Thanks especially to our wonderful speakers, and also to the volunteers who made it possible. Of course everyone who showed up contributed to its success. Without the participation of speakers, volunteers and all our attendees we couldn't have done it!
Thanks to all of you!

The Dark God Meets the Great Awakener: The Cardinal Cross Assembles.
We have incarnated into an extraordinary juncture point in history, foretold by many ancient traditions from the Hopi to the Mayans. The square between Uranus and Pluto, now moving towards exactitude, is the key to understanding the turbulent years between now and 2015. The dynamic between these two formidable planets, which will serve as the backdrop for all other transit activity that takes place, boils down to a confrontation between the force of raw power (Pluto) and the unstoppable trajectory of ideas whose time has come (Uranus). As astrologers decoding the meaning of the period's complex patterns, we can find in this arm of the Cross many clues about the consciousness shifts available now to the world.
In 1973 Jessica Murray graduated from Brown University in psychology and linguistics, then spent a few years touring with a political theatre group. In San Francisco a study of Carl Jung led her to astrology, which she has been practicing for 35 years. Her writings include a monthly Skywatch on her website http://www.mothersky.com/, a political blog, a column for DayKeeper Journal, and articles for The Mountain Astrologer. Her book Soul-Sick Nation (MotherSky Press 2008) is an in-depth analysis of the USA chart.
