EMBODIED ASTROLOGY©
What is embodied astrology? In a word it is connection. As we explore the rhythms and flow of celestial forces we learn how those same forces exist in our world and within each one of us.
Through the study of astrology we begin to embrace the astrological archetypes we represent. As we make that deeper connection to self we more easily learn how to be in harmony with others and the universe.
In Introductory Astrology as well as learn the basic language of astrology students will learn about birth charts, which are our energy blueprints, in an experiential way .
To learn you are a sun sign in Aries and therefore Mars based is interesting; however to feel how comfortable you are holding Mars energy and learn how to consciously work with it takes astrology to a deeper level.
As we gain greater clarity we begin to experience the alignment and flow between our personality and our essential nature.
For those who want to further develop their understanding of astrological principles, incorporate astrology into their current career or become a professional astrologer Astrology Level II and Level III deepens the understanding of astrology, as well as how to use it as a diagnostic and counseling tool.
WHAT’S NEW! It is easier for out of town students to enroll in Astrology courses. Students will now receive a weekly on-line lesson and attend class every 2nd month for a three day weekend.
The three year, “Embodied Astrology Counseling Program”, will be offered for the last time September 2017. After that Catherine will only be offering Intermediate Astrology workshops and on-line introductory Astrology courses.
