Next Meeting & EAG Dates for 2026
12th April 2026 - An Astrological Diary of the Seventeenth Century: Samuel Jeake of Rye (1652-1699).
Samuel Jeake was an astrologer and merchant who live during the second half of the 17th century. This was a turbulent time in England and Jeake's diary gives an unusual astrological perspective on his life and times. Jeake was a contemporary of William Lilly and the other great English astrologers of the period. However he remained somewhat on the outside of the astrological activity centred on London and provincial cities. Ed will share Jeake's horoscope, some of the key entries from Jeake's diary and the charts he drew for significant moments in his life.
25th April 2026 - Mind, Body, and Spirit Fayre at Exeter Corn Exchange, EX1 1BW.
The EAG will be hosting a table at this Wild Tribe event, in order to promote the EAG, and to promote Astrology in general. The event runs from 10am to 4pm, and we will be explaining what we do, what Astrology is, and giving mini readings freely to those who may want them.
10th May 2026 - Love, Lust and Longing (Part One) - Archetypal Venus.
One of our newest members, Ingrid Hoffman, will be leading this session on the archetype of Venus.
She writes: "Our birth charts speak to our human need for attachment and belonging. This month we get up close and personal as we explore the erotic force of desire, the power of love, the heartbreaking initiation of loss, the dark, initiation of rage—the dance of Venus. We’ll look at this ancient archetype in the birth charts of celebrities and the synastry charts of famous couples (big reveal on the day…) Mars and Venus are personal planets in the language of astrology, so if you would like to share your own expression of these two archetypes with our group, please send your birth details to Ed before May 1st (edastro@protonmail.com).
This session is the first of a two-part look at the archetypes of Venus and Mars. The second session on Mars will follow later in the year.
14th June 2026 - Death, Its Avoidance, and Reincarnation.
Jeremy will present a number of notable examples where Death has come calling in an interesting or unusual manner; where Death has been cheated and the mortal escaped to live another day; where people are claimed to have returned for another round of life; and finally a method to judge reincarnation that explains someone currently [in]famous who is an extreme and obvious example of reincarnation.
12th July 2026 - 6 Months In: A Review of 2026 So Far.
In this session there will be a chance to review the extraordinary events of 2026 so far. The ingresses of transpersonal planets into fire and air signs will now be complete and Saturn will be established in Aries. This session will be a chance to take stock and to draw a breath following a dramatic six months in global affairs. Astrology offers a unique perspective on world events and it allows us to see mundane affairs with a different point of view. Please join us to look at the world through the lens of mundane astrology.
