​Astrology and the Symbolic Imagination is our signature course, enshrining our approach to astrology. It is taught by four of the core contributors to the CAMS project. Each of these tutors is an experienced individual voice in contemporary astrology and each offers their unique perspective – yet together we are united in the ground of our approach, placing central importance on the faculty of symbolic imagination and on the inspiration of the archetypes as a living presence. 

Together, these perspectives create a prism through which to understand the complex and often elusive and mysterious subject of astrology. The emphasis in this course is on astrology as an invitation into dialogue with the archetypal world, as participants in an ensouled cosmos.

All four tutors are practising astrologers and the course flows out of our many decades of client work and teaching. The aim is to provide you with ideas and tools to enrich your understanding and practice.

Astrology abounds with techniques, but these can sometimes serve to build technical knowledge at the expense of a deeper and more meaningful view. The work of CAMS is to invite astrologers into a participatory mode that acknowledges technique as being in service to the symbol, the symbol as a threshold into psyche, and the chart as sacred space.  

Why take this course?

• To develop a deeper relationship to the symbols and patterns of the birth chart.

• To enrich your understanding of your own chart and your work with clients, through developing a more symbolic and archetypal point of view.

• To engage with the magical, mythical and divinatory dimensions of astrological work.

• To use techniques with greater awareness and develop astrological wisdom.

​Anyone interested in the approach taken by the Centre, or thinking of following one of our other courses, is encouraged to take this signature course.
