Mythic Dark Goddess Asteroids
Mythic Dark Goddess Asteroids
Pre-Gathering Workshop: Friday 9am - 12pm
“She changes everything she touches and everything she touches changes”
Persephone, Hekate, Lilith, Medusa, Medea, Circe, Kaali, the Fates and the Furies area are all emanations of the Dark Goddess of the dark moon phase. Historically she has been feared, denied, and exiled. As the feminine shadow, this archetype can represent repressed and thereby toxic contents of the unconscious that can erupt in disturbing ways. However, deep reserves of hidden wisdom lie in her magical mystery of transformation – the power to change one thing into another.
Discover where these asteroids are in your chart and how they impact you and your relationships. Use these insights to redeem the inner dark feminine and access the potency of her regenerative energies.
Limited space for this 3hr Pre-Gathering workshop with Demetra George!
Sign-ups include a personalised asteroid report for each participant.
Personal Bio:
Demetra George, scholar, translator, and practitioner, brings the practice of contemporary astrology back to its ancient roots. Early in her career with the publication of Asteroid Goddesses (1986), she looked to cross-cultural mythologies to draw out the archetypal meanings and psychological expression of newly available planetary bodies. She then turned to Greek and Latin texts, articulating the history, cosmology, and techniques of traditional astrology. Author of seven books, her most recent is Ancient Astrology in Theory and Practice: A Manual of Traditional Techniques, Vols. 1 &2 (Rubedo Press, 2019,2022).

The Progressed Dark Moon Phase
The Progressed Dark Moon Phase
Within successive thirty-year cycles, everyone, at a different age, passes through a 3 ½ year progressed Balsamic dark moon lunation phase. On an ordinary level, this can be a time of loss of identity, relationships, and clear direction. However, when viewed through the lens of night vision, these liminal intervals are rich with spiritual and metaphysical insights, psychological soul work, creative potential, and regenerative healing. Identify and reframe your balsamic dark nights of the soul.

Neptune and the Akashic Records
The ancients understood the music of the spheres—the celestial harmony that shapes our world—and this timeless wisdom is resurfacing as we reconnect with the rhythms of the universe. The planets act as conductors, guiding the symphony of existence, while we are the orchestra, interpreting their celestial cues. At the heart of this symphony lies the Akashic Field—a universal archive of every thought, action, and possibility—a timeless composition that unites planetary rhythms with our earthly instrument.
“We are the music-makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams.” ~ “Ode” by Arthur O’Shaughnessy
Personal Bio:
Merryman Cassels is a vibrational astrologer, Akashic Records reader, beekeeper, and eternal student of the shamanic wisdom of the bee. Living among the luminous red rocks of Sedona, Arizona, she blends planetary symbolism, mythic storytelling, and Akashic insight to offer poetic, practical guidance for the soul’s unfolding.
She is the creator of the Astrology IRL series, a collection of calendar journals designed to help people live and learn their astrology in real life. Titles in the series include The Shamanic Wisdom of the Bees, Astrology IRL for the Ambitious Entrepreneur, and Astrology IRL for Recovery and Codependency. Each volume invites readers into a grounded and magical relationship with the sky, encouraging daily reflection, intention-setting, and cosmic alignment.
With a lifelong fascination for sacred geometry and the illuminated patterns of the universe, Merryman incorporates vibrational astrology, and Trans-Neptunian aspects to reveal the harmonic blueprints shaping our lives. Her work is deeply relational, integrating the personal with the planetary, the practical with the mystical.
She regularly offers talks—including recent presentations like Neptune’s Quill and Neptune and the Akashic Records—writes weekly horoscopes for the Sedona Center for the New Age, and is currently developing a subscription offering and visionary app to support others in dreaming the new world into being through astrology and Akashic connection.

Coming soon!
Personal Bio:
Sheera Kretzmann is an LMT, 200hr Yoga Teacher, Herbalist, Sound Healer, and Location Astrologer. Her Astrological Journey first began when she was in Middle School and was gifted a book by her mother called “Sun & Moon Signs, an Astrological Guide to Love, Career, and Destiny” by Marisa St. Clair. From there, she became widely interested in Astrology buying a plethora of Liz Greene, Erin Sullivan, and Demetra George books.
In 2018, Sheera decided to start taking Astrology more seriously and bought the AFA course, but didn’t complete it as another form of Astrology really captured her eye. She came across Jeffrey Wolf Green’s “Pluto” book which spoke to her during that time of her life. She then bought his DVD course and started her Journey into Evolutionary Astrology. Having practiced this for a couple of years, there was a longing for something that she would feel extremely passionate about… when low and behold an interesting book by Erin Sullivan was re-printed called “Where in the World? Astro*Cart*Graphy & Relocation” in 2021.
Sheera was absolutely FASCINATED by “The Psychology of Astro*Carto*Graphy” and the Astro Map Kit from Jim Lewis (developer and creator of ACG). While learning, so many more things clicked on how she experienced her life where she was born/grew up from a Location Astrology perspective. It gave her the sense that she finally discovered the missing puzzle piece as to why her life played out the way it did. This led her to wanting to take it to the next level, so she enrolled in Kepler College’s Astro*Carto*Graphy program and was taught by the incredible Karen McCauley in 2022.
Today, Sheera is a firm believer that your location of birth is the energetic blueprint of your world written through the stars. That no matter where we are on Earth, the planets follow us and give us a different perspective on how our lives will unfold. Therefore, giving the understanding on how one can change their life by changing their location.
