The Sun, Moon, and Ascendant
with Rob Stewart
”Astrology is just a finger pointing at reality” - Steven Forrest
From the astrological perspective, the moment of your birth provides archetypal insight into the essence of who you are. The Sun, Moon, and Ascendant may provide guidance related to your life journey, self-nurturing, and your instinctual nature. In this workshop we’ll cover the basics of what these archetypes truly mean according to their sign, house, and degree. In this introductory course you will learn how to read the basics of a birth chart, and gain a deeper astrological understanding of yourself and others.
There are no prerequisites for the class. Participants are encouraged to email their birth information (date, place, time) to the instructor, Rob at rob@innercenterastrology.com, prior to the start of the class. He will provide a copy of your birth chart in class. It would be optimal to have your exact birth time available (documented on your birth certificate) but is not necessary.
