The only way to make sure astrology can return to being a respected science is by educating society at all levels, from the serious student to the novice beginner. It has been an aspiration for me to teach astrology at a high, scholarly and practical level, based on the growing number of source texts becoming available in English translations.

I specialise in teaching beginner to intermediate-level astrology primarily based on, but not restricted to, techniques from the Hellenistic, Persian, Arabic and the later Medieval Latin periods. My teaching style is structured, combining a historical background, explanation of techniques and their sources, demonstrations of case examples and practical exercises to encourage students to consolidate the teachings. I strive to inspire and extend students towards their potential as astrologers, teachers, researchers or consultants.

Webinars / conferences are great ways to build community in astrology. Podcast interviews and deep dives are also lots of fun. Whether you’re seeking to grow your client base, build community or establish your profile, let me assist by delivering credible lectures for your project.

,Astrological education is a core passion of mine and I deeply feel the importance of sharing what I have learnt about ancient astrology to the next generation of students. Currently, I serve on the faculty at Kepler College – a leading international school dedicated to astrological education for the past 25 years – as a Tutor as well as the Coordinator & Developer of the new Medieval Astrology Certificate.

I am comfortable in teaching to a varied audience, from advanced astrologers to new enthusiasts. At Kepler College, I deliver intermediate courses on techniques including Solar Returns, Firdaria, Advanced Profections and Medieval Essentials, as well as the beginner Fundamentals Astrology course to students engaged in astrological studies for the first time.

Shu is a consulting astrologer, teacher, and writer based in Central Victoria, Australia, on Dja Dja Wurrung Country. Certified by the Melbourne School of Astrology and the School of Traditional Astrology in Horary and Traditional Medical Astrology, Shu operates an international consulting practice, lectures globally, teaches at Kepler College, mentors individual students, and writes monthly planetary news for The Interpsycle Observator. Shu is also a student of Jyotish under the lineage of Śrī Achyutānanda Dāsa of Orissa, India.

For Shu, astrology is not just a profession but a way of life, influencing her work as a grower, beekeeper, and regenerative farmer. Drawing inspiration from Hermetic philosophy, she practices traditional astrology with a sky-centered approach. Shu’s spiritual practice and cosmological perspectives are also deeply rooted in her Daoist cultural heritage.

“I just want to say, this was THE BEST astrology course I have taken. (and I have taken many!!) It altered the way I understand astrology in such a wonderful way because it was like learning a new language. Discovering traditional astrology, the whole house system, annual profections and time lords woke something up in me and it really simplified things, in a way.  I have never participated so willingly in live classes (I almost always wait for the recording) I watched every class at least twice plus the FB Live Q&A’s.  I took extensive notes and feel like I am energized to continue studying and learning.”

“I love Shu’s teaching style. She gave a lot & made everything very easy to understand and totally digestible.  She was very knowlegable, insightful, receptive, kind, relatable and organized. I also greatly appreciate her passion, clear communications, organizational skills and efficiency. It’s not always easy to feel connected to the presenters, let alone the other participants in a webinar, and there was a true sense of community in this experience which truly supported the learning. I really loved everything about it. The teachings expanded my mindand I am totally inspired to take what was learned and apply it in my practice.”

Shelley Bredeson

“Shu, was very knowledgeable and detailed in the techniques.  She made the complexity of the topics manageable, and I was surprised that I could apply all the techniques.  Loved the presentations and the generous and detailed information provided.  I learned a lot in this course.  It was a great investment and I’m looking forward to join other courses by Shu.”
