FORECASTING VA: 1. Transit-to-natal resonances are very important.


2. These are the big resonances: Composite, Same phase, midpoint-to-midpoint It does not matter whether the charts tropical, sidereal, or any other kind of chart (draconic, etc.) these resonances are resonances that are independent of the zodiac. They are resonances between the planets. There are many ways to describe where an object is in the sky. Astrologers frequently describe objects in the sky by saying what the zodiac position is. The tropical zodiac is NOT the stars. The zodiac is a Great Circle. The sky is flattened. You make 12 sections of 30 degrees. The beginning point (Zero Aries) is the Vernal Equinox. The Vernal Equinox is where the Sun is in the sky when spring begins. The Vernal Equinox is where the ecliptic plane (apparent path of the Sun) and the celestial equator intersect. Our system of astrology is based on abstract geometry. When we say that transiting is Sun is conjunct natal Saturn, what is


happening is this: The Sun - Vernal Equinox angular distance on July 10 is the same as the Saturn - Vernal Eqiunox distance when Chad was born.

Transits are viewed in VA as a kind of resonance. The Sun - Vernal Equinox angle = Saturn - Vernal Equinox angle. The most important resonances are between the same planets in the sky and in the natal chart. Sun-Venus in the sky resonates (has the same angular distance ) as Sun-Venus in the birth chart, it is a HUGE Sun-Venus day for you. What the tropical zodiac is. How sacred geometry creates the seasons and creates the zodiac. Tropical zodiac is based on the seasons. Sacred geometry creates the seasons and the zodiac. Sacred geometry is the cause. Seasons and zodiacs are the results.


----------------------

There are 3 basic resonances: Composite, Same Phase Angle, Midpt-to-Midpt Two planets in the sky to Two planets in the birth chart People have accidents when Mars and Uranus are resonating with each other. Resonance is one of these 3 patterns or in the BiWheel of particular harmonic charts.

------------------

----------------

In modern western astrology we assume and we are convinced that the connecting


point of 2 charts is 0-Aries.

This is just an assumption.

Remember that tropical 0-Aries does NOT

line up the stars together. We are connecting the 2 charts by an abstract point. --------

From the point of VA, the BiWheel shows resonances (connections between the charts) using Zero-Aries as the reference point.

--------

There are connections between planets that do NOT depend on where you spin the outer wheel. In other words, they do not depend on selecting tropical zero-aries. THese are very powerful because they are strictly connections between the planets. An example is if the Sun-Moon angle in


the sky is the same as at birth, then the natal Sun and Moon are highlighted. Somebody is taking an exam to become a professional. if Mer and Sat in the sky have the same angular distance at birth, it is a huge Mer-Sat day. There are 2 kinds of same Mer-Sat angle. 1 is same phase The other is out of phase.

========

Wednesday, May 10, 6th class: 1. art of counseling. supporting the client while not avoiding problem areas.

VA: Confluence or a meeting of 1. VA influences,


2. person's experiences 3. person's decisions VA shows how energy wants to flow. VA shows the potential of the person. Limitation of VA: We cannot see very well the person's experiences. We don't know if they are rich or poor, male or female, etc. We also don't have a good idea of whether they experienced difficult and traumatic experiences. We get hints about this but it's not as clear as what a person's talents are.

---------- Sun-Ura-Nep What did happen for Josephine? There is good and bad in the world. If astrology is "As above, so below" then" there is good and bad in the astrology.


2. forecasting, mini-readings.

----------

Sun-Ura-Nep: Client has not mentioned it or given us a feeling about it. -----------------------

Josephine's confidence in astrology. intelligence can change. Emphasize IQ as if it is an almost fixed quantity that you have. Difficult to change. When people are emotionally calm and not nervous, their ability to understand goes up. When people are independent thinkers and comfortable questioning and figuring things out, ability to understand goes up. Einstein did not show extraordinary intellectual capabilities until after college.

1492


------------------------

Sun-Ura-Nep:

-------------------------

The spiritual forces we attract into our lives. ------------------------- What thought streams, feeling streams, dead people we attract through our behavior. She probably has good guiding people around her. --------

They start having friends who have criminal tendencies, become less productive, do little to contribute, a downward spiral begins and they.

------------ Transits: 4-planet combinations and transits over angular house cusps.

-------------

Saturn by transit: To make decisions. Decide is this beautiful thing really worth the time and


effort. If you go on a trip and need to put everything in a suitcase, what goes in it? (including your thoughts, feelings, relationships). What things that you are magnetized to (drawn to) because of their attractive power do you want to continue to follow and have power over you.

-----------

When I have a Ven-Ura kind of transit. I listen to music part of the day. Usually baroque and Indian. I "rock out" more.

-------------

Ven-Sat: Lead to marriage sometimes? Lead to divorce sometimes?

-------------

Intro: double-check birth info. OK responsible (Sun-Sat) Soothing environment


(does not get feedback but client says true) midpts:

literature, writing, intelligent good in school. Confirms: A: 2nd highest school had. Parents got divorced. Different school, grades went down. DC: Could give some support here! Reframing! 8th h: Want to spread joy (DC: Jup weak) Want to laugh. (DC: Moo-Ven-Plu related to grades going down) A: Wonders what makes people tick. Seeking true love. A: Fairy tale romance. Love without ego. A: That's what I search for.


