ASTROLOGY 101 | A BEGINNER'S GUIDE | WITH OPTIONAL CACAO

According to astrology, one's disposition, character, and experiences in life are influenced by the constellations present at the time of one's birth, when you take your first breath. 

This class will begin with the basics, which is the foundation of astrology. This foundation is vital to begin to understand the language of the stars. As Dane Rudhyar says; “Astrology is a language. If you understand this language, the sky speaks to you.” We will begin to learn the language of the sky with this event.

What to expect:

Before we dive into the lessons, we will choose either a sacred cacao or a rose tea to open our heart chakras; a beautiful way to enter the space as we begin to gain an understanding of the maps of our birth charts. The process of learning the astrology and gaining insight into our birth chart is a sacred space as it is a vital part of our spiritual essence.

Who is this suitable for?

No prior knowledge of astrology is necessary to join us; we welcome complete beginners and those that might have some knowledge but wish to dive further into the study.

Your chart:

If you wish to have your own birth chart with you for reference as we move through the lessons (recommended), please submit your date of birth, EXACT time of birth* and location of birth prior to the event and your chart will be printed for you.

*Exact time of birth is vital to correctly cast your Ascendant sign and your moon sign.

Includes: 

Your choice of cacao or rose tea to sip whilst learning. 

About Erika:

Erika is an intuitive astrologer.  She combines the knowledge she has been acquiring about the complex nature of astrology, with connecting to the birth chart on an empathic level.

Erika's approach is to sit in ceremony with the chart and then begin to unravel the symbolism and archetypes to interpret what the cosmos is saying within the natal chart.

She believes that astrology is a tool to assist one in raising their vibration and connecting to their soul’s path.  She has spent the last two years studying at the Faculty of Astrological Studies in London and is working towards her diploma.

Erika is also a certified Reiki Level 1 practitioner and is preparing for her Reiki Level 2.

Important:

• Please note that our classes take place in our Alchemy studio downstairs. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer wheelchair access at this time.
• Please note that cacao contains theobromine which, as a stimulant, can have a similar effect to caffeine. If you are caffeine sensitive, please let us know and we can provide a smaller dose or an alternative drink, such as rose tea. We would advise to avoid ingesting cacao if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or you take any heart medication or anti-depressants as they can react with the cacao. The safety and comfort of our guests are our top priorities and we can always provide an alternative option to cacao at any ceremony. If you have any questions at all, please contact the event facilitator directly, or Fire + Alchemy.
