This is a new and exciting online course for children wishing to learn about some of the basic principles of Vedic Astrology, and timing. The primary aim of this course is to open their minds into a different way of perceiving the world, outside of structured learning.
By the end of this course, kids will develop a basic astrological understanding of planets, signs and houses, as well as the progression of time. They will also understand what astrologers can do, and how they can do it, and why it is so important. Children will also be able to make basic allegorical associations and be able to identify characteristics of what they’ve learned in others as well. There will be some fun creative assignments to solidify understanding, these are not compulsory, but will definitely enhance the experience. Parents are encouraged to assist and discuss these concepts with the course attendees. Each child should also be able to demonstrate a knowledge of their birth time upon completion of this course.
Who is This Course For?
The intended age audience for this course will be between 7-11 years old. An interest in planets, stars and the cosmos will be an asset. Also, there will be some fun and creative learning activities to solidify their understanding. The courses will be done online, for a 1 hour period (with a 5-10 minute break, held approximately at the half hour point). An ability to sit and hold attention for an hour is strongly recommended. Classes will be recorded for those who are unable to attend in person.

Julie graduated with honors from UNC- Chapel Hill with a degree in English and Science education and from Duke University with a Master’s in Theology. She is an interfaith minister, Reiki Master teacher, Ayurvedic Councilor, Astrologer, wife, and mother.
In her own words: As long as I can remember, I have had a wide range of interests and curiosities about a variety of subjects. In reflection now, this is mostly because I have a genuine interest in people and their stories. Sitting and listening to my Uncle Hoyle as a child talk about building a bicycle that could fly turned into eating with the homeless alongside a major highway in graduate school. I feel really grateful that others have shared their experiences and wisdom with me without reservation throughout my life.
My calling into ministry looked a little different than I or others imagined, but my path had hidden gems such as Ayurveda, Reiki, Yoga, and Jyotish. Growing up in a small rural town, I thought I had a new idea when I discovered these. I can say I truly became self-aware when I became a mother. I wanted to create a space for my daughter to bond with herself and the natural world. Needless to say, I had no idea how to do so. But I had the desire and I believed one step at a time, I would be guided. I can say, the divine has never failed me. I have found answers, healing, redirection, and resolution in all of my life’s trials and triumphs. I love watching my husband garden and make tinctures, I like sewing, and watching both of my daughters' create music and dance, and listening to the life stories of those willing to share. I think my purpose is simple but not without daily effort: Enjoy life and give to it. When the sun sets, and I can say that I have helped someone truly feel seen and able to take their next steps, then that is a really good work day for me: Julie Caroline
