The Moon: Emotional Needs & Coping Skills
Each and every person on the planet has developed a way of dealing with emotional stress.  These “Coping Skills” have been developed over many lifetimes and are re-stimulated in the early life.  The sign, house, rulership, and aspects to the Moon, as well as the sign and rulership of the fourth house, give us a fairly complete picture of their emotional coping skills.  These skills help us “get through” life, but they do not, however, bring us a true sense of emotional well being.  Learn how to create emotional well being in your life and help others to do the same.

From Disillusionment to Inspiration: Neptune in the Natal Chart
Neptune covers so much ground ~ escapism, faith, fantasy, confusion, visions & illusions, just to name a few.  Students are often mystified and unclear about how to actually apply this often illusive planet into the chart.  In this workshop, we’ll look at Neptune from all of its angles, and moving it through the houses and applying it in a way that makes sense.

Changing the Narrative: Mercury/3rd House
With the Pluto/Uranus squares starting in 2012, reality may feel like it is spinning beyond our control. . . or maybe the illusion that we have control will be cracking.  Changing the narrative is one of the most powerful tools we have for establishing healthy control in our lives. We all have many stories, thousands of them in fact . . . stories that shape our perceptions of the world around us, and of ourselves.  This internal narrative informs the meaning we give to everything. Most of the time we don’t have a conscious clue as to what those stories are and how much power they have on our lives. As we move forward into a new era, we are forced to look at old mind-sets and opinions that no longer serve us in a healthy way. Important transits to Mercury and the 3rd house are prime times for shifting or changing these inner narratives.
