Intro to Astrology Week 1: The Elements and Modalities
Saturday June 21 5pm-6:30pm
In the first session we will take a look at the 12 western zodiac signs through the lenses of the elements (fire, earth, air, and water) and the modalities (cardinal, fixed, mutable) and how these energies help to influence each individual sign.
Intro to Astrology Week 2: The Celestial Bodies
Saturday June 28 2pm-3:30pm
In this session we will look at the celestial bodies (planets) that fill our birth charts. We will spend time discussing the 5 personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, & Mars), the 2 social planets (Saturn & Jupiter), the 3 outer planets (Uranus, Neptune, & Pluto), as well as the comet Chiron. We will investigate the legends and myths behind the planets, and how that can manifest within a birth chart.
Intro to Astrology Week 3: The Planetary Aspects
Saturday July 5 2pm-3:30pm
In our 3rd we will explore one of the more complicated parts of reading a birth chart: the aspects. We will cover the major aspects (Conjunctions, Sextiles, Trines, Oppositions, and Squares) and what they mean. The aspects represent the ways in which the planets in the chart communicate and relate to each other, and are highly specific to each chart.
Intro to Astrology Week 4: The 12 Houses
Saturday July 12 2pm-3:30pm
Our second to last session will look into the 12 houses of the chart, their rulers, and the meanings behind a planet’s exaltation, detriment, and fall. From how they create money and their personal habits to the long-term relationships they will find themselves drawn to, the houses create the frameworks for an individual’s life story and set out a guide for their personal nature.
Intro to Astrology Week 5: Putting It All Together - Reading A Chart
Saturday July 19 2pm-3:30pm
Finally, we will put it all together in our last class - reading a birth chart. What is a stellium? What chart shapes exist, and how can we read them? What does it mean for YOUR chart?
This is the class where we will spend most of our time looking at our different charts and what interpretations we can make from them.
