The Sun, Moon, and Ascendant, also known as your primal triad, represent a large proportion of who you are.

What is The Primal Triad?

Your birth chart is the key to understanding yourself in astrology. A quality reading starts with grasping your Sun, Moon, and Ascendant—the Primal Triad or Big 3. They set the stage for deeper insights. Before exploring other chart placements, mastering these is crucial; they form the core of your being. Like the spearhead of an arrow, the Primal Triad guides you toward the bull's eye of a purposeful life. With this in mind, I've been inspired to create a unique offering tailored to empower you in establishing a sturdy foundation upon which to deepen your astrological wisdom.

SUN

Just like the Sun is the star of our solar system, it’s the star of your chart. By learning the sign and house placement of your Sun, you will learn how to enhance your vitality, maintain your sanity, and honor your authenticity.

MOON

When the Sun goes down, the Moon comes up. You probably know what your Sun sign is, but knowing your Moon sign–and its house placement–is just as important to learn because it will help you understand how to cultivate happiness, nourish yourself, and return to emotional equilibrium.

ASCENDANT

Also known as your rising sign, the Ascendant isn’t even a celestial object, it’s a mathematical point in your chart, but it’s not a placement to sleep on. By learning how to best operate in the world–indicative of your Ascendant’s sign–you gain insights into how to self-actualize.

Testimonial

“The Primal Triad was the perfect course to dive into astrology whether you are totally new or have been exploring for years. I’ve worked with Andre multiple times over the last year 1:1 and love his practical approach to giving you the opportunity to evolve over and over through his gentle yet straightforward approach to leading you to awareness. As with his 1:1 work, The Primal Triad makes everything simple, easy to digest, and always applicable to your life giving you ways to leave empowered and ready to take action in your life. I was very impressed with how informative & applicable all of this information was even after all the astrology courses and mentorship I’ve done. The visuals make it interactive & I left feeling excited about who I am, excited & proud about who I’m becoming. Lastly, I loved that you can use it to understand and dive into others' charts/astrological makeup around you to create more harmony, appreciation & understanding in your relationships. Thanks for always giving me the opportunity to elevate, Andre.”

Unlock The Power of Your Primal Triad

What’s your sign? You most likely know the answer to this question. How about the sign of your Moon? Or the sign of your Ascendant? Every planet in the solar system is in a particular sign and has something meaningful to say about who you are, however, learning about your primal triad is critical in developing a solid understanding of your essence. 

You can go down so many rabbit holes in studying your birth chart, but if you don’t know how to interpret the placements of your big 3 because you’re busy trying to understand your Black Moon Lilith, Chiron, or Venus, for that matter, then you’re doing yourself a disservice. I don’t mean to bully those three, I believe they can further deepen our self-awareness, but the primal triad holds greater significance for our life path.

By understanding your Sun placement, you will know how and where you’re here to shine brightly so that you can live with zest. By knowing your Moon placement, you will know how and where you’re here to honor your emotional, non-rational needs so that you can nurture your happiness and well-being. By learning about your Ascednant’s sign, you will know what’s your most optimal stylistic interface to fulfill your gifts and potential.

The Sun, Moon, and Ascendant: these three placements pave the way for a profound life. While I encourage exploring the entirety of the birth chart—which I'll be diving into more deeply in future offerings—understanding the primal triad holds immense value. Knowing their placements will help you enhance your vitality, cultivate joy, and learn how to self-actualize.

IN AN ENDLESS SEA OF INFORMATION, ONE CAN GET LOST AS TO WHERE TO EVEN BEGIN LEARNING THE COMPLEX LANGUAGE OF ASTROLOGY. I MADE THIS COURSE TO SIMPLIFY THAT PROCESS AND HELP YOU ESTABLISH A SOLID FOUNDATION TO CONTINUE BUILDING YOUR ASTROLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE. YOU’LL GAIN PROFOUND INSIGHTS IN THIS COURSE AND WILL HAVE A GREAT TIME DOING SO. 

Course Structure

Embark on a self-discovery journey to unravel the intricacies of your Primal Triad through this step-by-step course.

The Sun, Moon, and Ascendant 

Firstly, we’ll delve into the core elements, your Big 3. In astrology, the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant represent crucial psychological functions. We'll explore the individual significance of these three essential symbols, equipping you with the knowledge to apply their meanings within the context of signs and houses.

The 12 Signs 

Moving forward, our focus shifts to understanding the signs. To truly grasp the nuances of the 12 signs, we'll categorize and dissect them. You'll gain insight into their evolutionary goals, optimal strategies for achieving these aims, supportive resources, and their shadow sides. These signs infuse the Primal Triad with values, drives, and agendas.

The 12 Houses 

Our exploration extends to the houses—a symbolic representation in astrology that illuminates specific arenas of life where the Sun and Moon prominently manifest. While the signs fuel the psychological functions represented by the Primal Triad, it is within the houses that the behaviors of the Sun and Moon become observable.

The Art of Astrology

Finally, we culminate our journey by synthesizing the three fundamental components of astrology—the planets (in this course, the Primal Triad), the signs, and the houses—to interpret and derive meaning, fostering a deeper understanding of ourselves. Within this final section, we immerse ourselves in the essence of astrology—an art that thrives on the fusion and interpretation of these celestial symbols. Through the exploration of charts belonging to notable figures, we'll uncover insightful correlations and applications, enriching our comprehension of these astrological symbols.

Testimonial

“The Primal Triad course with Andre offers an abundance of knowledge and information that has helped me to more fully understand astrology as a whole (rather than simply through the lens of "pop astrology") and, most importantly, has offered me a peek into my own personal place in the cosmos. 

After completing the Primal Triad Course I feel armed with the awareness of my personal imprint on the stars.  I feel empowered by the knowledge I received regarding my personal Primal Triad and how I can best utilize the information to create positive change in my life.  The most powerful take-away has been the feeling of deep love and compassion for myself now knowing and understanding that the events of my life are not random and that I have a deep purpose here in this life that is written in the stars! 

Andre's wisdom served as a beautiful compass in guiding me to a deeper understanding of who I am. I am extremely grateful to have taken this course and I would highly recommend The Primal Triad to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the stars and their own unique place in the Universe.”

FAQ

  • A 3.5+ hour-long video course designed to help you understand the sign and house placement of your Sun and Moon, and the sign that your Ascendant is in. In learning about your Primal Triad, you will gain clarity about how to enhance your vitality (Sun), cultivate joy (Moon), and learn how one can fulfill his or her potential (Ascendant).

  • It does not. For example, there won’t be a specific breakdown of what the Moon in Sagittarius and the fifth house entails. The primal triad consists of your Sun, Moon, and Ascendant and there are 12 signs and 12 houses. The Ascendant consists of only being in a sign, but the Sun and Moon are each in one sign and one house, which means there can be a total of 300 different combinations of a primal triad. There is not enough time and energy to cover the myriad of possibilities.

  • This course is for you if you’re interested in learning the basics of astrology, where you will be able to interpret any primal triad. Even though there won’t be interpretations of the 300 possible variations of the primal triad, what you will learn is the meaning behind the 3 main symbols in astrology: planets (in this course, it’ll be the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant), signs, and houses. Therefore, after this course, you will be able to interpret what a Sagittarius Moon in the fifth house means.
