THE ASTROLOGER’S FORECASTING TOOLKIT SERIES
A Solar Return is more than the chart for your birthday. It’s, if you want, the rebirth of your Sun, a moment in which the sky starts to draw the myth, archetypes and experiences that you will face in that year. A Solar Return reminds us that we have our own personal calendar and our own personal year. Each year, your Sun ventures on a new journey. And thus the Solar Return becomes a kind of omen or oracle for the story that is asking to be lived. Clare Martin, Patron of the Faculty, once described to me the Solar Return Chart as a symbolic message rather than just flat predictions. She said it was an invitation, not a verdict.
In this webinar, we will begin with the tradition of calculating Solar Returns. We will then move to a modern psychological approach that focuses on the process rather than the outcome. We will also look at the importance of place: how it can influence your Solar Return Chart and how much importance should be given to it.
Most of our time, however, will be spent on technique: how to read the Solar Return as a chart in its own right: what are the actors on stage doing this year and what central themes seem to be pointing at. These charts require an understanding that is slightly different from the way of thinking of natal charts because of their ephemeral quality. We will also study how this chart creates a conversation with the natal chart. As with other webinars, we will aim to extract rich, specific information without falling into fatalism. In this way, the Solar Return can also become a tool for agency and self-understanding, rather than a list of fixed events.
In this webinar, we will explore:
- How to read this chart from a psychological perspective
- How to organise the information provided in the Solar Return
- How to understand the core meanings of the chart
- How to study the interaction between the Solar Return Chart and the Natal Chart
