Lunar Zodiac Series

Tap into archetypal messages of the moon through the zodiac signs

Course Summary


The Moon sets the tone of the day. When we follow lunar astrology, the moon gives us a little flavor from different seasons through what sign she is in. Every lunar cycle is like a mini solar year and this course will help you tap into the elemental shifts to and access the moon’s changing mood with more ease.

Of course there are many factors that go into how we feel, and knowing the sign that the moon is in can help us get in touch with the themes of our emotional self. Something I love about lunar astrology is that it expands our vocabulary and emotional intelligence!

Astrology is a complex language and if you are here you probably want to be able to speak and understand with more fluency! It's so satisfying to understand what people are saying about the moon being in a certain sign and even develop your own relationship with lunar astrology. It's encouraging to know that what you learn about lunar astrology you can translate to the other planets and cycles as well.

Over the years, students have told me I have a special gift for making complex things relatable and easy to understand. These lessons and audios will help you keep on track to notice the shifts of the moon’s flow through fire to earth to air to water and back again.

When I first became interested in the astrology of the moon about eight years ago, I didn’t know where to begin or how to know what sign the moon was in. I created the course I wish I could have found towards the beginning of my journey. This is a go-to course for learning about lunar astrology and deepening your relationship with the moon and the archetypes of each sign. Whether you are new to lunar astrology or just want a fresh perspective on how to connect with the moon throughout the cycle, these distilled transmissions will help you develop your own fluency with this symbolic lunar language in no time.

This has been so eye opening for me. Have learned so much that helps me better understand the frequency of mood shifts. Helps me in letting go that something may be “wrong” when mood seems to change for no reason. Loved the information you shared and will continue using these materials you created for us. -LZS PARTICIPANT

This course has welcome lessons to help orient complete beginners to the order of the signs as well as the elements and modalities of the zodiac.

This course is designed to bring more confidence and joy to your astrological studies.

Many people promise lifetime access to online courses. Lifetime can mean many things and sometimes it's not helpful to have open ended access because it gets relegated into the zone of "someday" which usually means never. Periodically I will run the course "live" and you are welcome to join in! As long as the course is active on the site you will have access, which is a year (and in some cases more) from purchase date.
