Starting September 2025 a year-long course for practitioners and others to learn astrology to use in clinical practice. The aim of the course is show how Astrology can deepen and enrich your practice as a herbalist or other practitioner and to give you practical skills to use Astrology, both as Temperament and Decumbiture in your practice and then offer optional continuing supervision to build confidence and technique.
I have been using astrology in my practice for over 40 years and have found it invaluable to understand my clients, choose my remedies and adjust my practice from a symptom based to a holistic approach to healing body, mind, spirit and emotions.
I outline my practice in my book Traditional Western Herbal Medicine Aeon Books (1999)
To accommodate overseas students we will meet at 08.30 on Sundays.
Classes will last 60-90 minutes and there will be time for questions.
The recordings will be available for 3 months after each lesson and thereafter will form part of a standalone course.

Course FAQs
How much study time is involved?
There won’t be much study time, students will be able to buy my book at a discount and then I will ask them to read the relevant chapter in the book. But this is optional.
I like charts for learning and so over the course you will fill in a couple of charts which give a quick reference guide to use what you have learnt.
Optionally, as we go along you can look at people you know and think about how what we studied fits in with what you know about them.
I am a practical person so I will keep theory to the minimum needed to work with astrology.
If you are practicing, it will be helpful to collect birth data from your clients and have that when we work out temperaments and treatment protocols and later decumbiture.
The recording of each class will be available for 3 months, so you can listen to the class again.
The classes are mostly fortnightly as weekly classes can be overwhelming I find.
Your own understanding brings the subject alive.
Can I join if I don’t know anything about herbs?
Yes you can.
What if I can’t make all the classes?
The class will be recorded, and the recording will be available to catch up. Recordings will be available for 3 months. The reason I chose the time is so people in other time zones can join in, but I understand it is not always possible.
How long will the recordings be available for?
The recording will be available for 3 months after the lesson only. Then I plan to make them into an online course which will be sold via Teachable making it more expensive as there are fees to pay there. This will be done at a later date.
Is there a payment plan?
You can pay for the whole term up front or in 2 halves, the second payment is due before the 4th class: October 26th.
How do I join?
Payment allows you to join the course. Email for payment details.
Where is it held?
Classes are held on Zoom. The link will be send the day before the meeting.
Is there support between classes?
You have the option to join our Whats App group where you can interact with other students and ask questions.
Can I invite other people?
Yes.
