"Encountering Pallas's work is like finding an inn in the middle of a quest, where you are asked to step by the fire, get some rest, maybe think about things you haven't been able to think about because you've been too busy with other things but its important to hold all things in balance.
And having a rest stop is crucial to be able to continue doing the work."

a professional consulting astrologer for almost a decade
devotionally and magically tracking Venus’ cycles since 2015 and truly obsessed with them
tracking transits and planetary cycles relationally since Neptune entered Pisces in 2011
studying astrology on and off since a family friend first read my chart when I was ~10
regularly creating astrological resources to aid in my personal and professional practices of creativity, devotion, and love
creator of the popular Venus retrograde workbooks since 2021
author of The IC: An Astrology of Coming Home, a successfully funded Kickstarter Project We Love and recently featured on The Astrology Podcast
MA in literature & environment, Certificate in Teaching Excellence with specialization in Equity & Well-Being, Certified in Grief Literacy, and an Ancestral Medicine Practitioner-in-Training
has spoken for NORWAC, ISAR, WSAA, Ancestral Medicine, and Portland School of Astrology
recently facilitated a day-long generative writing/astrology workshop at the Living Astrologies Conference in Santa Fe, NM and it was one of the most meaningful teaching experiences I have ever had
It’s no secret Venus’ cycle is my favourite.
Venus IS connection. And connection is repair for cultural wounds rooted in lack of belonging, lineage, and place. Relational astrology is a way to be here together.
Planetary cycles connect us to the World, to Time, to our histories, our present moment, our future, and most importantly, to each other.
...which isn't as bad as it sounds.
But right now is a pokey moment. That's part of why I crafted this workshop, in order to give you a moment, and to kind of make you take a moment to sit with all the changes happening."

"Pallas K. Augustine is the professor and the magician.
The invitation from Pallas is to deepen your relationship to your own life chart, especially to discover and open to the hidden or forgotten pieces. They offer long lessons in planetary cycles and tricky homework assignments. There are plenty of clues on offer but no easy answers to "what does it mean?"
Pallas is also the playfellow in the neighborhood, on their belly under a tree, with a book and a dog. A friend who knows the trees and the weeds as I do, who likes to visit the little brook and watch the wind in the trees and the clouds in the sky.
Since working with Pallas, I have deepened my love for the other earth bound residents sharing my patch of home. I grieve the loss of life and also embrace the larger longer circles and cycles.
I've always had the moon in my sights and now Pallas has brought Venus closer to my heart where she sings her song more sweetly. These and many other threads glow more brightly in the tapestry I am weaving.
I recognize myself in the longer story of ancestors and stars."

In the northern hemisphere where I am, Venus' meeting with the Sun in Capricorn falls near the darkest moment of the year.
As a moment that already necessitates quiet and softness, in a time of year in the north that also does, my spirits and I decided to offer this guided exploration as a recorded offering to help you take the time you need to create that quiet and softness for yourself.
As well, generative workshops where you are actually writing and reflecting can benefit from being recorded so you can pause if you get inspired and deep in the work.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the most common concern I hear from yall in terms of wanting to but feeling limited in how you can engage in my workbook-type offerings is the issue of making the time and cultivating the focus. Not everyone has a robust daily journalling practice, and you don't need to!
This recorded workshop is my way of giving you a whole month to plan for your attunement to Venus' moment in January, to take an hour and a bit for yourself and Her, and your relationship with Her.
You can commit now by registering, set the intention, and see what happens to support you in following through to find a moment for quiet, softness, writing and/or reflection.
When you register and what you register for will determine what you have access to immediately:
1:1 Session folks will receive access to their booking calendar immediately.
Everyone will gain access to the Podia product areas, but if you register before December 7th at 9pm Eastern to receive the waitlist bonuses, you'll have to wait until December 8th at 11am Eastern for your Venus Cycles 101 lecture and the workshop.
The main workshop releases on January 2nd at 4pm Eastern time to everyone registered.
The Homework & Feedback tier instructions will drop with the workshop on January 2nd.
Yes, you will be able to download and stream within Podia itself. There will also be a workbook version of a transcript of the prompts.
Except for the sold out limited homework & feedback and 1:1 session tiers, there is no additional Q&A support planned. That said, Pallas is always happy to receive emails and DMs on Instagram from students, clients, and readers who have questions about the material. Always give them a few days to respond.
If your question is too big for an email/DM or Pallas deems it would be helpful to all registrants to hear their response, they will ask your permission to write an answer to include in the additional resources section of the workshop and/or lecture, whichever the question primarily concerns.
While what we are doing here is based on similar ancient astronomical and astrological phenomena as pioneering astrologer Arielle Guttman's "Venus Star Point" system, this workshop is not based on that system or method of interpretation.
Folks have taken to applying the idea of the "Venus Star Point" to any conjunction of Venus and the Sun without credit to the robust context of Arielle's work, for which she deserves gallons of credit as her system is a unique method of interpreting natal Venus patterns in the context of transiting Venus patterns throughout history. For more about Arielle's "Venus Star Point" system, visit her website.
This workshop (and my work on this topic generally) focuses on a living, participatory engagement with Venus' cycles to support our creative, devotional, and relational practices. What we are doing is certainly complimentary with Arielle's approach, but it is neither a substitute nor is it necessary to understand the "Venus Star Point" system to engage in this workshop.
"The world view that Pallas offers in their works reflects the softness that is often missed in astrology.
Their lectures remind me that being grounded is one of the first steps to work with the sky."
"The feeling I get from Pallas' work is deep roots. I've engaged most with their work on Venus and the Venus-Moon cycles.
These offerings have helped me deepen my technical astrological and astronomical knowledge and also my relational intimacy with these two beauties."
"Pallas has changed the way I relate and work with astrology, and, in doing so, has fundamentally shifted how I relate and work with myself.
There is such depth to their work and their wisdom, which breathes life and vitality into this practice — which is all too often viewed statically. "
"My experience with any of Pallas' work is a felt sense of energetic releasing, reorganizing and rebalancing.
In a longer term way, discovery and restoration of essential dignity. Animistic bio syncing between me, my chart, the cosmos and my roots.
When I engage with Pallas' material, my story comes into sharper vision and vision becomes wider."
"I understand myself, my environment and my relationships far better since I’ve engaged with Pallas and their rigorous and soulful work."
"Pallas’ work is both expansive and erudite.
Every time I have engaged with Pallas’ work it has been an invitation to self-knowledge and self-acceptance.
By capturing and translating the vast possibility of the cosmos, Pallas invites us into the vastness of our own potential."
