Dave Campbell: Weather Astrology
19Th Hole Restauant and Lounge, 24122 Moulton Pkwy., Laguna Woods Golf Club, Laguna Woods, CA, USWeather Prediction: Why would you want to learn Weather Predicting?
To plan a wedding outdoors, would you not want good weather? Many businesses would benefit: for example, the German restaurant next to my store does an outdoor Octoberfest every year and they fly in the band from Germany. It is a huge deal. One year, they had to cancel the entire Octoberfest as we had severe monsoons and flooding that entire week! Had they consulted with a Weather Astrologer, they would have selected a different week to have the Fest, saving them thousands in non-refundable expenses like loss of food, as it had to be ordered months in advance, etc. Or you want to vacation in Florida in June? Better check for a hurricane before purchasing your travel and hotel!
If things turn out, we may have Dave come to speak at the 19th Hole in person!
As always, we are meeting in person at the 19th Hole Restaurant in Laguna Woods with a live stream via Zoom.

Loda Shaw: The Value of Relocation Astrology — Relocating Your Natal Chart
19Th Hole Restauant and Lounge, 24122 Moulton Pkwy., Laguna Woods Golf Club, Laguna Woods, CA, USWhen life prompts a move, whether through career, family, relationship changes, or financial need, astrology offers powerful guidance. Most practitioners begin with astro-mapping, but that is only the first step.
This lecture explores the technique of relocating the natal chart to a new geographic location. We will examine what remains constant, the planets in their natal signs and degrees, and what fundamentally shifts: the house cusps, the Ascendant, and the Midheaven, all recalculated for the new latitude and longitude.
We will discuss how this restructuring reframes planetary emphasis across the twelve houses, why certain life areas become activated or quieted in a new location, and how dormant aspects of personality can surface in a different environment.
By the end of this lecture, attendees will understand why relocation astrology provides a fuller, more personal picture than astro-mapping alone, revealing the opportunities, challenges, and version of themselves most likely to emerge in their new home.
This is a hybrid event: we'll meet in person at the beautiful 19th Hole Restaurant & Lounge with a live stream via Zoom. As always, locals are welcome to join us at 6:00 pm for dinner & social time.
Pre-registration is required to get gate clearance or the Zoom link. The fee to pay our speakers is $15 for non-SCAN members, and $10 for SCAN-Members. (SCAN Membership is $25 per year). Please contact our Director Laura DesJardins at 714-612-7335 for the link or gate pass.
