ASTROLOGY CLASSES - On Sunday Afternoons

Astrology classes are held on Sunday afternoons from 2 PM to 5 PM in San Francisco, CA in the Dolores Park area. Each class costs $70.

BEGINNER CLASSES
These two classes or equivalent are the pre-requisite for Advanced Topics

CLASS ONE - The Ephemeris.  Know what's happening in the heavens!
Class date TBA in spring 2009.
How to read an astrological calendar called the ephemeris: learn the ten planets, the twelve astrology signs, the planets as they progress through the signs, and how to read a complete astrological ephemeris. I recommend the We'Moon 2009 astrological calendar or Jim Maynard's Celestial Influences 2009 calendar. If you do not have a 2009 ephemeris, I have Celestial Influences 2009 available to purchase in class for $10.

CLASS TWO -  Aspects.  Read your own chart! Then read charts for others!
Class date TBA in spring 2009.
How to interpret astrological aspects to read your birth chart: what are trines, squares, sextiles, and other aspects; the twelve-house system; and how to interpret specific planets in houses. I'll have your birth chart prepared for the class. Class text is Alan Oken's Complete Astrology. Very inexpensive used copies are available on amazon.com.

ADVANCED TOPICS
Prerequisite is the two beginners classes or equivalent

TRANSITS - The timing of your life!
Class date TBA.
Predict to the exact day when and what will occur. Astrological transits were cast for kings, queens, pharaohs, and popes, and now you can learn how to do it. I'll have your six-month transit chart prepared for the class. Class text is Planets in Transit by Robert Hand.

PROGRESSED LUNAR PHASES - Mother Moon from womb to tomb!

Understand the subtle dynamics of your emotional evolution through lunar transits. I will prepare your progressed lunar chart and have handout materials for the class. No text is required, but supplemental reading is The Lunation Cycle by Dane Rudhyar and Finding Our Way Through The Dark by Demetra George. 

ASTRO-CARTOGRAPHY - Your places of good fortune!
Class date to TBA.
Where you have good fortune - and places to avoid. Every inch of planet earth is mapped out according to the specifics of your birth chart. Ideal for travel or relocating. You will need to bring to class the Astro-Cartography Kit (which contains the Astro-Cartography map and booklet) from Astro Numeric Services in Ashland, Oregon. Call them at 541.488.1347 to place your order. There is a $5 shipping fee. But if you order your Astro-Cartography Kit from their web site www.astronumerics.com they will waive the $5 shipping fee. So the cost is $20 if ordered on line or $25 if ordered by phone.

TAOIST ASTROLOGY - Classical Chinese astrology brought to life!
Class date TBA.
Learn the twelve earthly branches of the twelve Chinese animals; the five Taoist elements of fire, earth, metal, water, and wood; and how to do prognostic astrological readings in the Chinese method. I'll have your complete Taoist Four Pillars chart prepared for the class. Class text is my book Taoist Astrology which I'll have available to purchase in class for $15.

TAROT AND ASTROLOGY - If you know astrology, you can easily read tarot cards!
Class date TBA.
Understand how the four elements of astrology are the exact same elements as the four suits of the tarot; the planets and signs of the major arcana cards; and the Crowley Thoth tarot deck minor arcana attributes of planet and sign. I'll have copies of the deluxe large Thoth tarot deck available for purchase in the class for $20. The text for this class is my book Introduction to Tarot which costs $18.
