What if the placement you're most ashamed of is actually your superpower?
In this workshop, Ada demonstrates how shifting the story you tell about your chart can completely transform your understanding of yourself. You'll learn why astrology stereotypes harm more than they help—and how to access the real medicine hidden in every sign.
This is your introduction to the depth work inside Storytelling with Astrological Symbols.
Watch the full workshop to get a sampling of Ada’s teaching then:
Once upon a time...
Astrology was the intellectual playground of the world's most brilliant minds.
Ptolemy, Tycho Brahe, Galileo Galilei, Johannes Kepler, John Dee—all were fascinated by astrology because you can spend a hundred lifetimes exploring it and never come to the end of it.
Around each corner, there is always a new wonder waiting to delight you.
The source of astrology's depth is its symbolic language. Each symbol points to a web of interrelated people, things, and ideas. A web of stories as big as the sky.
Contained within that web is your story.

GRADUATES SAY
“Storytelling is an ancient human technology to transmit knowledge. Narrative Astrology drops any unnecessary memorization or painful math in favor of discovering the cliff notes to the story of your life, as told by the stars.
I learned more than I ever expected to in Narrative Astrology I - both about astrology as a system and myself as a person.”
“I loved Narrative Astrology I. I’m a practicing astrologer and I learned a few things! Ada presented concepts from both traditional and “modern” astrology with crystal clarity and tropes that make the building blocks of astrology easy to remember.
If learning astrology basics seems overwhelming, I really recommend that you try this class. You will come away with a clear understanding of the basic moving parts and how they work together.”
“I wish I had Ada’s introductory course to Narrative Astrology at the beginning of my astrology journey. It elegantly and cohesively combines concepts from both modern & traditional astrology, giving the student a well-rounded introduction to the art of chart reading.
Ada’s unique, narrative-driven approach encourages creativity, playfulness, and critical thinking, showing you how to use the symbols in your birth chart to become the writer and the hero of your own story. ”

A LOOK INTO
EACH MODULE
01
Module 1
Symbolic Language of Astrology
What if astrology already contains every story you've ever lived?
Learn to see astrological symbols as branching trees of associations—each branch mapping to specific experiences, memories, and moments from your life. The symbols aren't fixed—they're alive, waiting for you to recognize yourself within them.
02
Module 2
Planets as Psychological Functions
Your psyche has a team. Time to meet the players. There's the Sun (your CEO), the Moon (your emotional intelligence officer), Mercury (your communications director), Venus (your relationship manager), Mars (your action hero). Identify which planetary function is running the show in any moment—and how to call on the right one when you need it.
03
Module 3
Planets as Gods: Planetary Rulership
Explore the ancient Mesopotamian origins of planetary astrology, tracing how the seven planetary gods were understood in the civilization that birthed Western astrology. You’ll discover which godly traits survived 4,000 years of astrological practice, which interpretations are due to be reintegrated into modern astrology, and how understanding these original mythological associations deepens your understanding of planetary functions.
04
Module 4
Planets as Gods: Mesopotamia
Explore the ancient Mesopotamian origins of planetary astrology, tracing how the seven planetary gods were understood in the civilization that birthed Western astrology. You’ll discover which godly traits survived 4,000 years of astrological practice, which interpretations are due to be reintegrated into modern astrology, and how understanding these original mythological associations deepens your understanding of planetary functions.
05
Module 5
Signs, Elements, and Modes
The four elements (fire, earth, air, water) and three modes (cardinal, fixed, mutable) shape sign expression. Travel through the seasons and connect the astrological wheel with the natural cycles.
06
Module 6
Planets as Gods: Gender & Power
Learn how gender, power dynamics, and cultural bias have shaped our understanding of planetary archetypes. Drawing from ancient Mesopotamian through modern interpretations, you’ll explore how solar and lunar cultures view planetary energies differently and why traditional “masculine” and “feminine” planetary labels may be limiting your chart work.
07
Module 7
Archetypes
Work with the astrological archetypes without falling into stereotypes and tropes. Using examples from pop culture, you’ll learn the crucial difference between archetypal patterns (universal building blocks for narratives), topes, (recognized patterns) and stereotypes (limiting assumptions and beliefs).
08
Module 8
Evolutionary Intent
Shift from what signs are to what they are asking you to become. Accept the evolutionary invitation: not the fixed personality, but a developmental journey. Learn what it means when you have multiple placements in the same sign and how that concentrates your evolutionary focus. Understand the vulnerabilities, boundaries and tolerance of each sign.
09
Angular Houses
The angular houses—1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th—are the cardinal points of your chart where energy moves outward into the world. These are the houses of initiation, the places where your story becomes visible and active.
Module 9
10
Module 10
Succedent Houses
The succedent houses—2nd, 5th, 8th, and 11th—are where you take the initiations of the angular houses and build something lasting. These the places where your story gains substance, depth, and resources.
11
Module 11
Cadent Houses
The cadent houses—3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th—are where you step back from action and consolidation to process, learn, and prepare. These are the places where your story becomes flexible, adaptive, and ready for the next cycle of initiation.
12
Module 12
Aspects
Think the plants don’t have conversations with each other? Think again. Experience the relationships, tensions and harmonies that make your narrative complex and alive. Switch from thinking of “good” and bad” influences to an ongoing dialogue between different parts of your psyche seeking integration.
