Astrological Signs by Ava C

 Astrological Signs 

By: Ava Cody  

Astrology is the study of planets and stars as well as the belief that their movements and positions have an influence on the events, lives and behaviors of people. Astrology is a belief though because there is no real science to prove its impacts on human lives, but many people do see value in them. Within the study of Astrology there are Astrological signs which impact the human lives as they assign a person's characteristics, preferences, flaws and fears. The Astrological sign given to each human varies because they are based on the position of the sun, moon and the planets at the very moment that a person is born which of course varies from human to human. 

There is not just one type of Astrological sign; there are three different types of signs which are sun, moon and rising which are the three main planetary points in a person's birth chart that gives a person an outline of their everyday personality. Rising sign is what gives a person their outward appearance while the sun sign gives a person their unique identity and finally the moon sign which gives a person their emotional reactions. There are 12 different signs associated within each type of sign which are Taurus, Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces which should be thought about as categories. These different categories contain different traits and characteristics that influence the aspects of the three different types of signs and are what a person identifies their sun, moon and rising signs as. 

You may be wondering: how can I figure out my Astrological signs? It is surprisingly easy! You just need to know a few pieces of information about yourself which are your date of birth, time of birth and your place of birth. These pieces of information can be plugged into online calculators which will take these pieces of information and figure out the exact positions of the sun, moon and starts at the very moment of your birth which as we have previously discussed is what assigns a person their different categories of each sign type.

Crop analysis- Alfalfa Hay

  Crop analysis- Alfalfa Hay By: Connor Ingham                 Alfalfa hay is a leguminous plant that is grown mainly for silage, animal feed, or for a nitrogen supplying cover crop. Alfalfa, unlike most other plants, can grow for up to five production years after the first cutting of hay is complete. Commonly, alfalfa is mixed with other types of grasses, such as timothy hay, or oats that provide wind protection and frost protection during the winter, due to alfalfa’s low height. To begin the planting process, alfalfa can be planted with just a dusting of soil, typically in well drained areas for best quality, during any summertime month. The plant will surface normally within 15 days where it will grow into stems with generally a distinctive tri leaf design. This trend will continue as the plant gains a bush like shape into the mature age (around a height of 12 inches). Once the plant is mature, purple...

Crop Analysis- Timothy Hay

  Crop Analysis- Timothy Hay By Connor Ingham             Timothy hay is a cool weather grass that prefers damp soil, mainly in northern climates with an optimal temperature range around 75 degrees. This hay variety is grown for an ideal pasture crop, animal feed, or a grass cover crop. Timothy similar to other hay species, since timothy is a perennial plant (growing for many year), although it does lessen in production over its lifespan. The best time to establish a timothy crop is during the summer months, roughly before mid-August, which allows the plant to grow to an ideal height before winter freezing sets in. A firm seed bed, free of any visible stones, an application of 8-10 pounds per acre and a seed depth of ½ of an inch will provide the best start to the plant’s life. Timothy can be planted along with other grass/hay varieties, such as clover, alfalfa, birds-foot trefoil, or Kentucky blue grass which will blend in...
