I ask for the blessings of Solar Lord’s energy to weave its gift of intention and fuel the resources that feed the hunger of our souls for learning.
And, I ask the blessing of being able to serve our community in sharing the gift of knowledge and in so doing set the fires ablaze in all seekers on a path of joy and enchantment.
It’s Written in the Stars: An Introduction to Astrology
A 9-Wk Live Session Course of Study
The study of Astrology has been a topic of interest and mystery from Ancient times. The relationship between the stars and planets at one’s time of birth and the impact of those celestial bodies on the course of a lifetime has been debated and disputed, but the scientific facts based on astronomy and its findings have uncannily been in support of many of the theory surrounding astrology.
This 9-wk series will provide the core concepts, definitions and basic understanding of an astrological (or natal) chart. You will use your individual natal chart as starting point of analysis and reference.

• An Overview of Astrology as Science and Mystery
