OPPORTUNITIES
Astro Coaching School | Sisterbride | Sept. 14 - Dec. 14, 2024
A 3-month training for aspiring/professional mystics, therapists and healers looking for astrologically informed coaching & counseling skills to accelerate their practice or help them gain the confidence to start one. This is also for non-practitioners: artists, activists or astrology lovers seeking a transformative group-coaching journey. Each participant will engage with this curriculum by resourcing their own astrological chart, planet by planet... We meet bi-weekly for three months, each with 4.5 hours of live-online sessions. There will also be an additional practicum week and six optional community care gatherings. All sessions are recorded for absentees.* This is trauma-informed and somatically based astrology that seeks to offer a solid understanding of how to help a client/chart move through tough times, access more resiliency and open up to their superpowers. slidingscale
Submit to Pearl Press | Issue No. 22
Pearl Press is an online publication that strives to build a proud community of diverse voices in photography and writing. They release bimonthly issues around themed open calls; this month's open call is 'golden hour.' Submissions close on August 9, 2024 by midnight. The concept for Issue No. 22 is ‘golden hour.’ Much like the sun, we are constantly in a transitional period. A small window where we can decide to let things go or take action before the sun sets or rises and a new day begins production. A time to appreciate the beauty around us in its ravishing glow; a warmth that holds us. Send in old work, new work, anything that might feel right. Send an email to ‘contact.pearlpress@gmail.com’ with your written or visual work; include your name, a short bio, title and description of the work. If you are sending visual work, make sure it is at least 300 dpi. If you are submitting written work, please send as a PDF. There is no max or min amount of work you can send, but keep in mind that only some of the work might be selected. Some work from each issue will be displayed on @pearl.press as well, so include a website and Instagram handle if applicable! Thank you and happy submitting!
