Beginning I Astrology Classes The Symbolic Language of the Heavens

  • The Gathering Lighthouse 26 North Park Avenue Lombard, IL, 60148 United States (map)

In this four-week class we will have fun identifying and understanding the basic elements of a birth chart. Together we will look at what each of the signs, houses, planets and aspects mean, and by their symbols identify them on the horoscope wheel. This is not a class on how to interpret a birth chart! Not yet at least!

When student’s sign-up for class they will need to provide their birth information. This includes the person's first and last name, birth date (month-day-year), birth time (on the birth certificate), and birth place (just the city or town). This way Dave Gunning can prepare charts ahead of time and have them for students by the first evening of class.  Participants can then study their natal chart as the class proceeds.  Students MUST contact Dave prior to the first evening of class to provide their birth information- astrogunning@sbcglobal.net.

 All you need is a notebook and pen!  There will be suggested books to read as we go along. Dave recommends purchasing the book “Sun Signs” by Linda Goodman. You can order this book through the “Quest” bookstore in Wheaton, or Amazon.com. There will also be handouts from week to week!
