Analemma

I found a site today that gives a very helpful explanation of why the apparent path of the sun is sometimes slower and sometimes faster than clock time.


It is called analemma.com


P.S.
I started this post Wed, but did not publish it.  I'm posting it now because I like the visuals and explanations they include to help understand this cool concept of earth/sun time.

History of Analemma


Once again using this blog as a service for documenting the times of astrologically intriguing moments; in this case my sudden deepening of interest in analemma and the history of the concept.   Here is a link for the site just found....  Analemma Society.
