JYOTISHA LEVEL 3
2nd Year Studies
(Hybrid of recorded classes and Live Meetings for Q&A and Review)
27 Sessions
- Jan 18 - May 24, 2023
- 18 PRE-RECORDED Lectures– 2+ hours each - drip fed every week - starting Jan 18th.
- + 9 LIVE Q&A classes - 60-90min. Every other Wed at 4pm PT - first live class Feb 1st.
- 18 + 9 = 27 sessions in total
- ALL LIVE SESSIONS RECORDED AND AVAILABLE 24/7 as well.
How this works:
- You receive weekly lectures just as before, but prerecorded, on Wed's, starting on Jan 18th.
- Every other week we have a live meeting for 60 to 90 min for Q&A and review.
- This means you get all the same teaching material and the benefit of previous students Q&A extra time after class, AND you get to participate in live meetings for Q&A to get your questions answered every other week.
-
My hope is that we can work together to make a great learning experience, and simultaneously create more space to develop and teach other courses that so many of you have requested.
Level Three is for advanced study. Prerequisite: You have been a student of mine, taken Level 1-2, or private studies, or you are a former student of Hart de Fouw.

What You Need For Class
Brihat Parashara Hora
It is highly recommended that you buy a copy of Bṛhat Pārāśara Horā Śāstra (BPH). Shown is the Sagar edition, but others are available. All are fine, but I will be listing references from this edition for simplicity sake.
Phaladeepika
Definitely but this book! Other editions are out there, most are the same. Excellent shastra and much to learn here.
