Astrology and Education

The study of astrology in our modern society is varied and diverse and we do not provide an exhaustive list of schools for all methods. If your goal is to become a professional astrologer, you will need to learn the methods and techniques of the kind of astrology you want to practice. You will also need to stay current on state and local laws that govern the practice of astrology where you live and work.

The Qualifying Horary Practitioner Course, Barbara Dunn

A Memorial to Olivia Barclay

Olivia Barclay was one of the ones (along with Robert Zoller) who started the entire movement of revived interest in traditional astrology. The study of horary astrology in particular would not be what it is today were it not for the QHP course. Olivia Barclay bequeathed her work to Barbara Dunn in 2001. We recommend the course and Barbara's new book, Horary Astrology Re-examined for serious students of horary astrology.

 
 

Robert Zoller's Medieval Study Course

Robert Zoller was one of the first to begin seriously investigating Medieval techniques and their application to modern astrological usage starting back in the 1970's. As a result Zoller has learned more about the actual application of these techniques than just about anyone else. His course contains the fruits of his knowledge made accessible to anyone willing to make the effort. He also has many interesting and worthwhile books to buy.
