Astrology Courses and Astrology Classes

Why is AstroDatabank presenting this comprehensive list of astrology courses and astrology classes? Because the AstroDatabank CD is the only astrology software specifically designed as a learning and research tool. Our company motto is "…software to create better astrologers" and that is our mission. Without education there would be no research.

The astrological schools and instructors listed here are operated by astrologers who meet our criteria in astrological education. Primarily, the schools and instructors listed here have recognition of their peers as having completed a level of certification, recognition or ability that would qualify them to conduct astrological education. AstroDatabank cannot endorse any one school or guarantee results; so this list is provided as information to begin or extend your astrological education.

Currently, AstroDatabank is working with selected schools that will offer AstroDatabank software at discounts ranging from 10% to 40% off the price of our software to registered students. You may contact us at info@astrodatabank.com for more information.

AstroDatabank is the perfect complement to your astrology courses. It is the only astrology software specifically designed as a learning and research tool.

With AstroDatabank you can import charts from other astrology software and produce customized study guides. What do we mean by a customized study guide? Imagine you could get a listing of all your friends' and relatives' planets, sorted by sign and house. Imagine how much easier it would be to learn the delineations in the text books if you had a "cheat sheet" of everyone you know with Venus in Aries, Venus in Taurus, Venus in Gemini, etc. With AstroDatabank, the pace of your learning astrology will be supercharged by being able to study astrological factors in a more systematic fashion.

Furthermore, you will be working with people that you know well. What do you know (or care?) about Ronald Regan's Venus function? If you really want to know how Venus works, study it in the context of people you know well. With AstroDatabank you can study signs, houses and aspects in as systematic a way as the way it is delivered to you in school. Click here for some sample study guides.

One more thing. Imagine you could go through history and look up famous people who had the same troublesome aspects as you do and see how they fared with it? With AstroDatabank you can look up everyone who has Venus square Saturn from the 7th to the 10th house. Or you can look up everyone with arthritis to see what chart factors they have in common. You could spend hours perusing the Databank looking at one fascinating chart after another.

And that's just the point. The fastest way to be come a better astrologer is to read more charts. AstroDatabank has the largest collection of well documented biographies and charts in the world.

We invite you to visit our site frequently, where you will find:
