“The Symbolic Components of the Natal Chart Corresponding to the Elements of a Novel or Play."

 If you recall way back in your high school sophomore literature class you were taught the elements of a novel or play, at least it was for me in my sophomore class. I liked that class and in it I was taught that every story has seven basic elements:

The author, includes his bio. and background in the back pages of his book. The theme of the author's novel gives you his reason for why he is authoring the story, usually in the foreword or introduction of the book.

The characters in the story represent all the major and minor players. The mood of the characters describe how the player's roles are expressed, usually in a very descriptive manner.

The setting of the novel tells you the location of the story, also in a descriptive manner. The time of the story gives you a period of history when the story takes place. Finally, the plot, which for many is the most important element, tells of the action in the story or the unfolding of events.

Lecture begins at 7:30 PM (Check in at 7:15 PM)
