Distance Learning

Temporary stop for new student until July 2010

• Purpose

      The purpose of the courses offered is not only to introduce the student to the basics of astrology, but to help the student develop the insight and logic needed to interpret a chart. Through continuing studies, the student goes through a process of in-depth understanding of esoteric astrology, and critical and creative thinking.

• Course Descriptions

   Level 1     Fundamentals In Astrology

   This is an introduction to classical astrology. Throughout the courses, we work on natal charts to learn the language of astrology, the energy it represents, and the rules of interpretation.

   Level  2     Advanced Astrology

   This is a continuation of fundamental astrology encompassing the study of our evolution, outer development, and the personality.  Here, we begin a deeper analysis of the chart as we cover the study of the outer planets and their effects on us. The process of personal development is studied using transits and progressives.

   Level  3     Esoteric Astrology

  This is the study of inner development and the Soul. We will work on chart adjustment and the seven rays, as well as mundane and initiation astrology.

• Course Objective

• Develop the necessary skills to analyze the complexity of a horoscope and  understand astrology both exoterically and esoterically. Develop an overall understanding of the meaning and purpose of life.

• The process gives a clearer understanding of one's role in the world as a whole, and how challenges can be transformed into opportunities.

• Take increasing responsibility for oneself and others.

• Course Requirements

    All students are required to start at level 1 and advance to the two other levels. Later in 2010/2011, it will be possible for advanced students to directly begin on level two.

    A questionnaire is required and will only be a parameter for assisting the student.

     Access to a computer with internet access.

• Method of Study

     The virtual classroom has become significant as a tool for today's education. It provides ample time to reflect on the information before responding. Freedom of self-expression is greater than in a tradition classroom. The student-teacher relationship forms the basis for all educational processes, therefore each individual student is highlighted.

Each level is taught in a virtual classroom in English, and completed by independent and distance learning. Students progress at their own pace, completing reading assignments, writing papers, and research. The courses have a variety of different study materials/objectives such as text pages, multimedia with audio, visually animated slide shows, and tutorials. Reading assignments are available in PDFs. The quizzes and exams are to be taken online in the virtual classroom. Interaction with the instructor will be via a secure internet site, located in the virtual classroom.

web conferencing/webinar such as lectures will be through 

Assignments and other information for each course are posted online. Term papers are required for each course covering the selected area of study.

You can sign up for a course either by email or by phone. You will then be asked to fill out a questionnaire, enabling me to help you. After that you will receive a password so that you can log in to the virtual classroom and start your course. When you are logged in as a student, all the information  you need to get started in your course is posted there.

• What kind of learner are you?

   People learn differently and therefore you should find out what kind of learner you are.

1. An auditory learner learns by listening. If you are such a learner, it is important for you to ask questions and discuss the assignments. If you study alone, you can still improve your learning by reading out loud and getting in touch with the instructor.

2. A visual learner learns by reading. If you are such a learner, a quiet place for studying is essential for focusing and concentrating on the study materials.

3. A kinesthetic learner learns by doing. If you are such a learner, you must find a creative way for studying, for example, highlighting the text, taking notes and so on.

• Learning Style:          

       High quality learning can take place without going to a traditional classroom. Distance learning requires strength and self-motivation to get the work done, but this is solved through your interest in the work. Be able to communicate through writing. Critical thinking is a part of the learning process, so think ideas through before responding to subjects.

• Duration of Study:

         Each level has a time frame of 12 months, but can be completed in less time.

• Quizzes and Final Exams:  

       Short quizzes are assigned and the score is retrievable immediately with feedback in order to help strengthen weak areas. The quiz scores do NOT count toward test results and are only used to help students prepare for the final exams. Students may take each quiz as many times as needed until they are confident that they have learned the material. A particularly flexible feature of the courses is that students can study and take the quizzes at their own pace.

• Course Results: 

   Results are based on a written understanding and interpretation of horoscopes. A final exam is taken at the end of each level.

      All three levels make up an in-depth study of astrology. The teaching is concentrated and intuitive as we advance. The focus is intensified by the effort you put into learning the material.

A diploma will be issued for successful completion in each level.

• Important!

       In order for me to suggest the level of astrology you would benefit from upon entrance to this online school, you are asked to fill out a questionnaire as an entrance paper.

Exoteric Astrology

  Exoteric astrology is also called classical astrology.  It is the astrology that corresponds to the physical world.  This type of astrology gives us a picture of a person’s background, life circumstances and conditions, available resources, and the way in which these resources can be utilized on the physical plane.

Esoteric Astrology

  This form of astrology asks the question, “What is the purpose of life?”  It is this branch of astrology that is based on a person’s inner spiritual development - an understanding of oneself in relation to one's inner and outer worlds.  This kind of astrology can therefore either give us a picture of where a person is to be found in his or her spiritual development, or what area of concentration is needed in order to improve and increase the individual's understanding.  Our inner development runs parallel to our physical development.  As we reap our experiences, our mind and consciousness expand.   This expansion enables us to focus on our life.  Through focusing, we find the right path. We are here on earth to develop a sensitive consciousness  - more specifically, a consciousness into which the experience of feeling is integrated.  When that form of consciousness has reached a certain stage in our development, it will be possible to register what really occurs in life, using that sensitive consciousness or mind.  Through this faculty, we will be able to find the truth in all things again.
