Fiona Marques introduces a new group called Redemption Arc Detectives to her patrons on Patreon patreon.com/fionamarques, aimed at individuals struggling with complex astrological placements like Lajjitaadi Avashtas or difficult conjunctions in their birth charts. The group investigates these placements, seeks remedies, and shares experiences for mutual learning and support. The group emphasizes respectful communication. Fiona draws inspiration from the Hero's Journey and explores the concept of redemption arcs in astrology. The initiative supports individuals in transforming their perceived difficult placements into opportunities for growth. To join, visit patreon.com/fionamarques
