Astrology and Authenticity: Finding Yourself Through the Stars
We all know the basic premise of Astrology. Were you born between March 21st and April 19th? That means your sun sign is Aries! Or at least according to mainstream Astrology. What most people don’t know is that Astrology goes much deeper into our design than this. It’s a modality that can reveal our inherent inner dynamics and patterns, as well as our path to healing and growth. And it’s an ancient practice. From Babylonian skywatchers to Greek philosophers to indigenous peoples across the world, our curious desire to understand the cosmos and our place in it is somehow embedded in our DNA. So what do these age-old interpretations of Astrology really offer? Is there more to the sky than meets the eye? How do the stars tell your story? In what ways can you apply Astrology to live a more authentic life? Join me for a 60-min workshop on the foundations of Astrology. I’ll introduce you to a new (actually very old) type of Astrology that’s connected to the stars. We’ll dive into the origin of this ancient practice and explore how & why this tool can be an amazing aid for discovering who you really are. Free; 3pm to 4pm; Zoom; register to get the link
