OUR NEXT SPEAKER EVENT: Astrology Day in the Bay, Saturday, October 25, 12pm to 5:15pm Pacific Time
Don’t miss this informative mini-conference, where keynote speaker, Georgia Stathis, along with Ryan Hunt and Grace Cloyd, bring their knowledge and experience to help you with the signs of the times. Join live in person at Albany Community Center in Albany, Calif, nestled next to Berkeley, or online.
RYAN HUNT: The Moon, the Mother, and the Map Within
The Moon, the Mother, and the Map Within introduces “Inner-Stellar Systems”, a lunar-centered astrological methodology that views the Moon as a living emotional and ancestral presence. This framework integrates Internal Family Systems and other modalities to offer practical approaches for emotional integration, generational healing, and working with the “Moonlight” as an inner guide in personal and client practice.
GRACE CLOYD: Generational Astrology
I have been researching, studying, and redefining the nine currently-living human generations through the orbits, ingresses, and transits of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. This project started as a series of blog articles in 2016-2017, and my research and findings will be summarized in my upcoming generational astrology book, “The Signs of Our Times”, which will debut this coming Fall 2025. My presentation for NCGR-SF will define each generational period through their astrological placements, revealing how humanity is both mirroring and evolving itself throughout these last 130 years to the present day. Time permitting, I may also discuss what we might look forward to as our next generational period – the Generation Beta period (2025-2040) – begins.
Keynote Speaker: GEORGIA STATHIS: You and Me and the 29th Degree
Have you felt like you were going faster like a hamster wheel yet going nowhere? You are in the throes of the 29th degree. There are four planetary bodies changing signs over the course of the next year: Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, and Chiron (next year). That is a Lot. They ingress, they retreat, they ingress again. Stathis explores the ‘void’ and other views of the Anaretic degree along with historical and personal examples and includes how to use them with a solar arc or two.

ABOUT OUR SPEAKERS (In the Order of Appearance)
RYAN HUNT:
Ryan’s astrological journey began at age eight, witnessing a partial lunar eclipse, and was deepened by his grandfather’s traditional methods of using the stars. He spent years traveling the world and seeking spiritual truths, eventually finding his spiritual home in Vajrayana Buddhism. In 2017 he felt a profound call from Chiron, the wounded healer, which led him to dedicate his extensive knowledge to healing.
He has since studied with many esteemed astrologers and is a member of several professional organizations. Today, Ryan integrates his vast knowledge of astrological systems and divination to help clients navigate life’s challenges and achieve personal transformation.

GRACE CLOYD:
Curiosity led Grace to astrology and numerology nearly 25 years ago, sparking a lifelong intellectual and spiritual journey. She taught herself to draft charts and incorporated Tarot into her practice. Her biggest breakthrough came while overcoming health challenges, when she discovered how astrology and numerology could clarify and enhance each other. This led to the creation of her unique Life By Soul® System.
This powerful, intuitive system combines Western Astrology and Latin Numerology to provide highly accurate, customized insights into an individual’s life purpose. Grace is passionate about helping clients find clarity and navigate their unique journeys.
