Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Contentment: Astrology and the Stoics (Recording)

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Contentment: Astrology and the Stoics (Recording)

The development of astrology in the West owes a great debt to the philosophy of the Stoics. Their depictions of human bondage and freedom, their quest for serenity, and their emphasis on the nobility of character continues to influence astrology’s techniques and underlying understanding of the human condition.

What You’ll Learn

“People try to get away from it all—to the country, to the beach, to the mountains. You always wish that you could too. Which is idiotic: you can get away from it anytime you like. By going within.”  – Marcus Aurelius

Presentation of this course coincided with Stoic Week (October 19-25), an annual international event that invites one to ‘live like a Stoic for a week’. This free online celebration has had over 20,000 participants since 2012. The Modern Stoicism group has developed meditations, contemplations, and exercises to give people a hands-on experience of the pursuit of greater understanding, serenity, and positive action in the world.

This three-part workshop introduces the main ideas and the astrological applications of the Stoics.
