“Fascinating lecture on Medical Astrology. By far, this is the most interesting and helpful lecture I have experienced in all the astrology courses that I have taken. I see now the reason that so many other astrologers recommend you.”

“The charts and lists and processes that Kira has put together were really helpful. I love Kira's way of teaching, she does a good job of bringing ideas together in an understandable way."

“I found the techniques of chart assessment most valuable from this lecture. As a student if astrology, and more recently homeopathy, being able to put the two together has been really great for me."

I loved the whole course. I have always been hesitant to go into health in a chart as I don't feel as comfortable and knowledgeable . This class has much to help me learn and your teaching style is so right for me"

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 class, I walk you through the exact steps I use 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.

“I attended to apply knowledge to my astrology practice. Personally, I was also able to look at my chart and see my constitution. The most valuable learning was what to look for first."  

"This was great for my understanding. I'm a visual learner so the charts, drawings and examples were very helpful to my "getting it". I'm now testing my learning on my friends and family charts."

“I enjoyed all of the conversation on the 6th house. I have many planets there, so it was very beneficial.It has increased my self-awareness and helped me to keep moving along on my healing journey."

“That it was practical information and it deepened my knowledge. It was interesting and easy to follow - it was exactly what I was looking for."

“Once again, Kira has done an amazing job getting complex material across in a fun and insightful way. I'm always pleased with the information from any class I take from Kira."
