Why is it that some people seem to be in relationships that are doomed, while others simply open the door and Love walks in? As astrologers, we can easily explore the Post Mortem of Love, but wouldn't it be nice if we could find a formula that could treat the patient while she or he is still alive? This is way beyond "Relationships 101" (NORWAC, Seattle, 2007) length 1:16:34
Now that Saturn is fully vested in Libra's territory, we have an opportunity to take a clear look at relationships, personal commitment and all facets of love. As astrologers, we can determine an all-important thing: is it time for love? We'll look at the natal chart to find clues to personal preferences, but more important, we'll see which cycles are implicated in relationships. Is it love, lust, karma ... or just a passing fancy? (NORWAC, Seattle, 2011 length 1:13:23
Relationships go through cycles, too! Using a variety of techniques — including composite, Davison charts, affinity and synastry, combined with cycles — we will pinpoint significant cycles that define the critical points in a relationship. Gloria will use plenty of chart examples, and, of course, will invite your discussion in this process. (NORWAC, Seattle, 2008) 1:14:22
Milestone cycles are discussed, along with a focus upon the elements in the natal chart that provide clues for the types of cycles that are likely to be significant trigger points in an individual's life. We look at transits, progressions, solar arc directions, planetary patterns, and significant cosmic events. (ISAR, Chicago, 2009) length 1:17:09
An eclipse of the Sun or Moon has always drawn attention. While the mystery and suspicion surrounding eclipses has subsided, the meaning is still somewhat elusive. Join Gloria to explore the nature of the eclipses – learn about Saros Cycles, the significance of the Prenatal Eclipse, Nodal Returns, and more. Find out how and when eclipses are more relevant to your own life, and when the eclipses are more like watching a movie. Hopefully, illumination will follow! (ASC, Hartford, 2011) length 1:55:34
From the Fall 2008 until late Summer 2010, Saturn and Uranus traveled in and out of an opposition. It's one of those "Big" cycles that will have a definite impact on what's happening in the world at large, and it packs a real punch where it hits your chart. Join Gloria and explore the history of this dynamic duo in just such an aspect, and will also look into its implications from politics to your pocketbook. (NORWAC, Seattle, 2008) length 1:15:57
We have many techniques in astrology that provide excellent information about the cycles that can impact the life of an individual. But which ones to use? And when? This class covers information about transits, progressions, directions, returns, directions, and other cycles — with an emphasis on defining the differences and determining what might work best in particular circumstances. But before you go there, are you really ready to look at cycles yet? (This could be a novice level lecture — more like an introduction to forecasting.) (NORWAC, Seattle 2007) length 1:15:11
The ramifications of the high-tension of the planetary patterns involving Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune are explored.

As astrologers, we have an exceptional guidepost that lends itself to a special perspective on collective change and evolution. We look at big cycles like Jupiter square Uranus and Saturn oppose Neptune. And add a look at an eclipse with a Grand Cross – what do these patterns tell us?
