If you are interested in astrology but never thought you had the time to begin to learn this complex subject, Goswami Kriyananda’s Beginner’s Guide to Natal Astrology is the course for you!
According to Goswami Kriyananda, “It is easy to learn the basics of Natal Astrology. It is simple because there are only four basic areas for you to understand. However, the insights gained from the science are infinite! Learning astrology is simple and fun, and it can be grasped rapidly.”
This course is a step-by-step guide to understanding the basics of astrology. Goswami takes you from the fundamentals of planets, signs, houses, and aspects, all the way to putting together and reading charts.
