Welcome to our Monthly Happy Hour, formerly known as “Monthly Community Discussion.”
Hosted by Greg Knell the first Friday of each month, join us at 3:30pm to 5pm, Pacific Time on the dates indicated below. Check back for more updates.

Don’t miss this chance to join our astrological community in discussing the Signs of the Times. Admission is free.
All are welcome (and encouraged) to share. Each month there will be a different focus on a timely topic, and due to current events, that topic may be subject to change.
These gatherings are not recorded to honor the confidentiality of contents shared. We do ask that you be kind to one another.
We hope you won’t miss this opportunity for connection, held on the first Friday of each month, although there’s some exceptions so double check. Join us from 3:30 to 5pm, Pacific Time, and enjoy some community connection!
With Blessings on Your Starry Journey,

Topic: Trines, Grand Trines, and Mini-Grand Trines
Register for Nov 7
With Uranus and Sedna in early Gemini and Pluto in early Aquarius, transiting Grand Trines in Air form any time a faster moving planet has entered Libra.
With Saturn and Neptune in late Pisces and Jupiter in later Cancer, transiting Grand Trines will form when a faster moving planet transits late Scorpio.
Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto presently form a Mini-Grand Trine of two sextiles (Uranus-Neptune, Neptune-Pluto) and a trine (Uranus-Pluto). When there is a third point in late Virgo or early Libra, that Mini-Grand Trine also forms the top of a Kite formation. Next year, the Kite formations will cease while the Mini-Grand Trine will be in closest orb in July 2026.
Trines and Grand Trines (and presumably Mini-Grand Trines) are often said to operate most effectively when there is a hard aspect that focuses the energy.
Let’s discuss the operation of all of these patterns of flow, what it might mean, and how we can best position ourselves for the invitations that they offer over the coming year.
