Episode 153 of the podcast is a recording of a webinar by Chris Brennan on an ancient timing technique known as annual profections, which is used to make yearly predictions about a person’s life.
The lecture begins by introducing the concept of time-lord techniques in Hellenistic astrology, and how they are used to determine when the natal potential or promise of certain placements in the birth chart will become awakened in the life of the native.
We then go into a detailed treatment of the basic method of using annual profections, and how to use the technique to make yearly forecasts and predictions, starting from the day of a person’s birthday or solar return.
In particular we focus on identifying the main planetary ruler of the year, known as the lord of the year, and how to determine what topics or themes are likely to arise in the native’s life when this planet is activated, based on how it is situated in the birth chart.
