Vedic Astrology and Career Selection

Angular planets, which affect the 1st house or the 10th,

invariably provide clues to the best career options for

any individual. In turn, certain combinations of two or

more planets provide more specific indications of

career. This technique, applicable to both western and

Vedic astrology, is easy to understand and apply, and is

invaluable for advising clients at a career crossroads.

Peter Burns

When will it Happen?

Many questions put to the horary astrologer revolve

around time: the moment of fulfilment. The client wants

to know the answers to such questions as when their

soul mate will appear in their life, when the cheque will

arrive, and when is a good time to go on holiday. It is

one thing to determine that an event will take place. It is

quite another to determine when it will take place. The

technique for determining the answer to when an event

will take place is relatively simple, but most students

manage to complicate the issue unnecessarily. In this

lecture Peter Burns will explain some of the foundation

techniques of horary astrology and how to use a timing

method that actually works.

The Visual Dimensions of the

Venus - Mars Cycle

This lecture explores the nature of the different visual

images presented to us by the 3 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 3 Venus-

Mars conjunctions of 2013 according to

morning/evening appearance and speed (who is

passing whom?). We will discuss how these

differences can and should modify and extend our

delineations, what this might mean for our forecasting

and client work, and what the ramifications are for the

field of astrology itself.

Points of View?

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

implications of using it.

Shadow Planets

Conversations generally turn serious when it comes to

topics involving Scorpio, Pluto and the 8th house. We

seem to conjure up a mysterious curiosity over the 8th

archetype unlike anywhere else in the chart. Ever

wonder what lies buried in the darkness of your own

8th house? What happens if you accidentally stumble

upon it and release it? Is that a good thing or

something to be avoided? This lecture will focus on

the 8th archetype and its hidden shadow. We'll

explore the dark side of public figures whose

unhealed shadows have caught them off guard and

literally knocked them off their pedestals. We'll also

take a look at techniques for facing our shadow sides

in order to heal, benefit and grow through 8th-house

transformations.

The Blue Planet: A Geocentric View

of Our Relationship with the Sun

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 us a personal

perspective of how the sky works. If I live in the

Northern Hemisphere what do I see differently from

those who live in the Southern Hemisphere? In this

workshop we will look at how the celestial equator and

the earth's obliquity change our perspectives.

Brian Clark

Ensouling Place: Being Here Now

Studies have shown that we humans generally identify

place with safety, consigning it to either end of a

spectrum that extends from security to isolation. Who

can explain why we are drawn to certain places from a

young age, or have a penchant for moors or deserts

while others are repelled by them. Why are some

drawn to caves, others open spaces? Some prefer

cities, others villages. From a soulful perspective, the

natal and relocated charts can help to confirm the

mystery of our feelings and reveal patterns to places

that are significant in our lives. In this lecture we will

consider place from the perspective of the soul using

the natal and relocated chart to help us consciously

cooperate with ensouling both our personal and our

collective space through attending to and participating

with where we are.

Spotlight on Success: Making the

In this talk, Frank will explore the many facets of the

Midheaven (MC). This much-neglected angle has

much to say about our reputation and public image,

and, as part of an axis, our parental messages and

family inheritance. Astrologically, our MC complex

reveals our personal definition of success and our

deep-seated drives to make a societal/professional

contribution. We can gain recognition when we "follow

our bliss" and adopt the roles described by it. In this

talk, Frank will offer new insights from his years of

research into the MC–IC axis.

Aries: Pioneer, Warrior, or Lone

Wolf?

I will describe a research study that helps us

understand what the influence of the zodiac sign Aries

really is. This evidence for the meaning of Aries is

based on a research design that modern research

methodologists consider to be better than the usual

ways that we use to verify astrological ideas. The

research design used is an "extreme case study," and

it is a research design that does not require as much

effort as many other research designs, is fun to

conduct, and modern researchers would say that the

findings are more important than the findings we get

from looking at charts of freinds, family, clients, and

famous people. We will also briefly look at the

research on other zodiac signs.

Colleen Coffey

Fortuna and Daimon -- Part of

Fortune, Part of Spirit

Traditional astrology was festooned with a myriad of

Arabian Parts. Unfortunately only the Part of Fortune

(Fortuna) has made the transition into modern

astrology. It is said that this is so because Ptolemy

made much of the Part of Fortune in his Tetrabiblos

because "fortune" was tangible and could "prove"

astrology, but he made no mention of its "soul mate"

the Part of Spirit because the "spirit" is indefinable and

not so easily "proved." However, these two parts are a

pair, like bread and butter, and the Sun and Moon

they are meant to go together -- in fact as a pair they

reflect the Sun and Moon in the natal chart and

together with the Ascendant they underpin the

Lunation personality type. This lecture puts the Part of

Spirit back into the natal chart, discusses the

difference between day and night charts, and from a

traditional baseline, considers the relevance and how

to utilize the combined strength of these two ancient

parts in modern physiological astrology.