5: Like to train, discipline yourself. Ascetic. (DC: This is 5th h)

A: I don't understand that part??? LIke to study, is soothing Realizes it is 5th h. Do you work out? A: No, hardly. Overweight, too heavy. Fei: how to respond to client? Change life style. Discipline (DC: not good) Have fun when you exercise (Good) 7: Meditative music. Do yoga? A: yeah to music. Dreams that come true? Read about


dream interpretation. A: I have dream interp books but have not found them to be accurate. 9: Like to join groups and communities, For example: astrology groups, or start your own group and be a leader. A: I want to, some of the things I want to do. Want to form my own reiki circle. That's good (DC: not enough response)

----------------

Monday, May 15, 7th class: Homework: Due next Monday. Forecast for you for June, July, and August. A few paragraphs that summarize important things coming up in those 3 months. And include the time line you are looking at. Transits only using VA concepts.


Best format for the images is PNG. PNG vs. JPEG: JPEG is made for photos (cats, themselves, etc.) What is the difference between an astrology chart wheel and a photo? In a chart wheel you have text and lines. When you have text and lines and you save in JPEG you have to save in high quality JPEG. JPEG has quality levels. PNG does NOT have quality levels because it is always perfect. JPEG is called a LOSSY format. It loses quality. Why use JPEG? JPEG files are very small in size. Interestingly, blurred photos are not usually distinguished from a perfect photo by humans. There are even cases where they look better.


Is it really a big deal to make the files smaller? Yes, it is a very big deal.

----------- Up until about 10 years ago not all browsers and email programs supported PNG format! ------------

You have to use PDF format when sending interpretations with images.

------------- Interpreting transits: Transiting Saturn in Chad's chart. Question: Sat tr Ura in sky. How does it affect a person if it aspects a planet in the chart? ------------------------------- In some forms of astrology, there are necessary evils an these evils are a necessary part of life. By "evil" I mean things that can never be made pleasant and "positive".


The idea that Saturn or square aspects are necessarily not going to be fun. There are burdens in life and there is no way around it.

--------------

Venus-Saturn exact around May 10. Remove the less important things and choose the more important things. You are evaluating your situation in life to focus on the more important things. What is important changes and Saturn helps you re-evaluate what is important NOW. It is not necessarily some deep Freudian or new age cleansing from decades ago that is being cleared up. Sometimes it is and sometimes is is not. ----------------

He decides that he will see this fellow again.


---------------- Our lives are usually built from very small decisions.

How did you meet your husband or wife?

-------------------------

Evidence other than personal experience: Predicting gold prices Predicting accidents Predicting athletic performance

June 8 & Will:

Sat to Venus = 127 deg and 126 deg. Venus to Mercury = 30 deg and 32 deg Sat to Mercury 158 deg and 158 deg

==========

Wednesday, May 17, 8th class:


Forecasting in VA: Last night's office hours:

Interpretation of Moo-Sat-Plu in natal chart. Not able to find when Donald Trump goes off script, but did pick that he would win Republican nomination, etc. To some extent the deprivation and severity is fun. Going out camping, physical training, going off along on a hike, self-reliance and minimalism, fasting is enjoyable. It is difficult to get a right balance where you don't go overboard by being almost masochistic. If a child is abused by the parents, typically the child still loves the parents. Questions from last week: 1. How does the long-lasting Saturn trine Uranus aspect affect someone that has a planet there?


If we use large orbs, it lasts a very long time. If we use small orbs, it lasts a shorter amount of time. Orb for a trine in natal chart in VA is in a natal chart 1 degree to be strong. (In a harmonic chart the orb is 5 deg 20 min) In forecasting (transits and progressions) we have small orbs, generally not over about a degree. 2. Can we see when an important harmonic chart is activated? ------------------

A lof of people in astrology are literary, spiritual, humanitarian, and not technical.

-------------------

3 kinds of 4-planet resonances in forecasting Same phase angle: Ven-Ura = Ven/Ura Midpt to midpt: Sun/Ven opp Sun/Ven Composite : Sun opp Venus (composite)


-------------------

2. Can we see when an important harmonic chart is activated? ------------------- baseball batting research. The evidence so far is that when the harmonic pattern that gives baseball talent is activated, the person's batting performance is excellent. ---------- I have done political forecasts using this same idea.

----------

Monday, May 22

Consultations: goal of consulting. No classes next week.

Consulting: What is a typical goal of a VA consultation:


What if the client does not have clear questions: "Quick readings": "Prepared readings": -------------------- Does a VA consultation tend to focus on a description of the client OR focus on helping the client make decisions. --------------------- What David does: help the client make decisions! ---- Life is a creative process. Some things are destined; there is no choice about it, but most things allow us to choose. We have more choices than we can make. Parallel universes. Myself: music, math, science, psychology, I didn't want to be a laborer.


I decided to pursue psychology, specifically was interested becoming a high school guidance counselor.

Consultant to help develop a plan for what is right for the person, Not just career but life style, habits, activities, relativing to other people.

------------------

Do you play a musical instrument? rather than: Do you think you have musical talent?

-------------------

How much of the astrology do we tell the client? If you mention the astrology, I strongly recommend keeping it very limited.

-------------------

When a person has expertise, the language seems simple. If you do not have expertise, the language is overwhelming. ----------------- The consultation is about the client.

------------------


I go directly to the most powerful energy system and I ask, or I tell, the client about some behavior related to it. -------------------

It's best not to say that you counsel (unless you are a licensed therapist). Proper term is consultant.
