An invitation!

In 2012 the Australian farming community will come together to observe a year of farmers, libraries will mark the year of reading, while in Europe it’s the year of Active Ageing.  Here at the C*I*A we invite you to join us in celebrating 2012 as the Year of Astrology.

As 2012 hosts the rare transit of Venus, how appropriate it’s also the International Year of Sustainable Energy for All and the International Year of Cooperatives. This has inspired us to create a Venus Mission as part of the 2012 celebrations (see below).

In a left-brain culture that is information-laden, mechanically and technically obsessed, astrology remains ignored and often ridiculed except to those who have participated in its insights. Let’s help change that in 2012 by celebrating astrology.

Astrological tradition has bequeathed a plethora of techniques, a variety of approaches and a diversity of practice and application. Whether Academic or Akashic, Heliocentric or Hellenistic, Medieval or Mundane, astrology telescopes cosmic experience for the benefit of human awareness. It is inspirational by nature and in 2012 we can continue to inspire ourselves and others with the mysteries of astrology.

Like an ancient language, astrological words convey symbols and layers of meaning beyond rational concepts. The imaginative nature of astrology lies beyond its methods, a conundrum in a culture that seeks proof in literality. You don’t need to prove or believe in Latin; likewise astrology needs to be freed from its criticism. In 2012 we can work together to articulate astrology.

There are many ways to celebrate, inspire and articulate astrology in 2012 but the most important will be your own. Please join us in acknowledging astrology as a valuable and resourceful instrument in our human experience.

If you’re planning an astrological event or wanting more information about how to get involved, please visit our global event map to see what others are up to, get ideas about what you could do, or come up with a dedicated 2012 Year of Astrology celebration of your own.

The C*I*A’s main event will be our Venus Mission coinciding with the Venus transit mid-year. The Venus Mission is about the intention of re-evaluating our relationship with the Soul of the World (the Anima Mundi) and with our planet. We make a call for love, honour and respect to be returned to the heart of our relationship with Earth.

We will launch 2012: Year of Astrology at the Federation of Australian Astrologers International conference on January 19^th. We’re keen to hear any ideas you’d like to share on how to promote the campaign throughout the year.

Join in the spirit of 2012 and help us get the word out by forwarding this letter to any colleagues, groups and organizations that you think might be interested. Get involved with our Facebook page, share your ideas and invite your friends. Let’s make the most of the social networks that have united astrologers worldwide.

Thanks from all of us at the Cosmic Intelligence Agency, a global network of astrologers.
The time is ripe.
We hope you join us in making this happen.
