Wow, that was a wonderful read and a generous teaching. It has been over three decades since I first began to use astrology as a tool in my own herbal work. It was part of my training but when I was reading this I realized that all the initial readings and interpretations of my own natal chart were done by my teacher, a wonderful astrologer in her own right. But, you know, I accepted so many things without really experiencing them first-hand as my own truth. Backing up and taking a fresh look at my natal chart has been eye-opening, especially from my 63-year-old point of view rather than my 28-year-old self. I've done all the first explorations of Mercury, Venus, and Mars, and I plan to use the prompts in my journal to further unearth some of my unconscious self-sabbotaging habits. (Looking at you, Mars in Cancer in the 5th, flowing retrograde and opposing my natal Sun in Cap!) Thank you!!💚
I am excited to read this, Leenie! And haha, Mars has set up camp in Cancer for a while, and sure is prompting us to explore our feelings and origin stories, I have been feeling this, too.
