LOS ANGELES ASTRO SALON – Monthly Astrology Gathering!

Astrolatry, the worship of the seven Planetary Angels, and Lucifer the esoteric Venus in Theosophical Astrology.

This Venus Rx, we're taking an adventure into the depths of Los Angeles occult history!

At this month's Astro Salon, our host Vivi Henriette welcomes guest speaker Dr. James Dotson, who will lead us on an exploration of the doctrines of cosmic cycles, astrological magic, and the lore of the Morning Star and the Fallen Angels, along with the mythos of Lemuria and UFOs.

Along the way, Dr. Dotson will share a brief overview of Theosophy within the early Los Angeles astrological community, featuring major teachers such as C.C. Zain, Augusta Foss Heindel, Llewellyn George, and Dane Rudhyar.
