Bottom line, you want to deepen your relationship with astrology and astrology as a way of life.

Whether you are just beginning your astrological journey, or are a professional astrologer, or anywhere in between, this course is designed to uplevel you. You'll deepen your communion with the cosmos, expand your confidence in understanding and speaking the language of astrology, and gain tools to apply your astrological knowledge to bring magic, healing, and flourishing into your daily life.

AN ALL-LEVELS COURSE

This one program serves beginners and advanced practitioners alike.

The deeper we get as astrologers into our practice, the more we can appreciate new depths and nuances when we go back to the basics. The basics in this class are strategically organized to give beginners their bearings, while being penetratingly mythopoetic and insight-inducing enough to keep the attention of the advanced students.

HOW THIS COURSE SERVES BEGINNERS & INTERMEDIATE STUDENTS

The material is organized in a strategic way to support you in getting to know the individual astrological building blocks and then how to put it all together to begin forming interpretations. You will be initiated into relationships with the archetypes so they become facets of reality that you know intimately.

Since this is not a self-study course (there are pre-recorded teachings, but we meet live to discuss them), you will have ample opportunities to discuss what you are learning and to be reflected, helpfully adjusted, and walked with.

Testimonial

I FEEL LIKE ITS REALLY HARD TO CONDENSE MY GRATITUDE FOR SABRINA HERSELF INTO A SHORT REVIEW…

…it’s like plumbing the depths of the ocean with only a spoon to catch a seahorse. She has a subtle, Neptunian vibe that makes it easy to ask questions and come at the work from a very pure, personal space. When I have spoken up or asked a question, I have always been met with genuine acceptancee and respect.

The organization each week, the slides, the talk and the conversation between all of us has created an atmosphere that, for me, has been a joy, as I’ve been encouraged to learn as much from my classmates as Sabrina herself, and I have learned a lot! I feel more coherent and fluid in my astrological practice, and have made genuine friends I cherish. If you’re interested in Evolutionary Astrology, Sabrina will guide you through the process and concepts around it with grace and clarity.”

HOW THIS COURSE SERVES ADVANCED/PROFESSIONAL ASTROLOGERS:

As you know, there are different astrology lineages and Evolutionary Astrology is a particular lineage. People with backgrounds in other forms of astrology can expect their awareness of Pluto and the lunar nodes to grow through studying with me in this course, allowing you to bring a further psychological depth to your existing practice.

Pluto is often undertreated, oversimplified, or not as thoroughly regarded as it could be, and it does relate to ‘invisible’ undercurrents. Developing a relationship with Pluto relates to learning new ways to read between the lines or see what is happening underneath. Pluto material is not invisible to a trained eye.

You will gain a more robust understanding of the “evolutionary intention” of the archetypes…

…the deeper psychological process or need that any given archetype is seeking to accomplish or fulfill, and thus gain poignant insights into your own and your clients’ deeper life storylines.

You will gain the opportunity to build more bridges with astrologers across disciplines and you will also get to develop the uniqueness of your own practice through the cross-fertilization of the different lineages you work with.

My advanced students tend be deeply lit up by this class and claim it to be lifechanging.

Not only are the basics in this class dripping in depth, but your advanced position in your studies will allow you to appreciate new nuances when you come back to these topics from the different perspectives offered here.

YOU CAN SOURCE ASTROLOGICAL WISDOM FROM WITHIN YOUR OWN CONSCIOUSNESS

Once you Speak the Language of the Planets and Stars


Many people have a fascination with astrology–following astrological weather reports or researching their natal placements in books, or even offering casual readings to friends. But many of these individuals also feel like astrology is somehow separate from them, something they don't yet get. Something is standing in the way from feeling grounded and rooted in the practice.

I self-studied astrology for nearly a decade beginning in my childhood and my life changed overnight the first time I studied with a teacher. I went from depending on other astrologer's interpretations to realizing that I could form direct relationships to Source, to the planets, to the archetypes, and receive direct transmissions of insight from within. And you can, too.

This course contains a comprehensive vision of astrology that empowers you to gain your bearings and deepen your practice for the rest of your life onward.

