Michael Conneely, Ilkley Happiness Centre Astrologer, explains how his worldwide distance astrology courses can offer really illuminating and practical insights into anybody’s life.
How can something as ancient and apparently mystical as astrology help in these highly technical, materialistic and busy times we live in?
Well, as I see it, astrology helps us understand ourselves and those around us with greater clarity so that we can make better choices and navigate more smoothly through the complexities of modern life with all its diversity and rapid change.
Understanding your birth chart offers you deep insights into your true nature. It can highlight areas of natural strengths and enable us to really value abilities which we might otherwise simply take for granted and consider commonplace and it can guide us into ways of channelling those abilities into the world – in the form of a career path, hobby or lifestyle choice. In short, it can show us how we can be most happy and productive. Equally, astrology can pinpoint areas that we need to develop or can give an awareness of how we come over to others, something that may be partially hidden from us. For example, our chart may reveal that our ‘default setting’ is that we lack assertion and need to find ways of expressing our needs more clearly and directly or alternatively we could become so over-enthusiastic and driven that we become insensitive to other people. Understanding this, without judgement, can help us to use this awareness to function more effectively in the world and get along better with others.
Learning astrology, through one of my very caring and supportive courses, can really help you ‘make friends’ with yourself. Rather than trying to be like everybody else in your family or workplace it can enable you to be the best you you can be, to let your own light shine. After all you don’t get willow trees trying to be oaks or labradors trying to be greyhounds, yet we an unwittingly do the equivalent to ourselves and wonder why we feel uncomfortable or unhappy.
As a professional astrologer. I have many people coming to consult with me to gain deep and clear insights into what is going on in their life. Yet there is something about learning how to interpret your own chart through a course which is both rewarding and exciting and which makes teaching astrology such a joy for me. The distance course I teach involves going through your own chart planet by planet so you have a sense of building up gradually and unveiling new aspects of yourself with each assignment. By the end of the course you will have a much better understanding and hopefully appreciation of yourself.
And you are also invited to study the chart of two other people. Someone you know well and myself. People will normally choose a partner or family member and understanding their chart can really improve communication and deepen love and relationships.
Do you hate the thought of calculations and figuring out degrees and aspects? Don’t worry we have computers these days to make it all easy and I will provide for you all the charts you need, included in the course fee. My distance course provides a very enjoyable and invaluable ways of shedding light on to who you are and what you’ve come here to do.
So you can see how easy it is to get started and you’ll be surprised at how much you’ve learnt by the end of the basic Western astrology course. As a recent student of mine said after just two modules:
‘Hi Michael I can’t thank you enough for all you are so generously sharing with me, thank you. It was truly a gift to read your insights on my daughter, also what you say about her makes so much sense.’

And for those who want to learn more, I offer further courses on Western and Vedic astrology, prediction and a truly wonderful course on the astrology of relationships compatibility.
