Lodge Lecture

Following the night of Halloween and on the evening of All Saints we were treated to a talk by Helene Schnitzer (our Beginners Class tutor) on 'Clairvoyants, Mystics and Other Strange People'. In a study of charts of mystics and magicians it was the outer planets in the chart that gave them the insight and in some cases, strength of mind to push beyond Saturn, the planet of time. Ingredients of the chart were the Moon for sensitivity and the occult, Mercury (Hermes) and the underworld, Mars and Saturn for Alchemy, the 8th house of death and the occult and the 12th house, house of the realm of the unseen.

In a very interesting way Helene demonstrated by showing charts of famous illusionists and magicians with just the personal planets, then drawing in the outer planets, showing how Uranus breaks through Saturn in a raw, violent, unexpected way, Neptune creating illusion, delusion, deceit, secrets and lies, and Pluto which creates one pointed meditation, drive and intense concentration. The outer planets are not visible to the naked eye but connect us on a collective scale.

Charts shown included those of the psychic Daniel D. Home, famous for his levitation, Uri Geller, famous for bending his spoons, Sai Baba of India and Edgar Cayce.

A fascinating evening. Thank you Helene.
