Workshops and short courses
Our online workshops and short courses offer focused, detailed and high-quality teaching over a wide range of subjects. They give a distilled and comprehensive picture of the subject, so that you can then apply the ideas to your own chart and/or use them in your own astrological work.
In each class, there will be time set aside for interactive discussion, so that you can ask questions, apply the ideas to charts, and develop your understanding of the material.
They are suitable for different stages of study. The focus will be on deepening into the symbolism, to extend your skills, encourage deep engagement and develop fluency in chart work.
Classes take place on Saturdays, 3-5pm UK time, online via Zoom.
Please use the form at the bottom of this page to register for any workshop or short course. We will then send you details of how to pay.
Each workshop includes an in-depth presentation by the tutor along with time for questions and chart work. A recording is made of each workshop and you will have access to the recording for 30 days. You will also receive a PDF of the slide presentation.
Each workshop is recorded and you will have access to stream the recording for 30 days. We also send a PDF of the slides used in the workshop. Some workshop recordings are only available to those who attend live - please see the individual workshop descriptions below.

Our Workshops for Autumn 2026
Exploring Persephone
Kim Farley
Saturday 26 September 2026
3-5pm UK time (BST)
Online via Zoom
£40
Please note that since this workshop is about personal participation, the recording made will only be available to those who attend live.
Few are those who move between the worlds. But I was one. Or I became one, as I became Queen
from the seed of Kore. In the core was the seed of my power and in swallowing those seeds the path was sown. The return. The cycle of certain death and resurrection. The flowering that cannot be refused, try as we may. The blossom as it dies creates the seed.
As might be expected, having been named for the Queen of the Underworld, Persephone’s themes mirror both the loss and the reclamation of agency and power. How might experiences of being chosen but having no choice, or being forced into some kind of descent, eventually flower into transformation and sovereignty?
Persephone was discovered at the end of the 19th century and has an orbital period of a little under five and a half years, reflecting its position in the great asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Currently it’s in Taurus, where it will have an extended stay due to retrograde motion.
As with all myths, Persephone’s symbolism offers a fund of illumination for our personal narrative. We’ll look at chart examples from the wider world and explore our own individual astrology and stories.
This session will be a safe and confidential place to share and learn together. The nature of the material means that the workshop recording will only be available to those who can take part live
Annual Profections
Prue Nichols
Saturday 3 October 2026
3-5pm UK time (BST)
Online via Zoom
£40
Not all years feel the same.
The ancient astrologers knew this.
They understood that time has a texture – that each year of a life arrives with its own atmosphere, its own demands, its own particular quality. Some years ask us to go inward. Others push us outward, into relationship, vocation, release or unexpected beginnings.
Annual Profections is one of the oldest timing techniques in the astrological tradition. Elegant in its simplicity, it reveals which house governs your current year, and which planetary Lord presides over it. As the author of Stars Aligned, it is the technique I return to most often – and the one that continues to astonish me.
This workshop is deliberately intimate – a maximum of ten people – because the most important chart we will work with is yours. Together we will identify your current profection year, meet your Lord of the Year and trace how these cycles have moved through your life. We will also explore how to bring this technique into client work, offering your readings greater context, precision and depth.
You will leave knowing exactly which chapter you are living. And what it is asking of you.
Hecate: Goddess of the Dark
Carole Taylor
Saturday 28 November 2026
3-5pm UK time (BST)
Online via Zoom
£40
There Asteria conceived and bore Hecate, whom Zeus son of Kronos honoured above all others, granting her magnificent privileges: a share both of the earth and of the undraining sea. From the starry heaven too she has a portion of honour, and she is the most honoured by the immortal gods.
- Hesiod, Theogony
Hecate is a goddess of the deep instincts, a source of wisdom that we all hold within us. She guards the process of transition from one state to another, being present at times of change. Holding three flaming torches, she lights the way and is a guide in times of darkness, when something new is stirring but not yet born – through Hecate, we enact the rites of transition.
Hesiod spoke of her honoured place among the gods, holding a share of the three realms of earth, sea and sky – a presence throughout the cosmos and daughter of starry Asteria, both goddesses of the pre-Olympian order. In later accounts, her realm was magic, witchcraft and the night. Along with Hermes, she is present at the crossroads and protector of boundaries and doorways – liminal spaces between worlds. Assisting Demeter in her search for Persephone, she became Persephone’s companion in Hades.
In this session, we will explore the asteroid Hecate, working with the charts of those in the group as well as examples from the wider world. We will also see how her archetype may be reflected not only in the asteroid itself, but also in other placements in the chart which resonate to her myths.
