Adriana Ayales
Tuesday, November 15, 2022
Explore the deeper story of the correlation between plants and planets, as you learn to see dis-ease and imbalances from an archetypal perspective... and discover how to heal your body, mind and spirit with herbal preparations that you make yourself.
Beginning in the time of Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, medical astrologers classified diseases based on astrological phenomena — using planetary archetypes to determine how to heal various illnesses with herbs that hold the same archetypal energy.
Medical astrology is an ancient science of herbalism used to chart the relationship between herbs, their planetary correspondences…
… and the energies of both that correlate to the various systems of the body.
The big question is: How did these medical astrologers know? How did they figure out that there are herbs governed by the sun that improve cardiovascular function, the immune system, and assist with anxiety, depression, resilience, and adaptability?
Or herbs ruled by the moon that reduce inflammation, enhance intuition, improve digestion, and assist with sleep?
Regardless of the mysterious origins of these powerful discoveries, doctors and medicine people have studied, validated, classified, tested, diagnosed, and effectively healed diseases for centuries based on astrological phenomena — using planetary archetypes…
… and made herbal preparations that harmonize imbalances within the body, mind, and spirit.
Renowned rainforest herbalist and medicine maker Adriana Ayales bridges the principles of these ancient remedies, along with the power of ritual…
… connecting ancestral ways of diagnostics and the spiritual aspects of the natural world with the preparation and usage of herbal remedies.
Deeply inspired by her grandmother as a child, Adriana began studying botanical medicine at a young age — tapping into her own Indigenous roots of Central America.
Adriana founded Anima Mundi, a successful apothecary based in New York, which offers an extensive array of therapeutic remedies from the rainforest and around the world.
She’s an expert in techniques for healing both acute and chronic issues with specific ancient plant medicine practices, recipes, rituals, and ceremonies.
Join Adriana on a practical and profoundly spiritual 7-week journey, in which you’ll come to truly understand the cosmic influences of a wide variety of herbs and their healing associations…
… and learn how to plant, harvest, and work with herbs based on their astrological correspondences, formulating your own powerful herbal preparations to heal your body, nourish your emotions, and evolve your soul.
During this information-packed 7-week course, you’ll discover:
- How to formulate highly effective herbal remedies that heal the emotional and physical bodies and evolve the soul
- The power of archetypes and ceremony in making potent plant remedies to access the intelligence of nature
- Which herbs are ruled by each planet and their associated zodiac signs
- Rituals combined with herbal remedies that help you move from an I Am frame of reference to the We All consciousness
- The deeply symbolic world of astrology, and how it translates to healing actions and key characteristics in a variety of plant remedies
- How to assess dis-ease from an elemental and astrological perspective
- Ways physical, energetic, spiritual, and emotional imbalances can be understood and healed based on their archetypal qualities
- How to classify herbs based on their energetic signature and healing actions
- Why astrology can support your practice in discovering the root cause of energetic imbalances — a more whole-being approach to addressing issues or the mind, body, and spirit
- Key elements from biodynamics, and how that translates to the world of astro-herbalism
- And much more…
You’ll explore how working with plants at this expanded level of understanding can not only greatly assist you in mind-body-soul healing…
… it can ground you into your place in the cyclical power of nature and the divine matrix in which we all reside.
Adriana will walk you through which biological systems are ruled by each planet, and their associated zodiac signs. She’ll reveal the different energies each planetary configuration carries, and the associated herbs that fall predominantly under each.
Each of the seven sessions in this program will cover one (or more) of the astrological bodies, their herbal counterparts, and what aspects of your body-mind-spirit health they address:
- Sun — Vitality, sovereignty, rejuvenation, and immunity
- Moon — Pineal and pituitary glands, emotions, digestive system, intuition, and dreams
- Mercury — Mental clarity, communication, and nervous system function
- Venus — Kidneys, lymphatic and reproductive systems, harmony, and love
- Mars — Muscular system, motor nerves, adrenaline, ego, independence, energy, and strength
- Jupiter — Joy, longevity, immunity, liver function, higher wisdom, and vitality
- Saturn and the trans-saturnian planets, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto — Bones, skin, gallbladder, endurance, and discipline
Adriana will also guide you through Indigenous meditations and rituals with herbs governed by the sun, moon, and each of the planets — to connect with their archetypal energies for protection, immunity, purification, and energetic cleansing.
As she’ll share, when you ritualize your life with these ancient practices, you’ll move into a state of greater health and wellbeing, so you can live a more energetically grounded life, with the power to heal yourself with your own home pharmacy.

Course Sessions Tuesdays at 9:00am Pacific
This course will feature LIVE teachings, interactive training sessions, experiential practices, and Q&A with Adriana. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to heal your body, mind, and spirit, with herbal remedies you prepare from what's growing in your own garden (or what’s readily available from local apothecaries or online sources).
Module 1: Herbs of the Sun — Solar Plants to Enhance Vitality, Sovereignty, Rejuvenation & Immunity (November 15)
The sun rules the manifestation of the ego — the base persona through which we perceive the world.
