SuS with Blaze-Maximus — The Aries Ingress of the Year 2025
Join us on Thursday, March 20th, 2025 at 7 PM Eastern Time (ET) for Blaze Maximus’s next talk, “The Aries Ingress of 2025!”
Talk Description
To interpret the events of the world, natural disaster, economics, and politics, astrologers of the Medieval Islamicate world would cast a horoscope every year the Sun enters 0º Aries. Following the Persian holiday Nowruz, the Spring Equinox was regarded as a renewal for the world as the world came alive, the length of days started to increase, and generation would be renewed in plants, animals, and humans alike. In this talk, we will recreate the same methods employed by astrologers like Masha’allah ibn Athari and Abu Ma’shar to make predictions for what 2025 has in store for the world.

SuS with Cristina Rivera — Aimless: Approaching the Tools of Peregrine Planets
Join us on Thursday, January 30th, 2025 at 8 PM Eastern Time (ET) for Cristina Rivera’s next talk: “Aimless: Approaching the Tools of Peregrine Planets!”
Talk Description
Being classified as “aimless” doesn’t sound like an asset. Peregrine planets are often described as having “no particular strength or weakness,” a “drifter” at a loss to identify their role or their aim. Not an endorsement! Yet all of the planetary placements have their lessons and offer tools whether in the natal chart or by transit. As astrologers, we’re tasked with supporting others in locating how to work with the energy of a placement whether or not that’s an easy life assignment.
Aimless is about using the visual landscape of Tarot to explore the purpose of peregrine placements. Via the 2025 Mars Rx in Leo (a peregrine Mars), we’ll investigate a process for clarifying how to think about / discuss the 33 peregrine placements in the zodiac.
