NOTE: This is not a regular CEU course and course trajectory. The information of Chinese Astrology is sacred and karmic, and must be treated as such. In order to preserve the sacred integrity of the information, knowledge and the Tan lineage, Dr. Sonia Tan will be requiring some homework in order to move on to the higher levels. There is no proper singular reference book, nor are notes given. Students will be asked to take hand-written notes to encourage muscle memory when learning to write the Chinese characters. This is a brief introduction into the language of Chinese Astrology and advanced metaphysical learning. After this course, in true Astrology fashion, students should be determining if the timing is aligned with themselves and their goals.
