Event Description:
Most of us have parts of our lives that give us trouble. In astrology, we explore afflicted planets as symbols for these struggles.
Each planet has an essential nature that it wants to express and a role to play in shaping our lives. Each sign can support or inhibit our ability to connect with different aspects of a planet’s nature. A planet in the sign of its detriment can be especially difficult to relate to, while a planet in its fall can vex us with confusion and uncertainty.
Planets can face further challenges when they occupy the 2nd, 6th, 8th, or 12th house, when they form conjunctions, squares or oppositions with Mars or Saturn, or when they share a sign with the nodes.
There might be a feeling that these beleaguered planets refuse to get with the program or are too battered and bruised to play the roles we need them to. During this gathering you will learn how to identify problem planets in a chart and connect them with the real-life issues they represent.
But what do we do once we identify a difficult planet? What can we do other than resign ourselves to fate?
Difficulties in a birth chart can in many ways mirror the Kingdom in turmoil we are introduced to at the beginning of the Legend of King Arthur. Like the sword in the stone, with some effort, it is possible to unlock the entrapped planet’s power. Planetary remediation gives us a set of tools to unshackle the planet and integrate its missing power into our lives.
Kyle will explain how to apply different remedial practices to each of the 7 traditional planets and how to troubleshoot specific issues that diminish a planet’s capacity to work in your favor.
There are a wide range of remedial tools and protocols available to address just about any planetary configuration, ranging from more practical and intuitive approaches to more ritual and magic based practices. You will walk away with the core building blocks necessary to develop your own remedial practices, drawn from Hellenistic, Medieval, Modern Western and Ayurvedic sources.
Like pulling the Sword from the Stone, planetary remediation is a demonstration of Sovereignty, a process of proclaiming to ourselves and to the cosmos our right to exercise power over the way our lives unfold. While we all face challenges and have our own monsters to slay, we can equip ourselves with the tools and weapons to face them and empower ourselves to enact real and meaningful change in our lives.
