Originally taught in a monthly format throughout 2015, complete recordings of each class are now available for purchase! Note that if you would like personal attention and engagement, Austin is hosting upcoming/ current series of 2018 Fundamentals.

The Fundamentals of Astrology course aims to help the student gain a thorough understanding of the vocabulary and concepts used in every branch and school and astrology. By the end of the course, the student should be well equipped to further explore any branch. The aim here is to create a firm technical foundation by focusing on the shared fundamentals of astrology.

This class is cut into 8 modules, each of which deal with one part of astrology’s key pieces. Though meant to be taken sequentially, students with pre-existing experience are encouraged to drop in on a class in order to fill in gaps in their knowledge or refine their understanding of the subject.

MONTH 1: Planets (4 recordings)
The Planets, Day and Night, Benefics and Malefics, Inner and Outer

MONTH 2: The Zodiac (4 recordings)

MONTH 3: Houses (4 recordings)
Angularity, Dark Houses, Configuration to the Ascendant, Families of Houses

MONTH 4: Aspects (4 recordings)

MONTH 7: Synodic Cycles (4 recordings)

MONTH 8: Synthesis (unavailable)
The live Fundamentals of Astrology class features an 8th module called “Synthesis”, which focuses on pattern recognition, contradictory factors, and angles of approach to help integrate and cohere all the information learned in previous modules. Since this step is personalized and relies on more direct student-teacher transmission and guidance, Synthesis is not offered as a recorded product. If you would like to join the next round of Synthesis as a standalone live module, it will be held in November of 2018. Sign up here.
