerful Betelgeuse got taken over. The broadcasts were disrupted and people who were using this gate for soul crossing had pieces of their souls abducted. In this podcast, I tell you about the journey we have been on with Betelgeuse, its significance as a stargate, when it got taken over and why this occultation is a good thing. *A reminder I am back on for sessions! Here to help if you need me. Email me at katieindicrow@gmail.com.* My school is also back open and I am ready to train you on how to ground your soul. Inbox me and I will give you my best recommendation. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/katie-indicrow/message

SpaceX is counting down to a second test launch for the Super Heavy. The White House is laying out rules for governing space tourism and space stations owned by private companies. And asteroid will soon occult Betelgeuse. Mars is glowing green?

Students and teachers are doing real science by measuring the shadows cast by distant objects in our solar system.For years humans knew Pluto, the first Trans-Neptunian object to be discovered, only as a moving point of light in the night sky. It wasn't until 58 years after it's discovery that astronomers were able to observe a star as Pluto passed in front of it. These data gave an accurate diameter and also proved that Pluto has an atmosphere. There are estimated to be 100,000 Trans-Neptunian bodies larger than 60 miles or so in diameter. They have stories to tell about the beginning of the solar system. Additionally, sometimes, a passing star changes one of their orbits sending it into the inner solar system and perhaps near to us.

In 874 CE, the eleventh Imam died, and the Imami community splintered. The institutions of the Imamate were maintained by the dead Imam's agents, who asserted they were in contact with a hidden twelfth Imam. This was the beginning of 'Twelver' Shiʿism.  In Agents of the Hidden Imam: Forging Twelver Shi‘ism, 850-950 CE (Cambridge UP, 2022), Edmund Hayes provides an innovative approach to exploring early Shiʿism, moving beyond doctrinal history to provide an analysis of the socio-political processes leading to the canonisation of the Occultation of the twelfth Imam. Hayes shows how these agents cemented their authority by reproducing the physical signs of the Imamate, including protocols of succession, letters and the alm taxes. Four of these agents were ultimately canonised as “envoys” but traces of earlier conceptions of authority remain embedded in the earliest reports. Hayes dissects the complex and contradictory Occultation narratives to show how, amidst the claims of numerous actors, the institutional positioning of the envoys allowed them to assert a quasi-Imamic authority in the absence of an Imam. Adam Bobeck is a PhD candidate in Cultural Anthropology at the University of Leipzig. His PhD is entitled “Object-Oriented Azadari: Shi'i Muslim Rituals and Ontology”. For more about his work, see www.adambobeck.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Chthonica, we talk about the adapting horror prose to film with Laird Barron and Alan Baxter, and screenwriter & filmmaker Philip Gelatt, Jr. who has adapted stories from both authors. Philip wrote and directed the film THEY REMAIN, based on Laird's novella "--30--" and scripted "In Vaulted Halls Entombed" from the story by Alan Baxter for the Netflix animated series Love, Death & Robots. Philip also wrote, directed and produced the dark fantasy animated film THE SPINE OF NIGHT, now streaming on Shudder and available on Blu-Ray through Amazon. Spoiler alert: we will talk about details of both stories and their screen adaptations. You can find "--30--" in Laird Barron's collection OCCULTATION and "In Vaulted Halls Entombed" in Alan Baxter's collection SERVED COLD.
