How the Saturn (status quo) square to Uranus (sudden change) will affect the CAAE Birth Chart
On February 17, CAAE experienced the first square between Saturn and Uranus. These events happen every twenty-two years. These planets have completely different energies, Saturn maintains the status quo, while Uranus brings change and chaos to whatever needs changing. These two planets will square again on June 14 and December 24, this year. The sqyare between the two planets fall in CAAE’s house of the home (4 degrees of Aquarius on the Cusp of CAAE’s fourth house of the home) and 28 degrees of Aries is on the Cusp of CAAE’s 7th house of one-to-one relationships). This year, nothing will stay the same, we must get rid of the old, and embrace the new. If certain elements of CAAE’s life have become obsolete, we must be prepared to make changes. Our comfortable realities will be challenged by other people, or by circumstances, or long suppressed tensions held within. During this tense and anxious cycle, relationships go through a period of readjustment. We should not take unnecessary risks but, on the positive side, we must open up to new ideas, beliefs, goals, people and interests. Saturn and Uranus will help up to clear out any elements of the organization that are no longer working. This will give us a chance to rebuild based on the Aquarian concepts of freedom, inclusivity and individuality. The best way to handle this Saturn/Uranus energy is to go with the flow. We may not get a full picture of what this all means to CAAE until after the third Saturn/Uranus Square in December 2021
CAAE will experience its first Saturn Return (28 degrees of Aquarius) at the end of next year. . Share your concerns with us. Help up to build a better association.
Check your own birth charts to see how this square affects the houses in your birth chart and the planets you have that are connected to it. The saying “The only constant is change” certainly applies to the year 2021.
I wish each of you great success with your courses and exams. Looking at the world through Astrological Eyes sure make a lot of sense these days.

Mundane Astrology and the Long Cycles - Bryan Trussler
This is for budding buddhas who have been studying astrology for a few years. You know your way around, so why should it still take three hours to analyse a chart? This course is about doing more with less, about exploiting quirky imbalances at an atomic level and pursuing them, about clearing out the noise and focusing on what matters, about how to get maximum mileage out of the foundational stones of the chart when time is critical.

Phone: 519.576.6333
Length Eight sessions,
Cost: $300.
Venue: Kitchener, ON, or via Skype

CAAE Expresses Our Deepest Sympathy
Joan Gibbins
May 13, 1932 - Jan 15, 2021
We are so sorry to share that Joan Gibbins, founding member of the Canadian Association for Astrological Education (CAAE), passed away January 15, 2021.
Along with Elaine Pond, Joan founded the CAAE, an organization established in 1993 to provide a structure for the study of astrology by providing courses and examinations.
Originally from the small town of Mcadam in New Brunswick, Joan came to Toronto where she and her husband, Ralph, raised three sons and where Joan pursued a career in psychiatric nursing. With her interest in sports, Joan was also an active volunteer for many years with Tennis Canada.
Joan began her astrological studies over 40 years ago at the Institute for Astrological Studies in Toronto, under Elizabeth Tessier. Immediately after graduating from there, she moved into teaching and sharing her knowledge for her passion, astrology.
Joan’s determination and drive plus vision of setting up a Canadian educational organization back in 1993 has been the backbone and starting point for many astrology students and professional astrologers alike.
Our astrological community has suffered a great loss. We all will be forever grateful for Joan’s contribution to Canadian astrology.
