Story of the Stars Astrology Update

Nikoleta Mavi

In Greek, Astro means stars and logy means the telling of. Astrology is the telling of, or story of the stars; it is a means to help us become in sync with the rhythms, seasons, and cycles of nature. Learning about our collective and personal astrology links us closer to our history, our ancestors and to ourselves. Nikoleta is a Cosmic Translator offering guidance from ancient wisdom. She uses Evolutionary Astrology to teach us to think in ways we haven’t been taught to think and practices the spiritual technique of Human Design.

Thai Vipassana Walking Meditation

Pat Sperry

Slow your pace, quiet your mind, and arrive in the here and now. Through the practice of mindful walking, we can gain more awareness and control over our thoughts, feelings, and actions, allowing us to respond in more constructive ways to the highs and lows of life.
