WELCOME TO THE 10TH ANNUAL ASTROLOGY STUDENT CONFERENCE!
Once again we feel proud and privileged to have a line-up of world-class speakers – a stellium of leading teachers, authors and consultants who will be sharing their insights during this special weekend.
The theme of our 10th conference is ‘Applying Astrological Techniques’ and we have a series of talks exploring the diverse ways in which astrology can be used personally and professionally.
To celebrate our tenth anniversary, we have a lineup of ten outstanding speakers. We’re delighted to welcome back stellar astrologers Bernadett e Brady, Darby Costello and Alexander von Schlieff en, who will be running the workshops this year.

For this two-day event, we’re back at our sparkling, breezy venue: the functi on rooms on the fi rst fl oor of the famous Browns restaurant on St Marti n’s Lane (just minutes from Leicester Square and Covent Garden). We’ll also be having our annual Saturday night dinner in a private room upstairs at Browns. We shall have a bookstall of the latest ti tles, classic texts and books from the speakers, all thanks to The Astrology Shop of Neal Street, Covent Garden – and the shop is close enough to visit during the lunch breaks.
