Welcome to the FCEA Course Catalog
You'll find program dates and prices so that you can plan your education
Before registering, please read these notes:
- To enroll in our coursework, you will have to register an account and log in.
- All FCEA courses can be purchased individually and in packages.
- Guided course dates are highlighted in blue.
- Required textbooks are not included in the course prices.
- Course prices vary based on factors including: the duration of each course, the amount of class discussion, and the number of assignments requiring in-depth review by teachers and tutors.
- If you already have a foundational understanding of Evolutionary Astrology: OR if you have studied with Steven before OR, if you wish for more practice learning nodal analysis, you can take the FCEA-100 Evolutionary Transition Program (details in 100 Level Apprentice Course Packages below).
- Note to current students: If you have purchased a 100, 200 or 300 Level package, you do not have to register individually for each course. You will be automatically enrolled upon successful completion of the prerequisite course. If you have any questions about your registration status, contact the Registrar.
- Once you are an enrolled student: You will receive an exclusive invitation to the monthly live Student Q&A Call with Steven via Zoom, with an opportunity to submit a question and a chart, which may be randomly selected for a reading by Steven during the call.
- Package discounts: Students receive an approximate 10% discount over the individual course prices. The package purchase also ensures students are able to enroll in a complete degree program.
- The three package formats are: Guided, Self-Paced, and Transition. Guided is a tutor-led program with a mixture of video and live discussion. Self-Paced offers video only where you can move at your own pace without any live tutor interaction. Transition offers a mixture of Self-Paced and Guided courses, with a Self-Paced 101 and then our tutor-led Guided version of 102 (which is 102B) for nodal analysis. Transition is ideal for students who might already have an astrology background, but who would benefit from learning or reviewing the Steven Forrest approach to Evolutionary Astrology via a tutor-led program.
- Guided courses include: Two live Zoom calls (course orientation call and mid-course student Q&A call), weekly engagement with Forrest-trained tutors in our interactive lab class discussion forums, and additional exercises using course material.
- The FCEA 103 Chart Reading Practicum is required for the Apprentice Degree or to take courses at the Craftsperson Level. For course packages purchased without this Practicum, students will have priority for the next future offering.
Refund Policy
- Full Refund: We offer a full refund for any course within 24 hours of purchase or until access has been granted to the course materials.
- Partial Refund: If you sign up for a program, you can receive a partial refund for any portion of the program to which you have not been given access.
- No Refund: Once you have been given access to a course, no refund is available.
Subject to Change
- Course offerings, dates and prices are subject to change at any time.
Apprentice
100 Level Apprentice Courses
Welcome, Future Apprentices! Our course list below explains the format and objectives of this program, which offers a path to mastery of Evolutionary Astrology fundamentals in the Steven Forrest Method, including his revolutionary approach to nodal analysis.
- To attain the Apprentice Degree, passing the full 100 series of: 101, 102 and 103 [OR] 101B, 102B and 103 is required. Here courses are presented individually first, then see 100 LEVEL APPRENTICE PACKAGES for package pricing discounts.
- It is also possible to earn the degree under a combination of the various Self-Paced and Guided 101 and 102 courses — e.g., 101, 102 and 103 [OR] 101, 102B and 103, as long as you have passed all three courses at this level
FCEA-101: THE INNER SKY: INTRODUCTION TO EVOLUTIONARY ASTROLOGY
Students learn how to master the basics of evolutionary astrology in the Forrest Method. You will learn the core language and key concepts as described in the required course textbook, The Inner Sky. It will contain a mixture of brief videos and narrative teaching components, as well as tests to gauge your familiarity with and/or grasp of the material covered. You will learn the concepts of planets, signs, houses and aspects. The course will expose you to the symbols used to represent these concepts and how to interpret them in the context of a person’s birthchart. As your proficiency increases, you’ll assemble these into sentences, paragraphs and ultimately a story about the individual whose chart you are interpreting. The focus in FCEA 101 is developing a fundamental understanding of a person’s psychological nature as reflected in the birthchart.
Duration: 9 weeks
Required Textbook: The Inner Sky.
Supplemental Textbooks: The Book of Fire, The Book of Earth, The Book of Air, The Book of Water.
All books by Steven Forrest, available through Seven Paws Press.

FCEA-102: YESTERDAY’S SKY: THE LUNAR NODES, ASTROLOGY & REINCARNATION
Students learn detailed methods of nodal analysis using the Steven Forrest Method. To enroll, you MUST have completed one of the FCEA-101 courses. It will teach the techniques for detecting the fingerprints of unresolved issues from prior lifetimes, as presented in the birthchart. This is “the chart behind the chart.” You will learn how to decode it, and determine the remedy for the dilemmas it represents. This is the heart of evolutionary astrology. “Understand the Chart Behind the Chart” In FCEA 101, you learned how to understand a person’s psychological makeup. Here you will learn to see why he or she is that way today, facing challenges and possibilities. As these two perspectives come together, we encounter the full analytical power of this system of human understanding. You will learn nodal analysis, the Steven Forrest Method, the fundamental methods and techniques needed to add an evolutionary astrological perspective, through the Moon’s north and south nodes. You will learn the basic astronomy used to determine the location of the lunar nodes. Then applying the techniques already learned, interpreting nodes by sign and house placement, refining this through their planetary rulers, and planetary aspects, you will create a nodal story. As your understanding deepens, you will develop concepts and practices to better reveal the wounds a person carries in this lifetime. You’ll be able to offer possible roads for addressing them. This is the heart of evolutionary astrological counseling. The course materials are organized into cohesive modules. Each module may contain reading assignments, videos, PDF handouts and self-directed exercises. The course will complete with the assignment of a final exam. Completion of the self-directed exercises and final exam is required for anyone seeking certification.
Duration: 7 weeks
Required Textbook: Yesterday’s Sky

Master
FCEA-401: Sacred Counsel
In this course, we come together as evolutionary astrologers to discuss “best practices” when working one-on-one with clients. How do we establish a good, respectful rapport with our clients and create a safe, nurturing environment for practicing our sacred craft? Steven focuses upon three good “cares” to have: caring for astrology, caring for your clients, and caring for yourself. In FCEA 401, Steven shares some of what he has learned over the years about these three faces of our healing work. Counseling astrology and psychotherapy naturally often overlap, but they are not the same. How can we find our own healing voice? Students meet weekly with an FCEA tutor on Zoom.
