This month's meeting will feature four 20-minute lectures by different local astrologers on a variety of topics. You can read the lecture descriptions and bios for each speaker below:

-- Lecture 1 --

Ann Lipofsky

The Four Angles of the Birth Chart

A lively 15-18 minute lecture with 3-5 minutes for questions and answers on the four angles of the birth chart: the ascendant, nadir, descendant, and midheaven. Attendees will be introduced to what the basic meaning of each angle is as well as the significance of conjunctions at each angle of the chart. Participants will be able to look at charts in a fresh way, allowing them to quickly assess a natal chart for basic guiding factors of soul’s journey.

-- Lecture 2 --

Heidi Crimmin

The Astrology of Financial Fraud (and how to protect yourself under the current Jupiter-Neptune opposition)

Idealism is high during key points in the 13-year Jupiter-Neptune cycle, and in the financial realm this can manifest as irrational exuberance and speculative bubbles, leaving some vulnerable people overextended or defrauded. I've looked at the charts of hundreds of people caught up in financial frauds (both as perpetrators and victims), and I've noticed repeating patterns that show the possibility of fraud, trickery and corruption. Come learn how to identify the most common astrological "red flags" for financial fraud.

-- Lecture 3 --

Constance Wells

Moon/Uranus Conjunct: The Truth Movement

What does a natal Moon conjunct Uranus look like when expressed by the native? Maybe at this time, the transits provide optimal conditions for the expression of this aspect. We analyze several charts to illustrate some ‘classic’ Moon/Uranus conjunction expressions and several other charts that seem as if they too should be Moon/Uranus conjunctions, but are not.

-- Lecture 4 --

Chris Brennan

Fate, Free-Will, and the Mechanism Underlying Astrology

This lecture will explore the intersection between the separate philosophical issues of fate and free-will, and the mechanism underlying astrology that allows it to work. I will show how all astrologers essentially fall into one of four fundamental philosophical positions with respect to these topics, and how one's position can influence their views and practice of astrology.

Each lecture will last for 20 minutes, with time for transitions in between, and a break in the middle of the meeting. After the lectures are over people are free to hang out and socialize in the cafe.

Please note that the Mercury Cafe serves brunch earlier in the day, so if anyone wants to come by early, around 1:00 PM or so, there will be some other astrologers there to meet and connect with.

If you can find a spot to park on the street then it is free, although there is a two hour limit on some spots. We recommend using the parking lot right across from the Mercury Cafe on the other side of California Street, which only charges $2 for parking on weekends.
