Inner Landscape
An empowering and healing journey studying
the system of BAZI astrology.
It is an immense pleasure to invite you to join me
for this very special journey…
BAZI 八字, translating as “eight characters”, is an ancient system, influenced by the principles of astrology. In this system, our natal chart is consisting of four pillars, each composed of one heavenly stem & one earthly branch, forming a chart made of eight characters.
A “pillar” is the unification of heavenly and earthly influence – and can be associated to either an hour, day, month, or year. Pillars are formed according to an ancient time keeping system, the ganzhi 干支.
There are 60 pillars in total.
In this timekeeping system, every hour, day, month and year are associated with a pillar, helping us understand the composition and quality of the qi (life force), in a specific moment in time. Therefore, the calculation and study of a natal chart and its pillars help us understand the composition and quality of the qi (life force) of a person, as well as how different phases of our life influenced (or will influence) the chart holder.
Through the lens of the BAZI astrology system, we see how the qi is moving within the internal world — how it moves, where it moves, where it is strong, where it is stagnant, and how the strength can inform the weakness.
When we study a BAZI chart, we shed the light on its elemental composition, its energy imprint, where the life force has a tendency to get stuck, where it is strong and fluid, while also exploring the unconscious, the invisible parts awaiting to become visible and be integrated.
The BAZI astrology system gives indications on the influences of different phases of our life, our generation, our ancestors, our upbringing, our parental figures, how we relate to the feminine & the masculine, what enlivens our ambition, our sense of responsibility, our dharma & service to the world, what could be our ideal career, our sense of self (or any confusion around the sense of self), our intimate relationships, how we relate to sexuality, potential clashes and harmful patterns in our life, how we relate to our secret hopes and dreams — and essentially, how we can make the most of everything composing us, the most attuned decisions, in alignment
with our creative force.
Studying BAZI can also help us understanding the auspiciousness of timing, as well as reminding us that we all have specific strength available to us at any time, if we are willing to carry our gifts into right actions.
It is my hope that this course and intimate journey will be empowering and healing, in many ways — helping you to develop more compassion for yourself and others, while cultivating more self-aware,
supported by community, and nature.
