study with me! astrohistories & indigenous astrologies for modern mystics
saturdays beginning 11/1: creation, forked tongues, the tower
hey friends!
as the moon wanes and the chaos of eclipse season and the beginning of a new school year recede, i find myself looking ahead at the rest of this season.
we’re currently in the second half of my course CREATION IS A CANCER RISING, designed to introduce folks to the planets through indigenous culture, stories, and nativities. each week, we focus on a planet and then review that planet in signs of essential dignity and debility, learning about the planets in signs through the life stories of indigenous people with those placements. i also share native stories and cultural protocols i carry as they relate to the planets.
this class has been so fun to create and share, and i want to keep going! so:
the next round of CREATION IS A CANCER RISING will begin at 8 am pacific on saturday, november 1, and meet for seven saturdays in a row. this class will run for about two hours, 8-10 am, with each class meeting focusing on a different traditional planet.
over the summer i ran a crash course intensive of my astrohistory class FORKED TONGUES. in the intensive, i condensed material that i had previously taught over 30 lessons into ten packed but digestible lessons. i enjoyed the energy and information flow from this round, and so:
the next cycle of FORKED TONGUES will be held 12-2pm pacific beginning saturday, november 1, and meet for ten saturdays in a row (which takes us to january 3!). we’ll cover all of american history, from creation to the present.
and finally, i’ve been hard at work condensing my uranus in gemini research into a six-part class called THE TOWER. we’ll meet 4-6 pm pacific, beginning november 1 and continuing for six weeks.
in terms of the finances, i want to make these offerings as accessible as possible. here’s how we’re doing that:
each class is offered for $333 or three payments of $111. using the returning client discount code bring that total down to $187 or three payments of $63.
if you are interested in multiple classes, you can bundle them! and yes, you can stack this with the returning client code. contact me directly for the codes to register for bundle pricing.
bundle pricing options:
registering for two classes? buy one, get one half off! this brings the total cost from $666 to $499, or three equal payments of $166. combined with the returning client code, this takes the total for two classes from $374 to $280, or three equal payments of $93.
want to take all three classes? buy two, get one free! this brings the total cost from $999 to $666, or three equal payments of $222. combined with the returning client code, you can take all three classes for as little as $372 or three payments of $124.
please contact me directly for coupon codes for bundle pricing rates. you can reply to this email or message alex@ishpimingastrology.com. note: instagram messages often end up in spam! unless we’ve messaged before, email is your best bet for getting ahold of me.
all classes also have one slot open for a full scholarship. you can apply for scholarships for all three classes here.
all returning clients, students, and circle participants are encouraged to use their returning client discount code, and to message me if they need it again.
if we haven’t met yet, my name’s alex, and i’ll be leading y’all through this material. i’m an indigenous astrologer based in the pacific northwest, and in my daytime life, i teach middle school history at a tribal school. i’ve been an astrologer for five years and opened my practice ISHPIMING ASTROLOGY in 2022.
these classes all feel like the culmination of different aspects of my work, attempting to bridge the gap between native american culture, american history, and western astrology.
CREATION IS A CANCER RISING feels like a masterclass in the ways i interweave my culture and the stories i carry in my relationships with the planets. in this course, i share the nativities of many native americans i admire and respect. i’m really grateful for the opportunity to share this material with the astrological community. CREATION IS A CANCER RISING meets 8-10 am pacific on saturdays starting november 1, 2025.
FORKED TONGUES is my signature astrohistory class, where we follow all of american history from creation to the present day. the course structure is modeled after a typical american history survey, with the yearlong material condensed into ten lessons. FORKED TONGUES meets 12-2pm pacific on saturdays starting november 1, 2025.
THE TOWER is a new class i’m offering, based in the need to understand and be with uranus’ ingress into gemini. this transit is always loud in euro-american history, so we’ll follow the five previous periods and spend our final meeting together making game plans for chaos mitigation in our current period. THE TOWER meets 4-6pm on saturday starting november 1, 2025.
a student in a previous cohort of FORKED TONGUES has said: “i feel so grateful to have found your work, a true lantern to guide the path onwards.”
i hope you’ll join me for one, two, or all three of these classes. if you have questions, please reach out.
i am grateful for the ability to do my work with you all. thank you for being here, thank you for bringing your heart and your spirit into this space with me.
let’s spiral into the future together.
aho, miigwetch. thank you.
talk soon,
alex
