I am pondering offering a class on Working with Trauma (in the Astrology chart). And I am wondering who would be interested in taking it – please let me know!
Do you work with clients (of any sort)? Are you an astrologer who is wondering how to benefit your clients who have early trauma? What about birth trauma and heavy developmental challenges? These are vital questions! And unfortunately there is not (yet) much overlap between trauma resolution and astrology consultation work.
One thought that keeps repeating (meaning I should pay attention), is to lead a Tools for a Resilient Now: Simples Exercises and Tools for Astrologers.
This would be a class that focuses more on the Autonomic Nervous system, along with teaching tools / techniques to guide clients to a more settled and resilient place. Because of its heavy focus on non-astrological topics, I would open it up to several levels of astrologers / participants. As in beginners would benefit from the majority of the material, and then if professional astrologers want to take the class, they could ask more advanced questions and we could have a brief discussion there. So complete beginners would benefit and seasoned professionals would also learn a lot. Beginners would need to understand that they will be stretched occasionally in the class.
In a typical class, we would do two or three gentle somatic exercises or techniques, there would be time for breakout groups – you get to practice amongst yourselves with an assistant. Then we come back and share and discuss questions. And there would be time for an autonomic nervous system discussion – theories and where specifically to apply certain techniques and interventions. Then if there is time, discuss astrology specific questions related to trauma.
Is this something you would be interested in? Please let me know, if I get enough interest, I would offer it in late September or early October.
For people who want to have more tools for working with clients who have trauma, this would be a great place to start. And then if there is enough interest, (and enough participants), then I could offer a more Pre- and Perinatal Astrology oriented class.
Look forward to hearing from you!
