She was a co-founder of LightHouse Events which has created seasonal ceremonies, classes and seminars, and spiritual retreats and now Aquarian Light.

Astrology: Secrets of the Star
Mon. May 19, 2014
7pm
$5 suggested donation
Actor Leonard Nimoy narrates this acclaimed documentary that raises questions and attempts to answer them. Are the secrets truly written in the heavens, or is the ancient practice of astrology further evidence of mankind's need to seek fate and meaning beyond the "real" world? This is a well rounded introduction to astrology, astronomy and beyond. For more information call 651-235-6645.
Our film discussion series is normally on the fourth Monday night of the month but will be held on the third Monday in May to avoid conflict with Memorial day.
