Merry Meet All,

Astrology

Tonight I attended my first Practical Astrology class. Just as I had anticipated, it was chock full of fascinating new things to learn about. I can now understand the basics of a natal chart. I did my own basic natal chart. I found it all so interesting, though I am sure I looked quite adrift ‘in the cosmos’. Ha ha, tongue in cheek. It was boggling to understand at first. Astrology is a map of the sky. A person’s birth chart is a blueprint, in a way, or a plan of a person’s life. A person living their chart is said to be living their Soul Purpose. A person doing the opposite is not living their birth chart and may be unhappy.

We are all women in the group. There are about five of us. The teacher is Wynne Jordan. She has been a professional astrologer for years. Wynne Jordan also studied in Ontario, at Oxford and here. I am going to enjoy the class so much. It goes tonight through to November 25, a bit before my birthday. We all receive certificates at the end of the course. A great birthday present to be sure.

I found the campus to be a bit confusing too, finding the washroom, the classroom and the cafeteria and bookstore. The textbook is called The Weiser Concise Guide to Practical Astrology. Our instructor met the author who is Priscilla Costello. Talk about synchronicity! I was seeking a publisher for an esoteric book I want to write and I looked up the publisher of this book just now. The publisher of my textbook is the same publisher I searched earlier! I am in amazement and awe. That is so synchronous! Only, this is part of the point of astrology. A person may or may not-it is up to the individual- to 1) be influenced by the positions of the sun, planets and horoscope at the time of their birth and Fate may or may not also play a hand. It is a little ungrounded but I have faith in this. Again, that is up to the individual as to what they believe.

After the course, Wynne Jordan offered to drive me home. As we headed to her car, she spotted the Moon and Jupiter in the sky. I was happy to have the chance to spot Jupiter, my ruling planet!! As I walked up my street after she dropped me off, I looked again in the dark starry sky and identified the Moon and Jupiter again. I shall indeed enjoy studying astrology.

I am a Sagittarian and metaphysics, a lifetime of learning, truth seeking, is my path. I am meant to study these things. I want to study and learn all I can. One never stops learning. Sagittarius is my Sun sign and my Rising Sign is Libra. I am living my natal chart.

I hope everyone finds a way to discover their true soul path!
Blessed Be
