Astrology is the sublime art of prediction. If free will ruled supreme, there would be no reason to do astrology. If fate ruled supreme, then why can’t astrology predict everything?

This lecture explores ways to reconcile the modern psychological worldview with classical predictive techniques. T...

Exploring the astrological chart of a child requires a different approach. Children are works in progress, and they are only beginning the journey of personal development.

As one of the unique areas of her work as a professional astrologer, Gloria has written books, articles, and even astrologic...

Georgia Stathis, a professional astrologer since 1978, demonstrates how to delineate a chart using modern rulerships -- the key to reading a chart accurately. Using the concept of rulerships assists you in refining the smaller, often unseen details in a horoscope.

Georgia taught this course at K...

The computer prints the chart in seconds. You only have an hour or so to do your consultation. Who is this person behind the chart and how do I begin to piece my understanding of the person and the chart together?

Before your in-depth chart analysis, first impression judgements of the horoscope ...

Most astrologers have encountered scientists or wannabe scientists who treat us as if we are superstitious, delusional nitwits. While they say never argue with a fool because people may not be able to tell the difference, what scientific arguments can astrologers present to give these closed-mind...

Astrology is a topic for intense study, one which engages the mind in delightful and fascinating ways. The more we study, however, the more we are drawn to think beyond the boundaries of our present life. When our curiosity takes us beyond those boundaries -- like a cat using up its nine lives --...

Discovery is not design but emerges through a synthesis of magical thinking and critical thinking. Discovery and creation is imaged in the psyche and birthed by the diligence of critical thinking. In astrology, we must employ both: to get to the core of the horoscope, the mystery of human resilie...

This lecture explores the nature of the different visual images presented to us by the three Venus-Mars conjunctions of 2015. We will continue the “all conjunctions are not created equal” theme from earlier in the track, this time by differentiating the three Venus-Mars conjunctions of 2013 accor...

Most of us are familiar with the image of the horoscope, that circular diagram divided into 12 parts inscribed with mysterious hieroglyphic symbols. But what is it about that wheel that calls to us?

Christine discusses and explores the way an astrologer views, interprets and learns to understand...

Rightly or wrongly, our ancient ancestors viewed our planet as the centre of the solar system. Nicolaus Copernicus, with the encouragement of astrologer Georg Joachim Rheticus, changed the way in which the collective understands the heavens. It is our own unique location on this planet that gives...

Almost anyone you meet will have the same story about how they were introduced to astrology, and that was by learning about their “sign” which is, in fact, their Sun sign. Most people, astrologers included, will agree that the Sun does hold an important place in a person’s horoscope, but there ar...

We all know something is happening. Our personal lives, our relationships to our governments, and the entire social structure we’ve been raised to accept — all are in upheaval and transition. As new planets are being discovered with periods of 500 years or more, and the shift of Regulus into Leo ...

We often think of the astrologer as a non-participating observer, someone who reports on the clients issues, timing, and choices. However, quantum physics tells us that the observer is actually part of the equation; the act of observation changes that which is observed.

The implications of this ...

Whenever we tell a story we take a position. The tone, style and perspective used to frame a narrative is unique to the teller. The interpretation of a chart, or of anything for that matter, requires judgement. In this lecture we examine how we find our voice and the implications of using it.

Every living and non-living entity lives within a matrix of potential manifestation, woven together within a pathway of sacred geometry, held together by intention — a holographic projection onto which matter is outlined. Your life is embedded within this larger vibratory field of intelligence th...

Astrology is traditionally seen as universally consisting of four natural elements: fire, earth, air and water. The elements are considered to be the foundation of all of life and are represented within the birth chart. When applied to human nature, the elements represent certain behaviors within...

Shame is common in the human experience. Shame is an attempt to self-regulate one's self-expression and to survive - but at what point is someone allowed to just simply live and breathe?

Saturn is the planet of shame, and the succedent houses in one's natal chart can show how one can cultivate a...

There’s a (relatively) new kid on the astrological block: Chiron. But what’s his story? Is he a planetoid, an asteroid, or a comet? How does his myth point to a spot in your chart where you’ll deal with addicts and addictions, tragic flaws, and the acceptance of imperfection?

Through the re-tell...

Is practical astrology divination? This question has become something of a hot potato, with psychological and archetypal astrologers joining together with died-in-wool traditionalists to declare the straightforwardly objective nature of our art’s symbolism and its results. We cover in detail the ...

Jung’s Red Book points towards a prophetic “spirit of the depths” at the heart of astrology, and his life-work reveals a deep appreciation of its symbolism. His concept of “synchronicity” has become a taken-for-granted argument in our defense. James Hillman loved the subject, was guided by his ho...

Gregory Clare is a retired commercial fisherman of 28 years (1974 - 2002).

Greg steered the boat at night with the aid of the stars. These many years of familiarity with the night sky set the scene for what was to become...

A slightly tongue-in-cheek investigation of horror, the macabre, and the dark side as revealed in the horoscopes of writers dominated by the archetype of Scorpio-Pluto. Of special interest are novelists and screenwriters who have bequeathed to us our favorite terrors: dark lords, demons, monsters...

Location does, indeed, make a difference. Just as important is the coordination of the right time to move, travel or connect to other places! In this presentation, Gloria explores relocation charts, Astro*Carto*Graphy (A*C*G), and the integration of cycles. Included is a focus on temporary and la...
