The soul’s journey is a topic that is explored in evolutionary astrology. Therapies that focus on current life issues can be effective in helping us in the here and now, or tracing trauma and blocks back to childhood and even our experience in the womb.
Evolutionary astrology takes things deeper to glean information about past lives and past traumas from the birth chart. Working with Pluto, Uranus and the Lunar nodes can help shed light on past life experiences.
I am currently working with this in my own life and chart and reading “Healing The Soul: Pluto, Uranus and the Lunar Nodes” by Mark Jones… an excellent study in my opinion.
In the chapter ‘Putting Trauma Into context’, Mark says,
From the new perspective of a truly evolutionary astrology allied with Transpersonal Therapy we can see that trauma is merely the re-flowering of a karmic pattern, memory or unresolved issue within the subtle mind, the deeper unconscious. This pattern is a knot that we carry within the thread of our consciousness as it existed in previous forms, prior to birth, and as it can exist again after death.
It was inevitable that my astrology journey would take me here. Over the years I have also gratefully gained a lot from Jeffrey Wolf Green’s School of Evolutionary Astrology.
Going forward I know that working with astrology in this way and in tandem with shamanic techniques will be a powerful tool and resource.
