Sunday Stamps # 167

My this week went by fast! It seems like just a few days ago that I put up my last Sunday Stamps post. I have also been participating in the A to Z challenge over at  my other blog, http://viridian61.blogspot.com/. Over halfway done with the month, and the alphabet!

How has this week been for you? I hope it was a good one.

Our theme this week is zodiacal and zodiac signs on stamps.

I have been wanting to have this theme for some time, and it has been suggested by a reader at least once.  Alas, I did not have any stamps for such a theme until now.  A Postcrossing card recently arrived from Sri Lanka with the following stamp:


Here is the constellation Scorpius.  The stars in the sky behind the outline appear to be in the right positions (I used to watch the stars more than I do now and still remember their positions).

Do you have any zodiac stamps to share this week?

I have a page on Facebook: keep up with my infrequent  stamp, postcard, and quilt posts at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Viridian61/347674418583948?ref=hl

Theme next week: of children and for children.
Theme two weeks from now: Stamps from Russia or former communist countries. Does not have to be old stamps issued by those communist governments - can be from recent years.
