Modern Astrology
talks of the inner world of the client.
However, Medieval Astrology complements this greatly by dealing with the outer world:
one's life strengths,
one's ability to achieve goals, one's
profession, one's family and parental
background, one's financial security, one's drive... amongst other things.
When applied constructively to the modern lifestyle, these tools, combined with the enhanced predictive techniques of medieval
and ancient astrology, can be of great assistance to the modern consulting astrologer.
Who can enrol?
The course is open to all astrologers who have a
basic, standard astrological background, achieved after the first two years of
study, for this course is designed to be an overlay to your already-solid basis
of either psychological or traditional astrology and to be a gateway for astrologers into
the enthralling workings of Medieval Astrology.
Since student's come under the personal tuition of Bernadette Brady, you will
need to apply via the Requests for Admission
on-line form. Bernadette will wish to know your astrological background.
Generally there is no pre-enrolment assessment for this diploma however
depending on your background if you do not hold any astrological qualifications
you may be required to complete a assessment - here is an
example of this paper.
Design of the
Diploma
The Diploma is taught over four semesters. Each semester is
studied over a five month period. The course is delivered by multimedia CDs
which contain MP3 files as well as all the handouts.
