Llewellyn's 2006 Astrological calendar features 12 original paintings by artist Mia Bosna, who specializes in artwork inspired by the shamanic journey. The intriguing illustrations representing the 12 signs of the Zodiac reflect her experience with mystical realms, conveying the elemental nuance of each sign.

A fiery ram erupts out of a volcano, representing the enthusiastic, passionate nature of Mars-ruled Aries. A crimson scorpion descends into an underground cave, poised to dive into deep blue water, while gently cascading waterfalls stream down rocky steps-symbolic of Pluto-ruled Scorpio's tendency towards emotional intensity and intuitive depth. Rows of sunflowers line a lush field, while a few turn their "heads" toward a leonine sun-representing both the ruler of Leo and the shining nature of this proud, attention-seeking sign.

Bosna's captivating artwork notwithstanding, Llewellyn's 2006 Astrological Calendar provides much more than something pretty to look at every month. A full monthly horoscope for each of the 12 signs of the Zodiac by Carol Schwalm is provided, as well as the most rewarding and challenging days. For each day of the month, you'll find:

*Major daily aspects, with times included
*The Moon's sign, phase, and void-of-course dates and times
*Best fishing and planting dates

Each month also features one square dedicated to:

*Ruling planet
*Area of body the sign rules
*Element
*Nature
*Colors
*Glyph
*Symbol
*Birth dates
*Key words

In addition, this 40 page calendar includes:

*A comprehensive introduction to astrology (Planets, Signs, Houses, Aspects and Transits, Retrograde Planets, the Moon's influence through the Signs, Aspects Keywords).
*Lunar planting and activity chart
*Travel and vacation forecast by Bruce Scofield for each of the 12 Signs
*Ephemeris grids for 2006
*World Time Zones and Time Zone Conversions Map
*Retrograde Periods Grid
*Eclipse Dates

Bosna's subtle, intuitive art captures the energy of each sign while detailed astrological data helps star-watchers navigate planetary cycles, making Llewellyn's 2006 Astrological Calendar both elegant and pragmatic.

I use 3 wall calendars in my house and this one definitely has earned a spot for 2006!

I find this calendar to be invaluable. I've always dabbled a little in astrology and find the subject extremely interesting. Where this helps me in the customer service field is the schedule of the full moon. I'll tell you what...the week leading up to and ending with the full moon always gets our wackiest calls. At the very least, this gets me prepped for the looniness that ensues during that week.
Besides that, you also get a full astrology lesson in the back of each edition of Llewellyn's astrological calendar. You're also provided with the necessary tools to enable you to decipher the astrological symbols provided for each day of the week and how those days will measure up for you.

I've always found Llewellyn's calendars stocked with great artwork every year -- artwork suitable to be displayed in the office or at home.

If you have an interest in astrology and happen to be looking for a calendar, look no further than this item. And if you work in the customer service field like me and have noted how the phases of the moon dictate general goofiness, you'll find it to be invaluable!

Llewelyn's Astrological Guides are always high quality in their descriptions. Their explanations are suitable for everyone from novice to sage. Additionally, their artwork is always exquisite. I've enjoyed this prodect for several years.

Anyone who reads their horoscope, and likes to know when planetary alignments, moon phases, etc will occur needs this calendar.

Love these calendars ~ they improve every year. Wouldn't go anywhere without looking at this calendar first ~ Easy to consult, it's fun & stimulating to review potential event outcomes using the daily sun/moon/planetary movements.

Attractive calendar with interesting information, but non functioning as a useable calendar. Each day's block is filled with info and hard to determine actual date in the block from a distance.

Its just about the same as last year's, but I like the illustrations from last year better. It's still pretty cool.

gives the information I need to plan my day ,and space to make notes, Helpful, because at one quick glancs, I can see if and when the moon is void and aspects that need w,,atching,,plus all the information in the back,to help find things.without pulling out books on everything I,ve been buying it for myself, my daughter and to give as gifts for over 20 years, aand haven.t found any other to be as Helpful,
