As well as the Earth perhaps spinning around 360 degrees each day with respect to the Sun (Diagram 1 above), the Earth orbits the Sun once per year (Diagram 2 below).
Because the stars are so far away, the Earth’s tilt is irrelevant as to when they appear or disappear, but the position of the Earth and Sun (i.e. which calendar day it is), is relevant as to whether the stars can be seen or not.
Thus the stars rising on the horizon will change by 1/365.25 each following night due to the Earth’s orbit, but what can be seen by the observer with the naked eye will also change due to sunset times at various latitudes and times of the year due to earth’s tilt.
Do you want to create your own star calendar?
In many locations the stars can no longer be seen due to street or other lighting and increasing air pollution.
If you are lucky enough to live where the stars can be seen still, then you might identify a star rising over the eastern horizon that is just becoming visible as the sun sets. That would create a direct correlation for that spot on the Earth for that day of the year and that star. Thus a star based calendar could be created based on this correlation.
If you try creating your own star calendar you might find the zodiac animals useful near the equator.
This would be a much better use of your average Nerd’s time than learning Klingon!
How to translate Astrology into English
Songs, tunes, rhythms, images and taboo subjects have all been been used as aide-memoires for teaching from time immemorial. Let us consider the following 2 statements:
Statement One: “The land and the oceans will suffer mighty winds and floods from the time of the Bull to the time of the Goat in the triangle of the Devil.”
Statement Two: “Hurricanes occur from May to December around the Caribbean.”
If one statement is scientifically true then logically the second statement is true because both statements are saying the same thing. The ignorant who like to pretend they are scientists with the ‘truth’ and reject anything expressed in astrological terms will need to face their own silliness and illogicality.
Conclusion
So the question everyone might ask is: “On what day of what month in a Leap Year is the tip of the Goat’s phallus ascendant as the Sun sets in your star calendar ?”
