Looking into the future has been a near obsession with humans since they first realized that planning and preparations are the basis of surviving through the winter or the rainy season. While most of us are a far cry form those days, winter, like spring, is always coming in some form or another. Astrology has been the basis for many predictions and in this presentation we will discuss what we believe to be reasonable forecasts for the next thirty years using astrology as its basis and current events, history, economics, and psychology to build the framework for elaboration.
These forecasts will examine:
Why Pluto matters and does it matter anymore?
Are we in the Age of Aquarius or the End of the Kali Yuga? Or Neither.
What is the point to it all?
Psychic vs astrological forecasting: strengths and weaknesses.
Who to be a better or even expert forecaster.
Who is in charge if anyone?
Why the 1% Matters - And What To Do About It
Technology, AI, and You: Would you like a side of Nukes with that?
Resources and What They Will Be
Robbing Banks and "Where the money is" in 2030
Pythagoras and his Y: Good Choices, Bad Choices, and the Future You
Action to take to secure you and your children's future, and maybe grandchildren's future as well.
2060: The World of your children and grandchildren and what it will look like
PS. This means where you will be reincarnating back into.

The Future Is Happening...Now
The future cannot be avoided - only lived. How we live it, what we leave for those coming after us, and what we may experience along the way as a result of our actions and their effects however, is up to us.
The Institute for Hermetic Studies provides classes on classical and modern spirituality so that each of us can live a more productive, pro-active, and meaningful life.
By peeking behind the curtain of time, using both esoteric and exoteric methods, we seek to get a glimpse of that may be happening so that we may prepare ourselves and those we care about for it in a positive and effective manner. In the end, the future is what it is, but what we become on the way to it, and as a result of it, that is completely in our hands.
Grab ahold of your future today and let the Institute for Hermetic Studies be your friend and guide on that journey.
