Astrology,
Conform or Rebel?

Faye Blake

  • Using astrology, we will look at the planets representing freedom and responsibility to discover how they can help us develop these themes positively. Saturn represents structure, borders and boundaries, authority and rules. Working negatively, Saturn blames and takes no responsibility for life. How can we turn this around?

    We will also do the same for Uranus – the planet of awakenings, truth, independence, rebelliousness resistance and freedom. Uranus can also work negatively to give disruption and shocks. However, we need him to help bring about change.

    The Sun is crucial in a horoscope and shows your vocation. Faye will discuss why this is important for being aware of who you really are and what the world is waiting for you to do.

  • The tools are all astrological. One is the personal horoscope. The other is planetary cycles, which we all live under. They show cosmic timing and answer the question: what is good to do now?

  • Together we will look at how this works at a collective level but also for you on a personal level. Mixing these astrological archetypes – Saturn and Uranus - gives responsible changes and breakthroughs. New innovative structures at all levels can emerge. What will be your contribution? To help you Faye will look at your own horoscope. In order to do so, she will need your birth details: date, time and place of birth.

Unfolding the Path of the Soul
Zelda Hall

  • We come to earth with a blueprint. A path of the soul. At first we 'grow down' into our physical being and life on earth. Then we 'grow up' letting go of what no longer serves us.
    Our soul path reveals itself in different ways. Through dreams, body symptoms and sensations, and encounters with humans and more-than-human others.
    In our journey together we will unfold our soul path with careful attention, curiosity, compassion and playfulness.
    We will discover what it has to tell us about the gifts we bring to the world.

  • dreamwork, bodywork, guided visualisations, movement, drawing and a mini-vision quest.

  • While we do have a blueprint, and an acorn can only grow into an oak, the more we are aware of our unique soul path, the more we have the freedom to live according to our deepest truth and we are less influenced by desires for approval or fear of not belonging.
    At the same time, we learn to take responsibility for the gifts we bring to the world through our own conscious development and unique path.
