In episode 222 astrologers Chris Brennan and Leisa Schaim lead a discussion about annual profections with a local astrology group, and take example charts from the audience to demonstrate how the timing technique works in practice.
This episode is a recording of a meeting of the Denver Astrology Group that took place at the Mercury Cafe in downtown Denver, Colorado on Saturday, September 14, 2019, starting just after 3:00 PM.
This is a followup to episode 153 of The Astrology Podcast where Chris gave an introductory lecture on the annual profections timing technique.
This episode begins with a brief introduction to annual profections and review of some of the basic principles of the technique, and then we quickly transitioned into asking audience members to look through their own chronology and see if they could find any good examples that demonstrated the technique in their own lives.
In the end we had seven different audience members share their birth charts and talk about specific years in their life, explaining how the technique correlated with their lived experience.
This style of discussion can be important because sometimes it is only by talking to a person directly about their life and asking them questions that you can get a full sense of exactly how the techniques of astrology work out in practice.

8th house profection: I was 55 when I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. My initial shock was replaced by acceptance given that my chances of remission were 90% plus. Nonetheless, you might say the knock of death on my door became more audible. Fast forward 12 years and here I am with an 8th house profession again. And, though I’m in good health, the knock of death on my door is more audible than before.
Try not to worry about it too much, as there are other significations of the 8th house or manifestations of it that can sometimes become relevant in those profection years, especially depending on how the ruler is situated.
