Deep Mercury: Hermes and the Quickening of Destinies
Sunday 13th October 2019 - 15.30-18.00 BST

Descents, retrievals, crossings, encounters – the mythology of Mercury is profoundly psychological.  Yet astrology often forgets Mercury’s depth, despite his mastery of what the ancients called Kairos: the ‘just right’ moment where old threads of lives unravel and new ones enter the loom. A soul-quickener, when Mercury arrives on the scene, in myth and in our charts, stuck places unstick, silenced parts start speaking, lost items return. Mercury loosens us up, slips past defenses, opens roads to uncharted psychic territory. 

In this webinar, through stories drawn from ancient myth and modern psychotherapy, we’ll explore the surprisingly profound effects Mercury subtly facilitates natally and through visitations by transit, progression, and synastry. As well, we will explore the special twilight consciousness held by Mercury as a follower of the sects of both Night and Day, and how we astrologers – held by the ancients as sons and daughters of Mercury – may make use of the Mercurial mode of consciousness to bridge the psychologies of Night and Day, inviting Eros whilst embracing Necessity.

Angels and Demons - The Astrology of Obsession
Sunday 20th October 2019 - 15.30-18.00 BST

What signifies obsession in a chart? What tips an idea, a desire or impulse over into the dangerous realms of obsession? Today we’ll be exploring the nature of obsession, from obsessive–compulsive disorder, obsessive loves and desires to the role of obsession in creativity. Are we possessed by angels or demons when we enter the realm of obsession, or perhaps a mixture of both? Prepare to enter the underworld of duende and dark emotions.

Planets in Blue: The Uses of Melancholy
Sunday 3rd November 2019 - 15.30-18.00 GMT


Every so often our experience of a planet goes ‘off,’ as if a light has been dimmed and we see life through a blue filter. Venus gets the blues when a relationship dies, the Moon when it loses its familiar comforts. These times take us inward into night consciousness, and often bring an inclination to moodiness and gloom. The party girl loses her fizz, the wild boy loses his smile. If this kind of inner work has not been done before, Saturn transits can make it more pressing, especially now as Saturn comes into close contact with Pluto. While it may not be comfortable at first, the melancholy position has long been considered the via regia for soul making in archetypal psychology. As astrologers, the ability to walk our clients through the timing of a ‘blue period’ can be a great gift.

Archetypal Polarities 1: Aries - Libra

Sunday 10th November 2019 - 15.30-18.00 GMT

The zodiac contain 6 natural polarities. These polarities depict archetypal configurations between two signs which symbolize two patterns of consciousness. Each sign contains its own energy as well as the energy of its opposite, and learning to see in terms of polarity helps with understanding both the shadows and potential gifts of each sign.

Session I: Aries-Libra
Essential themes in the Aries-Libra dance: I and Thou consciousness; separateness and togetherness; the sword of discrimination and the fine blade of value; reflection and mirroring.

(This webinar is the 1st in a series of 6 which will explore C.G. Jung’s idea of the tension of opposites and James Hillman’s idea of the union of sames in order to explore the polarity dynamic of each zodiac pair and their psychological meaning.  Each session will focus on the mythology and psychology of a sign along with its polarity partner so to explore the archetypal themes and psychology of each pair. Parts 2-6 will follow over the next few terms)

Saturn and the Outer Planets - Encountering Larger Realities
Sunday 17th November 2019 - 15.30-18.00 GMT

One of Saturn's essential archetypal roles in our lives (and in our charts) is to set limits. Traditional astrology tells us that Saturn rules over prisons. When imposed on us from the outside world, limits can often feel confining and oppressive - like a prison. Paradoxically, limits can feel liberating - like knowing when enough is enough, saying "no," setting a boundary. Navigating between inner and outer realities via Saturn becomes increasingly challenging (and increasingly important) when Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto engage with Saturn. Limits and boundaries mingle and merge with larger realities like revolution and eternity. New possibilities and potentials emerge. This webinar explores the rather complex relationship between Saturn and the outer planets, individually and collectively. 


