upcoming & Past events
Join Charm Torres for an afternoon of exploring the Moon from your birth and the inherent webs of ancestral connection reflected in your birth chart. Your Moon is so much more than your emotional self. Your astrological birth chart is not just about you, but it is also about multilayered stories, people and places that surround your life. We will learn about your Moon with the intention of supporting your ancestral rituals and practices. Embodying and connecting with your Moon can help you navigate your desire for belonging. You’ll come away with practical and creative ideas to nourish your need for ancestral sustenance.

FRESH VOICES IN ASTROLOGY: Locational Astrology & Assessing Planetary Condition
Join me on Saturday, Mar. 20, 2021, at 1 pm PDT / 4 pm EDT!
If astrology is the study of time, locational astrology is a fascinating niche of practice that can provide you insights on how you relate to space. Learn why not all Venus & Jupiter lines are “good” nor Mars & Saturn lines are “bad”. I will present the basics of working with an astrolocality map and relocated charts as tools for determining your relationship to a place. I will go over a quick set of Hellenistic Astrology techniques of assessing planetary condition to determine the strength and struggles of one’s natal placement in another location.

ESSENTIAL DIGNITY FOR REAL LIFE on Jan. 10, 2021 3 pm PST / 6 pm EST
Essential dignity is a fundamental technique with very old roots in ancient astrology, but it’s terminology can be easily misunderstood and easily misapplied. As 2020’s “Dignity Babes” effort demonstrated, though, essential dignity can be an incredible tool for understanding the nuances, challenges, privileges, and oppressions that people experience. This panel discussion brings together five astrologers who are deeply invested in bringing the usefulness and nuance of essential dignity into the modern era, and will provide you with a better grasp on the whys and hows of essential dignity in practice.
