NATIVE AMERICAN / NEW AGE "Raven Hail has captured the essence of ancient Cherokee teachings related to the 'sacred calendar' and the teachings of astrology and has preserved ancient Cherokee stories as a way to interpret this calendar."--J. T. Garrett, coauthor of Medicine of the Cherokee and The Cherokee Full CircleAn essential aspect of Cherokee religion is the belief that everything on Earth is the reflection of a star. This includes not only people and animals but also trees, rivers, stones, and mountains--all sentient beings to the Cherokee. Astrology has always played a strong role in the Cherokee tradition because of this belief, but unlike our Western system of astrology, Cherokee astrology is based on a 260-day Venus calendar, which includes twenty individual day signs and thirteen numbers. It was the task of the Cherokee daykeeper to coordinate this calendar with those of the Sun and the Moon to determine the most auspicious times for ceremonies as well as to understand the star wisdom carried back to Earth by each newborn child. The day sign of a child explains his or her strengths and weaknesses; the number explains the individual's role in the great cosmic scheme. Raven Hail, who was an elder of the Cherokee nation, provides insightful descriptions for each of the twenty signs that identify characteristics of those born under a particular day sign and gives the meanings of the thirteen numbers that determine the significance of that sign in the larger scheme of life. Her translation of the traditional Cherokee ephemeris into an easy-to-use format allows readers to quickly determine which sign rules the day of their birth and which number has influence over it. RAVEN HAIL (1921-2005) was a member of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma. She was the editor of The Raven Speaks, a monthly journal of Cherokee culture, and also wrote The Raven's Tales, Windsong, and The Pleiades Stones.