The sun corresponds anatomically to the heart and general cardiovascular system, as well as our general state of health and immunity.
In this opening session, you’ll learn about herbs ruled by the sun — hot and dry herbs, many of which are stimulating tonics, cardio-tonics and adaptogens.
You’ll learn about solar remedies, such as turmeric, St. John’s Wort, rosemary, rue, and more.
These herbal allies can greatly assist you in dispelling cold and damp internal environments. Solar herbs can also be vitality tonics, to help you recuperate your vital essence.
They also improve our resilience and adaptability and hold powerful nutritional value.
In this first module, you’ll discover:
- Herbs ruled by the sun, and their corresponding healing properties
- Meditations and rituals with solar herbs to connect and heal your inner sun
- The sun’s zodiacal expression — Leo — which rules your ability to assert your direct “I am” consciousness
- Solar tonics that assist with sovereignty, energy, vitality, recuperation, and strength
- Emotional and spiritual imbalances often associated with solar excess or deficiency — inflammation, excess heat, irritation, anger, and burnout
- When your solar energy is in balance, you’ll experience enhanced health, balance, radiance, fundamental happiness, and rejuvenation
Module 2: Herbs of the Moon — Lunar Plants to Activate the Pineal Gland, Regulate Emotions & Enhance Your Intuition & Dreams (November 29)
The moon houses our intuition and emotions. Astrologers look at the moon’s position in natal charts to understand which part of one’s being is most vulnerable, including the emotions we nurture and protect.
It encompasses the inner sanctum of our emotional body, where we refine our psychic pathways and our dreams, and perceive through extrasensory perception.
You’ll learn about lunar herbs, such as blue lotus, mugwort, chamomile, sage, and more.
The moon corresponds anatomically to the limbic brain, the pituitary and pineal glands, and the general digestive system — stomach, esophagus, and hormones associated with the alimentary system.
In this session, Adriana will share:
- Herbs and energetics ruled by the moon, and their corresponding healing qualities
- Meditations and lunar potions to connect and heal your inner moon
- The moon’s zodiacal expression — Cancer — to better understand its day-to-day expression

- Imbalances of the body and spirit often associated with the moon, such as deficiencies related to cold and damp, anxiety, over-sensitivity, and vulnerability
- How lunar powers work with the body and spirit — nurturing empathy, psychic energy, and activating the dreamscape
- Lunar tonics that assist your digestion, limbic system, and emotional body
Module 3: Herbs of Mercury for Mental Clarity, Better Communication & an Optimal Nervous System (December 6)
According to astrologers, the energy of natal Mercury governs how we use our mind.
More specifically, mercurial energy impacts the ways we apply our five physical senses to obtain information from the world around us. We interpret that information based upon the data that’s collected and stored in the brain.
Just as Mercury, the deity, carries messages from our shadow selves (our “undiscovered” selves) to the outer world (our “manifested” selves), so do our thoughts carry information from the inner to the outer worlds.
Mercurial herbs directly target our brain, and the entire operational center that contributes to mental processes, as well as the nervous system and sensory nerves.
It activates the power of ether in the body, improving mental alertness, cognition, memory, sight, and clarity. Spiritually, herbs of Mercury assist us with focused attention, enhance mental processes, and sharpened senses.
You’ll learn about “brain herbs,” such as brahmi, lavender, lion’s mane, ginkgo, and more.
In this session, you’ll explore:
- Herbs and energetics that fall under Mercury’s rulership, and their corresponding healing qualities
- How mercurial powers work with the body and spirit, and potions that assist the highest expression of this archetype
- Meditations and mercurial potions to connect and heal your inner mercury
- Mercury’s zodiacal expression — Gemini and Virgo
- Mercurial tonics that assist with the mind, clarity, mental processes, cognitive function, and mental resilience
- Imbalances in the mind and spirit that are often associated with Mercury and may leave you feeling ungrounded, restless, chaotic, and flakey
- Mercurial tonics that improve your mental health and enhance your experience of consciousness, higher consciousness, and the psyche
Module 4: Herbs of Venus to Heal the Kidneys & Lymphatic System & Increase Harmony & Love (December 13)
Venus embodies the principle of harmony, and the powers bestowed by balance, union, and love. It’s the archetypal manifestation of beauty and aesthetics. Within the astrological chart, Venus reveals how a person derives (and provides) love, pleasure, and fulfillment.
Venusian herbs can be a great help in tackling our aesthetic pursuits, and also encompasses spirit herbs that provide us with happiness, euphoria, and bliss.
Venus is said to rule the metamorphosis of the cells, the reproductive system, and the preservation of the body and complexion.
Venusian herbs encompass plants that rejuvenate us, uplift our mood, and beautify our body inside and out — such as rose, damiana, schisandra, balm of Gilead, and more.
Venus is responsible for the harmony between all the systems of the body, and as the main ruler of Taurus, rules the throat and kidneys.