Darby Costello
Earth: Our Home
Sunday 8th December 2019 - 15.30-18.00 GMT

Nearly 50 years ago we saw our home planet from space for the first time and this has powerfully influenced our collective perceptions about the Earth.  In the last few years we have become aware that this Earth is more fragile and vulnerable that we ever imagined it to be.  And yet our astrological element Earth has always been associated with stability and practicality.  We want to be ‘grounded;’ and we like people ‘down to earth.’   Uranus has now gone into Taurus, perhaps awakening us to new perceptions of this element.  In this webinar we shall explore the astrological Earth through signs, planets and houses.

Here is my favorite book on astrology and a "must" for anyone interested in learning more: Secrets from a Stargazer's Notebook: Making Astrology Work for You and here's a guide to the best books available this month. This column is (c) 2019 MADAM LICHTENSTEIN, LLC., All Rights Reserved. For Entertainment Purposes Only. Madam Lichtenstein is the author of the best selling astrology book “HerScopes ” now in its 10th printing and available as an eBook

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
As you work yourself at the gym, will there be someone nearby who lifts the weight of your heart? Keep a watchful eye out for opportunities, Aries. You are full of energy. Now try to apply that to areas of your life that reduces stress, brings you more joy and makes your life happier in general. Make wellness as a mission. Happy results will follow.

TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
Taureans are in their entertaining element as fun events seem to be added every day to your social calendar. You have ample energy to handle more festivities than usual. Tap into your creativity and see how you can add a bit of spice to any party or gathering. And who knows what romantic brew is being served at the open bar? It might be intoxicating.

GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
Family may give you a greater sense of security and stability, as well as lead you to a new way of thinking regarding love and commitment. Or maybe not, Gemini. The thing here is that you should take some (but not all) advice from others now and apply it carefully to whatever area of your life needs a balm. But you have good common sense too. Consider and balance.

CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
Cancers know exactly what to say to handle any tense situation - when to ramp it up and when to sugarcoat your words to calm others down. Take it on the road and see what the beneficial effects are. Who knows? Somewhere, somehow, you may find yourself in a position of power and authority.Today the neighborhood. Tomorrow the world.

LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Money figures prominently in your actions this week, Leo. But you might also allow your emotions to take over and lead you to risky investments. Take a breath and see if you can see the lay of your fiscal land in a dispassionate way. Ask advice from trustworthy sources, do a bit of homework and make your carefully crafted move. Cha-ching!

VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Virgos seek the center of attention and can make a big splash in any influential group. You have ample charisma and can make a great first impression with very little effort. It will all seem so easy! So gather your ideas and see what the overall reaction is by the movers and shakers. Maybe the ground will move for you. Then clear the field and move ahead.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Libras are especially intuitive now and their added ESP can take them to new and unexplored areas where opportunities hide. So try to carefully listen to your inner voice to see if you can tell what will work best for you in the long term. There are those who are working in the background for your benefit. Thank these guardian angels when you locate them.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
This is not the time to be solitary, Scorpio. It is time to reach out and make new friends, support old ones and get involved in group activities. You have some great ideas to get people motivated and have the extra energy to plan and launch some fun activities. Those who you touch today will factor prominently in your future plans. So rest tomorrow. Rally today.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
Sagittarians with big plans for themselves can make them even bigger now. Anything you decide to do you can do ... and beautifully. So put some of your long deferred plans in place and take them to the highest heights. Buff up your political acumen and see how far you can climb up the corporate ladder to success. It will be dizzy at the top.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
Not only should you get out and explore the world now, Capricorn, you should also expand your mind. Boundaries, whether physical or mental, cannot contain you. You yearn to realize truth, beauty and feel refreshed. So get out of your regular routine and see what the world has to offer. I sense there will be no going back to the regular hum drum. Hooray!

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
Cool Aquarians may lose their objectivity as the week progresses. You heat up to a rapid boil and your passions elevate to a feisty level. Hold onto your heart and see if the object of your desires feels the same way. If so, go for it. If not, see if there is something you can do to move things along. Or seek greener pastures. There is someone just for you. Now find them.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
Supportive relationships will give you stability and greater confidence. That is why, if you are currently in a partnership, see if it works well for you. If so, try to make it stronger. If not, you may need to make some decisions as to how to go forward. Single Pisces will have greater opportunities to find the right one at the right time. Just be in the right place.

