Steven Rosati
Enhanced with vibrant colours and metallic gold paint, the reverse design by Jori van der Linde features an intertwined sun and moon engraved at the centre of a celestial circle, which is divided into 30-degree sections that house each of the 12 western zodiac signs (counterclockwise from the 9 o’clock position): Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Set against a deep blue night sky filled with stars, the zodiac signs are rendered in an illustrative style and paired with their engraved glyph, which appears in the inner ring. The sun’s long rays form divisional lines, as they radiate outward towards the moon phases engraved along the outer edge in counterclockwise order, beginning with the new moon in the 12 o’clock position. The obverse features a wavy pattern behind the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
Jori van der Linde, Artist
“I thoroughly enjoyed creating this intricate coin and all its elements, especially the sun motif. The long, wavy sun rays extend to the edges like celestial fingers, elegantly dividing the symbols and highlighting the starlit beauty of each zodiac illustration.”

Robin has a new site on Trigrams and Astrology.
https://rasa.ws/embed/#?secret=vwkWNmyPwV
Robin has six new websites about the I Ching and astrology.
I Ching Links
The I Ching is a zodiac of 64 divisions. Each hexagram line relates to a Zodiac degree. This site shows the correspondences, gives interpretive examples and to tools for you to work forward on your own.
https://www.astrologyiching.com/embed/#?secret=d4Qr6LaXuY
This site Explains in detail the relationship of the I Ching to the cycles of the year, the month and the day. In other words to the Zodiac signs, the moon phases and aspects, and to the daily houses.
https://www.ichingastrology.com/embed/#?secret=1yL1nYQORr
A site about the I Ching with a good history, and instructions about how to divine a hexagram using yarrow stalks, coins or dice. There are also the deeper implications and meaning of the I Ching in the Great Treatise.
https://www.ichi-ng.com/embed/#?secret=boV280lPAS
This site presents a completely new interpretation of each hexagram and hexagram line. References to the Superior Man and his virtue, have been removed. In this interpretation One does this or One does that. The advice is given for the individual and not just for the man. This is a significant change in the I Ching. Not to be thought of as a replacement for the old, but as an add on for more modern and astrological significance.
https://www.iching-hexagrams.com
This is a site of cosmic alignment. The relationship of the I Ching to numbers, Kabbalah, the Seven Rays, Zodiac Signs and Houses are presented.
https://www.i-ching-changes.com
This is a site that takes the I Ching beyond words. It shows how to drum the hexagrams and then how to interpret them musically in melodies. It also shows how to chant the hexagrams, working to turn duality into unity.
