Lectures
Reconnecting the inner family: a model for the integration of the psychological Moon
Nuno MichaelsIn this lecture you will not only be “reintroduced” to your own Moon from a therapeutic perspective, but be offered with a simple, yet very useful model to help you - and your clients - access, communicate with, and integrate those “parts” of the Self that the Moon represents in your life and psyche.
Broadening the skies: from prediction to co-creation
Nuno MichaelsInstead of looking at planetary transits as a way of anticipating the future, we can use them to help us co-create it – and we will show you how. You will most likely come back from this lecture eager for your next major transit to happen – instead of worrying, or wondering what will happen when, let’s say, Pluto reaches your Moon, you will be eager, and ready, for it to happen.
Pluto and 8. house transits - forever young
Lea ImsiragicTransits that activate Pluto and 8. house in our horoscope are massages from our underworld or urge for change and grow. Much like Pluto itself, our 8. house elements are hidden from everyday perception. So every time when they become activated by transits in our life we have amazing opportunity to renew on all levels. You will learn and experience a new practical knowledge as never before.
The alchemy of the Earth wisdom
Gaisheda KheawokCelebrating the Wisdom and Remembrance of the Earth's Sacred Alchemy via the 13 Moons and Alignments of The Celtic Tribal Calendar. The Celtic and Tribal people synchronized their understandings of the natural world with the 13 lunar and solar calendars. Experience the Earth's Sacred Sites as significant gateways to our collective Inner Wisdom.
Learn to hear the voices of the Ancestors in the Wind and retrieve your spiritual inheritance from the living library that is the Earth Mother. Empower and Illuminate your perceptions via the Magic and Mystery of the Moon and Alchemy of the Earth's Remembrance.
Eris - A Planet for our Times
Henry SeltzerThere is a new planet emerging in Western Astrology to help us combat the various crises that currently confront us as a society. Named in 2006, Eris is termed a ‘dwarf’ planet, and is therefore in the same astronomical category now as Pluto. I will present information that I have uncovered during the past three years of research, demonstrating the power of this new archetype in charts, both natal and transiting, out of my book The Tenth Planet, published by The Wessex Astrologer, and also my recent TMA article (April 2015). I regard Eris as a Feminine Warrior energy in pursuit of soul intention.
Modern planets on the Tree of Life
Henry SeltzerUranus, Neptune and Pluto, with the recent additions of Chiron, and, now, Eris, are associated with the unconscious, that hidden part of ourselves which seminal 20th Century psychologist C. G. Jung brought to greater awareness. This fundamental personal investigation is also described by the esoteric structure known as Qabalah, or the Tree of Life. The symbolism of Qabalah includes Tarot and Astrology, and is a useful way to conceptualize energies that are associated with the hidden underpinning of our more conscious personalities. This talk will briefly outline this fascinating and complex topic, focusing on the addition of the modern planetary archetypes to this ancient European spiritual/magical body of work, and how to work with these concepts in daily life.
Sleeping dogs; Unaspected planets
Wendy StaceyHow do we interpret planets that do not have any major aspects in the birth chart? How do these planets connect or integrate with the other dynamics in the horoscope? This session will look at how Unaspected planets can be the most dominant and obvious placement in the birth chart, how they can behave and express themselves and explore the best way to utilize them.
Secrets of Attraction
Wendy StaceyHave you ever wondered why we are more attracted to some people than others? Or what the attraction is? Why are we more compatible with some people be it partners, friends, colleagues or peers - and not so compatible with others? What and who we are attracted can be explored through a multitude of factors in the birth chart. This lecture will address the specific nature of attraction through various examples.
Planets at the Bendings
Michelle GouldPlanets square the nodes represent sensitive points in a client’s chart often tied to charged issues and turning points. To develop a better sense as to why this may be so, we’ll compare Indian, Medieval, Babylonian and modern Western approaches to the nodes, as well as examining the astronomy behind the nodes. Finally we’ll use a case study to demonstrate how the bendings in solar return charts can time emotional shifts that lead to critical decisions in a client’s life.
The Asteroids of Healing and Healers
Michelle GouldIn this lecture we’ll look at the themes of healers and healing as described in various asteroids myths. Through chart examples, we’ll explore various myths, learn how to identify the myth in the chart, and see how these stories play out in the lives of clients.
Solar minimum, Jupiter-Saturn-Neptune t-square and the oncoming financial collapse
Öner DÖŞERDoes the solar minimum in 2017 and Jupiter-Saturn-Neptune square which will be active by the end of 2015 and through 2016 promise a disintegration and depression in financial markets? As the writer of Transition and Maximum books which relates the planetary alignment-solar activities-financial markets, Oner Doser will discuss the astrological possibilities on our near financial future.
Pre – Conferences Workshops

Working with Pluto, Chiron and Eris in charts
Henry SeltzerThree 90-minute sessions combining lecture with Q&A and then experiential work in group session with your own or another chart. Break up into groups of six; each chart would be considered by the remainder of the group and Henry will move from group to group and also respond to particularly significant questions for the entire workshop.
Session 1 - Eris in depth, entire workshop in session, example charts from the participants will be solicited for the group to explore
Session 2 - Pluto and Chiron, basic principles, plus group work. First 45 minutes - lecture, followed by break-out into smaller groups for working with all three of these modern depth-oriented planetary archetypes.
Session 3 - Begins with Q&A from the previous group break-outs, followed by 60-minute break-out into the same groups. Henry moves from group to group to participate and to answer questions.
The goal is that everyone gets hands-on experience with analysing participants charts; the charts that each individual brings forward could be their own or someone that they know well and are prepared to discuss in open session.

Introduction to the Asteroid Goddesses
Michelle GouldTying together modern psychological approaches and ancient insights, the asteroids are steeped in history, symbolism, and myth, which can enrich our chart delineation and consultations. This hands-on presentation will show you how to choose which asteroids to work with, determine the criteria to use, and incorporate them into your analysis. Using both case studies and charts, we’ll explore the four fundamental goddess archetypes, their histories, and the ways these mythologies still illuminate our lives.

Post – Conferences Workshops
From prediction to co-creation: making the most of our Transits
Nuno MichaelsIn this workshop we will expand, and apply in practical terms, some of the key ideas presented in the lecture. We will be able to recognize, and work with, the power of thought, perception, mental images, and intention as they apply to our life and birthchart: past, present, and future. Participants will be invited to look at astrological symbolism from a thought-provoking perspective, and apply those insights to their own charts, and as a group, we will support each other in co-creating the best possible future that lies dormant as a possibility in the natal chart.

Öner DÖŞERSolar Return charts may be considered as an annual chart and they are one of the most reliable techniques for the prediction of annual events in the native’s life.
