Astrology
What is Astrology?
Astrology is a range of divinatory practices which have been around since the 18th century. These practices can help to discern information about human affairs and terrestrial events by studying the apparent positions of the planets. Most of us love to learn about ourselves! Astrology does just that - we have different signs and are affected by different planets at different times. We at Playa Negra Yoga love Astrology. We host moon ceremonies nearly every new and full moon. We are happy to announce our affiliation with Maia Velarde and her insightful readings.
