The Astro Logos Spring School will be held over six consecutive
weeks in March and April, 2008.
This unique intense learning experience is a place where you can deepen
and sharpen your astrology through tutor-directed study and lectures
combined with on-line interaction, enabling you to connect with other
like-minded students who are all exploring this deeper approach to
charts.
Reading books can help and listening to
lectures can be useful. But the only way to learn astrology is by
working closely with an experienced professional tutor... and that is
what this Spring School offers you.
Our goal is to inspire students through a
programme of intensive learning and teaching excellence, while creating
an exciting yet supportive environment in which to experience astrology.
By the end of the spring of 2008 (or autumn
if you are in the southern hemisphere) you should be able to confidently
and professionally know how to delineate an aspect in a horoscope.
So if you are interested in doing something for yourself this spring,
read on and find out about this exciting innovation.
Course emphasis and content
Have you ever wondered about the full implications of that Venus-Saturn
opposition in your chart? Has it puzzled you that you and your friend
both have a Moon-Pluto conjunction but they have both expressed
themselves so differently? How exactly is that T-square working for you?
This year's Spring School will focus on aspects of your chart (or the
chart of your friend or client) by engaging with the following:
Reading aspects
at a deeper level - How to understand and
talk about
an aspect to clients or friends in an informed manner, and what it means
to have two planets or luminaries joined together by an aspect with each
planet in a different house and sign.
How
this aspect may express itself from worst-case scenario to best-case
scenario from birth or shortly afterwards, through childhood,
adolescence, young adulthood and into present time.
How your history shapes the expression of the natal aspect.

How you can best use this information immediately for yourself to steer
the ship of your life in a more meaningful manner rather than drifting
around, uncertain of your own life needs.
You receive tuition through online, real time tutorials, as well as
audio lectures sent to you as MP3 files, plus extensive handouts which
includes the
Astro Logos Delineation Workbook
(164 pages). You are also given extensive
feedback
on your developing skills of delineating the aspects in a chart.
Who is
able to enrol in the Spring School?
The Spring School is designed for those
students with some basics of astrological education - knowledge of
houses, signs, planets (please see the following point for exact
details) - but who are seeking a great depth to their work. You must
also be at least twenty three years of age.
However, if you have enrolled and find
that you do not have the appropriate knowledge, you are still welcome to
receive the assignments and to read what other students are writing and
the feedback given as a way of helping you to broaden your astrological
understanding.
What astrological
knowledge do I need to have before I enrol in the Spring School?
In order to gain the most from this form
of tuition, we require students to know
the following:
* Basic meanings of the planets and luminaries.
* Basic meanings of the house and what it means to have a
planet/luminary in a natal house.
* The meanings of house rulerships - what it means to have a
planet/luminary in a natal house but ruling another house (or having its
ruling sign intercepted within another house).
* The meanings of interceptions.
* Essential dignities - what it means to have a planet in rulership or
exaltation (as well their opposite, in detriment or fall).
* The basic meanings of aspects
Please note that we assume that students are familiar with the
techniques we teach in
the two Studyshop “The Zodiac” and “The Angles” and the “Planets and
Aspects Kit”. If you are not familiar with these you can explore
them and/or purchase them by

Size of class
Please note that course size is limited to fifteen participants to allow
the tutor to offer input and support to each student in a one-to-one
manner. We therefore encourage early application to ensure your place on
this course.
Language - what level of English do I need
to join the Spring School?
All teaching for the Spring School is in English. Applicants must
satisfy themselves and the organisers of the Spring School that their
English is of a standard high enough for them to be able to understand
and follow arguments written and presented in fluent English.

Where do I go?
You study in the comfort of your own home
and connect with the tutor,
Darrelyn Gunzburg
(co-principal of Astro Logos, author of Life After Grief: An
Astrological Guide to Dealing with Loss and author of the
Studyshops,
Delineation:
Unfolding the story Within a Chart,
and The Horoscope's Angles) through online, real-time tutorials
and by email list discussion for the exclusive use of the Spring School
students. We choose tutorial times carefully so that our classes fit
into your daily life - no matter what time zone you are in - as we have
students form all over the world meeting in the virtual classroom.
What equipment do I need?
1. You need a computer that can play a CD so you can listen to the
lectures (please note the lectures are MP3 format and will not play in a
CD player or your car sound system but will play in an iPod).
2. You also need to be able to send and receive simple text-only emails
- from any location at any time - so you can participate fully in our
classes.
3. For the online tutorials you will need a headset and a webcam
- the webcam is optional but it they are inexpensive and enable everyone
to see each other.
4. We will send you a link from which you download the software, at no
charge to you,
which will enable you to participate in the online tutorials.
How does it work?
The Spring School is primarily an ongoing, intensive workshop.
Once a Week Meetings
One a week you will meet in the Astro Logos virtual classroom for an
hour and a half of teaching. You will then be set a short assignment
which you send in by email for marking. You also have back-up lecture
and study material on CD.
Email Group List
When you register for a class, you are given an address for the class
list, exactly like an email address, except that all mail sent to that
address is automatically forwarded to the tutor and all the other
students in the class.
This means that the tutor and all of the students in the class see all
of the completed assignments.
Darrelyn will then comment on and offer
feedback to each of you on how well the components of the aspect have
been understood and the effectiveness and impact this would have on the
client. This feedback is accessible to all students so all students are
able to learn from each other
and can ask questions about their own as well as other student’s work.
Students very quickly feel part of the "class".
Often a sense of community forms and communication between students goes
on long after the school itself has ended. We encourage class members to
develop ongoing correspondence in which you can share your astrological
thinking.
Many
long-term friendships have been formed from intensives like these.
Class discussions about lessons, assignments, and writing in general
also take place on the email list. The more interaction among students,
the more valuable and enjoyable the class. We encourage students to keep
dialogue supportive and beneficial.

this? This is a stand-alone course
