April meeting will be held the 4th Sunday – April 22
Speaker – Thaddeus Fenner
The Four Pillars of Destiny or Ba Zi (aka Tzu Ping astrology) is the natural extension of the interface between the Chinese concept of cosmic energy or “heaven” (expressed as “stems,” the yin and yang of the 5 elements) and the Earthly Branches, commonly known as the Chinese Animal Signs. The Four Pillars are the branches and stems of the hour, day, month and year that a person is born. In China, the Ba Zi chart is traditionally viewed alongside the Zi Wei Dou Shu chart or ”
Purple Rose Calculation” but we can do the same here in the west with Four Pillar analysis alongside traditional western charts. Four Pillar analysis can, in simple terms, tell us the essential nature of a person as well as their family and career prospects. We can also use it to forecast into the future important turning points in a person’s life.
Learning the Four Pillar basics is a very small investment that will undoubtedly aid the western astrologer in better understanding clients’ charts.

March Meeting
Discussion: Chart Shapes and Planetary Pairs
Facilitated by Sandra Williams
Bring your chart and join the discussion about the Chart Shapes as identified and explained by Marc Edmond Jones: what they are, what they mean, how to figure out the “iffy” ones, and some ideas to help you identify your own. We’ll also look at Jones’ four Planetary Pairs and what they tell about a person. This is not a lecture, but an open discussion.
Remember that Daylight Savings time starts that Sunday, March 11.

Reading Between the Signs
by John Cappello, Psychic Medium
John’s intriguing presentation will focus on psychic abilities and astrology. He will discuss the unique gifts of each sign and planetary aspects that enhance psychic energy. Reading an astrological chart and sensing the influence of the aspects within it enables the astrologer to determine the psychic perspective of the native. Other factors regarding planetary placements in the houses will be explored with regard to the ability to capture information from “beyond the physical.”

1:15p-3:30p – Stacy’s Furniture – Grapevine, TX
THE END OF THE WORLD IS NEAR! (AGAIN)
After an enormously eventful year, 2011, we can’t help but wonder what 2012 will be like. What do scientists say about the Mayan calendar, (which some people think of as a prediction of the end of the world on December 21, 2012) and what does astrology indicate about the same time period? We will explore two rays of hope in the coming astrological line up for 2012.
After a look at what is happening for ASNT in 2012 and what is in store for the royal couple that married this year, Kate and William, we get to the big questions: who will win the Presidential election, and what will happen to our gridlocked Congress as two ideologies clash?
Donna will finish in time to open the floor to a brief discussion of the points raised.
