New Year’s Predictions Panel — with a new twist
Over the many years, SDAS has forged a long tradition of looking — as
one year wanes and another bounces out of the heavenly delivery room —
into what the following 12 months are likely to bring. This year we’re
giving it a new twist by doing it in a manner that embraces astrological
diversity.
The celestial traditions inherent to various Western and Eastern
cultures offer their own unique spices that give us a richer and more
highly textured brew when taken together. SDAS is using this year to
embrace that diversity by presenting a panel of astrologers who use
various traditions to give us an overview of what 2009 may hold for us.
To give the simplest of examples, classic Greek astrology does not offer
anything that resembles the unique classification of individual years
that Chinese astrology has used for millenia. And the 27 nakshatras of
the Vedic system have no widely accepted correlates in modern Western
astrology.
As we walk into the future under a new U.S. President, a
newly-configured Congress, and an economy that appears (at least on the
surface) to be anybody’s guess from one week to the next, it almost
seems incumbent upon us to keep our eyes and our minds wide open for
signposts to guide us through these uncharted territories.
Come join us for an intrepid exploration mapped out by a respected group
of experienced guides. This is one of our most highly anticipated annual
events and always engenders lively discussion during intermission.
