Tuesday September 8, 2026 9:00am - 10:15am CDT

Even gemstones!  Since ancient days, stones have been thought to serve as terrestrial conduits for planetary, stellar, and astrological energies they corresponded with. Using traditional astrology and history, let's find out what gems correspond best with your chart!

Tuesday September 8, 2026 9:00am - 10:15am CDT

The angles are vital in the chart. We call them ‘angles’ but in Islamic era astrology, these weren’t angles but rather the tent poles. At that time and area, many people were living in tents. The tent needed to be sturdy. Likewise, those four angles are the poles that carry one’s being in this material realm. All angles need to be used well in this earth to be balanced and strong.

Wisconsin Room - 6th floor
Andre Barbault, French mundane astrologer, believed the best six years of the 21st century would be from the year 2026 until 2032 when the Saturn-Uranus conjunction occurs at 28 Gemini. How might this revolutionary conjunction build over the forthcoming years and what might it mean in terms of how we mobilize ourselves around the planet, educate our children, collect, store, and distribute data and most importantly, how we think, talk and walk.

Chart Interpretation, Archetypal Narrative, and the Art of Biography in the Age of Uranus in Gemini
Tuesday September 8, 2026 11:00am - 12:15pm CDT
Great American Room - 6th floor
Astrologers retell the life story, weaving events into a cohesive biography with key characters and episodes, shimmering with mythic overtones. We discover the narrative arc that gives each life its meaning and form an aesthetic appraisal of the life and what we’ve made of our natal potentials over time. Astrobiographies of great individuals, mapping triumphs, crises, and turning points, inspire us to perform our own acts of destiny in accord with our astrological script
