Presented February 2010 Saturday February 13, 2010 Noon, EST Christina Collins "Compatibility" 90 minutes - Matching two or more charts for potentially harmonious connections (or disconnects) between two or more individuals. Christina will illustrate the concepts of compatibility in: Love / Marriage relationships Family relationships Business relationships Initially, we identity and investigate each person’s natal horoscope regarding their individual tendencies and how they personally relate regarding relationship(s). Then, we compare the horoscopes to evaluate if it is a Love connection, a Marriage connection (or both). For business the parameters are similar, yet more emphasis on the houses of business, and the Kuta Agreements focus on wealth of assets and property rather than on growth of family or children. The Navamsa is considered in both, while in Marriage we work with the Saptamsa (children) and in Business comparing, we work more with the Dashamsa – the 7th and 10th harmonic charts. $49.95

Presented January 2010 Saturday January 9, 2010 Noon, EST Sat Siri Khalsa "What are Rasi Dristis and Why are They Important?" 120 minutes - This webinar will explain the significance, power, and pervading presence of the aspects from sign to sign in the zodiac. Using horoscopes of famous people as well as looking at current transits and the upcoming Kumbha Mela, the celebration of Jupiter in Aquarius, we will come to a deeper understanding of this most important of dristis, or visions, for that is what the Sanskrit word for aspect implies. If they are not important, why does Parashara teach about sign aspects even before mentioning planetary aspects? We will see the geometry that accounts for them and the spiritual principles that explain them. The rasi dristis link the actual natural realities of our lives, while the graha dristis show the things we only desire and may or may not obtain. By studying the rasi dristis, we will know better how to take advantage of their power in our own charts. Offered by Sat Siri Khalsa Vice President, Council of Vedic Astrologers and a teacher in the Jaimini Scholars Program directed by Pandit Sanjay Rath. $49.95

Presented December 2009 Saturday December 12, 2009 Noon, EST Dennis Flaherty "Mars: Self Determinism in the Cult of Speed" 90 minutes - Dressed in red, with a red body, who has four arms, the son of the earth, whose vehicle is a ram, who carries a trident, a spear and a mace in his hands, with a coral crest jewel on his head, making the gesture that gives boons, may divine Mars ever grant us grace.” So, goes the invocation to Mars, whom many astrologers consider to be one of the greater malefic grahas, due to the heraldry of weapons in his capable hands. Therefore, Mars must be examined carefully for his malfeasance, and his magnificence, for when he brings his results he brings them suddenly. Mars hands are quicker than our eyes as his shock and awe are worshipped in the cult of speed. When malefic, Mars and his moons bring fear and panic, conflict and war. The sudden rise and wealth of the international arms and finance industries and the record profits reaped based on based on threats to sovereign and financial security, or whatever fear-of-the-day security threat is in vogue! When malefic, Mars must act suddenly to drive the herd mentality into the chosen direction to reap the profit and control. From the rush to war, the quick-fix to the fast-buck you will see his malefic effects in action from the whirl of weaponry he holds in his three hands. Thankfully, Mars fourth and final hand offers a benefic boon, the boon of self determinism, the free will to chart our own destiny. For certain charts, and at certain times, and in certain planetary combinations Mars becomes a highly benefic planets, who energy and enthusiasm can suddenly change the course of events for the better. When benefic, he represents the valor of all true spiritual warriors, who lead the struggle against fear and ignorance,as Arjuna in the Gita. This class will teach you quickly grasp which hand of Mars you are dealing with to avoid the blows and accept the boons. You must do so quickly to survive in the cult of speed. $49.95
