Astrological Moon Circle with Mary Betsellie.
April 8th at 2:00-4:00 pm. FEE $25
Join us for a cozy afternoon of Moon connection and learn about the inner cycles and rhythms you were born with. As we sip on moon time tea, we will go over what the moon means in your personal astrological chart and how it is expressed in your life. Each guest will receive a personalized moon chart, including moon phase, sign and house. Mary will interpret each one in a circle setting so we can all learn from each other.
"Traditionally, the Moon was seen as a major part of the chart, and is in some traditions considered to be more important than the Sun in regards to the health of our astral body. It is only as the masculine dominant, patriarchal culture has come into full force that we have seen an emphasis placed upon the Sun sign."
Sajah Popham ~ Astro-Herbalist.
Mary began learning about astrology at a young age and started reading professionally in 2002. She incorporates astrology in all aspects of her life including work. She is a doula, placenta specialist, herbalist, doula instructor and is currently a student of traditional midwifery.
** Upon registration, please provide your birthdate, time, and place. **
