This challenge is to read books that have their main character born during the zodiac sign that is based on the current date across three calendars.

The guildlines are as follows:

1. Read at least one book during that zodiac’s season that has a main character born during that season.

That’s it! It can be any genre, any length, any book you want!

This is also made for the three main calendars used to track zodiacs:

1. Tropical Zodiac - This zodiac calendar is based around the idea that the 0° starting point of Aries coincides with the March/Spring/Vernal Equinox and the North American seasons, and all subsequent sign dates are based on the degree it hits after that start (30° spaced after the start of the previous sign to form a complete 360° circular calendar). This calendar will use the label [TROPICAL] on goals.

2. Sidereal Zodiac - This zodiac calendar is based around the idea that the zodiac signs are linked to the position of the  sun and planets relative to the fixed constellations, with Aries as the 0° starting point for all zodiac dates (spaced 30° after the start of the previous sign to form a complete 360° circular calendar). For this challenge, we are using the Fagan-Bradley Sidereal Calendar. This calendar will use the label [SIDEREAL] on goals.

3. IAU Boundaries Zodiac - This zodiac calendar is based around the idea that there are 13 zodiac signs instead of 12, including previously ignored constellation of Orphiuchus. The zodiac signs are calculated based the trajectory of the sun passing through the constellations. This Calendar will use the label [IAU] on goals.

For each goal, the calendar that it is referencing will be listed in the beginning of the goal title like so:

[CALENDAR] Goal

Because of the varying dates for each calendar, this challenge runs just over a Gregorian calendar year (394 days) to allow for people to finish the challenge in its entirety.

I also wanted to add some bonus challenges for those who want a harder challenge, which can be finished in conjunction with the other base goals that are listed. Those will be labeled as:

[BONUS] Goal

Bonus goals may be added as we go, but they will be only bonus ones so they do not affect your base challenge.

I made this challenge set up this way instead of separate challenges to allow for people who may wish to do all three of the calendars at once and keep that info together in one place. If you wish to do the challenge with a single calendar without the others included, or a combination of two instead of all theee, you can find them easily under the following titles on my profile or in the search [CURRENTLY BEING CREATED; WILL BE UP BY MARCH 19th].

Single Calendar:
1. Tropical Zodiac Reading Challenge
2. Sidereal Zodiac Reading Challenge
3. IAU Boundaries Zodiac Reading Challenge

Dual Calendar:
1. Tropical/Sidereal Zodiac Reading Challenge
2. Tropical/IAU Boundaries Zodiac Reading Challenge
3. Sidereal/IAU Boundaries Zodiac Reading Challenge

Overall, just have fun with it! This is just to really have a lighthearted challenge that brings some fun to the year for those who appreciate astrology and astronomy. I have always loved the stars, astronomy, and astrology, and I wish to share my love with others who also have it.
