This leads to deeper understanding of personal needs\, karmic obstacles and self-realization. \n\nStudents identify the four purusharta (purpose\, income\, family and freedom) pillars are in their own birth-chart.\nDuring the workshop\, students use their birth-chart to identify basic level needs (income and security) and what are blocking obstacles.\nWe discuss strategies and problem solving leading to refinement and authentic self-actualization.\nDiscover the aspects of your life’s purpose that help you realize love\, service and mastery.\n\nRealizing truth is a basic need leading to more humane\, refined states of consciousness and action in the world.\n\n REGISTER NOW | CLICK HERE URL:https://vashonrider.com/event/vedic-astrology-know-your-soul/ LOCATION:Vashon Rider Massage & Consulting\, 17425 Vashon Hiway\, Vashon\, WA\, 98070\, United States END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20171026T183000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20171026T193000 DTSTAMP:20260430T141513 CREATED:20171016T115744Z LAST-MODIFIED:20171016T120017Z UID:539-1509042600-1509046200@vashonrider.com SUMMARY:Power Water Aerobics DESCRIPTION:Free to VAC members – Check for non-member fee:  Build strength and power in the pool without impact on your joints.
