Sun at 29 Pisces, I am a yogi and now love astrology!

Hey everyone,
It's fun to introduce myself in an astrological format! First time... I was born a couple of hours before the Spring Equinox, I have a grand cross in the fixed signs with my lunar nodes, and my north node is conjunct Regulus :) I have been a yoga teacher for 20 years and got into astrology around 3 years ago. I had a great reading and it changed my life.
I've started blending my yoga teaching with astrology and I've been making free videos for the new and full moons. My latest video is https://youtu.be/WxGuPx3m2ec I'm four months into making these videos and would love feedback if anyone is interested. Also, not sure where to share my videos, which subject it would fall under for people who might be interested to find it. Anyway, I am loving exploring the intersection between yoga and astrology. Has anyone else ventured into this territory? Or mixed astrology with something else you were already doing?
I can't believe how spot on the astrology is. I follow Molly McCord and Rick Levine on YouTube.
Thanks for reading!
Peace,
Elizabeth

after posting a certain number of comments
not that many

keep in mind that because ours is an astrological learning forum
where members practice astrological skills free
no one is paid therefore responses to threads
are often from members who are beginners
with little or no experience
keen to learn by practice
members are encouraged to discuss interpreting their own charts to learn by practice
we also have members with many years of astrological study completed
members have day jobs
and those of our members who are professionals
do not provide a complete professional reading for free

and
our forum hosts BOTH perspectives ON SEPARATE BOARDS

our TRADITIONAL ASTROLOGY ONLY board
is at
http://www.astrologyweekly.com/forum...splay.php?f=92

For discussions on Traditional Astrology only.
Note: Typically, traditional astrology is defined as using techniques developed prior to 1700 by astrologers from the Hellenistic, Persian, Hebrew, and Renaissance eras.
Specifically it relies on Ptolemaic aspects sextile, trine, square, opposition and conjunction
and excludes modern planets Neptune, Uranus and Pluto
non-Ptolemaic aspects, as well as any asteroids.
The focus is less on what would be considered modern psychological chart interpretation
and more on prediction.
Members who wish to explore a combination of traditional and modern ideas
should feel free to start a new thread in an appropriate forum for further discussion.

our MODERNIST ASTROLOGY ONLY board
is at https://www.astrologyweekly.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=95
For discussions on Modern Astrology only.
Note: Typically, modern astrology is defined as using techniques developed around the late 1800s by Theosophists.
Specifically it relies on psychological, evolutionary, karmic, and non-western interpretation approaches
and includes Neptune, Uranus and Pluto
and non-Ptolemaic aspects.
The focus is more on psychological chart interpretation instead of prediction.

Thank you, Tim. In the videos I show the astrological chart for the new or full moon and discuss the aspects so I'd say definitely astrological. I'm not sure people who want a yoga class are interested in a chart interpretation but I'm doing it! I think my audience might be very specific but when I started teaching yoga 20 years ago it wasn't as "big" as it is now so I have hopes that in a few years it'll take off. Anyway, thanks for your reply!
All the best,
Elizabeth

Elizabeth,

Welcome to the AW Forum! As long as your videos are at least partly astrological, share them in the "Recommendations" Forum. If they are not astrological, post them in the "Chat" Forum.

Welcoming,

Tim

If you're self promoting, the only place that's allowed is the Advertising forum, a subforum of Recommendations. Especially if you stand to make any money, either from the videos themselves or from what they lead to. I moved your Recommendations post there for that reason. Even if what you're offering is free content, it's still self promotion.

You may also create a signature with a link to your channel. Similar to how I have a link to my blog and website.

Other than that, this forum isn't a place to promote yourself. Your participation is welcome, but it needs to be about what's going on in this forum, not with an aim to driving traffic to your channel. I see your other posts have been exactly that.

I thought this forum was predicated on the values of free enterprise and self-expression?

Self expression, yes, as long as it's within the forum rules. Free enterprise? We're not a commercial site, not a self promotion site, and need not to be treated as one. I'm not saying the OP is treating us as one, but people try every now and then. That's why we limit the ways self promotion is allowed.

Back to letting her introduce herself and be welcomed!
 
I do appreciate these concerns. I will post future videos in Advertising if that's what the forum moderators deem appropriate. There is a line between self-promotion and sharing in a community and if I crossed that line I understand the discomfort which it may cause. I also hear the need for openness and welcoming in a place like this where everyone wants the right to be heard. The issue of self-promotion is very interesting to me.
As I said my north node is conjunct Regulus and it's in my highest interest to share my offerings with a spirit of generosity. I spent a long time in the performing arts and struggled with feelings around me being the 'product.' YT brings up some of these same issues. I wonder anyone here on this forum has felt similar challenges, too? Maybe it's an issue of confidence that when one passes along one's knowledge the self is mostly a transparent vehicle rather than the container of such knowledge. I believe that I have a unique voice to offer, I also want and need to have financial stability although I'm only losing money on my YT videos and I haven't had any prospects of gaining money from it yet! My best estimate is that it'll take between two and ten years of consistent free posts before I make money as a YouTuber (I'm not much of a business woman lol).
I think that financial and self-promotion issues are often easier for men than women, who because of societal conditioning have a harder time having confidence in their offerings as legitimate and valuable.
I wholeheartedly welcome further discussion.
Thank you,
Elizabeth

It's a whole other topic, really. And worth discussing. It's an interesting issue to me, too, completely aside from my moderator's duty to enforce the forum's rules on it.

Hell yes!

I'm in a similar position with my astrology and blog. I do have the occasional paying client, but it's not that self sustaining.

That, in fact, could be a Recommendations topic in itself: how do people recommend working with these issues?
 
Tim, I checked out the website in your signature and really enjoyed the step by step guide. It gave me some new insights into my chart. Thanks!

Have fun while you Research, Study and Vigilantly Practice! :smile:


these are instructions
HOW TO ATTACH A CHART
TO YOUR POST ON THE FORUM

https://horoscopes.astro-seek.com/traditional-astrology

MOBILE
1) Once you generate the chart image using your favourite website, copy the image address
2) Upload the image to Imgur using the following URL:

https://imgur.com/upload
3) Once the chart is uploaded to Imgur, click on 'Copy' or 'Embed Post'
4) Paste the Imgur image location to forum post

Quote:
DESKTOP
1) Once you generate the chart image using your favourite website, copy the image address
2) Click on the Attachment icon (if you don't see it, select 'Advanced' posting first)
3) New window will open, paste the image address, click Upload button, close the window

if that is for some reason not possible
then
another option is, after creating the natal chart
then save the chart to your desktop
then when on the thread click to edit your post
then scroll down to the Attach Files box
then click on Manage Attachments
and follow the instructions on the screen to upload your chart that way :smile:
