| Publisher Description: POOR WILL'S ALMANACK FOR 2019 is an almanack and horoscope-in-nature that readers can use to help them live in harmony with the sun, moon, stars, planets and the land around them. The ALMANACK uses a month-by-month overview of events in the sky and in the landscape, combined with a S.A.D. (Seasonal Affective Disorder ) Index, in order to help readers understand and respond to the influence of the seasons on their lives. The idea of an "Almanack Horoscope in Nature" may complement the principles and insights of traditional astrological calculations. However, the horoscope focus of POOR WILL'S ALMANACK FOR 2019 brings a very different perspective on "time watching." The word horoscope itself comes from the Greek words, hora, which means hour or time, and skopos, which means observer. Watching what happens in nature through the seasons, a time watcher becomes a "horoscoper." By focusing on events in nature - both on Earth and in the sky - the time watcher not only observes how the weather and the movement of the Sun, Moon, stars and planets are connected to the seasons but also how events on Earth reflect what happens in the sky - and how all of these events can be related to human emotions. No matter how much or how little the reader may consider the various ways in which to find his or her place on the planet, I hope that this edition of POOR WILL'S ALMANACK will, at the very least, increase awareness of the many forces at work in nature that create us and our habitat. |
