Summer Solstice Happy Summertime! For the Northern hemisphere, the summer solstice is the time of the year when the Sun reaches its northernmost point in the sky (southernmost point in the Southern hemisphere). It is also noted by some more humorous astronomers as the day that men talk the most! The solstices are noteworthy in that they mark the longest and shortest days of the year, as measured |
by the number of hours between sunrise and sunset on these days. The shadows cast at noon are also the shortest at this summer time of year. Around noontime, the Sun will be at its highest altitude possible above the horizon and the Sun will have moved as far north as it can as marked against the horizon line. The actual time of the Summer solstice occurs this year on June 21 at 1:16 pm EDT (December 21 in the Southern hemisphere). The summer solstice marks the first day of the summer season.

| How Bad Can A Good Planet Be |
| Students of Jyotish frequently have challenges with the concept of the natural and functional status of a planet. The purpose of this article is to clearly explain these concepts to our beginning students. The "Natural" status of a planet never changes. Jupiter is a benefic planet, and will always display a certain level of positive and supportive qualities. Saturn, a malefic, will always present a level of challenge or obstacles. How a planet actually operates in an individual chart is called the "Functional" or "Temporal" status of a planet. This changes according to house rulership. Basically, by Lagna.

| Featured Jyotishi - Vic Di Cara |
 |  | Being involved in underground music, I came into contact with radical religious and spiritual ideas at a young age.
