For the beginner
As I mentioned in my last post, I am delighted to be teaching again this year starting with a Level 1 Astrology Class. My teaching style is fun and yet comprehensive. You will learn a ton of astrology in just three months.
This course is for anyone interested in astrology but knows little about it AND also for anyone who knows some basics but needs to formalize their knowledge and learn how to synthesize a natal chart.
You will learn:
- the planets, signs and houses in depth
- elements and modalities
- the angles of a chart, hemispheres and quadrants
- zodiacal state (how each planet functions in each sign)
- the five major aspects as well as the quincunx
- the qualities of each of the ascendants and how to recognize each ascending sign
- the phases of the Moon
- chart and aspect patterns
- how to complete a chart wheel by hand
- Melanie’s special method for chart delineation
At the end of 12 weeks, you will be able to delineate any birth chart from an introductory point of view.
Email me directly if you would like any more information or would like to register for this class.

For the advanced student or practising astrologer
For the more advanced student, I will also be teaching a two part course on the Morin Tradition, each eight weeks long.
If you are interested in signing up for the first part of the course, please email me to get on my waitlist. I will be scheduling these classes sometime in the next couple of months once enough people are interested. Dates/times TBA but I will try to work with everyone’s schedules as much as I can.
The Morin Tradition Part 1
This class is for students who have an existing knowledge of astrology or who have completed Levels 1 and 2. You’ll never look at astrology charts the same way again after learning Morin’s methodology! The first of this two-part course will sharpen your abilities to accurately and quickly judge the character, abilities, challenges and overall future of a natal chart. We look at Morin’s theory of determination, determining cause and effect, planetary influence, combining aspects, analogies, zodiacal state and more. I will introduce you to my personal chart delineation method (mostly based on Morin) that will always get to the heart of any natal chart.
Readings are given each week. We spend our time in class working on our own charts. Each class is 90 minutes long. All notes are provided.
Dates/Times – Weekly 90 min class once a week for 8 weeks (Dates/Times TBA)
Prerequisite: CAAE Levels 1 and 2 or equivalent
Cost: $390 CAD

We spend a great deal of time delineating charts and have a couple of classes devoted to the charts of serial killers.

What students are saying:
“Love your teaching style — informative, personal, interactive, and you’re so patient and supportive while we try to absorb all the info.”
“I am so grateful to have found you; you are a great teacher and I love your methodical, no nonsense approach to the chart.”
“Melanie… I was thinking how grateful I am that you were my first teacher…Your classes were always fun and friendly and had a certain levity to them which I really enjoyed. As I’ve taken more webinars and classes, I realize how special that quality is and not everyone has it… thank you for being my teacher and bringing me along. You changed my life.”
“I think you’re an excellent teacher and that makes me that much more excited to learn it. I love the information you share and the way in which you share it. I find the analogies helpful as well and quite enjoy them! Thank you for all the energy you put into your classes and teaching.”
“… the course that you put together is phenomenal and was so worth the wait. It really helped me strengthen my knowledge from all prior courses with you and see how it all comes together. Thank you for your hard work, dedication and all the well-thought-out content you prepare for your students and how you deliver it, making every class interesting and engaging.”
“Melanie, I’d like to share that I have taken other courses and have had other readings of my chart and none come close to what you offered in terms of an in-depth and well written take-away package. As I continue my astro studies, [your course notes and charts] continue to provide me with a wealth of knowledge. I’m not saying this to disparage the other astrologers I’ve worked with but rather to give credit where it’s due. Thank you!”
