FAA Conference 2012

A Field of Dreams

When organising an event, whether it be a weekend seminar, one of my Greek trips or a conference, I often relate to Kevin Costner’s character in Field of Dreams; mainly the episode in the movie when he is walking through the cornfield and hears a voice that whispers to him, “If you build it, he will come” and then he has a vision of a baseball diamond. This becomes his field of dreams.

I did play baseball, but am not a great baseball fan and truly I am not inclined to hear voices, so my connection to Kevin’s character is metaphorical. That is, if you try your best to create a place for something to happen, it will. Well we tried our best to create a space for the 19th FAA International Conference to happen and it did. Once it’s all set it place you really have to let go of control and let it happen. And that’s why I would like to thank every one of you who helped make it happen, especially the wonderful delegates who attended the conference and participated in the experience.

Participation is one of the words I often use to describe what can come about when one willingly enters into a space to allow something to happen. Astrology is one of the few remaining living disciplines that allows us to experience what we are studying, learning and perceiving on all levels simultaneously. As we learn more about who we are it reveals itself in some way. It is participatory learning in all senses when we let it be. That’s why coming to a conference is not just a great opportunity to learn with some of the best teachers in the world, but it also offers the opportunity to participate with the magic of astrology and let it reveal itself to us. I sincerely hope you were able to involve yourself and deepen your understanding of this sacred science.
