A Center for Natural Healing

The Saturn-Jupiter conjunction on December 20, 2020 initiated a powerful influence on the planet as well as our individual lives. This past week we invited our dear friend Rasha Hasan to, a remarkable astrologer, hypnotherapist and Reiki practitioner, as well as President of the San Francisco Astrological Society to join us on the @naturalhealingpodcast to clarify what this change means for our lives. In this interview, she shares her personal journey to discovering her purp...ose from watching the stars from her rooftop during the warm Summers living under a dictatorship in war-torn Baghdad to her immigration to the United States to finally following her calling. Not only will you be inspired by Rasha’s journey, but you’ll also learn tangible ways to leverage this year’s astrology for your personal development.
