Mapping the Inner Sky

Evolutionary astrology integrates ancient metaphysics and modern psychology. In the light of that fusion, even something as simple as “being a Gemini” takes on far deeper meaning. The symbols no longer simply describe you. Instead they speak clearly and challengingly of your path through life—and of its pitfalls. Freedom and choice dominate the system. Symbolism is read in an open-ended way, with a guiding spiritual purpose underlying each configuration however vexing it might seem. Nothing is inherently static or stuck. In the light of the idea of reincarnation, every planet and point in the chart represents a pre-existing dilemma, far older than your birth certificate. Each one also promises a possible resolution of that dilemma. In practice, evolutionary astrology depends upon the dynamic interaction of two simultaneous perspectives. First, we learn to read “the chart behind the chart,” which is to say, we grasp the predicament of the soul based on unresolved prior-life experiences Second, we use a more familiar astro-psychological approach in order to understand the present personality—but we interpret that personality and its dramas as a tool which the soul is using in order to achieve its higher evolutionary aims. As we take our conventional "delineations" into this evolutionary context, we move beyond "description" into "prescription."

If you are completely new to astrology, we encourage you to prepare for this class by internalizing the astrological basics as presented in Steven’s first book, The Inner Sky: How to Make Wiser Choices for a More Fulfilling Life, which is available from www.sevenpawspress.com. All are welcome, but we will assume that you have some familiarity with the signs, planets and houses.
