Friday September 4, 2026 2:30pm - 3:45pm CDT

Vedic astrologers make a distinction between an individual’s character and the image they project to the world.

We will examine actions that may damage one’s reputation with timing of scandal or smear campaigns. And we will explore the types of clients one can attract for effectively supporting a private practice or retail enterprise.

Healing Astrology’s Great Schism: The Fusion of Tropical and Sidereal in a Co-Participatory Paradigm
Sunday September 6, 2026 9:00am - 10:15am CDT
MI/MI State Room - 6th floor
There is no more fundamental and problematic divide in astrology than the entrenchment of the either/or binary assumption that either a tropical or sidereal zodiac is the true, valid way. While many have learned to consider and integrate both perspectives, this flexible and open-minded approach remains about as popular as an imam at a Southern Baptist church. But as we come to understand astrology as co-arising, astrology becomes much more powerful, accurate, and whole.

Monday September 7, 2026 9:00am - 10:15am CDT
Lakeview Room - 2nd floor
Even before you delve into the natal chart, three key factors in the Pañchāṅga (five key factors of time from the Hindu almanac) behave as real firefighters and help overcome various afflictions such as dagdha rasi, ie, burnt signs. We go into depth of what these factors are and how the planets ruling holds the key to our nourishment, and behave as the Saptamātṛkā, the seven mother goddesses. These highly unique techniques are from the Siddhar tradition of Southern India.

Saturn's Challenging Transits
Monday September 7, 2026 2:30pm - 3:45pm CDT
Sheffield Room - 4th floor
Saturn represents the karma each soul must deal with, and its transits unfold the karmic issues we must face. The challenging transits of Saturn are Sade Sati, Ashtama, and Kantaka Shani. Sade Sati is when Saturn transits the 12th, 1st, and 2nd houses from the Moon. It is a very complex time. Ashtama Shani, Saturn's transit to the 8th house, can cause sudden transformation and health issues. Kantaka Shani, Saturn’s transit to the 4th house, influences home and career.
