In part 2 of the astrology series, Aleka explains each sign, from Aries to Pisces, explaining how your sun sign is less about who you are and more about who you are meant to be.

You are probably familiar with the phrase, “What you believe you perceive”. What does it really mean? Is it an accurate statement?

In recovery circles there is much emphasis on healing our wounded places and transforming our “negative” feelings. Yet, there is little focus on working with our more “positive” ones. The truth is, to really experience the wholeness of our potential; we need to do as much work on our joy as we do on our pain.

Part one of the series explores the terms codependency and counter dependency and how these coping strategies can keep us stuck in dysfunctional past patters that  block real intimacy.

Go a bit deeper into how these dysfunctional patterns of co- and counter dependency can show up in our relationships, and just how they can keep us from the lasting connection we so crave. We will illuminate what is no longer working for us so we can directly address it and transform it.
