A Look Inside the PCal Day Planner
.jpg)
Our Most Complete Calendar
This version contains all the information found in the wall calendars, annotated forecasts, monthly plain language ephemeris, plus the Lunation Charts and Solar Ingress Chart for each month. The Calendar is shown as both the 'month-at-a-glance' and a 'week-at-a-glance' views with spacious areas for writing notes. Whether you are using this for organizing or journaling, it allows plenty of room for details and creativity. Like all the calendars it includes an overview look at the year ahead, and a peek at 2026, plus a bonus abbreviated chapter from our upcoming book Reclaiming Astrology from the Patriarchy.
Note: If you purchased this before Nov 1, 2024, please note that on the January Calendar page the Annotated letters are out of sequence, but the dates and Astrology are correct. The January dates are correct on the Forecast page(s), but one date off in the grid and appointment pages.
Sorry about that, it slipped past the editors.
Easy to Use Guide Video (not date specific)
Because the data and forecasts matter so much, the design is easy to read and use. The Monthly Ephemeris is even clearer this year and the annual ephemeris puts each month on its own page. It measures 5.5" wide X 8.5" high and we have expanded it to 200+ pages. It is calculated for Pacific Time.
The Day Planner
Even though the Planetary Calendar began in 1949, we designed and introduced our first Day Planner in 2020. Since then we have continued to make improvements and it contains the most amount of useful astrological information of any of our formats.
The Contents Page
The Planner is a complete book and so it needs a contents page to keep it all straight. However, to help you quickly find the forecasts and calendars the edges of the pages have black boxes to make navigating to where you want to go more quickly.
The Sign Guide

In order to personalize the calendar one needs to know the Planet that your Sun Sign most closely relates to in the outside world. So this all important guide is found immediatly after the Contents page.
Instructions
The Calendar is designed in an intuitive fashion that makes the information easy to understand. A complete mini-astrology course at the beginning of the Planner focuses on how to use the Calendar most effectively.
The Components
The all important daily data blocks are designed to be easy to relate to and we explain in detail what the data means and how to use it in your daily life.
The Components
Short chapters cover the essential astrological concepts that you need to get the most out of the Calendar. This is supplemented by our online videos.
The Lunation Charts
The four pages of the Forecast start with the two Lunation Charts to give you a picture of the month ahead. If a lunation is an Eclipse, it is marked as such, because you do not want to be surprised by that!
The Forecast
The annotated forecast highlights significant events in the month and offers insights about good general strategies. It also highlights certain Signs. That way whether it is your Sun, Rising or Moon, you have clues about what to expect.
The Ingress Chart
At the bottom of the fourth page of the forecast is the Solar Ingress Chart showing the day the Sun enters the next Sign. Between the Monthly Ephemeris and the three charts, it makes it easy to watch the evolving pattern of the Planets.
The Calendar
The Calendar spans two pages and it gives you the information when you need it. On the left side is a Glyph to English Guide with keywords. At the top right is the plain language monthly ephemeris.
