Description

An Intentional Experience of Transits, Progressions and Solar Arcs

Steven gives the evolutionary approach to transit readings, beginning with an extensive tour of each of the planets in transit.

What if transiting Saturn is heading for an opposition to your Sun? The conventional astrological response is to make the sign of the cross, utter an expletive – and to take refuge in the promise that This Too Shall Pass. In that universe of belief, we are the victims of “bad” astrological weather and the beneficiaries of “good” weather. In both cases we are passive in relation to the planets, as inert as billiard balls knocked around on the table of life.

How might we do better than that? How might we fully embody the choice-centered principles of Evolutionary Astrology? Instead of trying to predict what will happen, let’s begin to anticipate the nature of the possibilities inherent in an upcoming configuration. We will face fears and any Shadow-work honestly, but we will never clip the wings of our imaginations by looking no further than the heavy side of things. Always, we keep our eye on the prize – the lesson our soul is learning, and the easiest, most harmonious and efficient path to embodying it.

As we learn to “walk this talk” ourselves, we empower our clients and friends with the same magic. Once we move beyond fatalism and deadening prediction, we‘ve entered the heart of Evolutionary Astrology. Choices and wisdom – consciousness, in other words – become the moving force behind every transit, progression, or solar arc.

In this seminar, we will spend about half the time working on the theoretical foundations of evolutionary “prediction” and the other half applying those principles to the charts of class members drawn at random. Come prepared with curiosity – and perhaps even some anxiety – about an upcoming astrological event in your own chart. We will focus on how to prepare for it with clear understanding and positive, disciplined evolutionary intentions.
