Exquisite Attunement: The Inner Psychology of Lunar Self-States

DATE: June 23, 2018
TIME: 1:00-2:30 PM PST / 4:00-5:30 PM EST

Moon and Cancer imagery offers insight into the shifting rhythms and cautious defenses of the emotional body.  Deep attunement to this dimension of a person creates a felt sense of safety, a “you get me” feeling that makes so much possible. Yet it’s a delicate dance; we each carry ever-shifting configurations of emotional sensitivities longing for response, shown by the Moon, Cancer, the 4th house, and Squares.

If you were born with a planet conjunct one of the angles in your birth chart, you may just have the help you need. Such placements often result in hyper-expressed archetypal planetary energy. These planets march to the sound of their own drums and set their own rules often acting like a feral or unaspected planet.  Oftentimes, everyone around the native is more aware of these planetary energies than the person born with such alignments!

Have you ever asked, "What is my soul's purpose this lifetime?" Have you wondered if there is not only a deeper meaning to life but a way in which it all fits together into holistic one-ness?

How we Became Personally Responsible for ourselves. 

DATE: July 7, 2018
TIME: 9:00 AM - 11:30 AM PDT / 12:00 - 3:00 PM EDT

In this workshop, development of the Ego/Self is explained and illustrated as a birthing process. This aids in understanding the psychological concept and content of the deep Self and its “seed” of our ongoing becoming. Taking our psychological planetary tasks (Fate] and shaping them (Self awareness) is what the gift of consciousness brings. 

The Early Renaissance in Florence was a turning point in the history of Western thinking and culture – and looks forward to much in modern astrology. It was a remarkable time but more complex, contradictory, and chaotic than what we learned about in school. This course will explore some of its chaos and contradiction.

Arabic-era astrologers took ancient understandings of planetary dignity and debility full throttle and devised countless ways to determine which planet has the most say over things like profession, family, and even pregnancy. The resulting “winner” of their calculations became known as the almuten, or “governor,” of various chart topics. In this workshop, we will learn how to integrate almutens into our practice.

TIME: 9:00 - 11:00 AM PDT / 12:00 - 2:00 EDT

Are planets better behaved in some signs than others? In an opposition, what planet is most likely to win the tug of war? Are mutual receptions always nice? The key to answer these questions and many more is understanding dignities and debilities.

Instructor: Charles Obert
DATE: Begins July 29, 2018 (5 Sundays) $265
TIME:  From 9:00-11:00 pm PST 

The traditional astrology tool of dignity and debility is a powerful and nuanced way to add detail to your chart interpretation. But many astrologers do not realize how effective and useful this tool can be or they think it is simply archaic and overly complicated. Nothing could be further from the truth!

The goal of this class is to show how you can reclaim this effective tool.
