Diamond Anniversary: the book for this milestone

Sixty years of marriage: the Diamond Anniversary celebrates something only a few ever experience. A couple who have stayed together for six decades often finds four generations gathered around them on this day.

Why is the 60th wedding anniversary called the “Diamond Wedding Anniversary”?

The diamond is the hardest material found in nature, and also the clearest: unbreakable, and priceless beyond compare. That is exactly how tradition honors a marriage after sixty years.

What is happening in the wedding sky after 60 years?

Sixty years after the wedding, Saturn has returned to its wedding-day position for the second time around the 59th year, and Jupiter completes its fifth full cycle around the 60th year. Tradition reads the second Saturn return as what endures: what has been tested twice is here to stay. Together with Jupiter, the Diamond Anniversary is therefore a milestone of gratitude. The book identifies which placements in your wedding sky carry this meaning.

What is in the Diamond Anniversary book?

The book tells your beginning, introduces you both, interprets your connection, reads the sky of your wedding day, and reflects on the cycles of these years through your shared path. The guiding thread brings together what has sustained sixty years. The diamond color palette and the number 60 on the cover are part of it all, set in a clear and easy-to-read font.

What do you give for the Diamond Anniversary?
