Introductory Astrology

This class is designed for the beginner and assumes no prior knowledge of the subject. It covers the basic components of the astrological chart, familiarizing the student with the rudimentary vocabulary of astrology.

The class begins Wednesday, January 20 and ends March 24. It will be held at the Metropolitan Atlanta Astrological Society building, 2054 Harobi Drive, Tucker. The building is located right inside the perimeter at the LaVista Road Exit of I-285. Each class lasts 2 hours, starting at 7:00 p.m. Students are encouraged to take copious notes and are welcome to record the classes. Handouts will be provided. Each class will be recorded by the instructor and audio files will be e-mailed to you.

The fee for the 10 weeks is $165 for MAAS Members, $175 for Non-Members.* Once you commit to taking the class, you are responsible for paying the entire fee, via check or credit card. Payments can be split into two. If you are paying by check, you can write two checks at the beginning of the class, post-dating the second check effective the fifth week of the class. If you pay by credit card, you may charge the entire fee at once or charge half at the beginning of the class and the balance at the fifth week of class.
