Astrology Basics Workbook

Your Full Natal Chart

welcome

You will need your own natal chart, including your Chiron placement. This is going to be a very broad overview so that you can then go explore your chart more deeply. 

Astrology was my first toe dip into the mystical. I think it is for a lot of us because it’s easily accessible and just a part of the fabric of our society. The main things we usually learn about is our Sun sign.

Some of my more recent teachers are Natalia Benson and Jennifer Freed. AstroKit is a great resource, I also love Chani Nichols, Aliza Kelly and Christopher the.astromedium. There are so many amazing astrologers on Instagram.

I am by no means an astrologer. Astrology is intricate and takes a long time to really learn. So, if you are really into astrology or an astrologer, please forgive any inaccuracies! I am bringing forth my understanding with the intention that it helps you want to explore astrology more deeply to help you understand yourself.
