Lesson 6 Put it all together with Intuition

When an astrologer translates the information in an astrology chart, he is
interpreting the abundant symbolism of the planets, the signs they are in, the house they
are in, and the angles between them.

The combination of all of the information above gives an astrologer an immense

amount of data that he must interpret using both his intellect and his intuition. There is
definitely a ton of information to decipher, but with enough desire and practice, anyone
can do it.

If you need help developing your intuition, find something that works for you. One
of the ways to develop your intuition easily and quickly is to use a really ancient skill, but
in a modern way. You might be surprised if I said it was dowsing, but if you read about the
Complete Dowsing Course at http://www.all-about-dowsing.com/dowsing-course.html, I
think you'll understand why it could be helpful. Maggie and Nigel, the authors, are
professional dowsers with years of experience, teaching and using it. If you really want to
tap into that intuition, this is really a great way to do it.

How do you plan on developing your intuition?
