Thousands of years ago, people first observed a correlation between the heavenly bodies and events on Earth. Out of these early observations and subsequent refinements came what today is known as astrology. For most of these millennia, astrologers used only the seven visible planets: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

Este Curso de Astrologia Tradicional surge como um complemento ao livro Tratado das Esferas - Um Guia Prático da Tradição Astrológica, pelo que deve ser usado em conjunto com este. Tem por objectivo expandir e aprofundar os conhecimentos apresentados no Tratado, desenvolvendo sobretudo a componente prática. Tal como o Tratado, este Curso de Astrologia Tradicional segue um modelo pedagógico inovador que visa optimizar a compreensão da linguagem astrológica e a capacidade de aplicação dos conceitos no devido contexto (evitando a habitual informação fragmentada, baseada na ineficiente memorização de palavras-chave e conceitos avulsos). No final deste Curso de Astrologia Tradicional o estudante terá a capacidade de interpretar qualquer mapa natal de uma forma estruturada, seguindo as regras da Astrologia Tradicional.
