The Divine Art of Astrology

A 10-Week Astrology Immersion to Enrich and Enchant Your Chart Interpretation Skills

Classes offered LIVE & Recorded for Self-Paced Study

Our Sacred Pathfinder

Astrology is such a profound tool for self-discovery. Its language is complex, and its history is deep. Your natal chart holds your life story. By studying astrology, we initiate ourselves onto the path of finding our true self, our deep soul, our fated purpose.

Astrology is also a wildly complicated system, created thousands of years ago, and full of difficult jargon. How do we approach learning the pieces of the natal without losing our heads? And after we’re done memorizing sign, house, and planet definition, how do we weave all that information together?

Let’s explore the natal chart together.

The Divine Art of Astrology is a 10 week astrology immersion, designed to teach you to read your chart through the lens of myth and archetype, to enchant, enrich, and empower your astrology practice.

This course is perfect for advanced beginners to intermediate students—those who understand the basics of astrology, but are looking for guidance on how to synthesize the chart with confidence and creativity.

Both aspiring professional astrologers and those who study astrology for personal development are welcome in this course!

Who Is This Course For?

If You…

  • Are a student of astrology and proficient in the basic meanings of the planets, signs, houses, but yearn for deeper historical context, richer poetic images about the details of the chart, and a way to add color to your chart interpretations, or…

  • If you’re ready to move on from cookbook astrological interpretations, and embrace the search for the soul of the chart, or…

  • Are familiar with the pieces of the astrological puzzle, but need a learning environment in which everything is brought together and clarified, with depth, or…

  • Are an aspiring professional astrologer OR seriously committed to self-study for personal empowerment…

Then this class is for you.

What Makes This Course Unique?

We live in a golden age of astrology courses. The Divine Art of Astrology distinguishes itself in two ways:

Enriched Foundations

The Divine Art of Astrology will teach you to see the components of the chart with depth and nuance. No more cookbook astrology—here our chart interpretations become enchanted, as you’ll learn how to seamlessly combine house, sign, and planet.

You will feel deeply rooted into the history of astrology, and find new, exciting ways of seeing the building blocks of the natal chart. This perspective is achieved through…

Cultivating Mythic Vision

A core concept we’ll learn about in this class is the idea of sympathetic magic, or what can be seen as the kinship between all things. “As above, so below” will take on new meaning as you learn to recognize facets of your own psyche in your natal chart and transits.

Through the use of art and archetypal perspectives, along with elements of astrological ritual, your entire approach to the chart interpretation will come to life.

Course Curriculum

Each week we will meet for a live class, each class will be approximately 75 minutes. Class is recorded for those who cannot join live and shared immediately after class adjourns.

We will meet for four supplemental classroom Q/A sessions throughout the course, for additional support.

Student Testimonials

  • Cristina is an incredibly insightful astrologer and wonderful teacher. She is thorough, knowledgable, engaging, and creative in her lectures, and always took time to answer my questions thoughtfully. Her approach to astrology resonated with me deeply, and I feel that my practice grew exponentially through her teachings on technique, interpretation, and poeticism.

    Katrin Ree

  • The Divine Art of Astrology was such an incredible class! 💕 It has truly expanded my heart and mind. Chart interpretation is becoming more and more natural for me and the asteroid class totally changed my view on how the universe works. 

    Mallory Fyfe

  • Cristina’s wise teachings are so rich with beauty and the mytho-poetic, but are also well researched and so obviously thought out with great care and consideration. I came away from each class excited about what I had learned and inspired to go deeper with the parts of the class that really caught my attention. I loved the practical offerings that wove in my natal chart with the teachings, making them embodied and personal, and enriching to my own astrological practice. Thank you for weaving such a beautifully layered tapestry of astro poetry and knowledge!

    Rebecca Holly

  • My only disappointment is that the Cristina’s myth class didn’t continue for months. Her scholarly approach, deep research and story telling was a balm during a conflicted time for me. I think about the class still mulling over details of different myths and how they impact my life experience. I think that is what is most important and the biggest takeaway from class. I found that the myths influence and impact my life as do the planets and having that understanding makes life magical and more embodied for me. The story of the myths come alive daily as I confront different experiences and look at my chart teasing out the story of myself and my family. I am so happy and grateful I attended Cristina’s myth class it was wonderful! 

    Susan Carr

  • The Divine Art of Astrology : How Divine it was... Empowering is the word coming to mind. This course is engaging, thought-provoking and of course incredibly informative. Cristina holds such a beautiful place of learning. It felt like a very safe space where community was created. Learning the history, mythology, mystery and techniques of chart interpretation felt fulfilling. Everything about this course, down to the length of the classes, extra material and space held for us was, in my opinion, perfect. I felt it was an incredibly well-rounded course and I feel much more confident now. I'm so glad I decided to take this course! If you are wondering if it's best for you, it is!

I’ll be your teacher :)

Hi! For those who don’t yet know me, I’m Cristina, the astrologer behind Eighth House Astrology and the instructor for this course. I’m so glad you’re here with me.

Over the years of my journey as a student and practitioner of astrology, I’ve been led by my own fascination with the magic of the cosmos as much as my love of myth, poetry, and painting, in my quest for self-knowledge.

To me, astrology is so powerful because it reveals the innate connections, between the seeable and the unseen. Astrology acts as an affirmation of something true, supportive, ever-present, and magical, and in a world rife with conflict, abandonment, and pain, this to me is very comforting.

I hold an M.A. Western Intellectual Traditions (focused on Greek drama and mythic texts) and have been in astrological consultation and teaching practice since 2016.

I’m here to lead you in a class that will transform your astrological perception, make you a more confident reader of astrology charts, and empower you to infuse your practice with your own creative consciousness.
