Homunculus: The Alchemical Creation of Little People with Great Powers | Ancient Origins

Although science has made much progress in the last century, there are still numerous ethical issues that need to be addressed by the scientific community.

Eliza Bassett's avatarEyes of Heaven

With the help of photography, we can see what a ‘retrograde’ motion looks like. This astrophotographer has recorded two planets during late 2015 and most of 2016. The link to the photo is here: Retrograde Motions of Saturn and Mars 2016

Mars has a retrograde motion every other year. Saturn, yearly.

If you like this kind of photography, Mr. Tezel has over 300 images on the The World At Night (TWAN) site. Here is his collection: Photo Gallery of Tunc Tezel

Tarot Directions – The Moon

GD TAROT_Moon

The card of the Moon implies confusion and muddled thinking. This will not be the day to make decisions, especially if they would have far-reaching consequences. The energy around you today is far more conducive to daydreaming and relaxing, not pushing yourself to do too much.

For Love: Your love life may be in a bit of a conundrum as you try to sort out the truth from the untruths. That said, it is always better to not go running into an unclear situation. As the facts you need are not at hand just yet, try giving yourself some much needed time to get back into “you”. If you can do this, you will have the best possible chance of sifting through the facts when they do come to light.

For Work: Idle gossip could get you into trouble today, so don’t go acting upon all you hear even if you trust the source of the information. Emotions may be running high and practical input may be running low. To even this out you need to step away from any explosive situations. Tell yourself there is always tomorrow to sort out any problems that may arise.

Thoth Hermes Trismegistus and his Ancient School of Mysteries | Ancient Origins

Thoth Hermes Trismegistus is portrayed by the #Egyptians as the moon god with the body of a man, head of an ibis, and a crescent moon over his head. His symbol was the winged serpent staff. He was the god of wisdom, letters, and time. But he was not only known to the Egyptians. To the Sumerians he was Ningizzida; he may have been Enoch to the Jews, Odin to the Scandinavians, Wotan to the Teutons, and some even suggest Buddha. Before he was revered as a god, he was the first great Egyptian #philosopher and founder of the #Ancient Mystery Schools
