Saros 149
Newton's Ascent
Born the year before the Great Plague drove Newton into isolation where he revolutionized physics, this series carries the ascending energy of breakthroughs that emerge from periods of withdrawal.
About This Series
Solar Saros 149 began in 1664, just before the plague year that gave Newton his miraculous period of solitary discovery. At member 20 of 71, it develops with ascending energy. Its eclipses illuminate the breakthroughs that become possible when circumstances force withdrawal from the ordinary.
Interpretation
