Western and WaveForm together
One placement, two readings
WaveForm astrology, our School’s own method, is a breakthrough inside Western astrology. It works from the frame of our current scientific discoveries and brings into Western theory insights that were not available before, and it reads each placement as the work of a function in the person, with what the client can do there. Our students learn the Western reading and the WaveForm reading on the same charts, training by training. Here is Mars in Cancer, read both ways.
The Western reading
Mars in Cancer
Mars is in its fall in Cancer. The Western reading describes drive that moves through feeling and protection: action taken for home and family, often indirect, and slow to start until the ground feels safe.
The WaveForm reading
Mars in Cancer
WaveForm asks how this person makes decisive action hold in a medium of care. Action is most coherent when it is taken for what the person protects. Before each significant act they name the person, project or value it serves. Where the habit is to wait until every feeling is secure, they treat the act itself as care.
From WaveForm Astrology, Section 18.11

How you are tested
Every segment, to 100%
After each segment of instruction the student takes a test on it, three to five questions of multiple choice, yes or no, or select all that apply, and every answer must be correct. A wrong answer means watching the segment again and then a retest of only the questions missed, until every question is answered correctly. The student studies in the Training Center of the Backoffice, with progress kept in hours and a question guide to print for every training, and each session with our teachers opens when the trainings of its Part are passed at 100%.

The course and its makers
Instruction re-formed with WaveForm
Our Head Master authored and recorded hundreds of hours of training in Western astrology and the Tarot for our YouTube channel. Since 2022 most of his working hours, weekends included, have gone into this work and into our diviner certification programs. In the course for diviners WaveForm astrology is taught beside the Western system in every training, across 100 hours of instruction video.
The Academy stands apart from the Mystery School. A diviner can be certified without entering the grades, and an Aspirant can walk the grades without seeking certification. The ritual work belongs to the Mystery School alone.

Questions
Before you enroll
Knowing astrology before you start
No knowledge of astrology is needed. Part I starts at how a chart is made. The tests are the measure, and a student who already reads charts passes the tests of Part I sooner.
The cost
The certification is $997. Paid at once, it is $797, a discount of $200. It can also be paid in 4 payments of $249.25 over 4 months, billed automatically each month on the date of the first payment, for the full $997. It covers everything from the segment tests in the Backoffice Training Center to the time with our teachers: the segment tests, the question guides to print, the sessions with our two teachers booked online, access to AstrologyPro.com for the five recorded readings, the review of those readings, the certificate, three months on AstrologyPro.com free with the badge of our Academy, and the books WaveForm Astrology and The Divine Arcana Tarot as PDF, yours to keep and read beside the trainings, with no test on them. The instruction videos are free on YouTube and can be studied before you pay.
How much instruction there is
The course has 100 hours of instruction video: 61 trainings with 97 hours of instruction (30 in astrology, 29 in the Tarot and 2 for the practicum), and the two Software Engine trainings of 3 hours. It is set out in 1,125 segments in the order of the curriculum, and every segment of the trainings ends in a test.
When an answer is wrong
Every answer must be correct. When one is wrong, the student watches that segment again and is then tested only on the questions missed, until every question of the segment has been answered correctly. Then the next segment opens.
The question guides
Every training has a question guide to print, with all its questions in order and a box to tick beside each, and every Part has one too, so a student can study with the paper beside the video. The guides come stamped with the student’s name.
How long it takes
The student goes through the segments in order and moves on as each test is passed, so the time it takes depends on the student. Each session with a teacher opens when its work is done.
The Academy and the Mystery School
The Academy and the Mystery School are separate. A diviner can be certified without entering the grades, and the ritual work belongs to the Mystery School alone.
Practicing on AstrologyPro.com
Every graduate receives three months on AstrologyPro.com free, with the graduate badge, and graduates are free to practice where they choose.
