Dancing with the Divine - the Magic of Horary 10.00am-5.00pm Horary astrology is an important tool in the art of predictive astrology. It consists of erecting a chart for the very moment a question is formulated. Within that chart lies not only the roots of the dilemma contained in the question but also the possible answer to the question itself. What's more it can suggest various options as the person realises the part they play not only in the question but also in its outcome. Horary astrology reveals the interplay of fate and freewill in our lives and as such is truly magical. See flyer for more details. |

Astro-Picking your Moment 10.00am-5.00pm Electional astrology is generally defined as the technique that allows us to look ahead and select the ideal moment to undertake or begin something important. But it offers more than that, because electional charts have a fascinating ability to expose the strengths and weaknesses inherent in our plans. This workshop will explain the traditional techniques used in electional astrology, explore its history and philosophical basis, and demonstrate its usefulness in a number of case histories. We will also be looking at how the techniques used in horary and electional astrology offer a reliable approach for gaining insight into the significance of event charts. See flyer for more details |
