Q. HOW WAS ASTROLO-CHI® CREATED? Astrolo-Chi® was developed in 1999/2000 by Daniel Lally and Jeff Baugher. Follow this link for more information.
Q. HOW DO I USE ASTROLO-CHI®? First,
learn the Astrolo-Chi® movement for your sun (birth) sign, and practice it
regularly. Second, when the movement for your sun sign feels comfortable and familiar, start cross-training
it with its opposite, i.e. Aries/Libra, Taurus/Scorpio, Gemini/Sagittarius, Cancer/Capricorn, Leo/Aquarius and
Virgo/Pisces. Third, regularly do all 6 pairs of movements and notice which movements feel familiar/unfamiliar,
and practice the pairs regularly until both sides feel more balanced and even-keeled. AM and PM workouts on our video can help you to familiarize yourself with all these forms. Fourth, begin to use the movements to anchor your awareness
of the new and full moons with the videos on our home page. And finally, in the hands of a skilled astrologer, Astrolo-Chi® can help
you to embody and develop a deeper awareness of astrological transits, aspects and progressions.
Q. DOES ASTROLO-CHI® HAVE BENEFITS SIMILAR TO TAI CHI AND CHI GONG? Yes. The movements are slow and fluid, unifying breath, mindfulness and movement. The main difference
is that the movements have no martial arts applications, and are not based on natural imagery per se, but are based
on the 12 signs of the western Zodiac. Each sign "rules" or embodies certain body parts more than others, and the
movements reflect the spirit or essential meaning of each sign. As a form of chi gong, with Astrolo-Chi®you
can think about the body parts associated with each sign as you do the movement, and chi will move
into and empower those areas. Or you can do the movements in mindfulness or reflecting about your astrology, and notice what
comes to mind. In any case, the movements are slow, fluid, relaxed and powerful, and not to mention fun and easy to learn.
