Total solar eclipse in Turkey, March 29 2006

Published January 2nd, 2006 in Misc, Turkey Tags: solar eclipse, turkey, turkish.

On March 29, 2006, a total solar eclipse will occur as the moon moves directly between the earth and the sun. The moon’s shadow will fall on the earth, first darkening the eastern tip of Brazil, and then moving across the Atlantic Ocean to make landfall in Ghana. It will continue moving northeast through Nigeria, Niger, Libya, and Egypt, then across the Mediterranean and into Turkey. (See map here: http://www.eclipse2006.boun.edu.tr/path.gif)

All human beings are invited to respond to the spectacular cosmic symbolism of the total solar eclipse “Eye of God” by observing World Day of Conscience on Wednesday March 29, 2006 and on all future days when this symbolic “Eye of God” metaphorically “looks down from the heavens” above our planet Earth. World Day of Conscience seeks to promote the healthy exercise of human conscience at all levels, from the deeply personal and intimate right through to “global conscience.” World Day of Conscience should be observed in ways that call attention to, and seek redress for, any and all forms of injustices and abuses that occur in the world. Special attention should be given to those matters of conscience in the domains of human rights, civil liberties, and social justice, as well as serious environmental and ecological concerns.

All the individuals and groups who choose to observe World Day of Conscience are free to determine the most appropriate ways for them to do so. Religious and spiritual observances are certainly encouraged however non-religious manners of observing World Day of Conscience are also very appropriate. Suggestions for various ways of observing World Day of Conscience are welcomed, as are diverse forms of support for World Day of Conscience. At present the most urgent need for co-operation and support is simply to spread the news about World Day of Conscience as rapidly and as widely as possible to human beings in all parts of the world. Ultimately World Day of Conscience aspires to encourage the regular and healthy exercise of human consciences and to promote the global warming of human hearts world-wide.

I would encourage people to join the SU (StumbleUpon) interactive blogging community for a very interesting blogging experience with a community of highly creative souls. My own SU blog deals mainly with World Day of Conscience networking, total solar eclipse lore, and diverse other “stumbles.”
