ANCESTORS IN ASTROLOGY

This course is offered as Spring seasonal special. Part 1 of the course is on Monday, May 22, 4-5:30pm Pacific. Part 2 is on Monday, May 29, 4-5:30pm Pacific.

In two parts, this course teaches you how to locate your ancestors in your birth chart using Western Hellenistic astrology. You will learn to interpret what ancestral material they have passed down to you: their hurts and harms, their joy and courage, as well as their wisdom and knowledge.

This course teaches an astrological method of connecting to ancestors. It is not a reading, so you will not get a full download of ancestral messages, nor will we be channeling your ancestors directly. Rather, you will be establish a foundation to build upon for developing a deeper relationship with your ancestors and the gifts and challenges you have inherited from them.

In Part 1, we will study your known and unknown ancestors. We will use planetary condition to get a far more in-depth interpretation than would otherwise be possible. In Part 2, you will learn how to locate specific ancestors in your chart, such as great grandparents or other deceased loved ones, using the derived houses method. The two parts of the course can also be taken as stand-alone workshops. You do not need to attend both classes.

This workshop is being offered freely in honor of your healing, your ancestors’ healing, and in loving care of our descendants.
