Class 1. Introduction to the quadrant framework of astrology<\/b><\/p>\n
The zodiac is subdivided in four quadrants, that are an equivalent to the four seasons.\u00a0The quadrants are the foundation of the astrological language and provide a crystal clear structure to the whole chart.\u00a0Each quadrant symbolizes a different way of being and relating to life:<\/p>\n
First Quadrant<\/b>\u00a0(houses 1-2-3): Planets in this quadrant will deal with the issue of being a physical body. Also issues of what it means to have a specific vital energy, needs and survival tools.<\/p>\n
Second Quadrant<\/b>\u00a0(houses 4-5-6)\u00a0 The life task here is how to be part of a tribe or family. How can we unfold our innate personality within a social environment that has its own particular culture?<\/p>\n
Third Quadrant\u00a0<\/b>(houses 7-8-9) This quadrant concerns close relationships and projects that may take us out of our family or tribe. It is the quadrant of personal choices.<\/p>\n
Fourth Quadrant<\/b>\u00a0(houses 10-11-12)\u00a0 This quadrant brings us face to face with the results of our decisions. Planets here relate us to our social, political and natural environment. They connect us to the wider world and even the universe.<\/p>\n
Class 2.\u00a0<\/b>The Sun in the signs and quadrants<\/b><\/p>\n
The sun is the only star in our solar system and the only star in the natal chart. It is the male luminary that symbolizes the heart of our personality and reveals the way we act within a social environment. The sign of the zodiac that the sun is in shows the characteristics of our personality. The location of the sun in the quadrants shows whether we primarily relate to ourselves, the family, partners or the Zeitgeist in order to define who we are.<\/p>\n
Class 3.\u00a0<\/b>The Moon in the signs and quadrants<\/b><\/p>\n
The moon is the female luminary. It reveals the way we feel and create inner connections with others. Its zodiac sign shows the way we nurture ourselves and others. Its position in the quadrants shows what we need to connect with in order to feel safe.<\/p>\n
Class 4.\u00a0<\/b>The Ascendent sign<\/b><\/p>\n
The ascendant (rising sign) and its ruler are the most individual aspects of our chart. The ascendent reveals our personal life task, the \u201craison d\u2019etre\u201d for this life. If we do not live and express this task, our life becomes meaningless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
