A 5-week cohort to unlock your creative expression w/ astrology & gene keys

begins November 14, 2026

You are not drawn to things because you know who you are.

Quite the opposite.

You learn who you are through the things you feel drawn to.

A lot of people are feeling the pressure to figure out how to express themselves.
What to say.
What content to create.
Who their audience is.
It can be very overwhelming to get clarity.
And then you're also facing the inner critic voice.

So instead of creating you end up consuming, scrolling, procrastinating, looking at what everyone is doing, over-think it, etc.

When you deny yourself expression, it creates an imbalance.
The cost of inaction is you lose touch with your inner reality.

I've felt the pressure myself.
That I need to figure out what I am so I can finally commit to something and become known for it.

There's something in you that wants to be expressed.

Creativity is our natural ability as humans to express our rich inner worlds.

do you remember the times when you were little, drawing on the walls in the room?

what changed now?

what stops you from approaching life with the same level of freedom and playfulness?

is there shame?
judgement?

expression

Your creative expression comes from your passions,
the things that call you,
the things that keep you up at night,
the things that get you excited in the morning,
the things you can't stop thinking about.

When you follow that passion it lights up your creativity.

It's the slow, tender practice of paying attention to what calls you every moment of your life.

This becomes the fuel to your creative expression.

Your creative potential is already latent within you, the same way Michelangelo's angel was always present within the block of marble.
The work is chipping away what doesn't belong.

Creation is not just expression, it's self-revelation.

In this 5-week program we go deep into this process of supporting you to unlock your creative expression.

We'll work closely with your Astrology and Gene Keys, as your chart represents a symbolic map of your creative signal, and also what blocks it.

The 3 archetypes we explore:

(01)

Uranus - The Spark

Where you never quite fit, and what wants to break free.

(02)

Chiron - Wound / Medicine

Where it hurts to be seen, and how that pain becomes your material.

This is for you if…

  • You have a creative impulse, whether or not you call yourself creative
  • You struggle with identity confusion, self-doubt, and creative overwhelm
  • You've done inner work and you're ready to turn it into something you make

Where you arrive

Creative work that is uniquely yours

in the medium you choose.

Leo ⟷ Aquarius

There is immense creative potential right now in the sky. A lot of activity on the Leo / Aquarius axis, a dance between the individual creative spark and the larger collective impact.

Find what is uniquely yours, learn to trust it, and bring it into the world.

The cost of inaction.

The ideas stay saved for someday. Another season of consuming other people's work. Another year of knowing exactly why you're stuck, and staying there.

The pressure of what's unexpressed doesn't leave.

We do it in a lovely community, a co-creative journey where we get input from one another and allow our creativity to move through the field.

An act of co-creation.

I want to create the experience live. Create a field and let the field guide us to create the experience in real time, in the space, with the people that are present.

Hey, I'm Andrei

Andrei Topli holding a film camera

I'm a multi-disciplinary artist, astrologer and creative consultant passionate about psychology, cinematography, literature, mysticism, travel, and the deep mysteries of the world.

Earlier in my life I worked in design, film and the fashion photography industry, which gave me a lot of insight and experience in visual storytelling and creative expression.

When I was growing up I was doubting myself a lot and was super shy to be in front of a camera, or speak in public, or in front of the classroom.

Fast forward to today, I make my living by writing, using my voice in sessions and live teaching in group containers.

Using Astrology and Gene Keys I was able to bring awareness to my inner saboteur, especially when it came to comparing myself to others and not trusting my own voice and creative taste.

The first time I hosted an in-person workshop in Bali, 30+ people showed up. A full circle moment for the 7-year-old me who was told his voice was too soft and no one could understand him.

why now?

We're in a phase where creativity is outsourced to AI, and people focus much more on volume instead of quality and the experience itself.
The art of creating is getting lost to the pressure of a fast-moving society and instant gratification.

What I want to bring back is the soul and the quality of creation, to invite people to slow down, connect with themselves and become a channel for what wants to move through them.

Questions

Do I need to know astrology and/or gene keys?

Not at all. Everything will be explained in the live calls. I'll guide you to the parts of your chart we work with each week. All you need is your birth date, time and place.

I don't think of myself as a creative. Is this for me?

If something in you wants to be expressed, yes. At core we are all creatives; the only difference is some of us are conscious of it, some unconscious. You don't need any artistic background or experience. You will get a lot out of this program whether you've never created anything or you create on a daily basis.

Is this for coaches or business owners?

This program is for anyone who wants to shift from consumer to creator, regardless of occupation or medium of creation. It can be social media posts, artwork, newsletters, emails, business offers, etc.

How long will the calls be?

Somewhere between 60–90 minutes, although I have capacity to go longer if the space and the energy require it. I want to build the experience live, so this is just a guideline.

What if I miss the live calls?

All the calls will be posted in the group. Ideally you can make at least a few of them, so you can feel the energy of the group and participate in the co-creation live. Regardless, you will still get a lot of value from the replays and the assignments. I'm also available for Q&A outside the calls.

Do I need to have my chart?

No. You will receive all the information in the program, and I'll send all the resources you need before each call. There's nothing you need to have or prepare before joining.

Do I have to share my work publicly?

No. It will help you a lot to share it within the group and be seen and witnessed for who you are. That alone is very healing.

What if I don't know my birth details?

Send me an email and I can help with that.

Human beings are creative instruments of the cosmos.

The issue is that most people are disconnected from their inner world, their creative voice and their soul's direction.

My mission is to restore that connection.
