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.

Holistic Sound As A Healing Force

Picture
_With James D'Angelo. The universe is rooted in vibration.  All things have their particular frequencies.   Thus stress, illness and disease are mis-tunings of the human instrument. Through resonance and sympathetic vibration these frequencies can be restored. James will demonstrate  how  holistic sound can induce such a transformation. This will be an experiental presentation in which our voices will be the resonators to re-tune our energy systems.

James D’Angelo, PhD has been conducting his courses on sound healing since 1994. A music educator, published composer and all-round musician, James is the author of The Healing Power of the Human Voice and the forthcoming The Sacred Alphabet.

Nasty Benefics … Lovely Malefics

Happy and sad
When one is learning the nuts and bolts of astrology, it's helpful to see things in a black-and-white way, but astrology is much much more subtle and deep.  Modern astrology has largely jettisoned the idea of "malefic" and "benefic" parts of the chart, but we have a deep-rooted sense that some things in the chart are inescapably bad and difficult while others ought inevitably to be positive. Is Jupiter always easy, Saturn hard or Pluto threatening?

This bring-your-chart discussion evening looks at ways to bring the positive to the potentially challenging parts of the birth chart as well as letting us speak up about those things we are told ought to be easy and yet find problematical. (Note : you are very welcome to share personal information about your chart, but no-one is forced to bare their souls -or other parts- in our discussion evenings.)

This week sees a brilliant conjunction of Jupiter and Venus so it should be a benefic time to be furthering our understanding !!


Thu. 15th. March 7:o0 pm on
Social at country pub with view of the Venus Jupiter conjunction

Picture
Mars will also be visible as it trines the conjunction. We will also do a short visualisation to help tune into this very positive alignment.

Please check here nearer the time for details of where we'll be meeting and for directions. 


Thu. 29th March, 6.30pm
Annual General Meeting, 6.30pm

Followed at 8-10pm by
Business Astrology

Picture
Andrea Soole
_At the heart of every business there needs to be clarity and confidence to move with the times.

As Business Astrologers, Andrea Soole and Karen Chiarello operate on the premise that life works in cycles. Like a person, a company has a moment of birth – when legal papers are filed, the first business transaction takes place or the opening of business. The planetary aspects in effect at  that time and the subsequent ones, enable us to gain insight into the underlying trends affecting a company's growth, development and financial success.  Using example charts Andrea and Karen will illustrate how using astrology in business can give businesses the leading edge over competitors and the ability to be prepared for the future.

Andrea Soole has been a professional astrologer since 1984, she studied at the Faculty of Astrological Studies and was trained in Astro*Carto*Graphy by Jim Lewis. In 1984 Andrea joined Equinox Astrology, in 1989 became the senior astrologer at the Astrology Shop and later set up the Australian branch of Equinox.  Andrea has travelled widely promoting astrology through exhibitions, talks and frequent radio and TV appearances. Most recently Andrea founded ChiarelloSoole with Karen, an innovative and ground-breaking astrological business consultancy.

Karen Chiarello is a professional astrologer.  Her speciality is business astrology and Astro*Carto*Graphy.  She works as a business astrologer with her partner Andrea Soole (www.chiarellosoole.com) and as manager of Equinox Astrology (www.equinoxastrology.com).  She also works with individual charts and has lectured and exhibited in Britain, the USA and Australia.

This talk will be preceded by our Annual General Meeting at 6:30pm in the rear room at our usual venue. This is the opportunity for members to be involved in the future direction of the society and when members of the committee are elected. If you would like consider joining the committee, please speak to Graham, Kris or Vicky in advance of the meeting.

Chiron

Picture
Discovered in 1977 (by Charles Kowall, an astronomer with Chiron on his MC), we are probably only just getting to grips with the meaning of this first of the 'centaurs'. Astrologer Mandy Morrell is our guide for an evening with this intriguing planetoid.


Thu. 31st. May, 8-10pm
Behind the Scenes : an Evening in the Twelfth House

Picture
Traditionally the twelfth house has links with misfortune, bondage, persecution, imprisonment, confinement, banishment and exile. Judging by these descriptions, the twelfth house has clearly retained a disquieting reputation, and is without doubt a house full of complexities. However, now in the 21st Century, a question we might ask is: are there better ways in which to understand this much maligned and frequently misunderstood astrological house?

Astrologer Cate Reidy studied at Centre for Transpersonal Astrology and has taught astrology in various settings with an established astrological practice with a particular focus on a therapeutic approach to astrological consultations. Her professional interests in addiction, homelessness, dreams and surgical dreams, all tend to resonate with the concerns of the twelfth house. Rather than shy away from this part of the birth chart, after all the one where planets have just risen, we can find ways to enter in to it and bring out the positive.
