2023 Sensitive Degrees Webinar.
This year should be a recovery year, especially in the spring, when instead of the economy going up and down like the next few months, it should start to stabilize but there will be many other astrological signatures that will bring new challenges in addition to sewing up the old ones.
Some (but not all) planetary signatures we will cover are as follows:
- Brief recap of 2022 as it leads into 2023.
- Ingresses: When each planet changes sign. This year in addition to the usual Sun through Mars ingresses there are: Jupiter entering sidereal Aries/tropical Taurus; Saturn entering sidereal Aquarius/tropical Pisces; Neptune entering sidereal Pisces; Pluto entering tropical Aquarius briefly; Nodes entering sidereal Pisces-Virgo; tropical Aries-Libra.
- Lunations (New and Full Moons)
- Four eclipses: April 19 (solar); May 5 (lunar); October 14 (solar); October 28 (lunar).
- Planetary Stations and Annual retrograde cycles of Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. This year Mars stations direct on January 12 but stays in tropical Gemini from August 20, 2022 to March 25, 2023. Mars stays in sidereal Taurus and Gemini from August 10, 2022 to May 10, 2023. Mars retrograde arc (shadow) from September 3, 2022 – March 16, 2023. Venus retrograde from July 22-September 3.

Presented on Thursday January 26-Sunday January 29, 2023.
My lecture When Rahu Rules: An In-depth look at Ardra, Svati, and Shatabhisa. We’ll take a deep dive into the Moon’s placement in the three Rahu-ruled Nakshatras as we explore their mythology, stars, and temperament. Most importantly, we will see how Rahu’s intensity, power, and transformative ability uniquely affect these lunar mansions. The focus will also be on the Nakshatras’ placements in Gemini (Ardra), Libra (Svati), and Aquarius (Shatabhisa).
Virtual Presentation for SMARRT. NCGR Ann Arbor Michigan Chapter. Most people have heard about the 18-year Saros eclipse cycle and the 19-year Metonic lunation cycle, but do not fully understand their effect in your personal chart and the world.

Fundamentals of Indian Astrology (Jyotisa). Virtual Classes.
This series of classes is NOT a crash course even though when you complete it you will have rudimentary tools with which to start analyzing the chart. We will cover the basic level of Jyotisa, or Vedic Astrology. This incorporates basic tools for beginning chart interpretation and forecasting including history, some Sanskrit meanings and pronunciation of concepts, and supplemental reading material and videos, and discussion group in between classes. Everyone will receive recordings and power point presentation the next day, whether you attend live or not. If you sign up for the entire series you will thoroughly learn Jyotisa and even some Sanskrit.
After taking Level One and Level Two you will be prepared to take the test for Certification Level I of ACVA (American College of Vedic Astrology), if you choose. There will be opportunities to read supplemental material, do assignments, and review what we learned, but that is up to you. A book list will be provided once you register.
