Many of our members have extensive collecting, exhibiting, or speaking experience, and discussions are always interesting and rewarding. New and developing collectors will find an audience ready and willing to help with expanding one’s knowledge and enjoyment of the hobby.

Western North Carolina is in an interesting geographical location: we get visitors from the north during the winter, from the south during the summer, and many people who decide they’ve had enough of either of those climates to move here permanently! We urge visitors of any age with philatelic interests to join us, even if only for a short time. We may even convince you to enjoy our region full-time!

Membership

We welcome collectors of all ages and interests.

Benjamin Bernstein’s Annual Astrological Look to the Future
Jan 21 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
online
Benjamin Bernstein's Annual Astrological Look to the Future

On Friday, January 21, Benjamin Bernstein will be presenting his annual look at upcoming transits for the new year. Asheville Friends of Astrology is also introducing a new registration procedure for 2022.

Up to this point, we have relied on voluntary contributions to compensate our speakers for their considerable time and effort in preparing and presenting their talks to our members. For some time now, however, this has not been working. Therefore, we will be asking attendees to make their speaker donations prior to attending the talk as part of our new registration process.

This is how it will work. Attendees will register by going to PayPal and sending your contribution to [email protected]. This is Deborah Hellman’s (our Treasurer) PayPal account, and it will show up as Akashic Records Education. Contribute to our speaker (add a note that you are registering for AFOA’s January 2022 meeting) and Deborah will send you the Zoom link and password for Benjamin’s talk within 24 hours before the presentation. Of course, please do not share this link and password with anyone else.

We are asking you to make a minimum speaker’s donation of $5. Feel free to contribute more and the PayPal account will also be open after the talk if you are inclined to increase your donation amount. We hope that you appreciate that our speakers put in many hours of preparation in order to deliver an informative and enjoyable presentation filled with astrological insight. If you feel that you cannot afford the minimum donation, you may contact Deborah at [email protected] to negotiate a sliding scale fee. Also, if you do not have access to PayPal or are having a difficult time making the donation, please contact Deborah.

In 2021, we experienced a world still turned upside down. So what can we expect in 2022?

AFOA founding member Benjamin Bernstein will give his annual forecast lecture via Zoom on Friday, January 21 at 7 PM US Eastern Time. This call may reach capacity, so register early.

The Saturn-Uranus square that we experienced last year is still active in 2022 and Benjamin will be telling us about an important “mini grand trine” that will be coming into aspect soon. Expect Benjamin to be recharged and full of his good energy as we explore what lies ahead astrologically.
To register, go to PayPal at https://www.paypal.com/us/home and make your minimum $5 speaker’s donation to [email protected]. Your Zoom link and password will be emailed within 24 hours before the presentation. The event is being recorded and all registrants will receive a recording link shortly afterward.

AstroShaman” Benjamin Bernstein hosts This Week in Astrology, a Top 10 Astrology Podcast, and is a 3-time Best Astrologer Winner. He has done over 9000 Astrology, Shamanic Healing and Life Coaching sessions with a global clientele, and runs the “Awakening Plus” online spiritual support membership.

Source…the Inner Divinity emanating bliss from every cell of your body out into the world! Facets of Divine Light absorbed by every neutron and electron in an atomic awakening of our universe…that is the Christed Light…and all of this occurs inside of YOU!

Receive a Light Language transmission from the Galactic Magdalene Lineage. This powerful activation does not come through believing in anything. It does not come through a book, education or philosophy. It comes naturally through alignment with the Divine Source that is alive inside of you.

No matter what is occurring in the outer world, experience the truth of who you are as a Sovereign Divine Being of Light.

Mary Magdalene Monthly Sacred Circle
Feb 2 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
online
Mary Magdalene Monthly Sacred Circle

Every nature, every modeled form, every creature, exists in and with each other. -Mary 2:2

I invite you to commune with Mary Magdalene’s sacred mysteries for healing, personal transformation and self mastery.

Mary Magdalene’s story is shrouded in mystery. In the sacred circle, we invoke her truth, wisdom and deep love and reverence for visceral teaching, clearing and activation.

Each month we will gather to connect and commune with the essence of this visionary aspect of divine feminine. We will explore the alchemy of Mary Magdalene in relationship to her Divine attributes of mysticism, sacred sexuality, Divine adoration, surrender, faith, and unity consciousness to support the expression of your authentic self along your path of self mastery. I will offer teachings on alchemical interventions and guided meditation to invite the Divine Feminine to rise in greater ways of clarity, vibrancy and empowerment in your life.

