Re: St John's Tide and bd remedies
I have noticed Saturn having stong effects on things but this works on a ten,and thirty years cycle approximately. Saturn takes one year to cover the ground that the moon covers in one day on average. As you mention Jupiter has about one season in each constelation. Mercury has its retrograde cycle in a different contstelation each year. This year it is in the Earth elements of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. One thing that is often noticable in N.Z. is that it usually coincides with long or heavy snow seasons. We could well be into Mid December before the warmer weather settles in again.

May I suggest you look at the paragraph on 'Lunar Movements and Tides'. Last sentence.As the earth rotates, the bulge follows the side facing the Moon so there is a high tide about every 6 hours. Here we only get a high tide every 12 hours. My original question on root, leaf, flower or fruit years was not answered fully. Could some one expand on this intensify the 501 and what determines a root,leaf, flower or fruit year? It's new to me. Couldthe influence of Jupiter and the background constellationdetermine the influence year? Jupiter takes 11.86 years to circle the Sun. So Jupiter as seen fromEarth stays in the same constellation for about 1 year. Jupiter moves into Cancer 20th ofJuly this month. So if this is correct we are now moving towards a leaf year. could someone confirm this?

There you willfind all sorts of stuffnamelyclasses.Fortunately there is a class on COSMIC INFLUENCES. For those who know about that stuff, but have never seen the page, will be delighted to see some original graphs of Maria Thuns experiments.Real neat! http://www.oregonbd.org/Class/Mod3.htm Rbn

I can clumsily try. As the moon marches through the constellations and the days are root, leaf, flower, or fruit; the sun too marches through these constellations. As it is so, each year has a cycle more attuned to the energy of root, leaf, flower, fruit [earth, water, air, fire]. Hope that helps...SStorch

St John's Tide and bd remedies
Just back from the JPI workshop. Unearthed 500, and Yarrow, stuffed 30-40 bladders. Buried lots of silica, some in its fourth year of the cycle at JPI. (JPI does this to intensify the 501 effect, it goes through root, leaf, flower, fruit years}. Harvested and made two huge pillows of nettles. The nettles harvested was in the earth for two years. We discussed that Nettles is a Michaelmas preparation and should be put down and harvested at Michaelmas. Got back home and stuffed two bladders for my own use. Made some 501 using diatomacious earth [silicious in nature]. My own 500 came out very nice. That goes into a large olive jar buried in the earth and filled with screened bc and stuffed horns. That is all for now... from the Hamptons, the Land of Ahriman and Lucifer...sstorch
