Renowned archetypal astrologer, Dr. Laurence Hillman, and Kosmos Institute are delighted to launch an annual curriculum devoted to the study and practice of archetypal astrology.

Astrology is enjoying a booming renaissance and it is worth wondering: Why? The general feeling seems to be that as we shift into new paradigms and world views associated with the Age of Aquarius, the individual focus on external validation through the acquisition of material goods, fame, and power is shifting, as well, leading many to a search for meaning.

Dr. Hillman's focus in these courses is to equip all levels of astrologers with the practical tools needed to understand the meaning and purpose of universal archetypal forces—principles whose active influence in our lives is represented in astrology through the placement, movement, and interaction between the planets, the houses, the signs, and the aspects.

Dr. Hillman is particularly adept at encouraging students to move past their inherited assumptions and judgments to penetrate further into the rich symbolism of astrological events.

The series is organized into four nine-week courses. Each course builds a strong foundation of practical knowledge upon which the next course will expand. The courses can be taken as a one-year foundational series or as individual courses that assist students in advancing further knowledge in one particular area of focus.

These courses come with a promise. If you stick with Laurence Hillman and do the homework you will be able to decipher the complexity of an astrological chart. What initially was a collection of circles, lines, symbols, and numbers will begin to tell a story. You will learn to read in a foreign language and suddenly you are reading poetry. You will learn how astrology can be grasped and even mastered.

Why take these courses when there are other choices? Consider the teacher and the reviews. With nearly fifty years of experience as a practicing astrologer, internationally recognized archetypal astrologer Dr. Laurence Hillman has vast experience in translating the complexity of a chart into practical examples, language, and teachings. His clear, gentle, and organized way of teaching makes learning astrology possible for everyone. There is no fluff in these courses and there are no fillers. Rather, this is about how to use astrology as a useful tool to understand and solve everyday problems. Everything you learn will be useful and applicable immediately to study and decipher your own chart and that of others.
