Program:  The Pantheon of the Planetary Archetypes: A Workshop With Richard Tarnas

Saturday, September 26, 2026, 1:00PM - 4:00PM EST

This program WILL BE RECORDED.

In this workshop, we will draw on these basic principles to explore the crucial dimension of insight that emerges through the study of the planetary aspects—the various alignments or angular relationships between two or more planets relative to the Earth. The archetypes never act alone but always do so in ever-shifting combinations with each other. It is here, in the study of birth charts, personal transits, and world transits, that we see the complex archetypal dynamics in our lives that are associated with these combined planetary energies. During our time together, I will draw on vivid illustrations from psychology and psychotherapy, cultural biographies, history, and the arts, displaying all the planetary archetypes in action.
