ASTRO-COACHING SCHOOL
For aspiring/professional mystics, therapists and healers looking for astrologically informed coaching skills to accelerate their practice or help them gain the confidence to start one. This is also for non-practitioners: artists, activists or astrology lovers seeking a group-coaching community. Each participant will engage with this curriculum by resourcing their own astrological chart, planet by planet...
Mysticism combined with the practical life skills for being human.
This is trauma-informed and somatically based astrology that offers a solid understanding of how to help a client/chart move through tough times, access more resiliency and open up to their superpowers.
We meet bi-weekly for three months, each with 4.5 hours of live-online sessions. There will also be an additional practicum week and six optional community care gatherings. All sessions are recorded for absentees.
CURRICULUM
-
MODULE 1: SUN & MOON
☀ PURPOSE IN A CHART, CLIENT ETHICS
How might we help usher a client towards their authentic self? How do we look at a chart to discern it’s center of gravity or life purpose and honor the ways our clients are inspired to express that? We seek to use astrology as a co-creative guide to empower our lives. We will discuss the importance of the natal SUN, divine will vs. free will and cover coach/client ethics that are essential for impactful healing work.
☾ MINDFUL SELF-COMPASSION, ATTACHMENT THEORY & SAFETY
We will understand what it means to really feel our feelings and have our own backs as we move through moments of suffering. We will consider the concept of SAFETY, and ways to nourish a secure landing pad in ourselves and others through the gifts of the natal moon.
-
MODULE 2: MERCURY
☿ THOUGHT WORK, MANAGING THE MIND
One of the most important parts of well-being is peace of mind. We dig deep into thought work tools, how to identify and transform painful thoughts into a more life-giving reality. This goes beyond positive affirmations, this is a lab for building a deep relationship to how your mind works, and the music it plays with your nervous system. We will consider the role of Mercury in a chart, in mental health and how to wield its craftiness for ourselves and others. We will be spending an entire module on this topic alone, learning key tools in Mind-Body Coaching, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Thought Models.
-
MODULE 3: VENUS & MARS
♀ SOMATIC PARTS WORK, POLYVAGAL THEORY, EMBODIED INTIMACY
We will cultivate wisdom around eroticism, sex and gender expression. We will consider VENUS through Pleasure Activism, Somatic Parts Work and Polyvagal Theory. We will also discuss the importance of a values-driven life and cover some necessary somatic-based tools for coaching both couples and individuals through relationship stress.
♂ DESIRE, TRUE WILL & FAILURE TOLERANCE
We will dive deep into the role of Mars as a guardian for helping us ask for what we want, hold the high sensation of failure and keep trying. We will talk about anger management, how to assert ourselves, clear false desires and create a life we are actually excited about.
-
MODULE 4: JUPITER & SATURN
♃ SELF-HYPNOSIS, BELIEF & GOAL SETTING
Our minds are story-making machines. We will learn how to identify limiting beliefs and transform their shapes and sizes into a more spacious reality. Ultimately, we want to empower our clients to harness their imagination towards the version of themselves they want to be. We will also discuss what healthy goal setting looks like in a productivity-obsessed culture.
♄ PRACTICAL LIFE SKILLS + FEAR
We will focus on the tangible tools for managing our time and space. Whether its procrastination, a scattered calendar or a neurodivergent flow, we discuss healthy discipline and boundaries. We will also cover concepts around FEAR, and take inventory of what holds us back from expressing ourselves fully.
-
MODULE 5: URANUS & NEPTUNE
♅ HABIT CHANGE, COMMUNITY & FUTURING
The brain is economical - it automizes anything that is repeated and makes it an unconscious habit. We need Uranus to wake us up from our sleep. We will learn the tools for effective habit change and ways we can interrupt, surprise and open up a more liberated version of ourselves. We will also discuss interdependency, collective liberation, community and the importance of nonlinear time loops, ie: learning from our future selves.
♆ SPIRTUALITY, ENERGETIC BOUNDARIES & SURRENDER
We will learn how to move through confusion, the art of SURRENDER and the practice of Tonglen. We will also dig into essential tools for energetic boundaries - with people and the spirit-world. How to clear/protect your energy before and after sessions or any engagement - as well as the importance of radical rest.
-
MODULE 6: PLUTO & THE NODES
♇ SHADOW WORK, GRIEF & TRAUMA
One of the most important aspects of healing is to build a relationship with the unconscious mind and the somewhat roundabout ways it manifests things in our lives. As Jung says: “If we don’t make the unconscious conscious, it will rule our lives and we will call it fate.” We will learn important tools for accessing these more unknown parts of ourselves. We will discuss the role of astrological NODES in a chart and meditate on mortality, grief and the essential tools for trauma-informed coaching.
-
PRACTICUM WEEK
・゚✧ COACH & BE COACHED
We will be doing a lot of group and one-on-one exercises during each module - yet this serves as an opportunity to practice an official coaching session with each other, now with all these tools under our belt. We will not be meeting on our usual Saturday session, instead each student signs up for TWO 30-min slots during the week. One to coach and another to be coached. This is optional.
-
MODULE 7: SYNTHESIS
・゚✧ ASTRO-HEALING & INTUITIVE BUSINESS SKILLS
We review essential astro-coaching tools that help enhance the charts ability to endure life’s ups and downs. We will discuss how to start-up or sustainably run an intuitive, conscious business under current post-capitalist realities. This is a final launch pad for aligning with your values and putting yourself out in the world with integrity. We will end our time together with a community breathwork session, cover any final q+a and celebrate.
What you’ll learn:
✧ Deep insight about your own astrology chart, and how to ground its archetypal stories into practical everyday habits.
✧ Ability to guide yourself and others to be with their life. This work is both process-oriented and action-focused. We will learn how to hold space for the truth of the present moment and build self-trust to move towards a future vision.
✧ An eye for identifying key themes in an astrology chart and the ability to pair your intuition with potent questions and coaching tools.
✧ Trauma-informed ways to unwind the nervous system and authentically embody what excites us.
✧ The tools to compassionately address behavioral roadblocks and the subtle art of transmuting them.
✧ The confidence to ethically hold space as a 1:1 practitioner and/or community member.
✧ A nourishing community experience, a hub of radical friends to process the intensities of the world with.
