Gary Christen with a brief history in the field of astrology, how astrology reflects culture, individuals and mutation, and a forecast for the future

In this episode, we spoke with Gary Christen, a 2/4 Sacral Generator and well-known practitioner of Uranian Astrology (and its developing expression as Symmetrical Astrology). An astrologer since his teens, he is the first person in modern times awarded an accredited B.A. degree in astrology from Livingston College at Rutgers University in 1974. A professional astrologer since 1969, Gary co-founded and is the current president of Astrolabe, Inc., assisting in the development of many Astrolabe products and is an encyclopedia of astrological knowledge.
Gary takes us through a wild ride and history lesson in the field of astrology including the beginning of his astrological journey in the 60s and the many individuals who contributed to the process. He shares some background on the Uranian system of astrology and the early days of astrological computing. He emphasizes how astrology is always the product of the culture in which it was developed and how mutation often comes through a single individual. He touches on some of the challenges we’re faced with today in terms of astrological education and gives us a sense of hope for astrology and humanity in the future.

Ernst Wilhelm, astrologer and researcher on his experience with Human Design and the intersection with Vedic Astrology

In this episode, we are speaking with Ernst Wilhelm, a Vedic Astrologer, and researcher who has been actively teaching since 1996. He has written several books in addition to producing extensive video courses for his astrological school. 
He brings a wealth of astrological, occult, psychological, and humanistic knowledge learned through his own study, research and practice. He is a mechanic who has gone back to many of the source texts to reinterpret and discover more precise ways to use astrology to accurately understand our plight as humans.
Ernst shares with us his understanding of the value of traditional astrological techniques such as the Lajjitadi Avashtas and the Planetary Maturations, and explores the mechanics of the Program and the concepts of predetermination and "no-choice". His view is truly his own and continues to be a living exploration of personal and cosmic truth.
Most of our episodes focus on hearing from experts in the human design system. Occasionally we like to bring in those who have expertise in other systems as well as enough understanding of Human design to have a cross-pollinating conversation. 
If you have studied many different systems, you have probably found it to be true that certain principles of truth repeat among different bodies of knowledge. It is an incredibly rich and validating process to see that we can come to very similar conclusions from different perspectives. 
Ernst is a truly free-thinking individual who draws from source materials in Vedic astrology and doesn’t shy away from perspectives that work and can be validated through experience no matter what tradition they emerge from.
After years of following his revolutionary work in Vedic astrology, we were thrilled to see him posting videos about Human Design. He is truly a 6/2 Sacral Generator on the Cross of Upheaval and if you stay tuned, you’ll see why.
