Solar Fire is a Windows astrology software jam packed with features and goodies. In this session Rhonda will cover some of the basic settings to help you turn your program into a useful tool to easily prepare what you want from your software.

Good set up means you have more time to work on your astrology, rather than fiddle with your software. She will look at some setting options, creating display point sets, aspect sets, extra point sets, how to cast a chart and the myriad of options available; as well as how to use the dynamic and predictive features, reports and interpretations.

In this five week workshop, Carmen Turner-Schott gives practical advice and tips on how to implement self-care strategies to overcome challenges and help each student gain greater self-awareness and understanding of the patterns of these two spiritually transforming houses. This class can benefit astrology students, seasoned astrologers, beginners, and those who want to learn how to counsel individuals with eighth and twelfth-house planets. Carmen will discuss why she feels that twelfth-house people are "Angels" and eighth-house people are "Phoenixes". She believes people who planets here possess special psychic abilities, talents, and gifts. They are here to help others and are natural psychologists.

The eighth house is the most resilient house in astrology. It rules death, regeneration, rebirth, healing, transformation, sexuality, behind-the-scenes energy, power, and secrets. All the energy of Scorpio and Pluto brings a heightened awareness of the deep things in life from which most people hide. The twelfth house is the most spiritual and mystical house in astrology. It rules cosmic consciousness, oneness with God, compassion, escapism, solitude, service to others, psychic abilities, imagination, sleep, dreaming, addiction, secrets, and much more. All the energy of Neptune and Pisces brings a heightened awareness of the spiritual world and the divine.

Real client stories, case examples, handouts, exercises, and student experiences will be shared in a supportive atmosphere. Student charts will be submitted before the class for Carmen to have to incorporate into the sessions.
