Registration is now open for Introduction to Astrology, a six-week course for beginning and intermediate students. 

Register by June 15th to reserve your place. Scroll down for the registration form.  

Astrology is a language of connection. For thousands of years, it’s been used to study our relationship to the larger cycles of our world, and for over a hundred years to study our own psyches.

This course will cover the basics of Western astrology, grounded in an understanding of the ecological cycles that shaped this system. We will focus on the meanings of the signs, planets, and houses, and progress to how they interact together, using your own birth chart to guide you in an experiential understanding of these abstractions. What does it mean to have a fifth house Sun, or Venus in Taurus? How does it feel to have Saturn square your Moon? How do you put all these elements together to build an accurate psychological portrait?

By the end of this interactive course, students will have the essential tools to begin reading and interpreting birth charts. No prior experience with astrology is required, but students will get the most from this class if they know their birth date/time/place and have some time for study outside of class.

• Each class lasts 90 minutes and will be held in Durham (location TBD). If you are interested in distance learning, please get in touch.
