East London

Join us for an insightful astrology meetup where we’ll explore the powerful predictive technique of *secondary progressions*. Secondary progressions are a symbolic timing method in astrology that shows how your birth chart develops over time. Each planet moves forward at a different rate, reflecting its natural speed. The progressed Moon moves quite quickly—about a degree per month—highlighting shifts in mood and emotional focus, while the Sun and other planets move more slowly, describing longer phases of personal growth and change. In this session, we’ll cover: ✨ What secondary progressions are and how they work ✨ The difference between your natal chart and progressed chart ✨ Key progressed elements (Sun, Moon, Ascendant, and personal planets) ✨ How shifts in planetary motion show up—such as a progressed planet turning retrograde or direct, signaling internal turning points or changes in direction ✨ How to interpret major progressed changes (like a progressed Moon sign shift or progressed Sun changes) ✨ Practical ways to use progressions for self-awareness and decision-making Secondary progressions don’t predict events in a literal sense—they reflect your *inner timing* and readiness for change. They help answer questions like: * Why am I feeling different lately? * What phase of life am I in? * Where is my personal growth leading me next? 🪐 Bring your birth details if you’d like to follow along with your own chart! **Guidelines**: – Start: 18:30 sharp (arrive earlier if you like) – Please stay on the topic of astrology – Respect, warmth, and honesty are essential – Kindly RSVP in advance, as we need to confirm with the venue Warm regards, Finja, Maca, Sara & Julian *We collect a 5€ cash contribution on site to support the platform costs.*

Together we wander through a UNESCO heritage forest sitting on top of dramatic chalk cliffs that plunge into the emerald waters of the Baltic Sea. The cherry on top of our nature adventure is our visit to one of the most **Disney-like castles in Germany – Schloss Schwerin** and our stay in the charming Hanseatic harbour town of Rostock. **WHAT IS THE DETAILED PLAN?** **Day 1:** We catch a train to the picturesque castle of Schwerin. Schwerin castle sits on an island surrounded by lakes & forests, which all contributes to give it that stunning appearance. We meet our local guide outside the train station and then proceed getting enthralled by his stories about this magical castle town with the tour finishing right by the castle. Post the guided tour, we grab a bite / drink and admire the Castle gardens before heading to Rostock, where we would be staying in for the next 2 nights. **Day 2:** Post breakfast, we are off to briefly explore the Hanseatic town of Rostock. We then take a train to the seaside town of Sassnitz to discover Rügen island and hike in UNESCO listed national park Jasmund along stunning white chalk cliffs that reach up to 100 meters while surrounded by beech forests. We hike almost the entire Jasmund National park, finishing back at Sassnitz and grabbing a bite / drink before heading back to Rostock. **Day 3:** Post breakfast & checkout, we take a mix of train & bus to get to the beautiful seaside resort town of Nienhagen (hike starting point), where we would be hiking between Nienhagen beach & Warnemunde beach, one of Germany’s most beautiful beaches. We’ll say hello to an iconic lighthouse and walk 500m into the Baltic sea on a pier in Warnemunde where we grab a bite / drink before heading back to Rostock and then back home.

**Book Club** For **LGBTQIA+** **[Free with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/book-club/w15-2026)** **“Box Hill” by Adam Mars-Jones (2020)** In 1975, eighteen-year-old Colin meets the older biker Ray on Box Hill. Their chance encounter leads to a six-year, tightly controlled relationship in which power, dependence and intimacy intertwine. Told two decades later, the novel offers a nostalgic yet unsparing portrait of a male world shaped by motorcycle racing, power games and dry British humour. This story of a problematic SM relationship inspired the movie “Pillion” by Harry Lighton. On the Sunday of his eighteenth birthday, in 1975, Colin takes a walk on Box Hill, a biker hang-out in Surrey. There he accidentally trips over Ray, a biker napping under a tree. From the very first moment, the natural authority of the older man in leather exerts an irresistible attraction on Colin. The consequences are his first sexual experience, his first ride on a Norton Commando and his first relationship. On the very same day, he moves in with him – the beginning of a six-year, strictly regimented coupledom in which the boundaries between submission and security dissolve. Told with a time lag of almost twenty years, “Box Hill” depitcs a male idyll of unbridled motorcycle racing, draconian power games and dirty poker rounds with nostalgia, tenderness a charming dose of British humour. **Book Club** Fur **LGTBQIA+** **[Kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/book-club/w15-2026)** **„Box Hill“ von Adam Mars-Jones (2020)** Diese Geschichte einer problematischen SM-Beziehung inspirierte den Film „Pillion“ von Harry Lighton. Am Sonntag seines achtzehnten Geburtstags im Jahr 1975 macht Colin einen Spaziergang auf dem Box Hill, einem Treffpunkt für Motorradfahrer in Surrey. Dort stolpert er versehentlich über Ray, einen Motorradfahrer, der unter einem Baum ein Nickerchen macht. Die natürliche Autorität des deutlich älteren Mannes mit der Lederkluft übt vom ersten Moment an eine unbezwingbare Anziehungskraft auf Colin aus. Die Folgen sind seine erste sexuelle Erfahrung, seine erste Fahrt auf einer Norton Commando und seine erste Beziehung. Noch am selben Tag zieht er bei Ray ein – der Beginn einer sechs Jahre andauernden, streng reglementierten Zweisamkeit, in der sich die Grenzen zwischen Unterwerfung und Geborgenheit auflösen. Mit einem Zeitlichen Abstand von knapp zwanzig Jahren erzählt, enthüllt „Box Hill“ ein Männerwelt-Idyll aus ungebremsten Motorrad-Rennfahrten, drakonischen Machtspielen und versauten Poker-Runden mit Nostalgie, Zärtlichkeit und einer charmanten Portion britischen Humors.

Moving to Berlin is an adventure, but let’s be real—the "Berlin Schnauze" (the city's famous bluntness) can be a bit intimidating, and finding your people takes time. Whether you arrived last week or last year, if you’re looking to break out of the "expat bubble" or just find some friendly faces in your neighborhood, this is for you. We’re gathering at **Ä Stube**, a cozy, alternative gem in the heart of Neukölln. Think dim lights, great music, and a relaxed atmosphere where you don't have to shout to be heard. We can't wait to welcome you to the neighborhood. 🥨✨

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who enjoy talking to people from other countries, and those who would like to discuss international travel and culture, and who enjoy getting together for good conversations."

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
