Jupiter Conjunct Uranus: Revolution and Awakening Summit

with Mark Jones, Kelly Surtees, Lynn Bell, Brian Clark, Carole Taylor, Alejo Lopez, Christeen Skinner, Demetra George, Steven Forrest and Keiron Le Grice

Jupiter forms a conjunction with Uranus in Taurus in April 2024.

Contacts between Jupiter and Uranus present exciting opportunities for an exploration of new horizons as well as disruptive events that set us on a completely new trajectory. In this astrology summit, we’ll explore Jupiter-Uranus aspects in world events, in natal charts, and by transit.

Jupiter-Uranus aspects signal potentials for rebellion, awakening, breakthrough, revolution, peak experiences and quantum leaps. Your summit experts will explore this transit from several vantage points, including the deeply personal, the political and social impacts, and from a financial perspective.

Join us for a rare opportunity to discuss this liberating archetypal combo while it is forming in real time.

Speakers will explore the meanings of both planets in aspect, talk about the potentials in world events, including 2024. Some speakers will elucidate natal chart potentials of this aspect, while others will talk about mundane correlations.

Date: March 23, 2024 at 9am Pacific time (first talk is live, the rest are pre-recorded)

Intro to Cosmos and Psyche

with Safron Rossi and Tony Howard

In this course we’ll read one of the most important astrology texts of our times as we explore the archetypal approach to astrology. Cosmos and Psyche is a richly layered text and a powerful demonstration of planetary aspect theory at work. Drawing on years of research, Richard Tarnas reveals the connection between planetary cycles and archetypal experience on Earth.

This book is considered difficult to approach by some, both in its volume, but also in its depth and thoroughness. Your instructors will help make the profound concepts in the book more accessible to you and as you uncover its rich and inspiring message.

We won’t have time to read the entire book in this first of two four-week courses on the subject, so we will focus on the Saturn-Pluto chapters to examine some of the resonant themes of the current times. Professor Safron Rossi will guide us through the first three sections, in which we see the value of astrology as an antidote to destructive existential and mechanistic thinking in addition to learning how to see and engage with the living archetypal world.

Course includes: 6+ hours of instruction, 4 live Q&A sessions, weekly reading assignments and homework. Video, audio and handouts are available to view and/or download.

Cosmos and Psyche 201 – Cycles of Creativity and Expansion

with Safron Rossi and Tony Howard

In this course we will continue our study of Cosmos and Psyche with a focus on two cycles: Jupiter-Uranus and Uranus-Neptune. As we read the text, your instructors will map out ways to incorporate this inspiring material into your astrological chart analysis whether working with clients or seeking to understand world events. As we mine the gifts of an archetypal approach to astrology, we’ll also learn how to approach important transits in both the collective and in personal experience.

The Lunar Nodes 201 – Aspects to the Nodes

with Mark Jones

In this course, Mark follows up his introduction to the interpretive power of the lunar nodes in The Lunar Nodes 101. Picking up from there, we will explore the power of the nodes to illuminate the individual life purpose within the natal chart.

Our focus will be to:

    • Understand the importance of the nodes as indicators of the personal spiritual meaning of one’s life.
    • Explore the lunar node symbolism through the nature of the ecliptic in astrology and the Moon’s crossing of the ecliptic pointing to a message about the Soul’s purpose.
    • Learn how to interpret aspects to the lunar nodes with special attention to the meaning of planets conjunct and square the nodes.
    • Understand the special importance of the rulers of the nodes and the way that they shape the impact of the nodes on the individual.

Course includes: 6+ hours of instruction, four live Q&A sessions, discussion area, weekly reading assignments and homework. Video, audio, and handouts are available to view and/or download.

Aries Point Spotlight

with Kathy Rose

When a natal planet of angle is located at the Aries point – 0 degree of any cardinal sign – there is enhanced opportunity for public visibility, even fame.

There is also a powerful spotlight focused on a planet that moves to the Aries Point by Solar Arc. When we see this in a client’s chart, we can guide them to participate in the spectacular bloom in that life arena.

Intro to Electional Astrology

with Mary Shea

Mary Shea introduces the art of electional astrology – how to choose auspicious dates, and specific times on those dates, for important actions. Mary has been practicing electional astrology since the 1980s. She has a wealth of practical knowledge and successful electional charts to demonstrate how to apply the technique. In this course you’ll learn some of the most important electional rules for planets, houses and aspects.

You’ll also learn Mary’s time-tested approach grounded in the belief that a great electional chart isn’t one that just “follows the rules.” An electional chart needs to “speak to” the specific intention for the election, and can also provide instructions on how to succeed. Mary will introduce students to the many ways an electional chart can be used, including business and marriage charts. Want to buy a house for less, sell a house for more, publish a book, or file a complaint for a computer upgrade? Electional astrology can be used for these intentions and many more.

Some electional astrologers approach this technique from the perspective of attempting to control outcomes. But here, you’ll learn how to apply electional astrology in the context of intentional manifestation principles that see our actions and intentions as part of a co-creative process with the cosmos.

Course includes: 3+ hours of instruction, homework and reading assignments, and two recorded Q&A sessions. You may ask questions in the discussion area as you move through the material.

Planetary Returns: the Returns of Mercury, Venus and Mars

with Carole Taylor

All planets return to their natal place after one full circuit of the zodiac and we can pinpoint exactly when this will occur, to the exact arc-second. The return of the Sun of course gives us the Solar Return chart, set either for your birthplace or the place you happen to be located at the time.

For as much as the Solar Return tells us something about our creative journey over the course of one year and the Lunar Return something about the emotional dynamics of the coming month, so we can apply the same idea to the other planets.

This is most feasible with the faster-moving personal planets, Mercury, Venus and Mars. This webinar will introduce the Return Charts of Mercury, Venus and Mars as illuminating and useful additions to our forecasting toolkit.

Level: Intermediate.

Jupiter in Myth and Psyche – Exuberance Unbound

with Jason Holley

The philosophers taught us to see one dimension of Jupiter/Zeus: ruler of the gods, aligned to truth, law, philosophy, vision, prosperity, a good measure of luck.  This Jupiter is one part of the planetary story.  
 
But the bards sang to us of another Zeus: shapeshifting, polymorphous, polyamorous, given to countless affairs.  And the forms taken were many and surprising — swan, bull, cuckoo, eagle, whirlwind, lesbian lover and more.  The progeny were likewise multiple: Apollo and Artemis, Athena, Mercury, Dionysos, Castor and Pollux, Helen and Clytemnestra, Hercules, the Muses; some even gestated in his own loins.  It seems that whatever Jupiter touches multiplies, expands, diversifies, in ways unintended and unintendable. 
 
In one reading the logic of Jupiter’s encounters seems all too familiar: to rule from the top, and to compensate for the resultant disconnection from life by pillaging and appropriating the eros of what is relegated below.  But if we loosen the symbol from the limitations of Greco-Roman consciousness, we discover that it also calls forth a life-enhancing exuberance: a wildly queer and kaleidoscopic consciousness that cannot be confined to the existent order of things and endlessly remakes it and is remade by it.  When this Jupiter arrives we feel the sensuous breeze of the whirlwind, smell the sweet breath of Europa’s bull, thrill to the anticipation when our eagle eyes spot some irresistible opportunity.   
 
Our live webinar will convene below a sky where Jupiter has just conjoined Uranus: an apt moment for fresh imaginings and especially for unburying (Uranus in Taurus) forgotten and less-authorized dimensions of Jupiter apropos to the new horizons the conjunction often brings.
