The World Awakening of Uranus Conjunct Sedna
Sunday, May 24, 2026 1-4 pm
In-person event at Cooperative Extension
4145 Branch Center Rd, Sacramento, CA 95827
We are experiencing a consciousness explosion as the planet of networked ideas, Uranus, meets the planet of spiritual destiny, Sedna, in Gemini, the sign of personal consciousness. This conjunction is exact at the end of May. This transit is giving you the opportunity to be more intuitive with what your soul really wants to do in this life and at the top level you might find that this enables your life be easy and love filled.
Sedna is talking about our soul growth and she is always trying to get us onto the spiritual path. When we are unconscious of her energy, she sends us transcendent crises to help us let go of our old consciousness framework and transcend to a new one. As we step up to do the soul-based work that we are here to do, we move through a fated transcendence to a more transpersonal consciousness. We learn to embrace our spiritual destiny and joyfully do what our soul wants to do, and this brings us transcendent peace and the ability to allow love and harmony, and nurture abundance.
So, this is a time to trust in your inner guidance, knowing that your intuition is a powerful navigator through these dynamic and shifting times. Let Uranus conjunct Sedna in Gemini inspire you to break free from conventional boundaries, and discover new dimensions of consciousness. This talk will give you an understanding of the soul growth potential of this transit and how best to work with it.

Antony L. Milner
The Astrology of AI
A New Instrument of Knowing and The Shadow of the Synthetic Mind
Sunday, May 3, 2026 1-4 pm
In-person event at Cooperative Extension
4145 Branch Center Rd, Sacramento, CA 95827
This three-hour workshop explores the emergence of artificial intelligence through the lens of astrology, philosophy, and planetary consciousness.
Part One: Conceptual Framework (Lecture & Discussion)
The opening section introduces the core ideas from The Astrology of AI: The Next Octave of Knowing and The Shadow of the Synthetic Mind. Building on the vision of humanity as the Earth’s cognitive organ, the session examines AI as a potential extension of planetary awareness, while also addressing its shadow: power concentration, abstraction without value, ecological cost, and ethical risk. Astrology is presented as humanity’s original symbolic language—one uniquely suited to illuminating this threshold moment. Case studies include charts associated with pivotal figures and events in the development of AI, and the public emergence of OpenAI’s ChatGPT and other AI platforms.
Part Two: Live Demonstrations — AI as Symbolic Synthesizer
The second half of the workshop shifts from theory to practice.
We will explore various AI platforms and compare their ability to synthesize astrological symbolism. Personal and mundane charts are explored to show how AI may be used to integrate archetypal themes into coherent narratives.
Focus & Takeaway
This workshop is NOT about surrendering astrological authority to technology. Rather, it investigates how augmented intelligence can serve to supplement the astrologer’s role.

Peter Burns
Horary in 1 Hour
Q&A Astrology at its very best
Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, June 28, 2026
2 – 4 PM PT
Horary is without peer in the astrology world for the ability to answer almost any question with speed and accuracy.
The principles upon which horary astrology is based are the same principles used for all branches of astrology. The difference is context .The focus of most horary questions is the short-term immediate future. Compare this to natal astrology where the focus is on a lifetime. With horary astrology there is no need to spend time consulting derived charts such as progressions, profections and solar arcs. The chart for the horary horoscope is complete. Embedded into its structure is the answer to the question.
Join me in an exploration of horary astrology and some of the methods used to answer everyday and personal questions on June 28, 2026 with our host The Sacramento Chapter of NCGR.

Jupiter: Truth AND Dare
Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, March 22, 2026
2 – 4 PM PT
Mighty and adored, Jupiter is the giant of astrology everyone wants a piece of! Jupiter’s blessings often capture the benevolent side of life, representing the principles of expansion and abundance that engender opportunity in our lives. Notwithstanding, Jupiter is also prominent in the charts of tyrants and in other less glamorous circumstances. How to reconcile those extremes?
We will explore:
– The True nature of Jupiter
– The Daring urge for magnificence
– How to handle the Shadow side and Karmic implications
– Jupiter Transits for the next years ahead – what to expect.
Truth AND Dare, Jupiter takes us to the edge of our soul!
