Details

The course is aimed at beginners who have an interest or curiosity about the amazing Art of Astrology, and wish to take that interest deeper and alchemise it into knowledge. It will cover the basic skills needed to accurately read and understand the Astrological Birth Chart with some depth, and will help students to gain a more profound knowledge of themselves and others in relation to the heavens, leading them to a deeper place of understanding about Life Cycles.

Astrology is a lifelong journey, and with this course, students will be able to open up to a wonderful world that keeps giving in its abundance of knowledge to be learnt. Hence, the course is not for those who wish to practice professionally (i.e. as a career), but rather as a springboard to take the course further into a vocational field should they wish to do so. Further guidance will be given to those students.

Students are asked to bring a notebook, colour pens, and a tablet or notebook if possible.
