For students of astrology & trainee astrologers

I really enjoyed attending Chirone’s astrology classes. She made them such fun. I found Chirone to be a very enthusiastic and motivated teacher who has the ability to simplify the sometimes complex concepts of astrology so that everyone in the class is easily able to understand them – Glenda

All my courses, workshops and personal consultations are now run online.

Astrology courses and workshops are offered on a regular basis as live online interactive events.  If you’re unable to attend regular live classes, online self-paced courses and private tuition options are available.  Workshops are recorded and the recording is available afterwards to everyone who has registered.

If you’re interested in any of my courses, or you’d like to be on the mailing list to receive information about any upcoming courses or workshops, please contact me.   

Sign up for my monthly Astrology newsletter on the left-hand side of this page, and you’ll receive my newsletter including up-to-date information on my upcoming Astrology courses and workshops.

 

NOTE:   If you decide to study Astrology, you will start on a lifelong journey of self-exploration and self-discovery.  If you have already started on this inner work journey, Astrology will take you much, much deeper.  Astrology is a unique tool for gaining insight into yourself (and of course others) and is ultimately a way of bringing greater awareness into our lives.  It can also be a lot of fun!  If this appeals to you, I hope to see you at my courses or workshops.

 

Astrology Study Programme 2024

 

Astrology courses are available at all levels ranging from Beginner to Advanced.   Advanced classes are held as LIVE interactive classes online.  Foundation & Intermediate courses are available as online self-paced courses.   Private tuition options are available to everyone at all levels, so even if you’re studying online self-paced, there’s always the option of having an additional private tutorial.  For those looking to become professionally qualified astrologers, preparation classes for the FAA exams  and professional mentoring are also available

There are 4 modules in the Foundation course, 4 modules in the Intermediate course, and 8 modules in the Advanced course, taking you ultimately to professional practitioner level, although of course not everyone who studies with me intends to become a professional astrologer!  Most of my students are learning for pleasure, and to learn more about themselves & their loved ones, and usually find that Foundation & Intermediate courses are sufficient for that purpose..  To see details of each of these levels, click on the links below.

 

Additionally, Astrology workshops on specialist topics are held regularly, usually at weekends although sometimes on weekdays, again for details click on the links below.

 

Initially, I approached Chirone for some tutorial assistance for the course I was studying with the Faculty of Astrological Studies in London, as she is a holder of that institution’s prestigious Diploma. Her extensive astrological knowledge and experience combined with great perceptive insight helped me to quickly overcome the mental block that I was experiencing. Chirone is a truly gifted astrologer, an inspiring teacher and healer whom I have no hesitation in recommending – Nita

Intermediate Astrology

The Intermediate Astrology course focuses on the predictive techniques of Transits (Intermediate 1), and Secondary Progressions (Intermediate 2).  It assumes you can already interpret a birth chart and are now ready to go on to the next level!   For this reason, you do need to have completed a Foundation course (either with me or elsewhere) and have a good grasp of natal chart interpretation to be able to join the Intermediate programme.

 

Intermediate 1:  Transits – the Time of Your Life!

The first module in the Intermediate course, ‘Transits – the Time of Your Life!’  explores how the planets influence us throughout our lives, including times of crisis and transition.  Understand why the “Mid-Life Crisis” is so challenging, how we can pinpoint the exact timing of each of its phases with Astrology, and how to navigate these challenging times more consciously.

This module is suitable for those who already completed a Foundation course and have a good understanding of Natal Chart Interpretation.

This module is available online.

Module fee includes comprehensive Intermediate 1 notes and charts

 

Intermediate 2:  Progressions – the Unfolding of a Life

The second module in the Intermediate course, ‘Progressions – the Unfolding of a Life’ explores how Astrology can track the unfolding of a life through the predictive technique of secondary progressions.  Progressions are one of the most useful techniques in the predictive astrologer’s repertoire, and are a unique timing device.  Topics explored include:  the progressed Sun, the progressed Moon through the signs and houses, the progressed Lunar Return, the progressed Lunation Cycle, and progressed retrogrades.

This module is suitable for those who already have a good understanding of Natal Chart Interpretation (Foundation course) and Transits (Intermediate level 1).

This module is available online.

Module fee includes comprehensive Intermediate 2 notes and charts 

 

Intermediate 3:  Dynamic Integration

progressions and transits into a dynamic chart interpretation.  Further topics suited to this level of chart interpretation are included, such as transits of Chiron and of the Moon’s Nodes, Weaving the Tapestry of the Chart and Unaspected Planets – see the registration link below for more details of topics covered in this module.

The Dynamic Integration module is suitable for those who have a good working knowledge of Transits (Intermediate level 1) and Progressions (Intermediate level 2).

This module is available online.

Module fee includes comprehensive Intermediate 3 notes and charts

 

Intermediate 4:  The Astrology of Relationships

The most popular Astrology module I run (!!!), this is the fourth and last module 
in the Intermediate course.  ‘The Astrology of Relationships’ explores the fascinating and complex subject of relationships and how Astrology can throw light on so many different aspects of a relationship.

Topics covered include: relationship indicators in the birth chart, synastry and composite charts, plus dynamic aspects – the effects of transits and progressions on the relationship.

This module is suitable for those who have a good grasp of natal chart interpretation (Foundation course) and dynamic chart interpretation (Intermediate levels 1, 2 & 3).

Advanced Astrology

The Advanced Astrology course is for those who are really serious about astrology!   If you’ve come this far, you’ve probably got your sights set on becoming a professional astrologer, or like many of us, by now you are just completely addicted!

Each module is 10 units, usually run as a 10-week course, or can be run as a 5-week intensive with double classes.

Please contact me if you are interested in joining an Advanced class or studying at this level privately.

Please note that not all modules run each year as classes.

 

Advanced 1: Mundane Astrology

Don’t be fooled by the name!  The Advanced 1 module explores the astrology of the collective, including major planetary cycles, political astrology and world events.  Mundane Astrology actually means the Astrology of the World – that is, Political Astrology and the Astrology of Nations – the charts of when nations come into being.  Yes, countries also have charts!!!

In this module we also study the greater cycles of the planets, such as the Jupiter-Saturn cycle, or the Uranus-Pluto cycle, and their impact on the collective, looking at how cosmic signatures are reflected in events associated with a particular generation, or significant points in the history of the collective.

For me this is one of the most fascinating modules in the whole Astrology programme that I run!
