704.0. "The Full Moon" by CSCMA::SNOW () Fri Apr 15 1988 17:48

    I believe that the fullmoon really changes a person's mood.  I was
    keeping track of the full moons and seeing if people would change
    their moods..Well it's true...People act mean and pushy including
    myself....
    
    If the moon is is Cancer,Virgo etc ....it affects their moods as
    well...
    
    I remember one day my boyfriend, out of the blue, was acting like
    a a..hole and I was real upset because I could not figure out what
    was wrong..so my friend told me to check to see what sign the moon
    was in and I check it..sure enough it was in his sign...
    
    The co-workers here in my group do not look forward to the full
    moon,because they know that when there is one then the customers
    will be acting -itchier....

704.3yes but......USACSB::CBROWNWed Apr 20 1988 05:1611
     tonight i noticed that the planet Venus was
    almost touching the cresent moon. i pointed this out 
    to my wife and she said, "so?". 
    
     do any of the informed astrology people out there
    in terminal land know what this symbolizes???

    Dear Mouse,
    
    You might want to ask that question in note 660...I wish I had the
    answer but someone in the astrology note might know.

704.6Astronomy Vs. Astrology Not To Be ConfusedBORIKN::ESPOSITOWed Apr 27 1988 05:0516
    Venus appeared to be almost touching the tip of a beautiful Cresent
    Moon, it's true I saw that the other night from my vantage point
    here in the Caribbean! I believe the question was asked if there
    was any Astrological symbloism . . . not really. There are
    "Astronomical" explanations as to the "wandering planets" and there
    movements across the heavens Venus in particular. You might give
    a call to your neighborhood Planetarium for an instant up-date! 
    You should be able to procure that 
    in any World Book encyclopedia under "Planets". I can't help but
    stare up at the Heavens and marvel at His handiwork. There is a
    grand scheme to the cosmos, and a supreme logic to it all. There
    are subtle laws that physicists spend a lifetime trying to understand
    that govern and influence the physical universe around us. There
    are relationships between the stars and who and what we are some
    say, while others can see ones destiny written in the palm of your
    hand.

    Well, you're just plain wrong there.   There *is* a symbolism there.
    
    	Astrology symbolism is a reflection of 'the whole'.  (That *same*
    whole you thought I had lost sight of over in the 'four body system'
    topic a few minutes ago?)   Oracles like Tarot or Astrology work 
    sychronistically, that is, the symbols just happen to fall in a 
    way that has meaning.   (The *value* of the meaning is arguable, 
    of course.)   I, personally, believe that since God created everything,
    that we can perceive meaning *anywhere* we look, even in the random
    fall of cards, or the 'chance' positions of the planets in the sky,
    since each is a part of the *whole*.   It may be that we project
    the meaning, or that it is out there and we discover it.   Whichever
    it is, the meaning *is* there.   The symbolism *is* real.
    
    	You seem to have rejected astrology while having only the dimmest
    understanding of what it is.   

    	Alan.
704.8There is a relation.CSCMA::SNOWWed Apr 27 1988 13:236
    Well someone in the astrology file found an answer to his question.
    The way in which the moon, venus, stars etc. is situated has alot
    to do with astrology..You should read the astrology file, you'll
    learn alot about how they are related.

704.9a blue moonGNUVAX::BOBBITTMy shoes are...on top of the worldTue May 31 1988 18:288
    Just a reminder - this morning there was a BLUE MOON.
    
    a blue moon happens when there are two full moons in the same month.
    So when people say things happen "once in a blue moon", well now
    you know to look out for them, eh?

    >Well someone in the astrology file found an answer to his question.
    
    What astrology file?
                     
    Re .9 (Jody):
    
    See Note 285.* on some further discussions of lunar influence. 
    I mention it because of its title.

704.11moon conjunct venusEXIT26::BISHOPTue Oct 25 1988 17:2515
    re .3
    
    I remember this conjunction last April,
    The point of the crescent almost "touching" Venus
    If you can figure out what sign the moon was in that
    day, you can look up what this "means" at your local
    library in the astrology section, or ask an astrologer.
    
    Aside from this there was a full moon last night that
    "Really" reminded me of Halloween.
    
    Hope you caught sight of it
