Mars Retrograde Club 2020 - Sept
Each Retrograde Club includes:
-5 group video calls
-retrograde orientation
-thematic overviews for each phase of the retrograde cycle (each meeting)
-handouts with dates and keywords
-worksheets to help you apply what you're learning to your chart and your life
-creative activities
-group discussion in the form of sharing and witnessing with some guided reflection
-support and guidance from Melanie
-surprise guest Astrologers who will share their own retrograde stories
-a one-on-one reading with Melanie, to be scheduled during the course of the program
By the end of the program you will:
-understand what a Retrograde is and how it works (if you didn't already)
-be more familiar with your own chart and how your potentials unfold in real time
-have a deeper understanding of how to work with your own potentials
-understand the basic retrograde model, which will orient you to all future retrograde cycles
-have resources that you can apply toward all future retrograde cycles
You *may* even:
-develop friendships with like-minded individuals
Every Retrograde has Five Phases
.
The second phase is when the planet slows waay down and sits on the degree of its station—when it appears to stand still and switch directions—for a matter of days if not weeks. Things start to go ‘awry’. Or—at the very least—topics governed by the planet in question become ‘noticeable’.
.
The third phase is the period of retrograde motion, when the planet backs up over the degrees it has just covered, showing us where it isn’t quite how we thought it was or giving us opportunities to reconfigure things, figure things out, or maybe just get out of our own way and take a break for a bit.
.
At the end of this period is the fourth phase, when the planet slows way down and sits in the degree of its station before heading off in direct motion, again. It mirrors phase two and bookends the retrograde period. This may be when the first clues of how things will shake out begin to show up.
.
The fifth and final phase is when the planet has turned direct, but still needs to recover all the ground it lost in its retrograde motion. So: it heads back over all of the degrees it has covered and recovered for the third and final time in this cycle. This is usually when things start to settle down and smooth out and we find our way back to the main path from whatever nice little {essential} detour we’ve just been on and can get on with our lives!
.
These are the five phases of any retrograde and this is why each of my Retrograde Clubs consists of five facilitated group meetings, via zoom. No matter which retrograde catches your fancy or aligns most closely with your chart, you can count on a group meeting for each of these phases that includes a teaching, live discussion, and several creative, self-development-oriented activities & assignments.
