Sensible Synastry 16-17 Nov 2024 (Serbian/English)
I will be presenting a two day intensive course on Synastry on the 16th & 17th of November in collaboration with the Astrobalans school of astrology in Serbia. My presentation will be translated into Serbian during the live online event, so this course can be attended by both English and Serbian speakers.
It may seem to some that this process of constant translation from English to Serbian will dilute the experience for those fluent in English only (or Serbian only for that matter), but in my experience this type of situation actually results in more carefully and deliberately formulated thoughts. The pace is slowed down somewhat, and that can be a good thing. It gives time to reflect on and assimilate the information. Each brick is placed more economically and firmly.
The astrology of human relationship dynamics is one of the most fascinating and useful of astrology’s many practical applications, and yet it is also one of the most complex branches of astrology. There are many common pitfalls that can cause people to form quite a distorted and lopsided picture of the possibilities and natural tendencies of a given relationship.
In this intensive crash course we’ll explore this topic in detail. To begin with, we’ll learn to identify how each individual approaches human relationship and human interaction. This is a key first step that is too often overlooked in our eagerness to analyze how the charts of two people interact and combine. In many relationships the real challenges lie in the individual patterns rather than the lack of harmonious inter-chart connections.
Then there is the question of how we approach chart comparison. I’ll be sharing with you certain tried and tested methods that will help you to identify and give emphasis to what is really important. Certain specific relationships between the Sun, Moon, Ascendant and Venus form the bedrock of a relationship’s potential for meaningful connection. Without certain basic channels that allow for an exchange of thoughts and feelings it is unlikely that two people will find each other interesting and accessible, and they are unlikely to form a lasting bond. On the other hand, when these basic channels are present to a high degree, there is an enduring potential for sharing experiences in a meaningful way.
Finally, we’ll delve into the rich topic of the cycles of and rhythms of relating. Relationships aren’t static; they’re always changing and evolving just as we are individually. Astrology can help us to understand the seasons and tides that affect our relationships. These cycles and rhythms range from certain days in every month when we’re likely to be more or less able to experience closeness with another, to once in a lifetime milestones that mark major developments, including the beginning or ending of a relationship.
Although we’ll give a lot of consideration in this course to the astrology of romantic relationships, the principles and methods that will be presented will be applicable to a wide range of human interactions. We’ll even take a look at how we can work with astrological cycles in the context of group dynamics and whole families.
The material presented in this course will for the most part be based on principles of Western astrology, but we’ll be taking a few hints from Vedic astrology (such as the use of the Chandra Lagna and Surya Lagna) to deepen and enrich our understanding.
