Horary, Step by Step
Sunday September 6, 2026 11:00am - 12:15pm CDT
The tradition of horary astrology is vast, and it can be extremely overwhelming to learn. There are so many "rules" to remember! In this lecture I present a system I developed for approaching a horary chart in an organized manner, to avoid overwhelm and ensure that nothing is missed. This is appropriate for learners familiar with astrological basics, but who may find themselves confused by the multitudinous information available about horary.

Drawing Down the Moon: Eclipse Prediction & Astrology’s Lost Histories
Sunday September 6, 2026 2:30pm - 3:45pm CDT
Aglaonice of Thessaly, a female astrologer active sometime between the 5th and 1st century BCE, was famed for “drawing down the Moon”—likely a mastery of eclipse prediction. Her story reflects how astrological knowledge from women and other historically marginalized figures has been lost or obscured. This talk explores the mechanics of lunar eclipses, the contributions of overlooked astrologers, and how eclipse cycles shaped ancient predictive traditions.