Geoffrey Cornelius

Divination Theory and Practical

Astrology

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 will cover in detail the case for and against

astrology-as-divination, and show the relationship of

this question to that of the role of imagination and the

"symbolic attitude." We also explore some of the

leading-edge approaches of contemporary scholar-

astrologers sympathetic to the divinatory

interpretation, including Dorian Gieseler Greenbaum,

Patrick Curry and James Brockbank.

The Capricorn Stellium

At BDTB-2, I gave a general introduction to stelliums.

However, that was a long time ago, and now the word

is starting to get out that there are now more people

with stelliums with an outer planet conjunction as the

core than ever before. And more and more of them

are coming to astrologers for answers on how to

manage those combinations. Over the past 50 years,

there have been a series of them, starting in Virgo and

complicating one sign after another. My primary

concern, and the one I'd like to address in my lecture,

is the Capricorn Stellium generation in their mid-20s,

born with a triple conjunction of Uranus, Saturn, and

Neptune. Millions of them were born in 1988-89, and

those born in the winter months could have as many

as 7 planets in Capricorn. Since the last time these

three planets were conjunct was in 1307, astrologers

need information on how this combination works and

ways to help them use the planets' energies in a more

constructive way.

Mastery of Prediction

It is said that the meaning of communication is the

response you get. In prediction nothing is more

important than the client's response, for he or she

knows more about the potential future than the

astrologer. Prediction works when astrologer and

client cooperate to co-create a believable and

attractive future. Transits and progressions help

create the overall picture, but if you want to be able to

explain in exquisite detail what is going on, then you

need the chart for the moment the consultation starts.

This talk explains how.

Clockwise & Counter-Clockwise:

Timing Through the Houses &

Two effective and easy-to-use forecast methods from

the treasures of the past. One is known as

"Profection," which is based on signs/house

sequence, and works hand in hand with the solar

return chart. The other is the "D-Quadrant System,"

based on the diurnal motion in the course of the first

day after birth, and covers much longer periods of life.

It is a truly an evolutionary approach, since it

describes the personal development throughout life

and shows when the natal potentials blossom and

come to fruition. When both systems are integrated

we are shown the highlights of life. They are easy to

master and are "a must" whether you read for yourself

or others.

Principles of Electional Astrology

Success or failure of a new activity, association or

event depends mainly on the time when this is started.

Luckily, electional astrology exists to help us to find

the most favorable (or sometimes the least

unfavorable) time to attain success in important

events such as getting married, opening a business,

medical surgery, starting a trip, etc. Electional

astrology has different rules than natal astrology, and

here we will learn them in theory and in practice.

Fiery Travels: The Story of the Via

Combusta

This is the story of a small stretch of sky. The Via

Combusta (fiery road) is a small stretch of sky, usually

defined as mid-Libra to mid-Scorpio, that is seen by

astrologers as A Bad Thing. When the Moon is there,

it bodes bad results for horary astrologers, shows

serious problems for electional astrologers and can be

generally worrying for other astrologers. And that is

the sum total of most astrologers' knowledge about it.

Throughout the centuries, astrological writers have

been extremely reticent about the Via Combusta,

seemingly assuming that it's so mind-bogglingly

obvious what it means that they needn't waste words

writing about it. The truth is that the Via Combusta is

so ancient, we can no longer be sure from where it

originated. But we can explore where the idea of the

Via Combusta might have come from and why it

endured as a concept for so many centuries.

Additionally, this book examines how it has been

interpreted by astrologers in the past. The Via Combusta is a small stretch of sky. And this is its

story.

Avoiding Relationship Pitfalls: Love

Asteroids in Synastry

The "Love Asteroids" include Cupido, Sappho, Eros

and Amor whose chart placements indicate who you

are attracted to as well as what your expectations are

of a lover. If you're always attracted to people with

whom you are not compatible, then it's likely that this

problem originates here. Since expectations are so

important in relationships, using these asteroids in

either natal readings or synastry helps point out where

any pitfalls may lie, which allows you or your client to

deal with them more effectively or perhaps avoid them

entirely.

