The Unique Power of Harmonics: H5, H7 and H9
with Mónica Teixeira
ADVANCED LEVEL
A harmonic chart is a chart derived from the natal chart, showing a particular number in action.
There are as many harmonics charts as there are possible numbers: like different colours of the light spectrum, each harmonic chart represents a separated picture of the birth chart and, a different aspect of the person’s personality. For instance, the fifth harmonic (H5) shows how the essence of number five works in the person’s life. After presenting the technique we will focus on the H5, H7 and H9, with many significant case studies, where we can really see the unique potential of harmonics.

Hitch Your Wagon to a Star: An Introduction to Fixed Star Astrology
with Christian Koenig
Stars are the oldest astrological heritage. Long before there were aspects and houses, astrologer-priests observed the stars, night after night. ‘Astrology’ literally means ‘giving meaning to the star’ (astron = star; logos = meaning). In contemporary astrology, however, the stars play only a minor role – if at all. This lecture wants to bring this heritage back: How can the chart be enriched by the dimension of the starry sky? How can the firmament be connected with the chart? What astrological methods are used? After all, we were not only born with a birth chart, but are also a living part of the entire starry sky.

The Soul of the Night: A Journey to the Starry Sky
with Christian Koenig
Khalil Gibran once said, ‘The sun teaches all living beings the longing for light. But it is the night that raises them to the stars.’ When night falls, the soul awakens. The night is a powerful, magic space that opens when the Sun disappears, when the world becomes silent. Then the starry sky appears. Join Christian on a journey to the current starry sky and listen to some of the old stories associated with the stars.

Always Forward, Never Backward? The Phenomenon of Retrograde Planets
with Christian Koenig
Retrograde planets don’t have a good press in astrology. There are many astrological approaches for interpreting them, often recommending re-activities: re-flecting, re-orienting, re-vising, re-capitulating … If one works with a one-dimensional model of the sky, a retrograde planet actually does only one lap of honour. But that’s an illusion. If we look to the sky, we see that a retrograde planet suddenly takes wings: it rises, it leaves the ecliptic, it draws a loop in the sky. What do these loops mean? How can we interpret them in astrology?

When the Transpersonal Transects the Personal
When the slower-moving planets (Jupiter – Pluto) make dynamic aspects to the Luminaries, Mercury, Venus or Mars, something beyond our personal boundary has been inherited, often through cultural, ancestral or familial systems. This forceful combination is again triggered when the slower-moving planet reaches a critical passage in its cycle, as at this time, both the generic and personal transits re-form the natal complex. My intention for our classes is to sharpen our focus on these potent symbols of our horoscope.
Part 1: Powerful Patterns in the Natal Chart – when outer planets overwhelm
Part 2: Generic and Personal Transits – when the pattern repeats in time
All participants will receive notes about how to prepare for these classes.

Part 1
Powerful Patterns in the Natal Chart – when outer planets overwhelm
with Brian Clark
In Part 1, we will first consider the dynamic combinations of inner and outer planets exploring the potent patterns they suggest. We will prioritize our planetary aspects, looking at what these planetary combinations might suggest from a familial and cultural perspective.
14 August
10–11.30am BST
Part 2
Generic and Personal Transits – when the pattern repeats in time
with Brian Clark
Here in Part 2, we will study the cyclic times when the generic and personal transits re-form this natal aspect. These passages invite us to find deeper meaning and resonance with the part of our life that is imaged by the natal planetary combination.
