🌙 Astrology 101: Understand Your Signs & Your Life Path with Gena
A beginner friendly introduction to astrology that helps make sense of natal charts without overwhelm. The session slows the subject down and frames it as a symbolic language, a map for awareness, and a tool for self understanding rather than prediction, fear, or fate. Expect a calm, supportive atmosphere that builds orientation and confidence instead of rote memorization. You will explore what a natal chart is, what the symbols represent, and practical ways to find information without getting lost. The class breaks astrology into three essentials: planets as the what or function, signs as the how or style, and houses as the where or life area. With that framework in place, topics include the order of the zodiac with a brief sidereal context, the Big Three of Sun, Moon, and Ascendant, the difference between personal and outer planets and why some matter more in daily life, the clarity of Whole Sign Houses, and how to read chart layouts whether displayed as a wheel or a list. By the end, participants can identify the planets in a chart, confidently locate signs and houses, describe placements such as having the Moon in Libra in the 11th house, and approach astrology as a language of symbols rather than fixed outcomes. It suits anyone who is new, wants understanding without overwhelm, prefers a grounded approach without fear based narratives, and is ready to build a solid foundation. The aim is simple... learn to read the map and leave feeling oriented, calm, and empowered.

Rio Vista Community Park🌙 Astrology 101: Understand Your Signs & Your Life Path with Gena
Guided by Gena, this beginner friendly introduction to astrology clears up the confusion around natal charts and offers a steady way to get oriented. If charts have felt intimidating, this session slows everything down and treats astrology as a symbolic language, a map for awareness, and a practical tool for self understanding rather than prediction or fate. The atmosphere is relaxed and encouraging, focused on building confidence instead of rote memorization or overload. You will explore what a natal chart actually is, what the symbols stand for, and how to locate the information you need without getting lost. The framework centers on three simple building blocks: planets describe what is happening, signs show how it is expressed, and houses point to where it plays out in life. With that foundation, the chart starts to click. Topics include the order of the zodiac with a light sidereal context, the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant, the difference between personal and outer planets and why that matters day to day, the clarity of whole sign houses, and how to read chart layouts whether you prefer the wheel or a list. By the end, you will be able to spot the planets in a chart, confidently identify signs and houses, and say it in plain language, for example naming your Moon in Libra in the eleventh house. Expect to leave seeing astrology as a symbolic practice rather than fixed fate and feeling steady, clear, and empowered. This session suits newcomers, the curious who want understanding without overwhelm, and anyone seeking a grounded approach free of fear driven narratives and built on a strong, gentle foundation.