All Conjunctions Are Not Created

Equal

All western astrology shares the round horoscopic

wheel as its main tool. Yet how much of the celestial

reality do our chart wheels portray? The truth is, not

very much at all. This lecture will first introduce the

key "missing ingredients" of the living sky -- Earth

proximity, visual appearances, planetary brightness,

declination, latitude and speed, using several sky

softwares to visually demonstrate them. We'll then

learn how to include these missing factors into our

chart work with ease, once we understand just

enough of the astronomy. We'll culminate with a

special look at eclipses and occultations as wonderful

examples of just why all conjunctions are plainly not

created equal.

The Phases of Mars

Join me as we discover the little-known celestial

factors which link modern astrology to the very origins

of our astrological tradition. I'll then apply them to

reveal the "living sky" meanings of the thirteen phases

of Mars. Each Phase answers the question, "What is

my natal Mars in service to, beyond myself?" Our

natal phase signifies our inner masculine (residing in

both women and men) dharma of tangibly improving

our societal sphere in personally fulfilling ways. I will

demonstrate how knowledge of Mars' sky factors

combine with sound astrological delineation to greatly

increase scope and accuracy in working with Mars'

higher manifestations.

We could say that the Oxyrhynchus papyri is a sort of

Among some unknown-until-now literary works and

many prosaic documents (like various transactions'

receipts and wedding invitations) there have been

Transits in Early Youth and Youth

Until Puberty: How Your Sensitivity

and Circumstances in Early Youth

Can Influence Your Adult Life

Uranus, Neptune and Pluto can transit important

planets and points when we are very young. That

does not mean that something must happen, although

things could happen. Transits first and for all

emphasize the issues you are sensitive of during that

transit, so if even a minor thing happens in line with

the meaning of the transit, you will sense the impact

much more than without that transit. And the

psychological impact of these events can create an

unconscious though powerful basis for your actions

later in life. If politicians are not enough aware of how

early youth could have programmed them, their

political decisions will be in line with those

unconscious programs. The same is true, though in a

different way, for transits until puberty. We will look in-

depth in an example to illustrate the dynamics.

Midlife crisis of one's early 40s is the most famous (or infamous) life milestone -- but what are the other ones? This talk is about the "grand scheme" of things in one's life. We'll take a look at how twists and turns of life get reflected by the cycles of faraway planets: Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.

Roderick Kidston

Juno -- The Lady of Personal Power

This is a topic dear to Roderick Kidston's heart. He

has a different take on Juno, one which gives much

greater honour and emphasis to the asteroid which is

the astrological conduit for the energy of Juno, Queen

of Heaven. When astrologers first started investigating

the asteroids, Juno was offered almost entirely as a

symbol of marriage and partnership and the issues

that arise in close relationships. That's a start, but the

great lady who presides on Mount Olympus as the

queen of all the gods and goddesses is about

something much more fundamental than who does

what in the relating game. This lecture goes deeper,

into the heart of what Juno is as an astrological

symbol, and as a divine archetype. It examines the

deeper implications of what "goddess energy" means,

what shakti is, what it means to look at the feminine

principle as involved with power: real power, deep

power, the power that is fundamental to all spiritual

endeavour and which underpins all power in the

manifest universe, come to that. Juno shows us where

the true power is in the horoscope. If you want to

know where your personal power is, what some of

your deepest talents are -- though possibly unclaimed

and unexpressed, or only partially manifested -- then

you need to engage with Juno and make friends with

this very mighty, very splendid goddess.

Born Under a Bad Sign?

Many astrologers believe that there are no bad signs,

malefic planets, or dreadful aspects. If this is so, and

the birth chart is a true reflection of the person, then

how do we account for the existence of aberrant and

pathological behavior? Aren't there bad, malicious,

and dreadful people in the world? Are there bad

charts or is every chart, as Richard Idemon once

wrote, the perfect chart? Can one discern the chart of

a saint from a sinner? This presentation will focus

upon the extreme expressions of sign/planet/house

dynamics and is designed to foster insight toward

understanding our own capacity for immoral,

problematic, and harmful behavior, recognizing that a

person without shadow is also a person without

substance.

Lynn Koiner

The 12th House

The 12th House represents issues, qualities and

traits that have become repressed in the personality.

Planets in this house represent traits and qualities that

were deemed intolerable to be expressed by a parent

-- they were intimidating to a parent, and the individual

learned to repress these qualities and feelings. This is

a super-powerful house, and planets that fall into this

house are dynamic, but it is essential that you learn to

release their energies by finding an outlet -- in the

career, in the avocation or some other external

activity. Lynn will be presenting a lecture on her

observations of 12th house planets in the natal chart.

She will also introduce her theory of regressing the

chart into your parents' past, which she uses in giving

a greater understanding of the source of these issues. $29.95 Get it now at IAA e-store!

