Astro school is back in session!

I’ve carefully designed this course with step-by-step guided videos and companion materials, allowing you to study at your own pace, whenever it suits you best! Then, starting January 8, 2025, I’ll lead a live, six-week study group where we’ll dive deeper into your questions, explore your birth charts, and personalize your learning experience. Each session offers two time slots—10 am and 5 pm (Pacific) on Wednesdays, beginning January 8, 2025. Each meeting will last about an hour. You’re welcome to choose the time that fits your schedule or join both sessions if you'd like!

Hi, my name is Shannon Aganza 💖

I’m delighted and honored to be your guide on these first steps of your cosmic education. Welcome to Astrology Foundations 1!

Imagine living in a world where every person is able to tap into the essence of who they are… where they’re able to dialogue with their Soul, accessing the timing of their Soul’s unfoldment with power, living a life of dynamic, vital connection with their surrounding environment and community… a life where self love and acceptance are easily found, unfolding into healthy relationships. 


I believe this is possible, through the practice of astrology. 


The personal astrological blueprint, known as the natal or birth chart, holds the keys to living this connected life. 


This Astrology Foundations 1 course begins your journey to understanding how to cultivate this in your own life — and how you can help guide others to find their inner wisdom, too. 


With access to this blueprint — this life’s plan at your fingertips — you can move moment to moment with the wisdom, grace, and strength inherent in your every cell…


What does that look like for you? We’ll be learning the language of astrology that includes… 

  • Elements & Modalities – Discover the natural building blocks that shape how we experience life.
  • Zodiac Signs – See how elements and modalities come together to shape the 12 zodiac signs.
  • Planets – Learn about the celestial “beings” acting out our life stories.
  • Houses – Explore how the 12 houses activate and literally “house” each area of life.
  • Aspects – Decode the conversations between planets, revealing patterns and connections.
  • Sect – Understand the significance of day vs. night births in shaping your astrological “tribe” and the significance of the Thema Mundi - what the ancients believed to be the chart of the world, or the chart of the cosmos.


It makes me giddy to invite you into this world where you will never be bored.

Are you ready to live a life of empowerment and purpose? Join me on this path to self discovery!
