Additionally, the individual rising degree holds symbolic meaning for any life. The ruling planet of the Ascendant, the "chart ruler", is crucial to the understanding the life purpose of any human soul.

Robert talks about the Lunar Nodes on the Cardinal Cross. The North Node at the 0' Aries point will be covered by examining the past, present & future of this degree. The Mars-Saturn conjunction at 8' Leo & the USA Cancer Ingress chart of 2006 will be covered, too. Robert covers the Saturn-Neptune Oppositions, which covers the severe oil and gasoline shortage.

Transits technique is evolving from the fourth dimension of time cycles into the fifth dimension of holographic replication of spatial cycles. The Sun, as the central star of our solar system is the indispensable integrating force for all planetary energies & arbitrates one's fate & free will. Phase angle returns of the Sun & the natal planets provide clients with precise dates for when to align free will with Higher Self & make empowered choices.

The USA progressed Mars in detriment in Libra forms a retrograde station for the first time in our nation's history in July 2006 and approaches an opposition with the USA progressed Venus in detriment in Aries in May 2009. Radical pole shifts in male-female relationships will affect society for several generations. Learn about the changing roles in American culture and more information about Chiron as the ruler of homosexuality.

From Volume IV - Relationship Analysis. Robert will show how the fixed cross is connected to the tripartite concept of love from the Greeks, Eros, Philos & Agape. The techniques of synastry & house overlays will be discussed, as well how to understand the differences between the composite & Davison charts. A preparation worksheet will be provided for synthesizing the myriad of details while preparing for an astrological relationship analysis consultation. Past Life connections involving the IC, South Node & Vertex; analysis relationship moving through time; electing wedding charts; recognizing partners who activate our shadow; using antiscia in synastry; and the prenatal Sun-Venus synodic cycles will be discussed.

A must for all practicing astrologers, this workshop will give you the skills to see the connections between the natal promise and the progressed aspects, and how transit triggers work in actual practice. If you have ever wondered why certain transits and progressions produce a greater effect while others do not, come and learn the techniques to discern this disparity. Progressed lunations and eclipses, progressing the angles, progressed retrogradation and stations, and the power and impact of prolonged stationary aspects will be taught.

Join Robert for a comprehensive overview of astrological reincarnation theory and technique. Learn about your five soul groups as defined by one's pre-natal synodic cycles for the Sun and Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. These recurring cycles form conjunctions in the exact same degrees of the Zodiac on a repeating basis, allowing one to precisely pinpoint when in history the soul has previously incarnated, and how many lifetimes are involved in one's present sequence of karma.

Why do we attract relationships with individuals whose planets form stressful synastry aspects to the most psychologically sensitive points in our natal chart? Can these relationships be seen as agents of transformation? This lecture examines the attraction- friction dynamic found in synastric squares and oppositions; and the difficult reality of living with a partner whose planets activate or produce T-squares, Yods, Midpoints of squares, or create a challenging composite chart.
