Astrological Tools for the 21st Century

Everyone at the Geocosmic Alchemy conference in Baltimore was pleased with the wonderful attendees, the enthusiastic volunteers, the marvelous speakers, the unique venue and everything else about the conference experience. And that includes, of course, our feature presenters, Richard Tarnas and Caroline Casey.

Thanks go to the many participants who made this a success. This includes the faculty, those on the professional empowerment panels, the research symposium participants, the free speech presenters, and all the wonderful volunteers, and the best ever DJ, Doug Dineen!

  Join NCGR The National Council for Geocosmic Research, Inc., (NCGR) is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising the standards of astrological education and research. Though it began as "national," NCGR's current membership of about 2500 includes a growing number of international members. The organization's activities include sponsoring local Chapters (currently 42 located in 26 states and 4 countries). Additionally, several Special Interest Groups (SIGs) cross wide geographical areas to foster dialogue among people of similar astrological specialties.

Professionally certified astrologers among NCGR members have passed all four levels of an education and testing program based on a comprehensive curriculum widely respected for its excellence and rigor. Though there is no requirement that NCGR members be practicing astrologers, over 1000 members have participated in the testing program at Level 1 or above and momentum is growing. A Code of Ethics, to which members are accountable, provides guidance for the practice of astrology.


NCGR annually sponsors an educational conference, and publishes two issues of its magazine Geocosmic Journal plus six newsletters, Memberletter. A variety of other publications are produced intermittently, and tapes of conference lectures are also offered.
