An essential aspect of Cherokee religion is the belief that everything on Earth is the reflection of a star. Astrology has always played a strong role in the Cherokee tradition because of this belief, but unlike our Western system of astrology, Cherokee astrology is based on a 260-day Venus calendar which includes 20 individual day signs and 13 numbers. In an easy-to-use format, Cherokee elder Raven Hail identifies the characteristics of each sign and number, and includes a traditional Cherokee ephemeris through 2015.
