This process sets an intention for one’s lifetime, influencing virtually all facets of the incarnate’s personality and decisions. The “best efforts” mapping of the journey is depicted by one of the oldest known spiritual tools — the natal chart.

One root of many, classic astrology is a deeply introspective undertaking useful in moving us closer to mastery of self. For the determined, the journey inward offers a shift in consciousness from the egotic mind towards the soul’s consciousness and finally divine intention. Integration of these understandings offers full alignment — a point where one’s true self can be found and the greatest life realized.
