Lodge Lecture

Tonight was one of those rare treats. Mike Harding, D.F.Astrol.S, Adv.Dip.Ext.Psych, UKCP reg. is an existential psychotherapist and consultant astrologer. He is a program director, lecturer and supervisor at the School of Psychotherapy & Counselling at Regent’s College, and a visiting lecturer on the Astrology & Cultural Astronomy M.A. programme at Bath Spa University. Over the years he has chaired the Astrological Association, the Association of Professional Astrologers and the Society for Existential Analysis, and was on the Council of the Urania Trust and Faculty of Astrological Studies, where he was the director of their Counselling Within Astrology course. He is the author of Hymns to the Ancient Gods, co-author with Charles Harvey of Working With Astrology as well as many articles on both the technical and philosophical aspects of astrology. In 1997 he was awarded first prize in the A.A.’s The Truth of Astrology essay competition. As well as his astrological writings, Mike has also published papers on the philosophy of language, with particular reference to the works of Freud, Lacan, Heidegger and Wittgenstein.

His experience enabled him to present a laid back, amusing talk, with many co-incidences of time and photos demonstrating this. Charts with similarities of planetary aspects ranged from the Battle of the Somme to the bomb over Hiroshima. The USA's connection. He then went into family connections, including Freud and Hitler.

A wonderful fascinating evening, full of humour.
