What lies ahead for 2020, as told by the stars?

Join astrologer Francesca Lisette, also known as Glitter Oracle, in conversation with Ignota Books' Ben Vickers about the rise of astrology in an age of advanced technology — and for an in-depth look at 2020’s cosmic promises to stretch, test, empower and change us.

The year ahead delivers its often-strong medicine through climactic peaks to certain themes, which have been building steadily over not just the last decade, but several. But although it may be challenging or intense at times, staying with the discomfort is essential for deeper paradigm shifts. Lisette, astrologer for the Ignota Diary 2020, explores how working with astrology can enable you to access the depths of your potential and to navigate the current moment of historical transition, political instability and existential anxiety.

Tickets are £10 / £8 Plus cardholders / £20 including a copy of Ignota Diary 2020. All tickets include a drink. Book early to avoid disappointment.
