88. How to Use Astrology to Achieve Your Health Goals with Molly Morrissey, MS
Most of us know if we’re a Libra or a Capricorn. But did you know that is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to classical astrology? It turns out much like today’s nutrition information, mainstream astrology is reduced to a one-size-fits-all assumption based on one planet in your chart. The reality is when you understand the uniqueness of your entire chart, you can understand more about yourself and how to use your essence to support your health goals. What I love about Molly and reason I wanted to have her on the show is she has studied astrology and human behavior deeply. In this fascinating interview, you will get a perspective on astrology that’s totally different than what you’re expecting.In this episode, you’ll learn:1. How traditional astrology, which assumed each of our physical bodies had a spiritual essence, was historically the primary basis of health and medicine.2. The four traditional astrological elements and how identifying your elemental make-up empowers you to know what foods and emotional patterns support your nature so you can work with yourself instead of fighting yourself.3. How traditional astrology’s healing elements were stripped away because they worked and the powers that be at the time wanted to keep the knowledge for themselves. And, how many royal families still use astrology today!Send me (Ali) a text message.⭐️ Ready to catch yourself before you fall off track with food? RSVP for my free workshop on September 3rd.
