Shadow

“Shadow” is the 2nd of the 4 stages in the “Transform Your Life with Astrology" program.

Transform Your Life With Astrology, with its 4 stages - Addiction, Shadow, Purpose, and Service - reinterprets the individuation process through an astrological lens.

Shadow plays a key role in this process - in fact, it's the "make or break" point that determines whether our addictions and longings become fuel for Purpose and Service, OR collapse into compulsion, projection, and unconscious patterns.

We could say Shadow is the Achilles' heel of the individuation process - no one can achieve wholeness without eventually meeting their Shadow.


The Shadow, a term derived from the work of Carl Jung, describes the parts of ourselves that we deny, disown, or repress because they don’t align with our ideal self-image.

In the Shadow course, we will explore Shadow through:

  • The 7th House and the 3rd Quadrant: The 3rd quadrant is the part of the chart where the Shadow is directly explored and integrated. The 3rd quadrant, sitting opposite the 1st quadrant of Self, becomes the arena where shadow material is revealed, mirrored, and eventually integrated.
  • The Social Planets: Jupiter and Saturn represent the terrain where the hard work of integration is done. The social planets ensure that the energy of the personal planets is healthily channeled so that it doesn’t divert into addiction, avoidance, or feeling at odds with the world.
  • Oppositions and Polarities: The opposition aspect is the hallmark of projection, often manifesting through relationships, where we see in others the qualities we deny in ourselves. Every sign and house axis represents a balance of opposites, and the Lunar Nodes are one opposition we all have in our natal charts.
  • Planetary Archetypes: Each planet - from the Sun and the Moon all the way to Pluto - carries archetypal energies that can manifest consciously or unconsciously, depending on how they are integrated.

Fundamentally, "Shadow" helps you identify and work with the hidden parts of yourself reflected in your chart, so you can transform projections into self-awareness and integration.

"Shadow" is for:

  • People drawn to psychological astrology and shadow work
  • Astrologers, coaches, counselors, and those who work with people one-on-one
  • Anyone who wants to understand the unconscious patterns and projections revealed in their chart

This course offers a unique perspective on Shadow that deepens your understanding of who you are and what you're here to do. The mix of theoretical frameworks, chart examples, and application exercises makes sure you don’t just understand Shadow intellectually - you actually work with it.

The goal is to help you live a more fulfilled life by supporting your individuation process.
