No Bad Charts: Astrology-Informed IFS with Sarah Temel

What if your birth chart could help you find the parts of you longing to be witnessed? What if the stars weren’t about prediction—but about reflection? In this rich and expansive conversation, I’m joined by Sarah Temel, licensed trauma therapist, IFS practitioner, and founder of No Bad Charts, to explore the deeply supportive intersection of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and evolutionary astrology. ____________________________ We dive into: 🌙 How astrology-informed IFS uses the birth chart as a fluid map of your soul’s lesson plan 🌙 How to use chart placements to identify trailheads, parts, legacy burdens, and Self-energy 🌙 The meaning of the twelve Houses and how they reflect different areas of life and parts of the psyche 🌙 Why no chart is a bad chart, and how astrology can be a tool for self-reflection, compassion, and curiosity 🌙 Reflective questions that help integrate astrology and IFS in personal and clinical work   This episode is an invitation to meet your system with more clarity and compassion, using the ancient language of the stars with the grounded wisdom of IFS. Whether you’re astrology-curious or already fluent, Sarah’s insight will deepen your appreciation for both modalities!   Plus, Sarah uses my birth chart as examples during the conversation and no surprise, my mind was BLOWN away by what she shares.  I'm so excited for you to listen in!   ________________________ ✨ Meet Our Guest: Sarah Temel, LCSW Sarah is an IFS-trained, licensed trauma therapist passionate about the intersection of human spirituality and healing from adversity.
