Events happen monthly, every third Monday 7-9pm at RVML (except July and August)

Presentation Description:
Of the many natural astrological cycles, such as the day and the year, the little known 500 year cycle is the most interesting and may be the most fundamental astrological cycle of history. This talk will first show why this cycle exists and when each cycle starts and then explore how this cycle has played out in the last 2500 years, with special emphasis given to the last 500 years; we will explore the important world transits that highlighted that period so we can see how we got to the present.
Most people think of the future as simply an extension of the present, and don't really expect things to change except to get "more", but each beginning of a new cycle represents a "change of state" from what has gone before. You really can't see the future if you can't see the past, and so with this background, we will explore the next 500 years. "The 500-Year Party" starts off where Richard Tarnas' "Cosmos and Psyche" ends.
