Awareness of Cosmic Influence
PRF Presentation 7-15-15
Chris Brennan
Astrologer l Teacher l Lecturer
Ever wondered why people look to astrological alignments and events for insights? It’s time to step back, open your mind and reconsider old opinions formed at a less evolved time in your life. To have an intelligent consideration on this matter it’s necessary to step out of any mainstream commercialized western perception that has been marketed and objectively view the foundation and facts that have created and sustained this knowledge for many thousands of years. Before forming any opinions about such work it’s important to remember Albert
Einstein’s quote ~ “Condemnation without investigation is the highest form of ignorance.” With that in mind our Wednesday evening presentation will provide an historic foundation for your consideration as science and spirituality are slowly starting to be viewed as one.

Scientists are discovering every star and planet has a unique signature of subtle energy which in some form and manner affects life events and activity within their influence. Our sun’s electromagnetic fields are only one of the more dramatic examples of these energies science recognizes and is now giving great consideration to. Subtle driving forces in the background of our environment may not be obvious but are critical to be aware of. To dismiss or minimize their role in our lives would be unwise.
It has been made clear for thousands and tens of thousands of years most prominent ancient cultures on most continents have had access to technologies far beyond our current global cultures. 
All of them closely and thoughtfully observed their relationships with nature and recognized specific correlations with specific planetary and star alignments. Each of these cultures developed their own methodology for analysis continually refining their understanding of our relationship to the stars, heavens and their influences.
For thousands of years Egyptian, European, Chinese, Mayan and other cultures have meticulously tracked astrological positions and events to determine their relationship with human and planetary activity. The patterns independently identified by these multiple cultures clearly demonstrate an absolute relationship with us and our planet.
The first half of the evening’s presentation will focus primarily on the creation and history of astrology including the diverse cultural approaches and the western methodology which incorporates a collective of these processes. The second half will be driven more by audience interests and answering questions that arise.
Since our culture has been so focused on the pursuit of technological advancements we have lost our connection and relationship with nature. Perhaps our most profound connection and natural influence is the star systems that we are an integral part of.
