Astrology is based on the principle that our bodies and psyches are microcosms of the cosmos. Modern medical astrology takes that a step further, contending that planetary patterns are mirrored in our physiological and psychological tendencies.
Modern medical astrology doesn’t diagnose illness. Its focus is on assessing constitutional strengths and susceptibilities. From a medical-astrology perspective, the chart is a map of vitality, vulnerabilities and healing potentials and offers insight into the body's terrain—not what will happen, but what is prone to getting out of balance.
What you’ll learn in this workshop:
• Constitutional assessment (vs. diagnostic astrology)
• How to apply ancient techniques to assess a person’s general constitution and strengths of different body systems or organs.
• How each planet, sign and house rules specific organs, systems and psychological tendencies—e.g., Mars and inflammation, Virgo and digestion, the 6th house and chronic conditions, and more.
• How the four elements express themselves physically: fire as metabolism and inflammation; earth as structure and digestion; air as the nervous and respiratory systems; water as fluids, emotions and immunity.
• What a missing or dominant element means for vitality, illness predisposition and resilience.
• Why each person is born with certain weaknesses and where to find them in the chart to better support overall health.
• A new “language” to apply medical understanding to a natal chart, which is different from psychological astrology. From there, you can apply psychological interpretation to support a person’s spiritual and emotional health while also supporting the physical.
An interactive introductory workshop designed for astrology students and holistic health practitioners eager to integrate astrology into their practice—or anyone curious about including energetic principles into their wellness rituals.
A focus on practical applications rather than an avalanche of astrological theory.
Insights into how astrology correlates with the body’s systems, strengths and imbalances.
Patient workshop leaders and plenty of time for your questions

Meet your teacher…
Kira Sutherland, BHSc, Grad Dip Sports Nutrition, is an American-born, Australian-based astrologer, naturopath, nutritionist and herbalist who divides her time between Sydney, Australia, and the mountains of British Columbia, Canada. She dedicates her time to client consultations, writing, and lecturing on health, well-being and medical astrology.
Recognized for her vibrant and direct approach, Kira has lectured internationally on medical astrology and has been in clinical practice for three decades. She beautifully integrates her expertise in natural medicine with her passion for medical astrology, creating a comprehensive mind-body medicine approach.
Kira reflects on her journey: “During my formal studies in naturopathy, herbal medicine and nutrition in the early 1990s, I felt a gap in the Western traditions for a system that assessed a person's energetics. Many of my peers were exploring Traditional Chinese Medicine or Ayurveda for a more holistic perspective. Discovering that astrology also had an ancient connection to health assessment resonated deeply with me; it provided the energetic understanding I had been seeking.
“Today, both natural medicine and medical astrology are integral to my practice. I am thrilled to share this ancient wisdom and introduce you to a remarkable system for understanding both your own health and that of those you support professionally.”
Workshop host Suzanne Gerber comes by her obsession with healthy living naturally thanks to her Virgo Moon, six planets in her sixth house and Chiron conjunct her MC. “I love working with and learning from Kira,” she says, “who always teaches me something new and relevant to what’s going on in my life at the moment.”
