It had been a note in my phone since 2022, and now the idea is finally here: Introducing the Isle of Man Astrology collection, a series of 12 illustrated cards/mini prints and a very Isle of Man 2026 calendar, complete with Manx translations of the signs and months, IoM holidays and term times, Celtic seasons and festivals, and astrological dates and moon phases.
Each sign has an original illustration that puts a Manx twist on the zodiac, from a centaur pulling the Douglas horse tram for Sagittarius, to a matching pair of Supertwin bikers at Snaefell for Gemini. There’s the scales of justice weighing moots at Tynwald Hill for Libra, perhaps Lady Isabella herself pouring water down the Laxey Wheel for Aquarius, and the list goes on…find your sign and see if you can catch all the connections.
14-page, 14.8cm wide x 42cm high, thumb-cut hanging 2026 calendar with 250gsm covers and 170gsm interior pages, bound with spiral wire.
Includes original illustrations, Manx translations of zodiac signs and months, Isle of Man public holidays, IoM notable dates and unofficial holidays, IoM term times, astrological seasons, Celtic seasons and festivals, and moon phases.
Artwork is an original illustration with an Isle of Man twist, and includes the astrology sign name and Manx translation, the date range, zodiac symbol, constellation, element symbol, and Three Legs of Mann.
