Gary Christen, "Astrology as a Revolutionary Science - The Third Leg of Symmetrical Astrology"
Symmetrical Astrology has the techniques of the Uranian System at its core, or first level. The Uranian System is a revision of astrology from the beginning of the Hellenistic Greek era to the late Renaissance. The second level of Symmetrical Astrology is represented in the work of A.H. Blackwell -- a synthesis of Babylonian Astrology with Blackwell's unique horizon-based techniques (supported by the visual tools he developed). The third leg of Symmetrical Astrology is a philosophical framework, a set of concepts that unify and inform the system's praxis. Rob Hand expressed the final version of these ideas as an article published in Tad Mann's The Future of Astrology (1987).

Rob Hand's article discusses Astrology's most important role in the modern era. It is a clarion call to use our historical roots and create a new science or craft of astrology for our collective future. Or, as Rob puts it, "If astrologers only have a past, they will have no future." Astrology is a rejected truth upon which the origin of modern science is built. The rejection of Astrology as magical thinking without testing the subject is science's original sin. This talk is about these ideas and how Astrology may provide an antidote to the poisonous elements of modern science.

About Gary Christen:
GARY CHRISTEN is a well-known practitioner of Uranian Astrology, which he has evolved into modern Symmetrical Astrology. An astrologer since his teens, he is the first person in modern times awarded an accredited B.A. degree in astrology (Livingston College, Rutgers University, 1974). An international lecturer, Gary has been teaching since the early seventies and has been a professional astrologer since 1969.

Currently, Gary is President and CEO of Astrolabe, Inc. a world-renowned astrological think-tank and software publisher based in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Astrolabe is the publisher of Solar Fire, Astrolabe Report System and many other outstanding works in the field of astrology. Gary has spent most of his career working towards moving the entire field of astrology into a commanding position in the new technological age. He is currently working on “Solar Fire X” (with the staff of Astrolabe) and “Nova Chartwheels” (along with Ray White as programmer) based on his methods and technique as well as writing “An Approach to Astrology.”

From Gary:

“I try to keep on the cutting edge of  astrological thinking.”

“Basically, I specialize in the Symmetrical Astrology, which is composed of various schools of thought comprising the Uranian System, Cosmobiology, Cosmobiosophical and others based on the ideas compiled by Alfred Witte and incorporates many of the mundane ideas introduced by A. H. Blackwell. Its philosophic background is taken from “Astrology as a Revolutionary Science” authored by Rob Hand. This modern approach also utilizes other new-wave forms of astrology as I long ago passed through the more orthodox and traditional forms.  I teach people new ways of looking and thinking about astrology.”

Doctor H, "The Moon’s Configuration: How a Single Luminary Maps a Life"
“The Moon’s Configuration” is a research program that reads biography through the Moon’s separating and applying aspects—what the native leaves (separation) and what the native must meet (application). Using traditional and medieval frameworks (Lilly, Abu Maʿshar) alongside modern, data-minded checks, the study traces life chapters as the Moon moves from its last contact to its next intended aspect, noting void-of-course intervals as liminal thresholds. Case studies range from Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning to John Marshall, Henri Matisse, and contemporary figures, showing how the same lunar logic can time breakthroughs, impasses, and workarounds in love, vocation, and public life. The presentation summarizes method, shows matched timelines, and outlines where the model holds—and where it prudently stops.

About Doctor H:
Doctor H is an astrologer, researcher, and author of two books: A Rectification Manual: The American Presidency and America is Born: Introducing the Regulus USA National Horoscope. His work integrates medieval and Hellenistic techniques—Distributors & Partners (Abu Maʿshar), Firdaria, Zodiacal Releasing, victor-of-the-chart modeling—with rigorous historical chronology and statistical scrutiny. He is the creator of the “Moon’s Configuration” project, an ongoing series mapping how the Moon’s separating and applying aspects frame lived trajectories, and he is known for large-scale studies on U.S. mundane charts and for thematic Wednesday natal-database entries on Substack, notably the Jupiter in Cancer series. Beyond technique, his practice emphasizes falsifiable claims, careful sourcing, and transparent limits, aiming to bridge traditional delineation with testable, real-world timelines. He publishes at Regulus Astrology’s “House of Wisdom,” where he develops long-form reports, data appendices, and teaching notes for practitioners and historically minded readers.

Bill Meridian, "Johndro and Jayne: The Precision Astrologers"
Charles Jayne and L. Edward Johndro were the best technical astrologers of their era.  They felt that astrology was so accurate that the most minor and daily
events were predictable. Here is the thinking that led to the development of these techniques.

About Bill Meridian:
Bill Meridian began to study astrology in 1972. He trained to be a core energetic therapist with John Pierrakos in NYC for 9 years. He has written four books in the mundane and financial areas. His eclipse book is an application of the work of Jayne and Johndro. His work is a combination of training in core energetics and Zen practice. Bill is a member of the board of the Foundation for the Study of Cycles.
