winter solstice 2009

winter solstice 2009








About winter veiw by astrologist for detail as follow.
The Winter Solstice is an actual astronomical event that occurs when the earth's tilt is farthest away from the Sun. Today the astronomical Winter Solstice occurs at 17:47 UTC, or 12:47 pm Eastern time. This is also the time when the Sun shifts into the astrological sign of Capricorn, one of the cardinal signs that mark the turning of the seasons.

In the tropical zodiac which we use in Western astrology, the Sun shifts into the cardinal signs at the precise moment of the equinoxes and solstices even though due to the precession of the equinoxes the actual constellations no longer line up so nicely. (The Sun in the sidereal zodiac, which does line up with the actual constellations, is in Sagittarius at the moment.)