AS SOMEONE WHO HAS SELF-STUDIED ASTROLOGY FOR YEARS, SABRINA’S COURSE PROVIDED ME WITH THE PERFECT CONTAINER FOR ACCELERATED GROWTH

The course materials perfectly exemplified Sabrina’s unique approach to astrology. She sources creative and regenerative channeled insights through deep devotion towards studying the archetypes and the technical aspects of astrology. Prior to joining, I was always mystified as to how one manages to achieve this level of mastery. Through the course, Sabrina masterfully guided us and held space for us to develop not just an intellectual or philosophical understanding of the system, but more importantly a felt sense of these archetypes.

The structure and inherent discipline of the container served to finely tune our intuitive capabilities. By the end of the course, I felt like I, too, am capable of developing my own relationships with and build insights from these astrological archetypes. The video content that makes up the weekly modules are deeply illuminating, and highly inspiriing. While Sabrina’s content is always of the highest quality, her tone is inviting, warm, and friendly.

The experience is akin to having a fireside chat with a good friend who just happens to be a highly skilled astrologier. I have no doubt that I will revist them often for the rest of my astrological journey.

In addition, the students that Sabrina attracted to this container are highly committed engaged, mater, curious, and compassionate seekers. Through Sabrina’s tutelage, a common astrological languaged emerged within the group’s consciousness through the course. It was a beautiful and healing experience to witness this community forming and supporting each other. If you’ve been thinking abou the course, I highly recoomment you join this beautiful container!”

SO, YOU WANT TO DEEPEN YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH ASTROLOGY?

Your why’s may vary from some of the following:

You want to study and work with a vision of astrology that goes way beyond anything superficial or simplistic. You want to a deep dive into the psychology and deeper, more esoteric meanings, of the archetypes.


If you’re more advanced – you’re already in the deep end, but feel called to expand your skillset in this particular vein of astrology or with me in particular (you’ve resonated with my podcast or YouTube channel and want to go deeper).


If you’re newer on your astrological journey or still figuring it out – you’ve been self-studying astrology for a while but are coming up against blocks in your understanding. You wish you had more stable footing in astrology to expand your knowledge!


You’ve really resonated with things you’ve read about astrology, or readings you’ve gotten, but when you try to study astrology on your own you are overwhelmed by all the symbols and jargon. You want someone to guide you through it - you want to be initiated into the world of astrology.


You’ve read things about your chart on the internet that you find disempowering, and you want to learn the foundations that would give you the power to understand your chart for yourself, so that you don’t just have to rely on interpretations you find in books or on the internet, and yet you could continue to research astrology on your own with a more critical, discerning eye.


You already feel connected to some aspect of your astrology practice (you have a good grasp on the signs and planets, for example) but you don’t know yet how to understand the natal chart as a whole, how all the pieces are interacting. You only know how to look at the parts.


You’re a practicing astrologer already who wants to deepen their psychological and spiritual affinity with the craft. You know that your continuing education will only enhance your ability to serve your clients.

SPIRITUAL GROWTH

Evolutionary Astrology is both a wisdom school and a mystery school, and students repeatedly report new vistas of their spirituality opening up to them through the content of this intensive.

THE CURRICULUM INCLUDES:

  • The twelve signs and houses and their underlying karmic themes (a deep dive).

  • The Sun, Moon, planets (notably including the outer planets Uranus, Neptune & Pluto), and the lunar nodes & how to place them in signs and houses.

  • Aspects, planetary combinations, and planetary phases.

  • Synthesizing elements of a chart together; how to read the chart as a whole.

  • The Evolutionary Astrology chart analysis method – resourcing Pluto and the lunar nodes as the evolutionary bottom-line of the natal chart.

  • Karma, reincarnation, and esoteric principles of soul-based astrology.

  • How to apply astrology in your life; how to transform and evolve using the map of your natal chart.

WHAT IS EVOLUTIONARY ASTROLOGY?

Evolutionary Astrology is a paradigm of astrology that reveals the nature of the Soul and its ongoing evolution. The Soul is the being who continues to exist and reincarnates after this lifetime falls away, and the Soul has been here before.

