2025, A World in Transition

Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, January 26, 2025
2-4 pm

2025 begins with a nodal axis sign shift and Mars retrograde followed by Venus retrograde in rapid succession. Past the first quarter of the year, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus, and Jupiter make sign changes. After two years of brief previews, the year ahead marks our first full year of the Pluto, the Great Transformer, in Aquarius. Rarely have so many planetary shifts happened in such a short time! Expect to pack a lot of living into the year ahead! Rose Marcus Website: https://rosemarcus.com

November 10 – Cycles of Being with Antony L. Milner

Cycles of Being

The cyclic experience—in the biosphere, personal space-time, and the unfolding resonance of planetary cycles

Sunday, November 10, 2024 1-4 pm

In-person event at Cooperative Extension 4145 Branch Center Rd, Sacramento, CA 95827

At the foundation of any holistic approach to astrology is the experience of relatedness between macrocosm and microcosm—between cycles of planetary motion and the unfoldment of individual consciousness. As Dane Rudhyar states. “Astrology is philosophically meaningless unless it rests on a thorough understanding of cycles and the creative potency of every moment.” In this workshop we will revisit Rudhyar’s foundational ideas of cyclicity, and the associated concepts of wholes in time and space, and the “self” centered astrological mandala as a means to reveal personal resonance with astrological archetypes. 

Cycles of Being sample slide

In the second half of this workshop, we will have some hands-on practical applications and shared insights using the Phase Mandala and other cycle mapping tools designed by the speaker. These tools can be accessed here*. * Note: The link to this online folder will contain the relevant media closer to the date of the workshop. To complement the presentation, audio selections from Rudhyar’s recorded lectures, readings and music are included.

Attendees will receive a 16 GB USB drive with the presentation, printout files for Cyclic Phase Charting and others. In addition, the USB drive will contain the published audio archive of Rudhyar’s taped lectures, including readings and poetry from his works. 
 
Following the workshop, we plan to take Tony out to dinner at a nearby restaurant and attendees are most welcome to join us!