In this module, you’ll discover:
- Herbs and energetics that fall under Venus’ rulership, and their corresponding healing qualities
- Meditations and venusian potions to awaken and free your inner Venus

- Venusian tonics that assist in manifesting what you love, and ways to open your heart and express your love for life
Module 5: Herbs of Mars to Regulate the Ego & Cultivate Independence, Energy, Strength & Your Inner Warrior (January 3)
Mars represents primal energy — the fuel with which we bring ideas, dreams, and desires into manifestation. Mars imbues us with power, strength, courage, and physical activity. Within astrological charts, Mars is a key element of our drive, desire, agility, and the nature of our physical energy.
Anatomically, Mars rules the muscular system, motor nerves, and the production of adrenaline. It influences how we catalyze, pursue desire, take action, and source energy.
Mars also deeply correlates to sexual fulfillment — from how we pursue intimacy, to how we manage our sexual energy.
The herbs governed by Mars tend to be hot, yang, and stimulating. They frequently ignite energy or heat to catalyze important biological actions, such as sweating, cardiovascular activation, elimination, and more.
A deficiency of Mars energy, on the other hand, can lead to a lack of libdio, general desire, motivation, or even enough energy to act on something we love.
Many of the herbs that fall under Mars’ umbrella are often protective, strengthening, warming, and energizing.
You’ll learn about nettle, rue, maca, blessed thistle, and more.
In this session, Adriana will share:
- Herbs and energetics under Mars’ rulership, and their corresponding healing properties
- Meditations and rituals to connect and heal with herbs governed by Mars
- The archetype of Mars and the constellations it rules — Aries and Scorpio — and how they differ
- Key martian tonics that assist with energy, strength, endurance, and stimulation
- How martian imbalances manifest egoism, inflammation, anger, competition, and irritability
- That, when your martian energy is in balance, you’ll experience energy, empowerment, leadership qualities, adaptability, and resilience
Module 6: Herbs of Jupiter & Rituals for Vitality, Joy, Longevity & Better Liver Function (January 10)
Jupiter is often thought of as the planet of abundance, higher wisdom, success, and expansive energy… holding an energy that grants us an expansive outlook on life.
Many people consider Jupiter the master teacher, or guru, among the planetary bodies, because it embodies higher consciousness, wisdom, esoteric energy, and great understanding of the mysteries of life.
Jupiter’s herbs are warm, moist, and generally stimulating. Many of the rejuvenative tonic herbs, such as adaptogens and others, fall under Jupiter’s rule because of their positive effect on many systems in the body. They’re expansive in nature, enabling us to feel uplifted and jovial.
These mood-enhancing and spirited herbs contain spiritual qualities that can assist you in meditation.
Anatomically, Jupiter corresponds with the liver, pancreas, adrenal glands, and spleen — improving our body’s ability to resist dis-ease. It’s responsible for oxygenating our blood, increasing energy levels, and healing aspects of the digestive organs — particularly the liver-gallbladder axis.
You’ll learn about “liver herbs,” such as dandelion and Oregon grape root, and wise, revered trees, like frankincense, myrrh, cedar, and juniper.
Jupiter rules Sagittarius, and relates to the thighs, buttocks, and the base of the spine, including the sacrum and hips.
In this session, you’ll explore:
- Herbs and healing properties that correspond with Jupiter
- Meditations and rituals with herbs governed by Jupiter, to connect and heal
- The archetype of Jupiter and its zodiacal correspondence, Sagittarius
- Key Jupiter tonics that assist with vitality, mood enhancement, longevity, immunity, and liver function
- How emotional and spiritual imbalances associated with Jupiter manifest as depression, lack of direction, lack of purpose, financial anxiety, and unworthiness.
- How your Jupiter energy being in balance enhances your leadership capacity, wisdom, adaptability, fundamental happiness, and spiritual fulfillment
Module 7: Herbs of Saturn for Stronger Bones, Improved Skin & Greater Endurance & Discipline (January 17)
Saturn, also known as Cronus — the lord of time — represents the divine matrix that we call life.
The energy of Saturn rules the cycles of karma, archetypally embodying both the hardship and wisdom earned when we navigate the labyrinths of life’s mystery.
Saturn represents stealth, endurance, self-control, discipline, and challenge. In medical astrology, Saturn is associated with the hard structures that hold our body, such as the skeletal system, knees, joints, teeth, nails, and skin. It also corresponds with the gallbladder and the processing of minerals within the body, gallbladder, and skin.
You’ll learn about the revered collagen-protecting plants, such as horsetail, comfrey, hemp, arnica, and more.
Finally, Adriana will share about the trans-Saturnian planets — Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto — and their herbal correspondences, and how Saturn is the sacred gateway to the collective mind.
In this closing module, you’ll discover:
- Herbs of Saturn, its zodiacal correspondence — Capricorn — and their healing properties
- How Saturn is an energetic gateway to the outer planets
- That the archetype of Neptune represents the collective dream, and how its corresponding herbs relate to the moon
- How Uranus represents the collective mind and collective program, and how its corresponding herbs relate to Mercury
