An Introduction to Astrology

This livestream introductory astrology course teaches you the essentials of birth chart interpretation.

Our horoscope is a 'photograph' of the moment of our birth, a representation of the planets as seen from earth at a given time and place. Astrology gives us the tools to be able to gain helpful meaning from this 'photograph'. It is a symbolic and mythical language that enables us to understand ourselves and make meaning of our place in the world.

Over this eight-week online astrology course, Jackie will guide you through the fundamental building blocks of astrology, including interpreting your own and others' birth charts.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• Understand how to locate the rising sign and build a birth chart
• Identify the 10 main planets and their symbols, function and meaning
• Identify and decipher the symbols and meanings of the 12 signs of the zodiac
• Describe the modes and elements of each sign
• Describe and discuss the meaning of the 4 quadrants and 12 houses that make up the birth chart
• Understand the basic aspect structures in a birth chart:
  • Conjunctions, Sextiles and Squares
  • Trines, Oppositions and Quincunxes

We will not be recording these classes. One of the unique aspects of the College's online courses is that they are highly interactive. Participants are encouraged to discuss and share with the tutor and the group. These sharings can be very personal, and some may not feel comfortable with them being recorded. If you need to miss any sessions, your tutor will be happy to offer a brief outline of the material covered.
