Ross: Cthulhu waits dreaming
In the elder time chosen men had talked with the entombed Old Ones in dreams,
but then something had happened. The great stone city R’lyeh, with its monoliths and sepulchres,
had sunk beneath the waves; and the deep waters, full of the one primal mystery through which
not even thought can pass, had cut off the spectral intercourse. But memory never died, and
high-priests said that the city would rise again when the stars were right. Then came out of
the earth the black spirits of earth, mouldy and shadowy, and full of dim rumours picked up
in caverns beneath forgotten sea-bottoms. But of them old Castro dared not speak much. He cut
himself off hurriedly, and no amount of persuasion or subtlety could elicit more in this direction.
The size of the Old Ones, too, he curiously declined to mention. Of the cult, he said
that he thought the centre lay amid the pathless deserts of Arabia, where Irem, the City of
Pillars, dreams hidden and untouched. It was not allied to the European witch-cult, and was
virtually unknown beyond its members. No book had ever really hinted of it, though the deathless
Chinamen said that there were double meanings in the Necronomicon of the mad Arab Abdul
Alhazred which the initiated might read as they chose, especially the much-discussed couplet:
“That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die.” Cthulhu still lives, too, I suppose, again in that chasm of stone which has shielded him since the sun was young. His accursed city is sunken once more, for the Vigilant sailed over the spot after the April storm; but his ministers on earth still bellow and prance and slay around idol-capped monoliths in lonely places. He must have been trapped by the sinking whilst within his black abyss, or else the world would by now be screaming with fright and frenzy. Who knows the end? What has risen may sink, and what has sunk may rise. Loathsomeness waits and dreams in the deep, and decay spreads over the tottering cities of men. A time will come—but I must not and cannot think! Let me pray that, if I do not survive this manuscript, my executors may put caution before audacity and see that it meets no other eye. |

Juliana : Vedic New Year 2017: Hemalamba Samvatsara
One of the many New Year charts used in Vedic astrology is based on
New Moon in Pisces, when Sun and Moon come together in the same
celestial longitude in Pisces constellation, which is called the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada that refers to the first synodic lunar day (tithi) of the waxing Moon in the Vedic month of Chaitra. It is believed that Lord Brahma created the universe on this very day. This Vedic New Year is also called Vikram Samvat, as well as Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra, and Ugadi in Telegu.
This year, the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada tithi starts in the
night of Monday, March 27 for Washington DC, and the horoscope for the
Vedic New Year for the US is calculated for this date and time. However,
the New Year lord for not only the US but also Europe is calculated for
the following day on Tuesday, the day of Mars, which is the day on
which the pratipada tithi is in place at sunrise (March 28). In India, the New Year will occur after sunrise on the 28th,
so Wednesday, March 29 (ruled by Mercury) will be the day celebrating
the Vedic New Year, and Mercury will be the lord of the year in India.
The beginning of the Vedic New Year also marks Vasant Navratri, the nine-night spring festival of Mother Divine when Devi Durga comes down to bless the world and her children at the beginning of the New Year. MORE

Ross Annular Solar 'Ring Of Fire' Eclipse Feb 26, 2017
Juliana: An annular “Ring of Fire” solar eclipse will occur on Sunday, February
26, 2017, beginning at 12:10 PM UTC (7:10 AM EST), peaking at 2.58 PM
UTC (9:58 AM EST) and setting at 5.35 PM UTC (12:35 EST). The eclipse
will occur in the Southern Hemisphere along a very narrow path beginning over the South Pacific Ocean, crossing South
America and the Southern Atlantic Ocean and ending in Africa. According
to Vedic astrology, an eclipse affects the whole world, but important
geopolitical events are often stirred up more in the areas where the
eclipse shadow actually falls. More
