Hello!

Aquarius Severn is primarily an Astrological Society, with interests in related Aquarian Age subjects.

Apart from regular talks, we run astrology classes at different levels, twice-yearly workshops with national speakers, an annual summer solstice field trip and a celebratory meal in the depths of Winter.

Isbourne Holistic Centre
All evening talks take place on Thursday evenings, 8-10pm at 2 Wolseley Terrace, Oriel Road and cost £6.00, or only £4.00 for members. Refreshments are available. For parking information see our Location page. The venue is close to the bus stops at The Promenade.
Membership costs £15 per year, and allows access to our library of books & magazines.

Aquarius Severn is an open and friendly group - our talks attract people of all ages, and visitors are always welcome.

Further down this page you can see our current programme of talks, classes for beginners and astrology workshops. You can also sign up to our talk reminder service (see right) and receive our quarterly programme by email.
Parking: There is some street parking in nearby Vittoria Walk, and behind Isbourne at the back of the Town Hall and around The Queens Hotel.

Current Programme

Thu 5th. August 2010, 8-10pm:
Nine Star Ki

Picture
This is a system of astrology based on an ancient book called the ‘I Ching’ which sees our world in terms of 9 year cycles and the interplay of yin and yang. We each have a birth number, from 1-9, depending on our year of birth. Each number corresponds to a different element in the ‘5 transformations of energy’ (fire
soil, metal, tree, and water), each with its own characteristics. We also each go through a different ‘house’ each year (from 1-9), influencing the things we do - some years being better for different activities than others. John will help us find out our own birth numbers, current 'house', and the characteristics associated with each one.

John Davis is a macrobiotic counsellor and teacher based in Gloucestershire.
During the last 30 years he has been interested in diet and its effects. He attended the Kushi Institute, USA to study the macrobiotic approach to healing (cooking, diagnosis, shiatsu, qi-gong, do-in). As a result of this he has developed an interest in ‘9 star ki’ astrology. He previously lived and worked in different parts of the UK and Europe as an English language teacher.

Thu 19th. August 2010, 8-10pm:
The Dance of Venus & Mars

Picture
With Venus and Mars within a day of exact conjunction - part of a ten week dalliance these planets make this year, dancing low together in the evening sky - we will examine the relationship of these two archetypal forces. Deeply linked in mythology, these are aspects of female and male, co-operation and competition, languor and action, and pleasure.

How can we utilise this time to understand the astrological archetypes they represent ? As characters in your birth chart : do they get on, fight or are just not on speaking terms ? Join us to explore how we can cultivate the Venus-Mars relationship within for a better understanding of our outer world.

Thu 2nd Sep 2010, 8-10pm:
Communicating with your Chakras

Picture
The mysterious Chakras, subtle, glowing energy pools aligned up our spines, are affected by, and affect, our physical, emotional and spiritual life.  Mary Horsley reveals how the Chakras might communicate their state of balance, and various methods you can use to adjust them, including simple yoga postures.  (She won’t be asking you to tie yourself in knots or stand on your head!).

Her unique approach includes information on the so-called minor chakras of the meridian system.  Loose comfortable clothing is suggested if you want to try the postures out.

Mary is author of Enneagram for the Spirit and The Chakra Workout, and a member of Aquarius Severn. www.maryhorsley.co.uk.

The booking form will be available to download in August, but for now, please register your interest by emailing graham@aquariussevern.com.

Astrology is a fascinating subject that embraces psychology, mythology, relationships and current affairs. Once you are familiar with its language of symbols you will have a richer, deeper understanding of your own life and the life around you.


Library

Our library (available to members only) is growing, after we received a large donation of books recently, and we now have two library cupboards at 2 Wolseley Terrace. Members of Aquarius Severn can borrow books displayed at our talks and workshops, as well now as those we share with the Arcturus Rising group in Bristol, run by Chris Mitchell.
