Navigating Fate & Friction
​
Malefics, Timing & Remediation
​Mini Course
Navigating Fate & Friction is a Lumen Arcana intensive devoted to understanding the places in the natal chart where pressure, conflict, and karmic tension reside. Rather than treating malefics, difficult houses, or challenging time periods as problems to fear, this training reframes them as initiatory thresholds within the architecture of fate.
You will learn how to diagnose complexity with technical precision, examining planetary condition, sect, timing techniques, and activating transits, while also developing a mature and ethical approach to remediation. The course also introduces the deeper symbolic layer of the decans and their tarot correspondences, and intro to astrological magic, offering a glimpse into the living spirit beneath each placement and methods for healing.
Designed for serious students of astrology, this intensive serves both as a powerful standalone mastery experience and as a gateway into the full Lumen Arcana Formation.
