| August 11th ~ 20th, 2008 "Celestial Roots" with Steven Forrest and Melanie Reinhart |

Life changes us. The realities we actually experience cannot be captured by static astrological definitions. The Universe is dynamic and participatory. So it is in astrology, and also within the soul which astrology mirrors. A lively, soul-centered approach to astrology breathes and grows. It allows the unexpected, the whimsical, the poetic. The heart is touched.
Come explore this kind of living astrology in mystical Bali with Melanie Reinhart and Steven Forrest. They share a commitment to a spiritual approach to astrology that is also psychologically grounded, and both enjoy exploring soul work through the medium of creativity and art.
They are astrologers of long experience in consulting and teaching within the modern tradition. Both are committed, not only to honoring the metaphysical traditions that are astrology's roots, but also to integrating the new, emerging reality of the solar system - asteroids,Centaurs, Kuiper belt objects.
Cost $800~$1,700 USD (airfare not included). Work scholarships and discounts for young astrologers.

Mystic Bali offers a nine day residential Beginners Course in the Art of Tarot. We will concentrate on the Mythic Tarot, a deck which Juliet Sharman-Burke co-created with astrologer and Jungian analyst Liz Greene, which uses Greek mythology to amplify and elucidate the archetypal meanings of each of the 78 tarot cards. We will also look at other traditional decks, and will examine the historical background of the ancient cards.
While the course is for beginners but it will undoubtedly also prove useful for those who have knowledge of the tarot but wish to have an opportunity to develop a deeper and more profound understanding of this fascinating and mysterious subject. What better place to embark on a mythic journey than in the magical mystical land of Bali?
Our study of the tarot will generally take up the mornings with the afternoons being spent being exploring the joys and wonders of Bali.

Two of the most vivacious, charismatic and brilliant astrologers in the field today will be circling the planet, (Michael flying West and Darby East), in order to touch down and meet on the magical, mysterious island of Bali.
Here they will convene in a beautiful traditional pagoda set in the middle of the lush and verdant ricefields, and with those lucky enough to join them they will set out on an exciting astrological journey This is a "not to be missed" event suitable for both the most serious professional practitioner and the budding astrology student.
Why are we here? What are we doing?
All of us are born into the world with centuries of lives woven into our beings. As living seeds grow in fertile wombs, our ancestors meet and mix the genetic material that becomes our own. We are born and take our first breath and our birthchart is a picture of that moment. It is also a picture of the power and potential of our lives - and the struggles and limitations within which we will forge those lives.
Is there some mysterious purpose for our landing in one particular family? Whether we chose it or not, one fact remains: The horoscope describes with uncanny accuracy our early life on Earth and the situations, circumstances and events which form our vision of reality, including the gifts we are given and the damage that is done.
How much can we change and how much must we accept? That is the purpose of this workshop.
Cost $800~$1,700 USD (airfare not included). Work scholarships and discounts for young astrologers. |