Jesse Daniel Edwards & Band Return
Feb 18 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm
White Horse Black Mountain

Jesse Daniel Edwards is an acclaimed songwriter and radio charting artist hailing from the small mountain town of Cuyamaca, CA (pop. 60). As a child, Jesse and his 6 siblings grew up without television, internet, or significant exposure to the outside world- they went without electricity until he was age 12. He spent his time learning to sing harmony to gospel tracks and tinkering on hand-me-down instruments with his grandpa. Leaving home at 16, he spent his late teen years busking on street corners around the US and abroad. He eventually grew to perform upon the festival and university circuits full-time after a chance encounter with Al Bunetta (John Prine), sharing the stage with Morrissey, Lucinda Williams, and John Prine. His songs have been featured in radio, TV, streaming movies, video games, and 2 independent films.

He spent the lockdown working odd jobs, moving back to the American South. There, he picked up the guitar again after a near 2 year hiatus. He began reinventing his music, writing and recording in his home studio profusely, and ultimately planning to hit the stage again as the world reopened. Now he appears for a limited engagement with his 3-piece band of A list players.

Organically Divine: 3 Big Questions
Mar 2 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
online
Organically Divine:  3 Big Questions

Organically Divine
Rev. Darlene Strickland
Minister at Unity of the Blue Ridge

Unconsciously a person crafts an individual identity and personal reality. As Ram Dass said, “We all go through ‘Somebody’ training”. All the while, our Divine Identity is intact, organic, complete, and immutable. In any moment you can realize and live from your Divine Identity. You do not have to acquire your Divine Identity; you have only to mature in your experiential understanding of this essential identity and allow it to become your moment-by-moment reality.

*****

Rev. Darlene Strickland is a spiritual visionary and mystic for our times. She is an outstanding speaker and singer who has a knack for weaving spiritual wisdom and transformational practices into real life experiences.

Darlene is an openly intuitive, gay, cancer survivor, who experienced an extraordinary and powerful kundalini awakening when she lived and worked on Maui. Speaking of that experience and what followed, she said “You can’t poo-poo what’s woo-woo if it happens to you-you”.

Raised in eastern North Carolina, Darlene became uncomfortably aware of racial injustice and religious intolerance at an early age. “I was white in the rural South and I was part of the ‘right’ religious affiliation. So, I was told. But my heart knew there were no better-than or less-than people… and my soul knew we came from the one, same divine Source.”

Darlene became an Ordained Unity Minister in 2004 and previously served ministries in Kansas, Hawaii and Washington State. Prior to seminary, she served as the Music Director at Unity of the Triangle in Raleigh, N.C. She currently serves as Senior Minister at Unity of The Blue Ridge in Mills River, N.C.

Before entering seminary, Darlene was a Senior Executive in the children’s toy industry, working with BRIO Toys and TY Inc. She has a Bachelor of Science in Business Management and is a Seminary graduate of Unity Worldwide Institute.

She lives with her partner Tia and their fur-angel Ari Grace. Life is best when rendezvous with Mother Nature, family time, and sharing home cooked meals and hearty laugher are involved!

The Episcopal Church of St. John in the Wilderness: Benedictine nuns to lead Thursday evening Lenten
Mar 3 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
The Episcopal Church of St. John in the Wilderness

272311371_3088642561352244_8287620336684229845_n.jpg

All are invited to join St. John in the Wilderness for any or all of our Lenten Series sessions, to take place each Thursday evening in Lent. The evenings each have three offerings all of which are open to the public with adults and youth most welcome. You do not have to be present for all three portions of the event to participate. See below for details.

  • Evening Prayer at 6:00 in the Atrium Chapel in the Parish Hall

  • Dinner at 6:30 in the Parish Hall – RSVP required below – $8/person or $20/family of 3+

  • Program from 7:00 to 8:00 in the Parish Hall, or join via Zoom with RSVP

Our Lenten program this year will be led by the Sisters of the Community of St. Mary. These Episcopal Nuns live at their convent in Sewanee, TN and are members of a monastic movement that goes back to 1865 when their order was started in New York. The sisters will take turns sharing with us the richness of their ancient monastic way of life. Together we will learn about their Benedictine way of living that includes prayers, work, radical hospitality, rich community, accountability, and more. While many think of monks and nuns as being something restricted to the Roman Catholic Church, the Episcopal Church has a long history of monastic life that continues to influence our churches to this day.

