LCCCGreetings,

There's still time to register for Dennis Acrea's Basic Astrology II. This class will help to integrate your knowledge of the signs and houses into a deeper understanding of how the planets in your personal chart influence your life.

In April, Katherine Zakutansky will share the theory and practice for maintaining balance in one's life in her class Energetic Tools and Techniques for Balance.

Carol, and her talented teaching team, will present the Showcase of Talents, where you will have the opportunity to explore the power of energy and vibration, and their affect on states of consciousness and wellness. As a participant, you will also receive several private sessions with trained workers. Reserve your space now!

Make your plans now to participate in one of these informative and inspiring classes.

See you on campus,

BASIC ASTROLOGY I
DenniZodiacal Clocks Acrea
The Law of Correspondence says: "As above, so below". Astrology takes this a step further, teaching us: "As within, so without; as the Universe, so the Soul." Astrology is the study of planetary cycles and the way our lives correspond to them. Week One of Basic Astrology focuses on the basics of signs and houses, and then applies them specifically to the student's birth sun, moon, and moon's nodes. Participants need to know the date, time, and place of their birth. Required texts will be available for purchase at the Village Bookstore: Soul Purpose Astrology by Margaret Koolman and The Book of Rituals by Carol Parrish-Harra.

March 23 - 27
BASIC ASTROLOGY II

Students of astrology know that the force behind the movement of the planets is the same force that moves each of us. Week Two of Basic Astrology focuses on the other planets, Dennis Acrea with chart floor modeldelving deeper into your birth chart to find symbolism to help intensify your self-awareness. Participants need to know the date, time, and place of their birth. Basic Astrology I is a prerequisite for this course. The same texts will be used.

From theory for increased effectiveness to practical application to ensure proper technique, this seminar, based on Energy Tools and Techniques by Carol E. Parrish, will bring back to mind the many ways we have to assist ourselves as we strive to come "into balance" each day.
