A year-long study exploring two mesmerizing symbol systems – Western Zodiac astrology and Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM)’s holomap
Taught by Carol Ferris
Meeting once a month beginning February 6th, we’ll study the relationship between the starry sky and earthly nature: how signs & rhythms reveal themselves, what nature is showing us, and how these patterns inform both personal health, and the health of the collective. You will be introduced to CCM’s holomap, created by Dr. Heiner Fruehauf.
The course is guided by Carol Ferris, a renowned astrologer whose decades of work weave together multiple symbolic systems. We are so blessed to work with Carol in offering our community this learning opportunity!
This will be a small, attentive circle of just 30 participants, so Carol can work with each person’s individual horoscope. Spaces are filling quickly.

A Systematic Journey into the Alchemical Depths of Chinese Medicine
Presented by Heiner Fruehauf, PhD
with Bob Quinn, DAOM and Michael Berletich, DAOM
The unique science of acupuncture and moxibustion has always comprised the heart of Chinese medicine. In his attempt to conceive a more comprehensive and less protocol-driven model of acupuncture education, Heiner Fruehauf spent the last 25 years decoding the cosmological, cultural, and clinical layers contained in the traditional names of the acupuncture points.
This project eventually became his life’s work, motivated by a desire to overcome the rote memorization convention of most acupuncture programs and inspired by the following statement by Sun Simiao: “The quality of an acupuncture point is metaphorically embedded in its name—this principle can be applied to all of the point names and the functions they represent.”
*This is now an on-demand course. We’ve partnered with Net of Knowledge as a learning management platform.
A Master Class With Heiner Fruehauf
EARN CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS
Classical Strategies for Effective Herbal Formulation is a 14-month live program that began in March 2023. The on-demand recorded version of each series is now being released with the option to earn 2.5 CEU/PDA credits for each individual class (5 to 7.5 credits per series).
Each series is self-contained and designed to be taken on its own, or you can take them sequentially. You can take the individual classes — but we recommend the full series for each formula family.
In these webinars, Heiner introduces the use of Chinese herbs and synthesizes the essence of his 30 years of academic and clinical insights into the science of classical Chinese herbal formulation. Each series is focused on a formula family and designed to further the lifelong learner’s journey as they deepen their mastery of Chinese herbal prescribing based on classical principles.
