First of all ***Congratulations!*** are in order to our very own chair person Susan Swan who has just been awarded her QHP from England's very own John Frawley. For those that don't know that means she is now a “Qualifying Horary Practitioner” - any questions, you know who to ask! Despite leading a very busy life jet-setting here there and everywhere (when she's not playing football, or fly-foxing over the Clyde) she whizzed her way through John's correspondence course – which we are told is no easy task. Not content with the new feather in her bow she has now just started another course with the lovely Bob Zoller. Watch this woman – she is just back from speaking at the Irish conference, won't be long till she's on the international speaking circuit, with her delightful Mercury in Leo, flying the flag for Scottish Astrology. Very well done Susan, from all at the SAA.
Our programme has now finished for the summer. On Saturday we had a very enjoyable, thought provoking day with Terry Lamb who came to us from sunny San Diego. Terry's topics were “Healing our Core Wound” and “The Astrology of Love Triangles” A big thank you to all those who attended. For those that missed the event, her talks taped successfully and you will be able to order them very soon from Robert.
Next on the agenda will be a committee meeting on the 16th July to organise the Autumn programme. While we are having our summer holiday our room in the Theosophical Society is having a make over, we will return to a nice new wooden floor.
