Vice –Chair Report

Hello members,

You will notice our title has changed from

President to Chairperson to align with the new

Department of Commerce guidelines.

Maybe this is indicative of changes many of us

are undergoing with the planet of change

Uranus now moving steadily forward in

Taurus.

Those of us who have earth in our charts are prepared to move in new

directions.I have reduced my lecturing to part time and am investigating

different avenues in line with this. I recall the midlife transit of Uranus

reflecting chaos in my life so I am now better prepared to be flexible!

In addition to the great line up of speakers this year we have also now added

Peter Burns who will speak on Solar transits on August 4th. Peter previously

lived in Perth so many of you may know him. As he now lives in Victoria we

will use an online platform for this talk.

Currently NSW are trialing these and the “Go to Meetings” and “Zoom”

are two to enable speakers around Australia to literally come into our

meeting space.

Our last speaker was our wonderful Jeannette Lewis Hill who as always

presented another very well researched talk; this time on “The Twelve Tribes”

and introducing us to their method of chanting in order to raise the energy in

the known world and therefore keeping the land peaceful. Each tribe would

take on this very important task for one month at a time chanting in turn for

24 hours of every day.

It soon became apparent that the number twelve was pivotal in the Ancient

World and is still very much with us today in the form of the Sacred Geometry

and mathematics of our beautiful soaring cathedrals as yet proudly standing.

We meandered over Ley Lines and high mountain ranges creating energy and

learnt of some interesting ancient places and artifacts discovered along their

paths, not least of all “the Dead Sea Scrolls”.

Best wishes and endurance for those affected by the ever closer Pluto and

Saturn conjunction

Kind regards

Margie Crocker

... NEXT EVENT ...

Sunday, 12th May 2019

2 pm to 4 pm

@ South Perth Learning

Centre

Karmic Astrologer Rick Boyd presents. . .

… a very different view on Astrology by famous American clairvoyant Edgar Cyce, known as the

Sleeping Prophet and Father of Holistic Medicine.

In a sleeping trance state, Cayce gave over 18,000

readings on a range of esoteric subjects including

health, reincarnation, Atlantis, and more than 1500

on Astrology. However, you will find that the

astrological perspectives given to Cayce in trance

were quite unusual.

Cayce considered that a person’s current life purpose

was explained by the “soujourns” or past lives spent

at differing dimentional vibrations represented by

the planets in their horoscope.

Rick will explain what plentary energies in your horoscope mean for your current life according to

Cayce’s teachings, along with other astrological revelations given to Cayce in trance such as the

birth chart of Jesus Christ.

... JUNE EVENT ...

Sunday, 23rd June 2019 @ SPLC

We are not totally sure of the time yet

- but it will be a 4-hour [maybe 5] presentation. Definite time to be advised in the June MM.

Joy Usher … Experiencing Life Through the Four Angles

Meeting the Cross of Matter and understanding its significance – the Ascendant and Descendant,

the Midheaven and the opposite point of the nadir – is one of the most exciting experiences for any

young astrologer starting out on their journey of knowledge. Luckily, the ancients felt exactly the

same way.

Marcus Manilius wrote in the first century C.E.:

“Come now, prepare an attentive mind for learning the cardinal points: four in all, they have

positions in the firmament permanently fixed and receive in succession the speeding signs.”

This workshop revisits each of the four angles and looks at their role as the ‘skeleton of the chart’.

Don’t be fooled by the simplicity of the title, or by the misguided belief that you know everything

there is to know about the angles.

“These points are charged with exceptional powers, and the influence they exert on fate is the

greatest known to our science, because the celestial circle is totally held in position by them as by

eternal supports.”

If Manilius places so much importance on these four ‘power points’, then maybe we need to look a

little closer at the pillars of the four quadrants, and examine in greater depth the impact for each of

the planets when they rule the Cross of Matter in any given chart.

Joy says that in the angles workshop we can play with several levels depending on the audience's

experiences, skills and expectations on the day. It's a fun workshop and should cater to most

astrologers from beginner to advanced. … Joy

- Joy Usher has been a frequent visitor to the West in recent years, often

with her colleague Mari Garcia. [Mari will be coming west in 2020] The pair

are co-principals of the highly esteemed AstroMundi School of Astrology in

Adelaide which has a long history of excellence in traditional astrology.

Joy is a diligent researcher and gifted teacher and writer. The presentation on

angles is an extended version of one of AstroMundi’s master classes – which are also online and

available to all. [There is a fee.]

Email: [email protected] if you wish to contact Joy directly.
