Solar eclipses have fascinated humanity for millennia and continue to inspire wonder and awe in the modern age.

In my [ TheOhmStore ] part of Texas, we're essentially totally shut down today -- as more than 250,000 visitors stream into our small town to experience the spectacular wonder.

We've [ TheOhmStore ] dedicated this email today, to exploring the fascination with these cosmic events -- across how various civilizations have observed and celebrated them.

In Ancient Egypt, solar eclipses were viewed as epic battles between the gods, a cosmic struggle between light and darkness.

The ancient Egyptians engaged in elaborate rituals to ensure the victory of Ra, the sun god, over the serpent deity Apep, believed to cause the eclipse.

In Ancient Greece, solar eclipses were both a scientific puzzle and a mythological spectacle.

Philosophers like Thales and Anaxagoras offered naturalistic explanations for eclipses, while myths and legends imbued these events with drama and significance.

In Ancient Rome, solar eclipses were interpreted as omens of political upheaval or divine intervention.

Emperors and citizens alike sought to appease the gods and avert potential disasters through rituals and sacrifices.

Across the jungles of Mesoamerica, the ancient Maya revered solar eclipses as symbols of cosmic balance and the cyclical nature of time.

Priests meticulously tracked eclipses and conducted rituals to honor the sun god Kinich Ahau.

In the modern era, solar eclipses are celebrated as opportunities for scientific discovery and communal engagement.

Astronomers and enthusiasts around the world eagerly anticipate eclipses, using advanced technology and research to study these phenomena and unravel the mysteries of the universe.

Meanwhile, communities gather to witness eclipses together, sharing in the wonder and beauty of the cosmic spectacle.

So....How will you be observing today?

Hello, Libras! It's your season!

From September 23 to October 22, the Sun is in Libra. The period when the Sun aligns with Libra coincides with the Autumnal Equinox (September Equinox), which marks the beginning of Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere.

You are a dreamer. You are the peacekeeper. You long for meaningful experiences. The Libra sign thrives when they feel balanced and fulfilled in their life. Ruled by the planet Venus, Libra longs for harmonious relationships, insisting on honest and open communication with compromise and negotiation. The Libra sign also tends to overthink, a trait that can be channeled into more positive thinking with daily meditation practice.

A few beneficial crystal companions...

| CITRINE - Citrine is a genuine self-confidence-boosting crystal. Citrine energizes and cleanses the Solar Plexus, promotes joy, enthusiasm, and motivation, and enhances self-esteem. It carries uplifting energies that encourage self-expression.

| APATITE - Provides innovative solutions to complex problems. Strengthens the throat chakra so they can use their own voice to speak out and face those undercurrents of conflict without fear.

| CLEAR QUARTZ - Reduces confusion, thereby helping Libras to be more decisive. It also promotes a positive outlook and helps them to live in the present moment. It improves concentration and stimulates intellectual processes. With its help, Libra sun signs can discover their purpose and find the answers they are seeking.

| SELENITE - Selenite is a stone of purification that encourages inner peace, calming the mind. This beautiful gypsum can help you manifest love and light in abundance.

When it comes to crystal power, there are many gems out there that can be beautifully beneficial to those born under the banner of Libra. Finding the right healing crystals for Librans means understanding their natural qualities, strengths, and weaknesses and finding stones that can have specific properties that align with these moods. Librans may work best with stones that promote feelings of harmony, peace, and love. They can also benefit from communication crystals that encourage them to speak their truth without fear. They can also work with gems that enhance decision-making, confidence, and personal growth overall. Finding the right ones that speak to the individual Libra spirit is the key!

New Moon in Virgo! Do you have a project you’d like to start at home or at work? Take advantage of Virgo’s need to organize, declutter & streamline. A great time to get lingering tasks & projects back on track. 🌑✨

NEW MOON IN VIRGO!

The era of establishing some order in our lives has arrived. On September 14, the new moon in Virgo will bestow its gifts upon us, pushing us forward and inspiring us to be productive in the areas of our lives that need it most. This energy will bring us a fresh, organized start — and you can use it to your advantage.

Virgo is a sign that likes effective time management and getting stuff done. During this new moon, you may feel a stronger urge to get organized, whether it's in your personal life, work, or home environment. It's an excellent time for decluttering and streamlining your routines. Be realistic, though — Rome wasn't built in a day, and your new-and-improved routine won't be as foolproof as you want it to be during the glow of a new moon.

This is a great time to manifest a dream, a longing wish, or to plant seeds of ideas for a new project. As the Moon grows in light, so will the intentions you set during this time.

RUTILATED QUARTZ is one of the most powerful NEW MOON crystals that can help you manifest your intentions. This crystal exhibits the power of active self-manifestation through personal will, drive, and action.
