Chinese Astrology Foundations

This elective subject teaches the foundations of Chinese Solar Astrology, called the ''Four Pillars of Destiny''. Based upon the five elements, you will learn to read the Chinese calendar, including the 10 Heavenly stems and the 12 Earthly branches, and be able to draw a person's birth chart or ''horoscope'. It will cover the skills of analysis to interpret the chart including personal characteristics, relationships, money prospects, skills and career potentials, and general strengths and weaknesses. The Luck Pillars will be taught to enable students to look back retrospectively on a person’s life, as well as project forward, to determine the major themes (relationships, career, money...) that a person is likely to encounter in their life. Numerous case studies of famous people (including actors and politicians) and personal examples will be presented to consolidate the information in the course. An engaging and informative course, Chinese Astrology also provides a forecasting tool for predicting favourable events and time periods, a skill highly regarded by the Chinese, as well as being useful in many other career areas such as Traditional Chinese Medicine, Naturopathy, Counselling and Feng Shui. Students who complete this subject, may wish to complete Chinese Astrology Advanced in order to be eligible to receive the Certificate in Chinese Astrology (Four Pillars).

Geobiology
Considered to be the oldest form of Feng Shui, geomancy attempts to understand and quantify the ‘spirit of a place’. Why are some places on earth ‘sacred’ whilst others cause illness (geopathic stress)? Using dowsing as a tool, students will learn to detect the various forms of geopathic stress on a site such as geological fault lines, geomagnetic fields, ley lines, water courses and learn to make the remedies to address these. Practical exercises and a field trip will consolidate the information in this subject to enable the student to conduct a geomantic appraisal of a site. This subject is available in Sydney and Melbourne. If you are doing this subject via correspondence, you will need to complete the practical aspect (field audits) during the 10 day intensive.

Modern Feng Shui
(Sick Building Syndrome)
Considered to be the most important core subject in the course, it provides an overview of the health hazards that may exist in a home from allergens like dust,dust mites and mould to electromagnetic fields, air and water contaminants. We will teach you about your household products, how to read the labels, which ingredients to avoid, their adverse health effects, and more importantly what to look for in a good product. Most importantly, the subject will focus on ways to reduce and/or avoid one's exposure to these contaminants in order to create a home that supports your client's physical and mental wellbeing. You will learn how electromagnetic fields can affect a compass reading as this is a common mistake made by practising Feng Shui consultants. If you are doing this subject via correspondence, you will need to complete the Electromagnetic field practical during the 10 day intensive. For the timetable click here
