Radical Elections (NORWAC 2022)
At the root of any action lie the seeds of the past. In electional astrology, any chart we choose for our beginning is always connected with “root” charts, including nativities, other inceptions, and mundane events. These roots ground the elected action within evolving personal stories as well as collective concerns. This talk examines radical elections, demonstrating specific techniques for rooting our charts, situating this practice within the tradition, and contemplating how our astrology may grow when we take roots seriously.
Chart examples include Angela Davis, Karl Marx, and an election used for the first meeting of an arts activism project.
