Tips for Becoming a Better Astrologer (TAP #56 audio + slides re-release)

This is a re-release of episode 56 of The Astrology Podcast, titled Tips for Becoming a Better Astrologer, by Chris Brennan.

This is mainly a recording of a lecture that I gave titled Tips for Learning Astrology and Becoming a Better Astrologer for the Denver Astrology Group on November 14, 2015 at the Mercury Cafe.

In the talk I present some general tips for how to study astrology effectively, what to study, and how to become a better or more well-rounded astrologer in several different areas.

The lecture was originally titled Tips for Learning Astrology and Becoming a Better Astrologer, because I was trying to present something that would be appealing to both beginner and advanced astrologers, but in reality only the first bit of the talk is really geared towards completely new students of astrology, while the majority of the rest of it is more applicable to those who are already a bit more advanced in their studies. That is why at this point I’m just giving the talk the title Tips for Becoming a Better Astrologer.

The audio quality is not great because it was recorded on a voice recorder in the middle of a noisy cafe, but it has been cleaned up a little bit, and should be listenable.
