Astrology Course


Astrology: Interpretation and Divination

by Nadiya Shah in partnership with Symbolic Living

This is a study at home course in an e-book download format. You get over 100 pages in our Astrology e-book.

With this course you’ll be building a solid foundation to a new or established astrological practice.

You also receive a host of invaluable resources and information as part of your learning included with our Astrology e-book.

Plus you get access to discussions, questions and answers, as well as Charts of your peers in the Astrology Alumni section at the Symbolic Living Forum to further assist your learning and connect you with other students who have taken the course.

This course encompasses an in depth exploration of astrology and self examination in 12 parts with suggested assignments and provides references specially selected by Nadiya for your further exploration, accessed at your convenience.

Astrology is a rich practice, and in many ways, the most experienced practitioner is always a student. That is part of the fun! No matter how long you do or do not practice it, it is always there, ready to pick up and provide insights, self-knowledge, and self-trust. This course will meet you where you are whether advanced student or total newbie, in helping your practice grow and thrive.

Each part begins with a lesson followed by questions for consideration, exploration and learning, suggested assignments and/or readings. The more you engage in the learning the more you will gain. This is a self study program designed to enhance your  astrology practice at your convenience with an organized approach to learning.

Learn conveniently at your own pace, trusting your own intuition, and do as much as feels right for you.

My intention is for all students to feel supported in the strengthening of their practice, and to help you cultivate a greater appreciation for this very special tradition.

Throughout this 12-part  course students are encouraged to explore their own charts as well as others, including family and friends to see the connections made between the lessons and what is evident in the lives of those around them as we lay the groundwork for a flourishing new practice to begin.

Assignment questions are designed to get you thinking and applying the knowledge with practical experience. There are no mandatory textbooks to purchase. This ebook also provides you with a host of resources to further assist you in exploring your passion for astrology.

There is no specific school of astrology taught here, though an emphasis is placed on the psychological experience of the person, which the chart represents, over the prediction of likely external events. There is space here to explore it all, though the inner growth symbolized in the chart examined will be placed as a priority. My expertise lies in the area of Western Astrology, its history, development and techniques.

Message From Nadiya,

Hello Everyone!

Thank you for being a part of this amazing Astrological journey. A little about me.

I am a Consulting Astrologer, Sun Sign Columnist, and one of the few people in the world to hold an M.A. in the Cultural Study of Cosmology and Divination, from the University of Kent, United Kingdom.

My belief is that Astrology and Divination are tools that can be used to gain insights to the energy of a moment. I use it personally to help me gain clarity and consider where my current choices are leading. What I love most about Divination is that it makes me aware of the power of my free will and choices today. No matter what is going on right now, I can choose how I am going to interpret it and choose how I will exercise my perspective.

There is a metaphysical and intuitive side to it as well. Divination is a part of my spiritual practice, and yet another way I seek to communicate with and understand energies. It is something that we all can do if we choose to develop it. I have been fortunate that I have had a long road of continued positive feedback. I believe we all have the gift of intuition, and it is certainly something that can be developed if nurtured. Divination and Astrology are tools of accessing and articulating one aspect of my intuition.

It can be learned by anyone.

I trust, very passionately, that we all deserve to cultivate our own unique, personal connection to Divine energy, regardless of how we understand or articulate it.

Astrology and Divination help me live more in tune with the grand design, knowing there is an ebb and flow to everything. Choice becomes a factor here as well. I can choose what good I will expand on, what good I will close off, and what I will attempt to resist.

The way I understand fate is based in my absolute belief that the Universe is a supremely loving one. At times events will conspire to help us reach the grandest version of our greatest selves. When seen in the most loving and empowering perspective, there is beauty, purpose, and growth in everything.

Astrologically, I prefer to focus on the development of an individual’s soul purpose or soul journey, and perceptions, as opposed to focusing on outside events exclusively. I support exploring the connection between mysticism, spiritual growth, and Astrology. Natal Chart interpretations where I can focus on increasing awareness into a person’s soul development and spiritual journey are most rewarding to me and, I have found, to my clients as well.

If I had a mission statement, it would be to empower people with an awareness of their spiritual strength.

I am pleased to present to you this e-book learning course to be sharing with you my love of Astrology to help you further your Astrological practice.

Very Best Wishes,

*Nadiya

Randomly selected Reviews of Nadiya’s Interactive Online Course.

Please note this course is now available in e-book format for home study, and is not taught live.

  • I loved this course and found it to be very extensive, allowing me to get an understanding of astrology that feels well rounded. I feel so much more confident in this subject now. Nadiya offers so many perspectives and her teaching style was perfect, allowing me to grasp the subject in an enjoyable manner. I loved the interaction in the class with Nadiya and the other students. We each had unique questions and Nadiya’s responses were clear and really showed that she knows what she’s talking about. Her education and experience shines through.
  • Nadiya gave us a great gift in sharing her knowledge in this subject. Now I know how to read charts, and have a greater appreciation of astrology. I really love that she gives us insight into the different types of astrology and looks at the subject from so many different angles and provides us with a lot of additional resources. I feel this course has finally helped me develop a part of myself I’ve been wanting to for so long. Great course!
  • Nadiya is one of those rare individuals who takes into account everyone’s belief systems and perspectives into her responses, so that comprehension of foundational principals on a very complex and undervalued wisdom is fully appreciated, by the wide variety of individuals enrolled regardless of their varying backgrounds skill levels, and life experiences. I hope she’ll offer an intermediate and advanced course as I have only scratched the surface on this amazing discipline and could use further guidance in my continued studies.
  • Excellent work!
  • I was very impressed with the competency and teaching practices of Nadiya. The class was outlined and organized in a professional manner and the material covered was helpful and productive toward my increase of knowledge in the astrology field. Astrology is a very complex subject and covers a vast array of material.
  • I tried to learn astrology on my own but I couldn’t understand it as well until I took Nadiya’s course. Nadiya is a great teacher, she is very articulate and encouraging when replying to our questions. Thank you Nadiya for having this class. I wish the discussion could continue…
