The Sun entered is Aries in March, 20th, and the dawn of March 21st opened the new year. This day is an ancient Persian feast of the New Year called Nowruz.
Omar Khayyam says in his Nowruz-name:
As for the reason of the establishment of Nowruz, it is the following:
The Sun has two revolutions. One of them is when the Sun returns to the first minutes of Aries every 365 and 1/4 days…
When Jamshid comprehended this day, he called it Nowruz and established the feast. Kings and other people followed him.
Nowadays, Nowruz is the traditional feast in several countries including post-Soviet republics of the Central Asia, and it is a feast in my family as well. My wife spent few years of her childhood in Tajikistan, where this feast has been celebrated all through the ages. From the other hand, Russian astrologers celebrate a vernal equinox as the Astrologer’s Day. We have doubled reason to celebrate this day thereby 
From time to time we find there are many things besides astrology in our life. From time to time we find that everything in our life is astrology. It’s all very well 
Sometimes you can meet a maniac and find it is a good chance to observe the effects of atra bilis or overheated melancholy 
Last weekend we opened an exhibition of my wife’s paintings in the State Art Museum in the kremlin. This event had a strong scent of Venus – the aesthetic feast with paintings, chamber music and buffet tables.
This prompted me pay my attention to Venus in a period of the exhibition. And I found a pretty curious condition of Venus in this period.
There is a small update in the Tools. I’ve added a new tool. This new tool can find a point of the ecliptic from its right ascension, oblique ascension, and oblique descension.
I thank rabbi Avraham Ibn Ezra for the inspiration Checking his method of cusps calculations, I felt a necessity of this tool.
Though, it is a usual thing in old-fashioned calculations in various house systems, actually. Regiomontanus has the same searching for the ecliptical point from its oblique ascension.
There is a considerable upgrade in Tools.
Hour Distance Calculator is updated. The new version can produce not only a hour distance, but temporal hours and semi-arcs as well.
Old and good Oblique And Right Ascensions Table Generator is online again, and it is updated as well. Now it produces not only right and oblique ascensions, but oblique descensions as well.
Two new tools are added:
The Converter Of Coordinates can convert equatorial coordinates into ecliptical and vice versa.
Ascensions And Descensions Calculator can calculate right ascension, oblique ascension, and oblique descension of a point of the celestial sphere from its ecliptical coordinates, and oblique ascension and descension of a point from its equatorial coordinates.
I hope you will find these new tools useful, and they help you in your hard astrological life
