INTENTION
INVOCATION: STARTING THE ASTROLOGICAL YEAR WITH POWER
Have you ever felt the pull of a new beginning, but didn't know where to direct it?
The Astrological New Year carries one of the most potent initiatory energies of the cycle.
This is not a moment for reflection. This is a moment for ignition.
In this immersive evening we combine the primal frequency of shamanic drumming, the fire of breathwork, and the precision of your natal chart to locate exactly where you are being called to begin.
Because not all beginnings are the same. Yours has a specific house. A specific theme. A specific power waiting to be claimed. Ready to discover yours?
Every year, the Sun crosses into Aries, and the cosmos exhales a single word:
Begin.
But begin what? Begin where?
This is the question most of us carry into every new cycle: full of energy, full of longing, but unsure where to place it. We feel the ignition without knowing which direction to aim the flame.
This evening is about changing that.
Using the precision of your natal chart, the primal frequency of shamanic drumming, and the fire of breathwork, we will locate exactly where you are being called to initiate, and activate that place in your body, not just your mind.
Because every new beginning has a house. A theme. A specific territory of your life where life itself is asking you to move first.
✦ WHAT TO EXPECT
After a grounding welcome, we open the space with an introduction to the Astrological New Year: what it means cosmically, and why Aries season carries one of the most potent initiatory charges in the entire cycle. This is not a gentle beginning. This is a ignition point.
Shamanic Drum Journey
We drop below the noise of the mind. The drum is one of the oldest technologies of consciousness, it slows the thinking brain and opens the body to deeper knowing. In this journey, you will meet the part of you that already knows what needs to begin. You don't have to figure it out. You have to feel it.
Breathwork: Ignition
Through active breathwork, we move stuck energy, clear what is stale, and activate your life force. This is not a relaxation practice, it is a clearing. A making room. A saying yes with your whole body before the mind has had time to argue.
✦ YOUR CHART, YOUR POWER
In our astrological circle, we locate where Aries, and its ruler Mars, falls in your natal chart. This is your personal initiation point for this new cycle.
Example: Aries lands in your 7th house. This year, your initiation is through relationship, through the courage to be seen, to ask for what you want, to stop disappearing into partnerships and claim your place within them.
Example: Aries falls in your 2nd house. The beginning is about resources, your money, your body, your self-worth. The question life is asking you is: what do you actually value, and are you living like you mean it?
We'll identify the key questions your chart is inviting you to ask, and create space for group reflection and resonance. No astrology knowledge is needed. Just curiosity and a birth time.
✦ YOU'LL LEAVE WITH:
- A clear understanding of where your astrological year begins and what it is asking of you
- A felt sense of your intention: not as a thought, but as something alive in your body
- Your personal initiatory question for this cycle
- An activated nervous system ready to move and a grounded clarity about where to direct that movement
THIS WORKSHOP IS PERFECT FOR YOU IF
You feel the pull of a new beginning but don't know where to direct it
You keep starting cycles the same way,and getting the same results.
You want to move from thinking about change to embodying it, and you want to understand exactly where your chart is asking you to act,vand feel it, not just know it.
You are a seasoned astrologer or a complete beginner
This class is suitable for any level and there will be something you will learn anyway.
You know your time of birth so you can work with your own natal chart at its full potential
Knowing the time, date, and place of your birth is fundamental for an accurate understanding of your natal chart. For example, the Moon changes sign every 2-3 days. If you were born on a day when the Moon traveled from one sign to another, only your birth time would pinpoint what sign it was in when you were born. If you don’t know the time in which you were born, you can ask for a rectification at a very fair price to my colleague Tamsin here.

LIZA PUGLIA
Liza Puglia, a multi passionate somatic enthusiast, expresses a range of her sensorial discoveries from the kitchen to the yoga studio to the psychedelic realms. Her need for movement and playfulness weaves their way through her work as a way to lighten the heavier aspects of life to access our innate treasures.

Eventually she left the restaurant industry to pursue a career in modalities dedicated to inner Self Care.
With a rather rebellious tendency Liza tends to create new recipes using ancient technologies adjusted to a modern society. Her main objective is - how to feel better in the body. From the physical to the mental to the emotional to the energetic. Her belief that no system works alone invites a blend of practices ranging from nutrition, to Kriya Yoga, to dance, to breath work, to intimate Self Study.
Having relocated to Lisbon she has been teaching Tantra Yoga, leading Self Study workshops, studying shamanic practices and psychedelic therapy, assisting in multifaceted retreats, experimenting in the kitchen and is currently creating an online studio. Her dedication to order, humor and spontaneity support her ultimate desire of freedom, joy and satisfaction.
