AstroMapping

We live in a modern world where it is common practice to conduct business and relocate across the globe. AstroMapping will help you choose the most prosperous places to live based on your natal chart, or—if you are living in a problematic location based on your natal chart—how to make the most of the planetary influences right where you are.

Explore AstroMapping and Local Space techniques, the basic astronomical principles involved, interactions of mapping with natal and relocated chart interpretation, likely themes connected with planet-angle combos, interpreting potentials in locations, and understanding issues to consider in relocation or home planning.

Why Study AstroMapping

This certificate series provides a solid grounding in AstroMapping. It covers how mapping the planets across a location has evolved and provides the skills to understand and delineate the AstroMap and Local Space Chart/Compass for personal use, or as a tool in your practice.  It enables AstroMappers to work with their clients to unlock their full potential, promoting a world where astrology fosters more conscious human beings living their best lives.
