Jupiter’s Influence in Our Lives
Chet Zdrowski, facilitator
Jupiter will enter Aquarius on December 19 and will join Saturn in the first degree of Aquarius. The potential for a new direction has many astrologers excited. However new directions and their meaning take time to become clear and often there isn’t perspective until the first quarter square. For individuals, Jupiter is often associated with good luck, fortunate events and abundance. It’s almost seen as a cosmic Santa Claus! While there is truth in some of these associations, in practice we often see a more complicated picture. (more…)

Alexandra Karacostas
Relationships: The How and Why of it All – Relating to Others
Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, November 15, 2020
10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. [Note time change]
In this discussion we will explore the distinction between what we want in relationship versus the opportunities and limitations revealed in our astrological chart. For many, the word “relationship” often equates with romance, though this is not the focus of this talk. Relationships are layered and nuanced – we are children, lovers, friends, colleagues, family, etc.
Understanding our propensities, patterns, and the unconscious motives behind our interactions, helps us form reasonable expectations for creating balanced and meaningful relationships. How, why and when do we resonate with one another? Transits, progressions and timing tell the story.
Alexandra Karacostas is a professional astrologer based in northern California and Greece. An avid student of astrology since 1975, she has been practicing professionally since the 1980’s. Alexandra teaches and lectures nationally and abroad and serves an international clientele. Since 2007 Alexandra has served on the board of directors of the Organization for Professional Astrology (OPA) since 2007, and as President between 2010-2014. She continues to serve on the OPA faculty as a Peer Group and Consulting Skills facilitator. One of Alexandra’s passions is relationship astrology and in 1989 co-founded NCGR’s Synsyg chapter. She has written for various publication throughout the decades, was a columnist for The Mountain Astrologer magazine, and has contributed chapters for OPA’s books, The Professional Astrologer and the new Essential Astrology coming out soon.

Marie Schoeppel
How the Next US Presidential Term Could Affect the US Economy
Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, October 25, 2020
2 – 4 pm
The last instance of a Saturn-Pluto conjunction in the late degrees of Capricorn occurred in 1284. Philip IV became King of France under this influence, and the policies of his reign had serious consequences for France for the next several centuries.
As the Saturn-Pluto conjunction of 2020 is in effect at the time of the next US election, it will affect the US economy and politics, regardless of who wins. Marie Schoeppel will present her forecast on what is ahead for the US in the long term.
Marie Schoeppel has been an astrologer for over 25 years, emphasizing financial and political astrology. Her book, The Dragon’s Debt – An Investor’s Timeline to Profits During China’s Financial Crisis 2019-2020, is a forecast of the political and financial effects of the Saturn-Pluto conjunction for China and the Chinese Communist Party. She studied financial astrology with Michael Jenkins, author and publisher of Stock Cycles Forecast. She has a degree in Mathematics from UCLA, and successfully passed the ISAR Competency Exam. You can read her forecasts on her website at globaltrendscycles.com

Greg Bogart
Astrology as a Therapeutic Art: Healing Human Relationships
Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, September 20, 2020
2 – 4 pm
Astrology is a beacon in the relational sphere, shedding light on patterns of relating, the phases and seasons of relationships, the cyclical changing moods, and the planetary laws of attraction. Knowledge of my own astrological profile and consideration of the natal traits and current challenges of spouses, friends, and family members aids us in creating more emotionally fulfilling and more committed relationships with others. In this presentation we’ll look at examples of how astrological work can aid an individual’s or a couple’s understanding of relational experiences and patterns of behavior. We learn how relationships have been damaged; we envision ways they might be repaired.
Greg Bogart, PhD, MFT, is an astrologer and psychotherapist in Berkeley and El Cerrito, California and teaches at Sonoma State University. His new book, Astrology’s Higher Octaves, has just been published by Ibis Press. He is the author of Astrology and Spiritual Awakening, Planets in Therapy: Predictive Technique and the Art of Counseling, and Astrology and Meditation: The Fearless Contemplation of Change.
