Let’s talk about your Sedna
Sedna was named after the Inuit goddess of the sea and protector of marine mammals, and she tends to feature prominently in the charts of trauma survivors, advocates, and people who have had a rough time with rejection by parents. In this reading, we'll explore how she shows up for you personally and what she has to teach you.
Explore the Astrology of Sedna
Ada introduces her journey with dwarf planet Sedna. How did a tiny space rock named for an Arctic goddess capture the imagination of an astrologer from the Pacific Northwest?
In this lecture, Ada shares her research on Sedna, asking: What can we learn about the meaning of Sedna from mythology, dwarf planet Sedna's discovery story, our astronomical knowledge of the planet, and astrology readings with clients who have Sedna prominent in natal charts and transits?
As Sedna enters Gemini, the age of extraction and one-sided giving is ending. Ada looks back on lessons from Sedna’s last 11,500 year cycle and her most recent 58 year passage through Taurus. How does Sedna in Gemini revisit choices we made during the Neolithic revolution? And what can Sedna’s relationship with the Inuit teach us about how to rebuild relationships of care with each other?
As Sedna entered Gemini, Ada sat down with Lisa Mendes of the Astro Insights podcast to talk about the archetypal meaning and cultural value of the enigmatic Trans-Neptunian Object named Sedna, its recent ingress into Gemini, and its evolving role in the dynamic aspect pattern involving Uranus and Pluto.
The discovery of Sedna rewrote our entire model of the solar system, and it’s time for astrologers to update the stories we tell about solar archetypes. In this essay, Ada argues that Leo people (and those with strong suns in their natal charts) may be natural performers, but they aren’t fundamentally motivated by the need for attention. What they want more than anything is to belong in a constellation of stars, to dance and play with the others forever.
The millennial generation has Sedna in Taurus and Pluto in Scorpio, an aspect that gives them an intense relationship with both of these mythological rulers of the underworld. In this essay, Ada (a Millennial herself) asks: What can the Hobbits at the end of The Lord of the Rings teach us how to live well with an opposition between Pluto and Sedna?