Reading a natal chart with the techniques Evolutionary Astrology holds allows one to get a comprehensive understanding of what the Soul has been up to in a series of prior lives.

What has it been focused on? What are its patterns? What are its talents? What is unresolved? What is the cutting edge of evolution in this lifetime?

At a technical level (for those of you who already speak astrology - but if not, don't worry - you'll get caught up!),

Evolutionary Astrology places a great deal of emphasis on Pluto and the outer planets, and the lunar nodes.

Evolutionary Astrology is also an intutive form of astrology, where it is just as important to tune in with the person as it is important to tune into the natal chart.

This is not a fatalistic form of astrology, but rather is a school of astrology that places emphasis on our capacity to evolve emotionally and spiritually. Learning the wisdom teachings of the archetypes (as you will in this course) tends to be evolutionary and therapeutic in of itself.

THIS COURSE’S HISTORY

This program has been running since 2017 and has seen several hundred students through the process of creating an intimate relationship with astrology. The course was originally designed (and has maintained this spirit) to be a transmission field where students can learn to relate to the astrological archetypes at depth - having the ‘click’ of getting to know the signs and planets in such a way that an ongoing relationship is established, and students are free to develop these relationships throughout their lives. 

This course braids the spirit of astrology (a communion with cosmos that inevitably transforms and deepens our relationship to life) with technical chart-reading skills that allow us to see the natal chart as a holistic narrative of the soul’s multi-lifetime journey - core themes that a soul is working with that inform the entire chart.

Since 2020, I have been offering advanced alumni programs for alumni of this intensive that focus on the further cultivation of astrological voice and creativity. This has expanded and deepened the Evolutionary Astrology Intensive itself, since the very material that is being taught and discussed in our group continues to be alive in new ways in my own personal and professional practice everyday.

The Evolutionary Astrology Intensive is not just a class, but a transformative spiritual experience.

In addition to bonding with one another, students often have learning experiences here that are more enriching to their overall life than they imagined. With our contemplation of the outer planets (which represent the 'beyond') it's to be expected that our horizons can open beyond what we imagined.

This is a wisdom study of life. I do not predict specific results for my students in terms of what areas of life will be most moved or activated by this program, but I do frequently hear from students that this course has been personally healing, and students will classify that in a variety of unique ways, like the class opened their artistry, or has supported their parenting. My main agenda as a teacher is to help you speak this language – but what the language wants to show you will be your own direct and personal experience with this sacred practice.

WHY STUDY WITH ME?

I'm a huge proponent of having a team and growing and evolving with the support of a whole village. And I love my astrology colleagues. If you're an astrology lover, I hope you'll study with as many teachers as you are drawn to. Every astrologer is like a liaison between the cosmos and you, and the reason to study with me is because you resonate with the vision of astrology that I share.

I'm here to further give that vision to you and also give you the tools to become astrologically self-sufficient, meaning you'll leave this course with the frameworks and tools to continue deepening your practice for as long as you wish to.

You can also anticipate that this program is an opportunity to study astrology with a teacher that will meet you and walk with you.

WHAT’S THE VISION?

All the archetypes or elements of a natal chart (signs, planets, aspects, etc.) exist on a vast spectrum of possibility. We can experience the lower-end of this spectrum of possibility via our most difficult struggles and patterns. But once we understand the arch of possibility at play, we can transform our challenges or repeating patterns into higher forms of themselves…Like a person in a dim state of realization versus a person glowing and flourishing in their highest excitement and self-actualization. Same person, different experience!

Similarly, no matter how you break it down astrologically (the sign, planet, aspect, house, etc.) there are gradients of realization within the archetypes and therein lies our capacity to both identify problems/things we’d like to improve upon and imagine a better future that is totally within reach.

This is how astrology helps us evolve.

ASTROLOGICAL FLUENCY LOOKS LIKE MAGIC, AND IT IS! BUT YOU CAN LEARN HOW TO SPEAK THIS LANGUAGE FOR YOURSELF, TOO.

We act like astrology is just something that some people naturally understand but the reality is every skillful astrologer out there has studied with a teacher or mentor. Since its origins, astrology has been a spread-by-transmission art, from teacher to student.

