Waves

Waves accom­pa­nies the Mea­sur­ing His­tory and is part of the Used­Karma fam­ily of pub­li­ca­tions. These include Used­Karma and mundaneastrology.net. This Word­press pow­ered blog intends to com­ple­ment these other web pub­li­ca­tions and expand on the pos­si­bil­i­ties Mea­sur­ing His­tory presents. Since begin­ning in earnest to dis­cover how to best apply Mun­dane Astrol­ogy to his­tory and social com­men­tary, I con­tin­u­ally amaze at the pos­si­bilites avail­able in this under used field. I under­stand that few yet see the value of tying astrol­ogy to his­tory, but worry not. Used­Karma, Mea­sur­ing His­tory and mundaneastrology.net takes a middle-of-the-road, will not com­ment until researched approach to both his­tory and astrology.

One of the prob­lems of his­tory comes from its wordi­ness. A few thin vol­umes cover a spe­cific short-period or local con­cern, but most tomes on the topic begin at 200 pages and grow from there. Few alter­na­tives than telling the com­plete story arise. Mea­sur­ing His­tory does not dif­fer. At the same time, blogs and the Inter­net present the oppor­tu­nity both to cull and dis­sem­i­nate infor­ma­tion more widely and effi­ciently than any pre­vi­ous time. Much of the research the reader will find here was eas­ily found and is ref­er­enced through search engines. In this light, view Waves as a con­duit between more exten­sive work and easy-to-follow lesson

Since this is until now a solo effort with lit­tle back­ing, my time is lim­ited but over time that cir­cum­stance will change. Please know that Waves, Mea­sur­ing His­tory and her sis­ter pub­li­ca­tions will grow from a rich soil of knowl­edge I have only begun to cultivate.

One aspect Mea­sur­ing His­tory is an abil­ity to extrap­o­late future expec­ta­tions based on mea­sure­ments of the past. Expect to see much work in this vein.

Mea­sur­ing His­tory is in con­stant research mode. Often my idea of slack­ing is catch­ing up my  back­log of books that rest around my bed. Read­ers will know what I have read, what I am read­ing and their rel­e­vance both to Mea­sur­ing His­tory and our time. Of course, we live in a mul­ti­me­dia world, so reviews will reflect this reality.

Lastly, the chal­lenge of pen­ning Mea­sur­ing His­tory, the Series, is a unique under­tak­ing of which  I know no par­al­lel. Expect to learn of the chal­lenges and joys of cre­at­ing a project few if any have ever undertaken.
