Experiential Astrology encourages participants to inhabit the archetypal mythos and logos of the Signs, Planets, and Houses; allowing the Sky’s demarcations to speak through us.  When we approach the study of Astrology piece by piece, we slow down the information gathering to allow a deeper picture to emerge and speak to us.

Join us as we create a community of learners, connecting through our unique Natal Chart Narratives. Through contemplative journal prompts before and during the workshops, investigation of various astrological influences in the natal charts of each participant, movement/meditation, and other somatic techniques, each workshop will uncover another layer of your unique blueprint for life.

Experiential Astrology Workshops

Chiron, Saturn & North Node

In-Person & Virtual

Hosted by: Elizabeth Ulrich, LMT & Suz Fisher, LCSW

Workshop 1 - Discover Your Wounded Healer: Building Your Chiron Narrative  

4/20/24 10a-4pm

In astrology, Chiron represents our deepest wounding, and his story can bring inspiration and insight to aspects of our lives where we habitually struggle.  In this shadow-work investigation, we can also locate the medicine we need for ourselves and the larger collective around us. This workshop will provide direction and guidance for identifying your unique Chiron story, through his specific cycle in your Natal chart, and help you more fully embody your unique healing gifts.  Through embodied somatic practices, we will integrate the Knowings Chiron offers, so you can take his teachings into your daily life.

Workshop 2 - Uncover Your Inner Disciplinarian: Working with Saturn in Your Natal Astrology Chart

6/1/24  1pm-7pm

In astrology, Saturn represents a stern, but kind & loving Grandfather archetype and points us toward where we need to do hard work, be disciplined, and more fully inhabit and develop our soul’s purpose. This workshop will provide guidance and support around the ways Saturn has visited us (sometimes intensely!).  By attending to his cycle in your Natal chart, we will examine his unique message to and for you in this lifetime.  Through embodied somatic practices, we will integrate the Knowings Saturn offers, so you can take his teachings into your daily life.

Workshop 3 – Reveal your Paradox Dragon through the North & South Nodes:  Charting a Course Aligned with your Karmic Path

7/21/24 10a-4p

In astrology, our North & South Node placements represent the wisdom of our paradox patterns and clarity on what actions we need to increase and release according to our Natal Narrative. In this offering, we will provide specific guidance on navigating your relationship revealed in the “Head and Tail” of your Dragon and the way the signs/house location can be integrated into a daily life perspective.  We will integrate this gnosis with embodied somatic practices, honoring this demarcation in our Natal charts.

  • Mapping and Empowering Your Wounded Healer

    The Chiron journey is a golden thread running through the tapestry of our lives. Identifying and following it will lead to deep insights, which continue to grow stronger and more vibrant as the wisdom we acquire on the journey continues to deepen.

    In Greek mythology, Chiron was a centaur (half man, half horse) who was considered more cultured, intelligent, civilized, and kind than the other centaurs. He was known to be wise and just, and knowledgeable in medicine, plants and herbs, music, archery, and prophecy, due to a deep wound he suffered and was always seeking medicines to heal. In his quest for healing, he brought healing to his community by teaching others what he had found/learned and how to heal themselves.

    In this offering, we will examine his journey as a metaphor and mirror for ourselves. Astrologically, the planetoid body named after Chiron is an indicator of our deepest wounds, as well as where we have the greatest potential for healing ourselves/others. Because of the slow-moving speed of Chiron, his sign placement is somewhat of a generational marker, connecting us in interesting ways to those born at similar times.

    As we zoom in on each person’s unique Chiron placement, by examining his House placement in your chart, we can also discover how and where we can tap into the Chiron medicine available in our Natal Narrative. Through contemplative journal prompts before and during the workshop, investigation of the astrological natal chart of each participant, movement/meditation and other trauma-based techniques to dive deeper, we will map and build your Chiron Narrative; helping you integrate your wounded healer and empower you to more fully embrace and embody the gifts revealed through this Narrative.

    Who Is this Workshop For?

    If you have ever noticed areas in your life where you feel almost destined to repeat similar painful experiences, this workshop will bring deeper insight into those areas, as well as tools to work with this woundedness to find your deepest healing and uncover your deepest healing gifts.

    Whether you are stepping into this for the first time with no knowledge at all, or coming back to this path again with prior knowledge, this workshop will deepen your connection to yourself, your healing gifts, and your unique story.

  • In astrology, Saturn can be viewed as an indicator of our life purpose or soul purpose in this lifetime. Saturn is considered a great teacher, a disciplinarian, a task master, and its placement and movement within each person’s natal astrology chart can help build a picture of the life lessons we are here to master, and where we need to set boundaries, be responsible, and put in some hard work. Looking at the movement over time can illuminate patterns connected to these themes, and show us how to work with the opportunities for growth that are presented to us (sometimes perceived as restrictions or challenges).

    Examining the placement of Saturn by astrological house and sign, generally and also specifically for each participant, will help us discover how and where we can tap into our own unique purpose. Through contemplative journal prompts before and during the workshop, investigation of your specific Saturn placement, and poly-vagal bi-lateral (EMDR) reSourcing rituals, we will map and build your Saturn story, embody the Saturn narrative in our bodies thereby integrating insights and empowring you to embrace your purpose as revealed through this Natal Narrative.

    Who Is this Workshop For?

    Have you wondered at times if you were missing the lessons you were supposed to be getting? Felt lost in what direction to take in life? Wondered if there was really a point to all of this? Or whether you were on track or lost in the woods?

    In this workshop, we will use the placement of Saturn in your natal astrology chart, to uncover your unique life purpose or soul purpose in this lifetime and build a foundation for more fully stepping into this purpose.

    Learning to work with Saturn, rather than resisting its firm directives, can bring great rewards and success. Whether you have worked with your Saturn placement before, or have no prior knowledge of Saturn or how to work with it, this workshop will deepen your connection to yourself, your purpose, and your unique Natal Narrative.

  • In astrology, our North & South Node placements represent the wisdom of our paradox patterns and clarity on what actions we need to increase and release according to our Natal Narrative. This “shortcut” focus helps bring clarity, compassion, and connectedness to our Self. In this offering, we will provide specific guidance on navigating your relationship revealed in the “Head and Tail” of your Dragon and the way the signs/house location can be integrated into a daily life perspective. We will integrate this gnosis with polyvagal, bi-lateral ReSourcing somatic practices, assisting us in honoring this demarcation in our Natal charts.

    Who Is this Workshop For?

    Perhaps you already have a sense of your life’s purpose or calling but have struggled to manifest it in the external world. Maybe you have noticed patterns within yourself that stop you in your tracks as you pursue that purpose. These are questions that can be clarified by exploring your North & South Node relationship via your Natal Narrative’s placement. Examining the general and specific themes of each person’s karmic “dragon” lesson, we can notice when we are shrinking back into our comfort zones and find reSourced moments to reconnect with how to fully step into what we are here to master.

    ——-

    No prior astrology knowledge is necessary. In this learning space, we will learn and increase each person’s astrological insights, as we co-create space to pause with and deepen your connection to yourself, your patterns, and your unique Natal Narrative.
