I think it's a neat idea. Why not? If you can find enough people to subscribe, go for it.

Sounds great. Count me in as at least a subscriber.
How would you produce the content? Yourself? A bunch of people from this and other communities?

I am going to start looking for people who are will to contribute things based on thier individual areas. I think for the most part I will keep my role to more of an editor than a writer. I am not saying that I won't write its just I would choose my topics carefully. As I would with anyone else really. I know there are certain things I just have no experience with and hence won't bother people with my thoughts on it.
The search begins.
I could use some help with planing a little. If any one is interested or just has suggestions please let me know. Things like topics you would like to see and such. PM, email, or leave here.
f course I think I will set up a web page for recruitement purposes.

Sounds good but just one thing, if you are going to use traditional mail, try to make sure you use paper from a sustainable forest , I think thats what they're called. Its where they plant a tree to replace the one they cut down. Or even use revcyled paper. good Karma and good for the environment!

"The biggest thing I would like to do about it is get it some what away from the often used ezine format and have it an honest snail mail publication." Hmm. I would gladly subscribe to an ezine. I think you might even get a bigger audience that way. I say this because my parents have absolutely no idea I'm involved with any of this, so they would be just a little confused when I started getting "Metaphysical Monthly" in the mail. [|)] I've met quite a few people here who are in the same situation. Just a thought. [  ] Good Luck! |

Everyone has an astrology section, but that doesn't mean that one more would be a bad idea. Most of the ones out there just use the western system. There are several others out there. It could be very interesting.

I have given serious thought to the ezine approach but for now it is some thing that I can not do. Maybe in the future who knows, but I will have to find some one who can do a lot of html and is willing to work for peanuts.
Astrology is a good idea. Again though I would like to find a original source and not just re-print from some one else.

Does this sound like a good idea or is it some thing that is over done and I am just not aware of it?

An excellent idea! I think email publication, nicely presented in HTML would be more practical however, and I can and will provide you with the mailing list resources - either under the Astral Pulse domain or one of your own if you prefer (I can register and manage a domain for you at cost - $12 per year), and provide you with a website on my server if you need one. Please let me know. Regards, Adrian. |

Well we will see how the E-zine aspect goes. My only problem with that is the HTML, I would need some one else to do it.
But look at it this way also, when your situations change the news letter will be there waiting.
