Addiction
"Addiction" is Astro Butterfly School's translation of Carl Jung’s approach to addiction, transcendence, and individuation into astrological language.
In this framework, addiction is seen as a universal, archetypal drive - not just something that affects a small percentage of people. While only about 10% of people meet the criteria for clinical addiction, all of us have some form of addictive tendency.
Even when these patterns are subtle or easy to overlook, they matter - because they show us where we reach for transcendence, comfort, or a deeper sense of meaning.
The outer planets - Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto - act as windows into the deepest longings of the psyche, the archetypal currents that pull us toward something beyond ordinary life.
In this course, these 3 planets are our primary guides, each one shining a light on a particular pathway or style of addiction.
In each module, we’ll explore one of these outer planets as both a metaphor and a living force in your chart - a way to map and understand how your own longing for “more” might take shape.
Course Testimonials:
"I left this course feeling like I finally understood myself. I've looked at my chart a thousand times and have taken lots of courses. This one though. I finally get it."
"Clear and went deep. It was better than therapy!"
"'I've long been a fan of Jung's approach to self-awareness and personal growth, so the Jungian lens helps me to bring together concepts that are already familiar to me with the new (to me) astrological lens."
"I experienced many A ha moments throughout the course. The reflection piece really helped me to look back at experiences I did in my past while looking at my birthchart/transits which resonated with me. It connected so many dots for me"
"It made me view astrology as a panorama instead of a flat 2D landscape."
