Welcome to the Faculty of Astrological Studies
Raising the Standard of Astrology since 1948
We at the Faculty are greatly saddened to hear of the passing, on the 6th July 2020, of our patron Baldur Ebertin. Baldur was the son of the great German astrologer Reinhold Ebertin, author of the The Combination of Stellar Influences, the Faculty’s set text for midpoints in Module 7, and the grandson of astrologer Elsbeth Ebertin, famous for predicting the rise of Adolf Hitler.
On behalf of the Council, our members and our students, we offer our deepest condolences to his family.
London Classes
Studying our programmes in Central London gives you the opportunity to meet like-minded people and enjoy the stimulation of learning within a group. With all of our modules available as weekend seminars, you don’t have to live in London to take advantage of live tuition. Modules for the Foundation Level and Diploma Levels run concurrently each year, making it easy to enrol in a suitable class to match your sequence of learning. Read more about London Classes.
Online Classes
Online Classes allow you to engage with your tutors and classmates in a real-time, virtual classroom. Enrolment is limited in these sessions, making it possible to interact, to ask questions, to make short presentations, and to support one another. You are truly involved in an active learning environment… from the comfort of your own home. Read more about Online Classes.
Distance Learning via Email
Through Distance Learning, you have the freedom to enjoy a flexible study schedule, no matter where you live. Corresponding with your tutor by email, you progress at your own pace. You have access to the Faculty’s high-quality articles to foster your skills in astrology. For each exercise you submit, your tutor sends you individual feedback which helps identify your strengths and offers you guidance for continued growth. Read more about Distance Learning via Email.
Oxford Summer School
One of the world’s best-known astrological events, our Summer School attracts students from across the world to the magical venue of Exeter College, Oxford. Summer School offers the chance to study a rich and wide curriculum and is open to everyone – whether you are newly curious about astrology, or if you have been a long-time student with the Faculty or any other school of astrology.

What our students say...
The Distance Learning option was a perfect solution for me. There could not have been a better way for me to learn astrology in a thorough and enjoyable way. I am grateful and proud to call myself a Diploma holder. 
I have thoroughly enjoyed attending the London classes and I cannot enough praise the tutors I have had. 
Being a student at the Faculty has been incredibly rewarding in so many ways. It has been a very life enriching experience as the teaching has given me sound principles, guidelines and techniques to help me find my own unique way. Read our student success stories.
Have you checked the expiry date of your module credits?
Remember that module credits expire after 6 years unless you validate them by passing the relevant exam at that level. In other words, if you have obtained all Foundation Course module credits, you will need to pass the Certificate Interpretation Exam within six years of completing Module Three in order to validate these credits. The same system of validation applies to the intermediate and advanced levels.
If you have questions about the validation of your credits please contact Lindsay Gladstone, Head of Exams, at exams@astrology.org.uk.
