What if the brilliance of a beloved author could be seen written not only on the page but in the stars?

Join astrologer and teacher April McCoy of Cosmic Connections for a fascinating evening exploring the birth chart of one of literature’s most enduring voices, Jane Austen.

In this interactive workshop, we’ll examine how astrology can illuminate an author’s creative voice, storytelling style, and cultural impact. Through the lens of Jane Austen’s birth chart, we’ll explore how planetary placements can influence themes of romance, social commentary, wit, and the timeless dynamics of relationships that made works like Pride and Prejudice unforgettable.

Whether you are an avid reader, a fan of classic literature, or simply curious about astrology, this evening will offer a unique perspective on the intersection of creativity, personality, and destiny.

During this two-hour experience, we will explore:

The key elements of Jane Austen’s birth chart

Why certain authors—and their stories—become timeless

No prior knowledge of astrology is required. This class is designed to be engaging, accessible, and thought-provoking for beginners and enthusiasts alike.