Rick Levine

The Astrologer as an Agent of

Change

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 are great. As astrologers, we

cannot deny or otherwise avoid our roles as agents of

change. So what do we do about this? How do we

accept the responsibility of altering the lives of our

clients? And where do we go from here?

The Astrology of the Evolution of

our Species

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 and Virgo, as well as

the positions of Neptune and Pluto at the end of the

Zodiac, all demand that the practice of Astrology

change to meet the needs of all human beings on

Earth. People still need to pay their bills, educate their

kids, and find a shred of romance in this world. And of

course our job is to help them do that. But the

enormity of social transformation cannot be ignored..

Mercury, Venus & Mars: Up Close

and Personal

"Mercury in the morning, Venus in the evening, Mars

at suppertime..." So why is Mercury so darned elusive

at being spotted in our twilight skies? Just when you

thought you should be able to get a clear sighting of

him you don't, but then another time almost

unexpectedly there he is. But is it really him? Because

he never quite looks the same as he did last time

around. Why is that? The trickiest of planets to be

pinned down: now you see him, now you don't. Venus

though has no such stage nerves as she dazzles and

bewitches us for much of the year as that most

brilliant of morning and evening stars, slipping

gracefully from view only briefly before reappearing on

the opposite horizon. No wonder that for some long

time our ancestors thought this was two different

stars. Mars meanwhile, in all his orangey-reddish

glory, comes sabre-rattling in our night skies roughly

every two years, growing bigger and bolder and

holding station over a period of some months and

then slowly fades away from whence he came. We

explore the cycles of these most personal and

individual of celestial bodies in their orbits around the

Breaking Down the Borders - 3 Ma - Mo

Sun and look at how the natures of their differing

rhythms and varying visibilities as viewed from planet

Earth has shaped the characteristics we attribute to

them and what can then be further drawn out from a

chart to enliven and enrich our astrological interpretations.

The Big Three: Sun, Moon, and

Ascendant

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 are two other factors

that hold about equal weight, but are usually unknown

by many, and that is the Moon sign and ascendant,

a.k.a. the rising sign. This introductory lecture will help

explain why these are known as "The Big Three" and

how you can start to understand why a Sun sign alone

cannot explain much of your core personality. With the

knowledge gained from this lecture, you will have a

tool that can help you to see the people in your life

with a little more clarity and understanding.

Planetary Aspects as Personal

Myths

Planetary aspects symbolize underlying personal

myths that determine our thoughts, feelings, and

perceptions. These myths often have their origins in

childhood experiences, which serve as prototypes for

later experiences of analogous quality and meaning.

By seeing aspects as thematic patterns that link the

present to the past, we are in a position to re-author

our lives toward more satisfying outcomes. In this

lecture, we will explore how to deconstruct planetary

aspects to reveal the core beliefs they signify.

Location as an Agency of Growth

and Healing

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 that is ever-changing and

perpetually becoming conscious. As astrologers, we

are fascinated and absorbed by time as the agency of

our on-going process of change. However, your life

emerges not only within the abstraction of time but

also within the context of space. Consequently your

life force is not simply contained within your physical

body but extends across time and space as you draw

into your Field people, ideas and circumstances that

trigger a multitude of growth possibilities that

ultimately serves to help you return to your Source.

Everything and everyone we encounter throughout

our lives has a purpose, serving to assist us in healing

the illusion of our separation consciousness and

rediscover our whole being. By expanding our frame

of reference to include the world as a canvas onto

which our internal process is mapped, the potential for

healing and spiritual growth is immense. Literally, your

internal process is global! During this talk I propose to

explore how astro-locality techniques can be used to

help our clients understand the multi-dimensional

perspective of their growth process. Rather than using

locality astrology to describe what will happen within a

particular location, this talk will explore what individual

and unique processes are "held" within the socio-

physical matrix of location that can trigger the

evolution of your consciousness, using practical

examples and case studies. I hope you feel the nudge

to join me on this exploration.

Introduction to Vedic Palmistry:

Hand-in-Hand with Vedic Astrology

In the honored Vedic tradition, the ancient science of

Vedic palmistry is considered a sister science to Vedic

astrology. Known by various names -- Hasta Rekha

Shastra, Hasta Samudrika and Hast Jyotisha -- Vedic

palmistry corroborates and substantiates the

information provided by the astrological birth chart.

This presentation will introduce the science of palm

and hand reading as it can be used in conjunction with

Vedic astrology to describe dynamic karmic patterns

reflected in character traits, behaviors and attitudes.

We will examine how the hands not only reveal but

also enact the balance of body, mind and spirit

through the three gunas (principles of nature) and