We wouldn’t look at someone doing a complex yoga posture and say, "Wow! I can’t believe they just naturally know how to do that with their body." We are more likely to suspect that that person has studied yoga with someone and practiced.

The energy that we invest into studying and practicing astrology is returned to us through deepened intuition, insight, and intimacy with life. We experience flashes of genius. Like the yogi's ability to get into complex asanas (physical postures), studying astrology can open up enhanced mental, emotional, and spiritual abilities.

Astrology is a language. If you understand this language, the sky speaks to you.
— Dane Rudhyar

AFTER THE COURSE IS OVER…

Friendships have continued, study groups have formed, students have developed their professional practices, and we've even had a class reunion with more to come. I've always envisioned this course to be an initiation (the first or one of many) into the astrological world. You get to leave this course more connected to the cosmos, to magic, to community, and your deep inner-knowing.

Your journey might end here (and you will be resourced to better understand material you decide to self-study), or you might find yourself drawn to one of my advanced alumni programs like DIVINER or METEORITE.

In the spirit of Evolutionary Astrology, my own practice is always evolving. This is a language and type of astrology that inspires me to constantly seek intimacy with the pulse of truth and true evolution in my life. It keeps me on my toes. I love continuing to guide experiences for my students that are called to go deeper.

Testimonial

I WHOLEHEARTEDLY RECOMMEND SABRINA’S INTENSIVE NOT ONLY FOR FOLKS WITH A CURIOUS PASSION FOR EVOLUTIONARY ASTROLOGY…

…but for those who are ready to cultivate a relationship to the archetypal denizens of their own nature in a safe and supportive learning environment. I began this course with a peripheral understanding of general astrology, and had a desire to know more than I knew, and I got way more than I bargained for.

Thanks to this lovely experience, I’ve gained a deepening confidence in my own ability to recognize and interpret subtle celestial influences in my own life and develop balance in them.

There’s a real perennial approach to cosmic living here, and I’m not overstating how valuable Sabrina’s methodology could be to on’e own journey towards fuller embodiment. Not just exclusively for potential practitioners, this is a great course for storytellers who want to infuse their work with an expansive approach to intuitive mythology; for healers who want to apply a plus-minded modality for spiritual wellness; or for the seeker who is learning to trust their process of divinity and individuation. Sabrina is a masterful teacher, an Aquarian Age magnet for good people of many paths, and what she’s created will certainly elevate the best of your self-knowledge.”

    If you fall behind the pace of the course, you will have access to the materials to catch up on your own time whether that is during the duration of the course or after the course has completed.

  • Evolutionary Astrology unlocks keys to understanding the history and story of the Soul. On an inner-level, you gain access to becoming acquainted with the deeper version of yourself – the being who goes beyond the avatar that your current incarnation/ego is. It offers incredibly detailed context for why this current incarnation and ego is relevant to the Soul, and why you as a Soul vibrated with this life in particular. This is such liberating knowledge! A practiced Evolutionary Astrologer can deliver this information to you in a reading, but if you would like the tools to make this an ongoing quest of self-discovery to which you can do your own research, build your own body of knowledge, and form your own interpretations, this course can empower you to do just that. This course will show you how to read the astrological map, which is like giving your Soul’s consciousness flight.

  • Patterns that are rooted in the Soul are deeply-grooved and continue to recreate themselves in different forms. A certain awareness of what is happening — what exactly the pattern is — offers a moment where transformation can occur. This body of astrology is a way to lucidly access this knowledge so that transformation is an option where there wasn’t that option in sight yesterday.

  • Evolutionary Astrology utilizes, on a technical level, an analysis of the placement of Pluto, the lunar nodes, and the planetary rulers of the lunar nodes, to tune into this Soul-level interpretation of the natal chart. Whether you know what I’m talking about here because you’re a seasoned student or practicer of astrology, or that’s all a foreign language because you don’t know anything about astrology — you’ll walk away from this course knowing how to form this depth of interpretation. And with practice, you'll get better and better at it.

