The trivia contest will begin Monday, April 26th, 2004. Keep your eyes on this thread for questions!

The first two people to answer 10 trivia questions correctly will win the prize. This contest is open to anyone living in the US who is aged 18 or older. Only posts that are unedited will be accepted as answers. Prize will be shipped to the winner at no cost to the winner. Archangel Oracle Cards is worth $15.95.

To read my review of this beautiful deck, visit: http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art19552.asp
The trivia questions will be general questions about New Age stuff like astrology and chakras, as well as angels, religion, myth, healing, New Age/New Thought authors, and spirituality. You will be able to find some of the answers in my articles.

Check back Monday! You never know when I'll post a question. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> (I tend to post more than one question a day.)

I'm really sorry about that. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> In the future, if you forget something, you can just create a whole new post.

I saw your original post, and the correct answer was indeed unedited at that point. But because you edited it, I have to keep the contest above board and stick to the rule of "no edited responses allowed". This will protect me, the winners, and BellaOnline.com from charges of fraud.

I hope you understand! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

They are in aspect?

Shannon: 2 Points

However, the answer is not correct about the two planets together. They are aspected, as all planets are. But what is the aspect called when the planets are together?

2. On the Edge of Business Bliss (oh, note to self...listen to that one!)
3. An ultimate healer/teacher?

(hehehe would it be letting the cat outta the bag if I told you that last week when I went to Amazon to buy these cards, my Inner Counselor told me you'd be giving them away? My intention is out there to win <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> LOLOLOL THANKS, ABRAHAM!)

<img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> btw, I used your recent article for my answer...as in the Sun passing through ALL 12 houses, thus producing one's "Sun Sign". However, I see it says it is ALSO associated with the 5th house.

So, since I see Ringois is back in the game (hiya, Ring! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> ), I decided to go for the another approach!

The question was which House (singular) is the Sun associated with, not which house does the Sun pass through. All planets and luminaries pass through all the Houses of the Zodiac. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> That's what astrolgers read for transits and such.

After looking up some information, it seems that Graves was indeed instrumental in solidifying Celtic astrology. But the Tree symbols, runes, and astrological correlation existed before him. I've bookmarked the page and read a bit of it already. Neat! Thanks for passing it along.

I have a fascinating book I'll be reviewing soon by the Phyllis Vega, the same author who co-wrote Power Tarot.

I'll agree that the tree symbols existed before him. My mother and father are members of RDNA and I know that this book caused some controversy within their grove. I am not a member nor have I read the book so I can't comment either way. I'm looking forward to reading your review.

RDNA - Reformed Druids of North America

A grove is like a group, circle, coven, etc.

Pretty much anything dealing with historical references to the celtic or druid culture is touchy. Everything was oral, no one can really know what happened, how they really lived, etc, but they can speculate based on what facts we do know. The problem is some people speculate a little too much, putting their own spin on it and calling it "historical fact". That's where I have a problem. If someone says, this is my interpretation, then that's fine but if they say, this is fact, they'd better be able to back it up and most can't. I'll post some specifcs on Graves later, time to go home ; )

Correct, Mike! :music: (And welcome to the New Age Forum <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ) Ba-gua does, indeed, literally mean "8 trigrams". I was thinking in terms of ringois' answer (8 sides), but your definition is correct as well.

You're most welcome, Janey!

If I keep having these contests, I may have to resort to general trivia questions! LOL! :rolling:

By the way, I have a contest in the works, but I want to write a review of the item first. (I have a feeling yerbatera will be especially interested since it was in her Tarot/Oracle wish list.) *whistles* :angel:
