Health Assessment Through the Natal Chart
SEPTEMBER 2025
Lecture Duration: 2 hours
Presenter: Kira Sutherland – Medical Astrologer, Naturopath, Herbalist.
Level: Beginner-friendly
Understand Your Constitution Through Your Birth Chart
Medical astrology has been used for centuries to assess health. While decumbiture charts look at the moment of illness, your natal chart reveals the energetic blueprint you were born with — your vitality, constitutional strengths, vulnerabilities, and the body systems that may need extra care.
In this practical, no-fluff class, Kira walks you through the exact steps she uses to assess constitution via the natal chart. You’ll come away with a clear framework you can apply for yourself, your family, or your clients.
In this two-hour masterclass, we'll cover:
Natal Chart vs Decumbiture
- A concise history of medical astrology, why constitutional assessment matters, and how natal charts support prevention and long-term wellbeing.
Signs & The Body
- Zodiac–anatomy correspondences, how placements flag tendencies in specific body parts/systems, and why Cardinal/Fixed/Mutable qualities shape health patterns.
Planetary Health Signatures
- Planet–organ rulerships and what they look like in practice, and how supportive vs challenging aspects modify themes.
Elements & Modalities – The Energetic Lens
- Reading Fire/Earth/Air/Water distribution, spotting excesses/deficiencies, and using modalities to understand stress response and adaptability.
Core Chart Factors for Health
- Ascendant & 1st House: physical constitution, body type, baseline vitality
- Ruler of the Ascendant: your constitutional “key” planet
- Sun: life force and core energy system
- Moon: physical rhythms, digestion, hormonal balance, emotional tone
- 6th House & ruler: daily habits, work–health balance, chronic patterns
- 8th & 12th Houses & rulers: heredity, detox pathways, hidden weaknesses, hospitalisation risks
- Other houses of note: when and how the rest of the wheel weighs in
Practical Application & Scope of Practice
- A demonstration of a simple assessment workflow on a sample chart that you can repeat.
- How to use insights for personal awareness or client support (within complementary, non-diagnostic bounds).
This lecture is ideal for:
- Astrology Students ready to move beyond “Sun-sign health tips” into structured constitutional work
- Holistic Health Practitioners (naturopaths, herbalists, counsellors, bodyworkers) adding an astrological lens to client care
- Curious Beginners who want a grounded, useful introduction to medical astrology
No prior knowledge of astrology is required. This is a beginner-friendly introduction.
Please note: This training is educational and complementary. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace medical advice. Always consult a qualified health professional for personal medical concerns.
