What is the Saturn Return?
The Saturn Return is a major astrological life transition characterised by challenge, limitation and boundaries which is experienced by all of us as we enter our 30s. Often described in quite negative and oppositional terms this course will allow you to see your Saturn Return for what it really is; an opportunity for growth, healthy expansion and deeper understanding of your authentic self, allowing you to set your own true direction forward for the next 30 years.
Who is the Uphill Embrace for?
Anyone born between February 1991 and February 1999*
Anyone seeking to understand themselves in the context of something bigger. While psychology and therapy are valuable tools they place all emphasis on the individual and individual experiences. The Uphill Embrace places our experiences within the greater context of astrology, myth and alchemy and as a group practice allows for contrast, comparison and support from others’ experiences.
Anyone who is curious to understand the challenges and obstacles they have encountered so far through the lens of Astrology
Anyone who desires to take care of and nurture themselves in order to become the truest version of themselves they can be
Anyone in pursuit of self-development
Anyone who enjoys learning in a group setting

Have you find yourself meeting patterns of behaviour or experience time and time again? Are you ready to do the digging to understand what it is your soul wants you to experience and learn through being in these patterns? This can be the “sick of myself” stage where you’ve gained some clarity on your patterns but are still within them. The Uphill Embrace can help you shift the boulders in your way.
Be warned: the Uphill Embrace is not for you if you are looking for a quick fix.
This programme is to be seen as one leg of a long journey which we ultimately all travel on alone. This is for you if you feel ready to be supported, in community and receiving guidance for this stage of your evolution.
Ask yourself; are you already on this journey? If yes, then The Uphill Embrace may be perfectly timed to support you on your ascent.
What does the Uphill Embrace consist of?
Seven 90 minute online teaching sessions
Two group summiting sessions to facilitate integration of learnings
An introductory 15 minute 1-on-1 with Katie to orient yourself within the course
Your full birth chart for reflection and study
Personal Saturn cycle key dates (squares, oppositions, trines and sextiles) mapped across your life
Breakout rooms to share and learn from others who have walked their Saturn Return
Stories and teachings that make Saturn’s wisdom tangible
Space for questions + personalised insights from Katie during weekly office hours
Reflection guides
A community space to discuss with like-minded people going through a similar experience.
This course is not about bracing for the challenges of Saturn Return - it’s about looking back with understanding and stepping forward with confidence. You’ll explore the lessons Saturn has already delivered, find clarity in the patterns of your past, and learn how to carry this wisdom into the next phase of your life. Just as the Saturn Return is not a once-off occurrence but the culmination of a cyclical process so too can this course benefit people most not just during but also before or after their return.
