This 8-week program is based on the New York Times bestselling book Notes from the Universe by Mike Dooley. Based on the principle that "thoughts become things," the program encourages people to examine beliefs and thoughts that have been limiting and may be leading to struggles and negative choices, then helps them discover ways to redirect those beliefs and thoughts. This is an empowering program for people who find themselves in difficult situations, those beginning a new life journey, and everyone looking to bring more peace and joy into their lives.

Jessica Amorosa studied personally with Mike Dooley and has been a certified Ippie (Infinite Possibilities) trainer since 2014. She originally sought training because this book transformed her life and she wanted to help her struggling family members. She now shares this program all over the country, hoping to empower everyone she encounters.

Learn how the uncanny ability to predict the future using Tarot cards can now be explained and confirmed with viable cognitive psychological facts. Today, the application of Tarot card reading can be seen as a form of artificial intelligence that allows us to find new answers and solutions to objectives not seen before sitting down with the cards. Understanding why the Tarot works helps us read with more accuracy. Novice and experienced Tarot readers alike will learn how to use Tarot cards to predict the future with more accuracy than ever before.

In this entertaining four-week class we learn to identify and understand the basic elements of a birth chart. Together, we will look at what each of the signs, houses, planets, and aspects mean, and by their symbols identify them on the horoscope wheel.

When students sign up for class they will need to provide their birth information. This includes first and last name, birth date, birth time (on the birth certificate), and birth place (just the city). Instructor Dave Gunning will prepare charts and have them for students by the first day of class. Participants can then study their natal chart as the class proceeds. Students will need to contact the Theosophical Society or email Dave to provide their birth information.

All you need for class is a notebook and pen!  There will be suggested books to read as we go along, including Sun Signs by Linda Goodman. You can order this book through the Quest Book Shop or Amazon.com. Handouts will also be given each week.  

Dave Gunning has been an astrological consultant, teacher, and lecturer for the past 38 years. He has also written articles for Dell Horoscope magazine. For the past nine years he has been lecturing and teaching astrology through the Stargazers astrology group at the Theosophical Society. His consultations come from a spiritual and psychological point of view.
