AQUARIUS

Mercury, planet of communication joins Mars (action), Jupiter (expansion) and Neptune (spiritual alignment) in your sign so you are quickly able to grasp a situation and use it to your advantage. Original judgment

PISCES

The Sun’s movement into your sign on Thursday increases your receptivity to all that is around you. If the last month has been spent on an inner journey it is now time to look outwards and to the future.

ARIES

Contacts or connections made this week could be extremely advantageous to all concerned. Collaboration and cooperation brings an organisation together to share a common purpose.

TAURUS

Our astrological bulls usually take a slow, measured approach to anything romantic but indications seem to imply a rather sudden attraction that has everything to do with the physical (or should I say lust).

GEMINI

There is a shift in the way you think - whereas you have been concentrating on a particular area now you are able to branch out and perceive a wider picture. This opens the door for more possibilities.

CANCER

Try and sort those routine affairs out around mid to late week as this will free you up towards the weekend when you will be wanting more freedom and space to do your own thing.

LEO

You seem to be working at cross-purposes today, which can be attributed in no small way to the manner in which you left the house this morning. You see yourself one way; it may be wise to see the person others see.

VIRGO

After the excesses of Christmas and New Year it is that time of year when thoughts should be tuning into a more healthy and balanced lifestyle. Start surfing the net for something that appeals.

LIBRA

Astrological significators seem to suggest this could be a very social week particularly for getting in touch with those friends whom for one reason or another you were unable to catch up with over Christmas / New Year.

SCORPIO

If there have been upsets in the past then this week is conducive to getting together with family / parents so that any quarrels or disputes can be worked through with collaboration and cooperation.

SAGITTARIUS

If you have been formulating any ideas or plans seize the opportunity available to you this week to get out there and seek the co-operation you need or spread the word. This may involve some travel.

CAPRICORN

There may have been a lot a action around your financial sector and now with Mercury moving into this area also your attention turns to defining those things in life that you value.

The Wollongong College of Astrology

Astrology classes commencing February 2009

Patricia Shepherd started her serious study of astrology well over 28 years ago and is an accredited teacher (AAT) with the Federation of Australian Astrologers. The FAA was formed in 1970 and is dedicated to the astrological principles of education and research, promoting friendly contact between astrologers throughout Australia supporting a National Code of Ethics.

Patricia founded the Wollongong College of Astrology in 1998. Her students are encouraged, although it is not compulsory, to sit the FAA examinations with all successful candidates’ qualifications being recognised internationally. She is also a member of the FAA Exam Board and is a foundation member and President of The Association of Professional Astrologers (The APA) and has a Diploma in Psychotherapy and Relationship Counselling from Jansen Newman Institute (JNI) and a Graduate Diploma in Gestalt Psychotherapy from the Illawarra Gestalt Centre, both internationally recognised training programs. Patricia is an Astrological Consultant/Counsellor at Natural Health on Bellevue, 21 Bellevue Rd Figtree.

The 2-year basic astrology course follows the syllabus of the FAA with students working on their own charts and after they have learnt how to calculate an Astrological Chart, that of family and friends. This is a very personalised course promoting self-awareness and growth so whether you require more understanding of self and others or wish to become a professional astrologer this course is designed for the beginning student. A 3rd year and advanced study is also offered if numbers make it viable.
