The eclipse season is over and as the weather is getting cooler I am aware that summer is coming to an end. The astrological weather for the next few months also looks like it might be settling down as it includes retrograde Mercury for most of September, Pluto turning direct on 9/11 and Saturn’s ingress into Libra right before Halloween. (Virgos shouldn’t get out the party hats yet as Saturn returns for one more pass over the late Virgo degrees in April 2010.)

NEW DIRECTORS ON BOARD
There are also some changes in the air at the San Diego Chapter. I am happy to welcome two new additions to the Board. Jill Estensen has been appointed as the new Publicity Director and Deborah Ifill is our new Recording Secretary. In addition to welcoming Jill and Deborah I’d like to give a big thank you to VP Janet Carrol and Membership Director Tamira McGillivray for filling these positions in addition to their regular roles for the past year.

CALLING ALL ASTROLOGERS
The Study Groups resulted in one member, Janet Sutton, passing Level 1. Congratulations to you Janet, well done!

In light of the changes at NCGR at the national level where it has been decided that education will be under the auspices of the newly formed NCGR-PAA, the Board has decided not to continue the Study Groups. Instead we are sponsoring a free astrological discussion group for astrologers of all levels. The Aquarius Café is open to everyone and will meet on the 3rd Saturday of the month at the Encinitas Library from 12:30-2:30 PM in one of the Study rooms. This months’ topic is Mercury, we will kick off the discussion by listening to a lecture on CD by astrologer Charles Harvey. Bring your chart and any related materials to share or just bring yourself! Coffee and tea are available at the cart outside the library. I’m looking forward to seeing you there.

WEBSITE
Do you have an astrological comment, article to share or a question? Join the discussion by posting comments to the blog!

Another exciting change at SDNCGR is that we will soon be on Facebook. Stand by for instructions on how to ‘friend’ us on the website.
