                Hey Jenn,

                Oooohhh, a mystery Eh?  Plugging in that date into Guide 7.0
gives me some
                warning that I am entering a Gregorian date that is before
the start of the
                Gregorian calendar, but will show the sky on that date
anyway.  Any way, the
                only thing that I can see with the planets are that Mars,
Venus and Mercury
                form a straight line, but not evenly spaced, in Aquarius and
Pisces.  Also,
                in Gemini, the moon (6.54 Days old) and Saturn are near one
another, which
                may have had an occultation in a different part of the
world.  The "unseen"
                planets are also nearby these other groupings.  What have
you gotten
                yourself into?  I'd love to hear what the significance for
this date!