Lucky Numbers for the Week of August 16, 2019

Lottery ads tell us you only need a dollar and a dream. But it is also helpful to have a list of lucky numbers to help spur the good fortune ... or fortunes. So with that in mind, here are some lucky numbers that can be used in any helpful way. I gazed into a pool of water, Nostradamus-like, and contemplated the cosmos. Then I mixed the tarot cards and allowed the spirits to guide me to the cards that represent the lucky numbers for this week. Nothing is guaranteed but who knows ....?

I choose eight numbers because 8 is the number of of wealth.

Here are the lucky numbers for the week of August 16-22, 2019:

4, 12, 19, 20, 35, 56, 59, 72

Horoscope for the Week of August 12, 2019

John lennonEvery single outer planet is retrograde now - Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune and Pluto. Whew! What will we do with all of this ornery and unpredictable activity? Accept the ups and downs of life with grace and diplomacy now. Control what you can control. Then let the rest go.

(John Lennon had Taurus in Uranus)

Madam Lichtenstein is the author of the best selling astrology book “HerScopes ” now in its 10th printing and available as an eBook

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
Your dreams of wealth may have to be postponed, Aries. Promises of easy money may not materialize because they are not based on reality. Some hiccups on the job force you to concentrate more on keeping what you have rather than expanding on what you want. But all is not doom and gloom. Any restful getaway will replenish and recharge. Then wow!

TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
You make a strong first impression that may not be the first impression you want to make. Expect some interesting times, Taurus. Friends may be ditsy, travel may have its problems and what you think is a light flirtation may unexpectedly grab you by the heart. My advice is to hang around home and family. It will ground you so you can forge success later.

GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
Geminis can face some surprises now, especially when they try to balance work responsibilities with certain relationships. Don’t give the gremlins a chance to ruin your party. Keep your good common sense and really listen to the desires of others. Who knows, you could emerge not only more in control but also in the perfect partnership. Whoo hoo!

CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
Any festive gathering will have its unsettling moments. Suddenly you may find that you may not want to be in the social group you are in. No matter, Cancer. You will find a way to get what you want from who you want. But not before you reassess certain relationships. Some may end. Some may be put on hiatus. Some may have a new life. Which is which?

LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Your career not only becomes a source of unexpected expectations, it may actually change course in a dramatic way. That is the joy of life, Leo, even if it feel a bit unsettling. What hard work you did worked before, but it may not work now. Get creative and see what you can do to regain control of who you are and where you sit. It’s musical chair time!

VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Any small family get together may mushroom with relatives far and wide showing up. So plan any home based activity with plenty of extras. Virgos might need to apply some creativity to get out of any hum drum routine. Seek inspiration through travel, even if it brings some unexpected detours. What starts out as a bad decision may soon become genius. Wait.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Love will have a way of surprising you now, Libra. That means that past actions may need to change. Don’t take anyone or anything for granted. Whatever you whisper may soon become a shout so if you have an opinion, think first before you say it. In the end, all will go well as long as you focus on the details and don’t let your imagination wander too much.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
Try to focus more of your attention on money now, Scorpio, because you are tempted to splurge on more than a few trinkets. Will it be worth it? Maybe and maybe not. You are also apt to party hearty and let your artistic vision soar. All of this is great but could put a crimp in your budget eventually. Let the good times roll! But just wait for the bill to come in...

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
You wow the crowds, Sagittarius. What will you do with all of this attention? Use it to cement your future plans as best as you can. Be especially careful about investing since you are tempted to take on more risk than necessary. Read the fine print, ask sage advice and wait a few weeks. Suddenly the fog clears and you will see exactly what works best for you.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
Capricorns would like nothing better than to stay in the background and do their thing quietly and unobtrusively. I recommend this course of action now even though there will be times when you simply can’t avoid the crowds. Do what you can to keep your plans under wraps - waiting for the best time to reveal them. It will come. Just not as fast as you want.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
So much is going on behind the scenes that you might find it better to chill out, meditate and ignore all of the chatty and gossipy voices. Aquarians might find greater success connecting with others on an open and meaningful level. Focus on relationships - whether romantic or platonic. Don’t talk money. Don’t sweat over home issues. Just relax and have fun.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
Pisces may feel that their career is going off course but this will be a temporary issue. In fact, it may be that you are unduly hard on yourself. Yes, you are worthy of success and you do have a fleet of friends ready to help you. All your frustrations will evaporate soon. In the meantime, apply your energies to practical tasks and gain a sense of accomplishment.
