    Public Space Dialogue: "Divine Astrology"

    Date & Time: November 18th, 2025

    Synopsis:

    In this episode of Public Space, we journey into the realm of Divine Astrology — exploring how the language of the stars can be reinterpreted as a living dialogue between the cosmos and consciousness. Dr. Aaron Waldron, M.Div., sits down to reflect on the work and teachings of Dr. Louis Turi, whose insights into cosmic consciousness invite us to see astrology not as superstition, but as a sacred science of the soul. Together, we’ll explore how Divine Astrology unveils an ancient wisdom that transcends the institutional and colonized frameworks of religion — returning us to a direct, embodied relationship with the Divine through the cosmos itself.

    As we look beyond dogma, Divine Astrology becomes a Theopoetic practice — an art of reading the sky as scripture, not written in words but in symbols, rhythms, and archetypes. The planets are not distant bodies, but mirrors of our collective and personal evolution.
