Astrology for Authentic Spiritual Guidance
Many people come to astrologers in need of guidance on deeper spiritual matters, as well as in choosing spiritual paths. They often end up getting guidance pertinent to the astrologer’s world or belief system, or some form of guidance which is actually not directly related to astrology.
This lecture shows astrologers how to use traditional and modern methods that are strictly from the chart and from the theoretical basis of astrology alone, and to use such methods to provide authentic, practical guidance to improving spiritual life.
The astrologer can confidently offer the advice based on sound astrology without requiring knowledge or input from other spiritual beliefs or systems, and the client can confidently seek help without the concern as to whether the astrologer follows the same spiritual paradigms as themselves.
This lecture is appropriate for beginner through advanced students.