For the first session on March 3, we will host the Prioress of the Community of St. Mary, Sister Madeleine Mary, who will travel from Sewanee to be with us. Sister Madeleine Mary has been living in religious life for over 50 years having entered the cloister after teaching middle school in New York and spending time advocating for environmental justice issues.

In the sessions following on March 10, March 17, March 24, March 31, and April 7, we will meet in person at the Parish Hall to gather for a virtual visit with other Sisters from the Order, including Sister Hannah Winkler, who made her life profession in January 2021, and Sister Elizabeth Grace, who will share on Rule of St. Benedict’s emphasis on humility. You may also participate on Zoom for any of the sessions, but we will hope you will join us in person if you can. Click here to sign up to be emailed a Zoom link.

All are also invited to join us for Evening Prayer in the Atrium Chapel of the Parish Hall at 6:00pm on each Thursday in Lent (March 3 – April 7). Dinner follows at 6:30pm in the Parish Hall. RSVP and pay for dinner by clicking the one of the boxes below by Tuesday of each week so food is not wasted. Masks will be required except when eating.

Sister Madeleine Mary will also be preaching at St. John in the Wilderness on Sunday, March 6, at the 8:45 and 11:00 services. Please join us as we journey through Lent together.

What are the Akashic Records + how does a Healing Circle work?
Mar 8 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
online

What are the Akashic Records & how does a Healing Circle work?

Hey there,
I thought it might be helpful to have a meeting about these things:

  • What are the Akashic Records?
  • How does a reading work?
  • How do the Akashic Records help you heal pain from your past?
  • How else can you use them to improve your life and find more peace, joy, confidence, and freedom? (by freedom, I mean… freedom from the past, running thoughts, negative thinking, fear, anger, shame, regrets, and releasing the past while intending the future you desire)

Honestly, if you’d told me back in 2008 that I’d be ‘reading’ the Akashic Records for myself and others, I’d have laughed. I didn’t even know what they were, and I was never interested in being an intuitive.

However, we ALL are intuitive, and whenever I provide a reading I make it clear – I am the least important person in the room. This is all about YOU and your Divine Team (the Masters, Teachers, and Loved Ones + angels, guides, past lives, and other information) who are loving you and guiding you.

If you want to learn more about the Akashic Records, how they work, and how I run a Healing Circle… join me!

This is virtual (on Zoom), so I can have an unlimited number of people on the call. Grab a drink, curl up on your couch, and join me… I’d love to meet you :)

These Episcopal Nuns live at their convent in Sewanee, TN and are members of a monastic movement that goes back to 1865 when their order was started in New York. The sisters will take turns sharing with us the richness of their ancient monastic way of life. Together we will learn about their Benedictine way of living that includes prayers, work, radical hospitality, rich community, accountability, and more. While many think of monks and nuns as being something restricted to the Roman Catholic Church, the Episcopal Church has a long history of monastic life that continues to influence our churches to this day.

For the first session on March 3, we will host the Prioress of the Community of St. Mary, Sister Madeleine Mary, who will travel from Sewanee to be with us. Sister Madeleine Mary has been living in religious life for over 50 years having entered the cloister after teaching middle school in New York and spending time advocating for environmental justice issues.

In the sessions following on March 10, March 17, March 24, March 31, and April 7, we will meet in person at the Parish Hall to gather for a virtual visit with other Sisters from the Order, including Sister Hannah Winkler, who made her life profession in January 2021, and Sister Elizabeth Grace, who will share on Rule of St. Benedict’s emphasis on humility. You may also participate on Zoom for any of the sessions, but we will hope you will join us in person if you can. Click here to sign up to be emailed a Zoom link.

All are also invited to join us for Evening Prayer in the Atrium Chapel of the Parish Hall at 6:00pm on each Thursday in Lent (March 3 – April 7). Dinner follows at 6:30pm in the Parish Hall. RSVP and pay for dinner by clicking the one of the boxes below by Tuesday of each week so food is not wasted. Masks will be required except when eating.

Sister Madeleine Mary will also be preaching at St. John in the Wilderness on Sunday, March 6, at the 8:45 and 11:00 services. Please join us as we journey through Lent together.
