Welcome to the Astro Logos 
Summer School 2007:
Aspects Of Your Chart.

 
If you wish to be on our early notice list for furture schools then click here.
 

The Astro Logos Summer School will be held in July and August, 2007. 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 Summer 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 summer of 2007 (or winter 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 summer, 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 Summer 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, 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 audio lectures sent to you as MP3 files plus extensive handouts as well as the Astro Logos Delineation Workbook (164 pages) and you are given extensive feedback on your developing skills of delineating the aspects in a chart.  

Who is able to enrol in the Summer School?

The Summer School is designed for those students with some basics of astrological education - knowledge of houses, signs, planets - 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.  If you want to consider the learning package to prepare you for the school, then click here.

What astrological knowledge do I need to have before I enrol in the Summer 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


Size of class
Please note that course size is limited to twenty 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 Summer School?
All teaching for the Summer Schools is in English. Applicants must satisfy themselves and the organisers of the Summer 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.



                                             Practicalities
                  How does the  Summer School work?


How long does it run? The Summer School will run for for six weeks from July to August 2007

Materials. Materials consist of audio lectures delivered on CD by Air Mail post and the spiral-bound A4
Astro Logos Delineation Workbook (164 pages) containing the Myths of the Zodiac and the key planetary combinations.

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, Living with Change: The Astrology of Dealing with Crisis and The Horoscope's Angles) by email list discussion for the exclusive use of the Summer School students. Our classes fit into your daily life - no matter what time zone you are in.

What equipment do I need? 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). 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. There's no special software, no logging in through a browser, no Web sites or HTML involved. You don't even need broadband or high speed access.

A
part from the parcel we post you to get you started, everything else from the Summer School classroom arrives on your desk as regular emails. There are no specific times that you must be online - you simply send in written work by a particular day so you can receive feedback along with the rest of the class. This allows you to work on the class material at your convenience. It's the ideal way to take a class.

How does it work? The Summer School is primarily an ongoing, intensive workshop.
The classes take place via the lectures you receive by post and the special Summer School email 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.

Most of the classes are structured around weekly assignments sent as a PDF attachment.
At the beginning of each week, you will be advised as to what audio lectures to listen to and Darrelyn (your tutor) will send you a short written exercise to complete by the end of the week. You then complete the assignment and send it to us via the email list.

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.

Even though the email-list provides a degree of anonymity, 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.

Can I continue on studying with Astro Logos like this? This is a stand-alone course for those who wish to step forward with their basic astrology and learn to read simple aspects in a chart. However, for those who would like to study for course accreditation with Astro Logos and continue on to reading  and interpreting whole charts, we offer students the option of enrolling in the next module which is the Interim Level of Delineation On-line School. 

The fees for the 2007 Summer School are: the six week Summer School including all lectures and the book the Astro Logos Delineation Workbook cost £245.00 (about $400 US). The fees need to be paid in full before the commencement of the Summer School.

How do I enrol for classes? Students can use our secure registration form and pay by credit card. We accept VISA and MasterCard or if you are in the UK you can pay by Switch or by personal cheque made out to "Astro Logos", in UK pounds and posted to: PO Box 168, Fishponds, Bristol BS16 5ZX, UK.
