Everything in your chart serves a high purpose. That’s what you are striving to reach.
But everything has a potential dark side too. The empowering process of not being controlled by those lower responses starts with simply recognizing them. Even Venus can get you in trouble — we won’t just be looking at the usual suspects: Pluto, the Moon’s south node, and so on, even though they will be “the guests of honor.”
Lila invites you to come celebrate Halloween with Ricky Williams and Steven Forrest in a classic way: by facing your own shadow. We promise you’ll leave this workshop with a sense of spiritual encouragement. It’ll be real and honest, but it’s not about shaming anyone!
If you’ve ever wanted to sit with Steven in the landscape that has shaped so much of his work — and to explore astrology in person with Steven and Ricky together — this is the weekend for you. We would love to have you with us.
*SPACE IS LIMITED: Because of the subject matter of this retreat, attendance is limited to 60 people.
Over four days, we’ll gather in Borrego Springs, California, the Dark Sky town Steven calls home. Closest airports are Palm Springs and San Diego.
