INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGICAL ASTROLOGY WITH JUDITH A. ROBERT, PH.D. 8 Wednesdays, September 24 through November 12, 2014 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm “Jung’s advice is to ‘be what you have always been’, and this is the real path to inner integration and to relating with others. One of the greatest assets of the [astrology] chart with its interwoven patterns, especially if taken in conjunction with typology, is that it can provide a richer, more comprehensive picture of what one has always been – which is also what one can potentially be.” -Liz Greene Astrology is an ancient art that began in early Mesopotamian as mankind tried to understand the movement of the heavens and saw the reflection of their lives in the planetary cycles. This tradition has continued until today but now we recognize that the movements of the planets are metaphors for life transitions, and the symbolic nature of astrology lends itself to deeper psychological reflection. This course will provide an introduction to a psychological approach to the Astrology Horoscope and focus on learning how to use mythology to understand the meaning of the Zodiac Signs, Houses and the Sun, Moon and Planets. Students will learn to apply mythology to a psychological understanding of the Astrology Horoscope. Readings will be from Liz Greene’s The Astrology of Fate and handouts from various texts on mythology. This course is appropriate for both beginners as an introduction to psychological astrology as well as to advanced students interested in a mythological background to astrology.
