Why learn astrology?

Join Holisticism and astrologer Emmalea Russo for a virtual workshop that’ll empower you to read your own natal chart.

You’ve heard all about astrologers and natal charts and perhaps you’ve even had your natal chart read or delved into the depths of astro.com searching for planetary answers to life’s more ineffable questions. But perhaps astrology still sounds and feels like a foreign language to you.

When we learn to read our natal chart (and the charts of others), we get much more than heightened insights into ourselves and others. We plug into the earth’s aura.

The natal chart is a snapshot of the sky the moment you landed earth-side but it’s also a snapshot of a moment in time – a moment which connects you to the cosmos. I might even go so far as to say that the natal chart, like all moments, contains all past and future happenings. It’s a seed, an auric egg, and an endlessly unfolding story about your place the universe.

Astrology is an art and a science. It’s also a language and as such, it’s a way of reading, seeing, and thinking. When we learn the planetary lingo, our daily lives get imbued with the cosmic. We suddenly think in cosmological terms and move through the world feeling connected to something tangible and vast.

“When I first learned to read natal charts, long before I knew I’d become an astrologer, I felt both empowered and humbled,” say Emmalea. Learning the intricacy of a natal chart is a seriously lovely gateway into the whole world of astrology. Hint: It’s deeper than you think. Magical and grounding, chaotic and cosmic, punk rock and ancient, astrology is my favorite way to connect to the galactic identity. So, perhaps the better question is, why not learn astrology? The cosmos, which is both your personal identity and an incomprehensible vastness, awaits.

In this workshop, you’ll learn:

• astrological meanings of the zodiac and the birth chart
• the energetics of the natal chart
• what Emmalea looks at in sessions
• a debriefing on the meanings of the planets, signs, and houses
• how to get an immediate energetic read on a chart
• key components in natal chart interpretation
• the natal chart as an energetic blueprint and language for expansive thinking, imagination, and grounding

This is a virtual workshop. You’ll be able to ask Emmalea questions in real time about your natal chart.
