Who fancies a short side-quest away from the connection between our mental health and planetary heath today? 

Although we won’t be going far, because it’s all connected of course 

To help answer a suprisingly amount of questions I’ve received following an astrologically-themed presentation for the Work That Reconnects Network earlier this year, today we’ll be talking about the connection between astrology, deep ecology, and the Work That Reconnects and how they might help us in these times of extraordinary unravelling. 

All three are languages of relationship. 

All three are languages of nature. 

All three are enormously misunderstood

All three get my dad rolling his eyes, muttering into his beard, and changing the subject**

I’ve been drawing on archetypal and Hellenistic astrology in my work and personal practice for a while. Due to increased curiosity I know I’m not the only one who can see the immense power of being able to place ourselves in larger rhythms and cycles right now, and the insight that comes with seeing the world through new and ancient eyes.

Join me as we have a quick spin through: 

• Why astrology is a language of nature
• How it connects with the Spiral of the Work That Reconnects
• How we can see Jupiter in a river, Saturn in a tree and Venus is right there in that blossom
• Why astrology has been dismissed, mocked, and ridiculed (by whom and for what, one might ask?)
• How astrology re-enchants the world and why that makes it exceedingly dangerous to our economy (I use the word “mortally”)
