Change In January Schedule

Sadly, Jessica Adams won't be coming to Oxford in January. We hope she'll be able to come later in the year.

So the January meeting will just be a planning meeting for the rest of the year.

Don't forget to circle February 15 for Bernadette Brady's one-day workshop though.

Christmas Astro-gig

Next meeting is on December 18 at the North Oxford Association. We start at 7.3O and finish around 1O.
We will be playing "Guess Whose Chart", so bring along a few of your own mystery charts. They need to belong to someone reasonably well known. We put them up on the projector and have a go at guessing. First prize is a mince pie.
See you there.

The Solar Returns Workshop

Our first one-day event, a workshop on the Solar Return or birthday chart, was a great success.

Guest speaker Lynn Bell, doyenne of psychological astrology, queen of the solar return and all-round clever woman was really wonderful. She managed to make us laugh, reel in astonishment, open our minds and think again.

The participants were also splendid: good questions were asked, attention was paid and some excellent comments were made.

Trinity College is always gorgeous, of course, and the Sutro Room itself has a particular atmosphere: studious yet theatrical.

The group would like to thank everyone who came – near and far - for making the day go so well.

To give you a flavour of the day here is a short clip of Lynn Bell speaking about astrological magic and the solar returns of 2013. 

This Weekend

Just to remind you that the Solar Returns Seminar with Lynn Bell is this Saturday, November 9. Much excitement here.

•If you are coming by car, the Park and Ride in Oxford is good and drops you minutes from Trinity College.
•If you're coming by bus, take it all the way to the terminus at Gloucester Green, again minutes from the college.
•If you are coming by train, it's a 10 minute walk.

There will be tickets at the door if you haven't had a chance to buy one.

Lunch will be from 1-2pm.

Don't forget to bring your charts and sharpen your wits as well as your pencils.

Solar Returns with Lynn Bell

One-day seminar the Sutro Room, Trinity College, Oxford

Lynn Bell's visit to Oxford is almost upon us. We are polishing the projector, sorting out the teacups and looking at our own Solar Return charts.

She'll be demonstrating how to read your birthday chart for the year ahead. Lynn is easily one of the most engaging and inspiring astrologers we know, so don't miss it. Bring your charts and your questions.

The session lasts from 9.30 to 4.30 with a break for lunch. Morning coffee and afternoon tea will be provided.

Talking About Pluto

Barry Goddard twinkling

That was fun.

Barry Goddard led an insight-filled, revelatory and well-attended meeting at the North Oxford Association on Wednesday. Regulars and newbies chipped in with their own experiences of Pluto transits. Barry took us through a fascinating journey into the geography of the underworld and the potential for self-transformation that Pluto transits offer.

See you next time.

Telling the truth about Pluto

Discussing Persephone.

The Dark Lord in Oxford on the 16th

Just to remind you that Dharmaruci from Astrotabletalk will be invoking Pluto here in Oxford next Wednesday.

It's at the North Oxford Association and starts at 7.30 on the 16th. Everyone's welcome. It's £4 on the door. I think there'll be tea... but we made need something a bit harder in the circs....
