Hello, I need a new planetary guide sorce since Jim Maynard is not coming out with a 2020 guide. I can’t useLlewellyn because it only has EST and I need PST. Jim Maynard also had an app that I would love to see someone replace. Thank you very much Carole
Hi, Carole. Yes, I was sorry to hear they're not producing the Maynard calendar for 2020! FYI: I bought Llewellyn's 2020 Daily Planetary Guide (the spiral bound desktop calendar), and it has BOTH EST and PST listed for every day of the year. The PST times are in bold face, by the way, so it seems they're especially highlighting those. Also, Susan Miller creates an annual calendar, and hers uses Pacific time for aspects; it's a wall calendar, and it has major aspects, although it doesn't mention lunar ones except new and full Moons. If you want complete aspect lists, the Llewellyn one does provide that. Thanks for getting in touch - have a wonderful day!
