If this is the very first book of Astrology you pick up, you can consider yourself lucky indeed. Seriously, if you’ve been avoiding Astrology the same way you avoided calculus (like the plague) this may be the book for you!

IVO DOMINGUEZ JR Ivo is probably the hardest working Pagan teacher I know. He goes to more festivals and does more workshops than practically anybody. He’s everywhere, and for good reason, he’s a a great teacher and an even better person. And there’s also that New Alexandrian Library project he’s a major part of. Ivo is amazing.

A song for our times by Gwendolyn Reece.
Lyrics
Battle Hymn of the Resistance
When we rise up and claim our power
The Good, it cannot fall.
We take up the shield of service
To defend the rights of all.
[Chorus]
We hear the call of duty.We heed the Spirit’s Light.
We stand firm in compassion,
And work to set things right.
We defend the Constitution,
Rule of Law across the land.
When blind Justice, She is threatened
We will not let it stand.
[Chorus]
We hear the call of duty.We heed the Spirit’s Light.
We stand firm in compassion,
And work to set things right.
We tend the Hearth of Kindness,
Soul of Democracy.
Welcome tired, poor, huddled masses
Yearning to breathe free.
[Chorus]
We hear the call of duty.We heed the Spirit’s Light.
We stand firm in compassion,
And work to set things right.
Our Healer’s Cup we offer
To all souls who have need.
We work to heal our nation
Of hatred and of greed.
[Chorus]
We hear the call of duty.We heed the Spirit’s Light.
We stand firm in compassion,
And work to set things right.
Our visionary garden blooms
With dreams we bring to birth,
Of what society can be
If we dare to love the Earth.
[Chorus]
We hear the call of duty.We heed the Spirit’s Light.
We stand firm in compassion,
And work to set things right.
So rise up and claim your power
Together we will grow.
See America as we should be
And we will make it so.
[Chorus]
We hear the call of duty.We heed the Spirit’s Light.
We stand firm in compassion,
and will make things right.

Help isn’t always helpful is a lesson I learned from Annie Lomax of blessed memory back in the 70s when she was training me to work on a hotline. Sometimes, help is offered as a sedative when someone else is having strong emotions that make you uncom…

The Journey from Hod to Netzach: or how I came to Love the Tower Card, by Karen Bruhin
“There is a lot that happens magically when we truly initiate from one level of our practice to another. Our mundane lives get shaken up and stirred while we get more clarity in our actual spiritual/magickal practices, and the dance goes back and forth between the two. In this class we will take on quick over view of the Qabalistic spheres of Hod (Splendor), Netzach (Victory), the path between them (27), and the Tower card from the tarot, and how they relate to initiation.”
Karen Bruhin is a 3rd degree initiate within the Assembly of the Sacred Wheel (ASW),www.sacredwheel.org
) a Wiccan syncretic tradition. She is the High Priestess of Tenders of the Earth Temple (https://www.tet-asw.org/
) founded in 2011 and which based in NW Philadelphia. A practitioner of a variety of esoteric disciplines, Karen has been active in Wicca and the local Pagan community for the past 18 years. Additionally, Karen is the Captain of the Gryphons, a magical order within the ASW that is charged with the magical protection of the ASW. She offers ongoing classes through Mt. Airy Learning Tree and through the coven as well as co-coordinator for ritual at 2017 Philadelphia Pagan Pride Day. She has previously taught at Spring Magick, Autumn Magick, Philadelphia Pagan Pride and Free Spirit Gathering.

It seems there’s always some astronomer or scientist debunking astrology without understanding the very basic premise of astrology.
