Many astrologers believe that new planets are discovered when we are ready to incorporate the new consciousness represented by that planet into our existing consciousness. With the discovery of 10 new planets this century, we’re entering a period of rapid consciousness development, and this is enabling a whole new understanding of who and where we are. 

This talk is based on Alan’s new book, New Stars for a New Era: A Consciousness Workbook for our 10 New Planets. It will give an overview of the aspects of consciousness represented by each of our ten new planets and then go into more detail on Ixion - Pluto’s lawless brother - our new god of seeker consciousness. We will look at exercises to practically apply the energy, and at house interpretations with examples of famous people, to bring them to life.

To practicalize this information, at the end of the talk we will look at Ixion’s placement in a few charts of participants. If you would like your chart included, send your birth date, place and time in advance to alan@artmedia.com.au  

The talk has grown out of research at the Dwarf Planet University where we see, by simply making these new aspects conscious, students become empowered and their lives are transformed. We need to engage with these new consciousness energies to take them out of the unconscious area of action. To enable this, both the talk and the book include consciousness exercises for each planet, so we can on-board their energy in our lives. As we do, we will become empowered, and our lives will be transformed.

New Stars for a New Era: A Consciousness Workbook for our 10 New Planets

"Alan Clay has written a comprehensive book on the newly discovered dwarf planets, exploring everything from their mythology to practical application. More than just reading about these celestial bodies, Alan shows us how to work with their energies and incorporate them into our lives. Best of all, the book is accessible to both seasoned astrologers and novices eager to gain an understanding of the emergence of new consciousnesses in our world. A strong recommendation for this groundbreaking book.”   Armand Diaz, from a review in the NCGR Memberletter
