In many cases, these cycles are also reflected in major events and transformations that leave a lasting mark on history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this lecture, we will learn how to use solar and lunar eclipses as tools to forecast major life events. We will also explore ways to track the unfolding of these events through the Saros Cycle, the Metonic Cycle, and the analysis of planetary transits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A practical and in-depth approach that will allow for an understanding of how these celestial cycles interconnect, revealing fundamental time patterns for astrological interpretation and forecasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Biography<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rod Chang has been studying astrology for over thirty years and has spoken at various international conferences in Poland, the United Kingdom, Portugal, China, Japan, and Australia.