  • Evolutionary Astrology is a Pluto-based astrology, and Pluto is the planet of transformation! This kind of knowledge can make life more vivid and also help us know how to direct our energy – we become more aware of who we are and what we deeply value. By nature, the Soul is interested in this life – it exists here and is bonded to things, like the body. The Soul forms deep (however temporary) attachments whether we do so consciously or not. Becoming lucidly aware of the Soul and how it operates is a way to form conscious intimacy with life, where we previously were ruled by the subconscious. Something I found liberating about this body of knowledge was the empowerment it gave me to invest in life and in my interests – that Soul matters. I felt more secure in my direction. The integration of Soul-awareness is just living in a way where the Soul is guiding you, and becoming more aware of the ways that Soul had been projected (misplaced) onto other things before.

  • This is a class for people who want to expand their thinking. Specifically you will be learning a lot about the Soul and how the Soul speaks and operates in our experience, which is a layer of reality often left to the esoteric and mystical sidelines. (Hence why it can seem intimidating.) So how do we know how to talk about the Soul, how to know Soul? This is a class for people who are interested in that question. And this is a class for people who want the tools to interpret an astrological chart (including their own) from the perspective of the Soul’s ongoing evolution: to really take on the “why am I here?” question. What have I been developing in prior lives, and what am I still refining? What are my gifts? My adversities? What fundamentally compels and motivates me? Why has my soul chosen this ego, this incarnation, as an avatar for its development?

    Additionally this class is for people who are interested in astrology already but want to take it deeper. One, they want to take their understanding of the concepts they already know deeper – beyond the personality layer and into the spiritual, soul layers. Second, they want to take their commitment and understanding deeper by studying in a more formal context. When you study astrology, you actually form relationships to the cosmos! This is a class for people who want to develop a meaningful relationship with the cosmos and the part of themselves who knows there is something more to life.

  • This course can be taken by people who have any level of astrological knowledge; including seasoned students/practitioners of astrology who want to learn about the Evolutionary Astrology perspective. Students who are newer to astrology but experienced with studying archetypes or psychology will likely have an easy and quick time grasping the concepts.

    Students who are very new to astrology (like you don’t know how to look up a natal chart) are welcome in this course, and encouraged to stick with the challenge of the learning curve. This course teaches the fundamentals, so you are able to come to this course as a total beginner. If you want to run your situation or experience level by me, don't hesitate to reach out over email sabrina@monarchastrology.com.

    If you enjoy the content I share on my YouTube channel (Sabrina Monarch) and Magic of the Spheres podcast you'll encounter similar language and depth in this course.

  • No. As an example, I’ve come to believe (and it is my observed experience) that themes from people’s past lives are recreated in their early life. So while a soul-based astrologer might come up with one story for where a person’s complexes and gifts are rooted (in the deep past, patterns of past lives, specific traumas or events from past lives), a traditional psychotherapist might locate the source of those same complexes and gifts in the person’s childhood (via the parental environment, specific or ongoing early life traumas, etc). You could literally look at it either way. In my opinion, the childhood is just a fractal of the soul’s history (so both are true). The themes of the Soul and the history of the Soul are rich fodder for thought and whether you take them literally or metaphorically, you’ll find it enriching! And since the Soul is not a taught landscape in most schooling, it’s not that often you get to apply a nuanced examination of it. Studying Evolutionary Astrology is a chance to do that.

  • It’s great to bring background to this class. In this course specifically, you’ll get to reimagine astrology through the lens of Pluto or, the Soul. The deeper underlying meanings of the archetypes are explored. And you’ll gain technique for analyzing the chart through an angle you may not be familiar with. If you already are familiar with Evolutionary Astrology, what you’ll gain from this beyond additional perspective you pick up, is sheer practice. On the energetic level, your time and space spent on astrology will simply make you a better astrologer.

  • Why thank you for asking! 🤗 I have truly enjoyed connecting with students about this super rich material and witnessing groups of students bond over the duration of the course, and form friendships that last after the course is over. I've enjoyed witnessing people's breakthroughs and the phenomenon of people feeling more accepting, loving, and embodied as themselves as they learn or deepen their existing fluency in this language. I love the deep and meaningful conversations that arise and the opportunity to share a language that has empowered and transformed me so deeply, with others who end up feeling that same enrichment and meaning.
