Before my daughter was a month old, we had a family astrology session with Jen Waine. I had attended Jen's yogastrology classes over the course of several years and appreciated her insight, so it felt fitting to spend some time with her exploring the ways that astrology indicated our baby might fit into our family.
Graciously Jen suggested that we might record the session to listen back later and as my daughter's first birthday approached, my husband and I decided to check in with the conversation and to see how the metaphors had come to fruition over our first year as a family of three. Prior to our session, Jen clearly spent a significant amount of time working through the birth charts of all three of us. She explained our natal sun signs, moons, and rising signs as well as the potential interaction and communication patterns between the three of us. Most precious of all were her suggestions for what our little Pisces might need from us as parents.
I appreciate the vernacular of astrology and could not ask for a better interpreter than Jen. In our community she offers yogastrology for teens, special events to mark the solstices, wedding and other ceremony officiation and so much more. Today's post was inspired by her e-newsletter, which helped me reconcile yet another sleepless full moon night at our house so thanks for that as well, Jen!
If you are interested in having a chart reading or any of Jen's other services, I highly recommend exploring her website and dropping her a note.
(from Jen's website) Jen's mission is to help people shift their anxious mindset to a more peaceful, grounded state of being. Her journey through movement, mindfulness, and spiritual practices has helped her cultivate a variety of tools that have brought her a more peaceful way of moving through the human realm which she enjoys sharing with her students and clients.
Jen grew up in NYC and began to dance at the young age of three. She saw "42nd St" on Broadway twelve times. As an adult, she fell in love with the choreography of yoga. She discovered that movement is infused with a power that transports us to the realm of joy.
In 2013 Jen became one of the first in the world to be certified in Yogastrology®.
Yogastrology® is the melding of the ancient sister practices of yoga and astrology. We look to the Sun and Moon, who illuminate the zodiac sign that they currently inhabit. We examine the "personality" or energy of those signs, their body correlations and how to align with these energies on and off the mat to experience greater ease, joy and peace.
