Sky Scholar
Immersive Experiential Education in Intuitive Astrology
You already know astrology. It’s in your bones.
Your ancestors lived by the sky and storied themselves by the stars.
Some built temples and sacred formations to revere and celebrate portentous celestial alignments.
They experienced themselves as intimately woven with the land and her changes, as directed by an eternal cyclic cosmic dance.
Somewhere on the timeline, we all had ancestors that understood the world as living, breathing, conscious, reflective, and ever-evolving. Everything ensouled.
This knowledge still lives within us.
The heavenly lights are guides. Their movements map nature. Being that we are nature, their wanderings make our ways.
Look upward to look inward.
The sky is a looking glass. It shows us more of ourselves. Sky-gazing is a form of scrying, or divination.
Intuitive Astrology is a method to know thyself, and to (re)discover life itself.
In Sky Scholar, we gather together to remember innate and everlasting wisdom. We reweave myths that move us past separation. We access clarity, expansion, and synthesis.
Practice the wonder of wayfinding.

This craft is far from ungrounded. On the contrary, astrology is deeply embodied. It maps the mathematical relationships of human bodies on Earth body with extraterrestrial bodies. It locates us as spiritual beings in time and space.
For some, truly being alive on Earth means fascination with the sky and all the magic life is comprised of.
Through observing these sky designs comprised of elegant geometries, we study divine cycles of time and development, gathering clues to our own unfurling.
The cosmic is the cellular.
We are all astrologers. It’s in our bones. The planets and stars are our ancestors. Heavenly wisdom is woven through us.
None of this is farfetched. It is our nature. It’s who we are. Who we have been for eons.
This course is an invitation to tap in. To uncover and re-member ourselves. To re-awaken the celestial script that lives within us.
Come. Embark on this immersive experiential learning journey.
Sky Scholar is a totally unique in-depth astrology fundamentals program.
Beyond just a course, it is a multi-angled initiation in which you will become proficient in the basics of reading charts for yourself and others.

Meet Virginia
Virginia Rosenberg is a world-renowned intuitive astrologer for cultural change. Since 2010, she has offered thousands of readings for clients across the globe. She teaches astrology, qi gong, and embodied movement. Her viral writings on astrology, spirituality, and what it is to be human are used as teaching tools and reference guides in meditation and study groups internationally.
Virginia is a mother, a linguist, a dirt-worshipper, and a weaver of community. She resides in her heart home; the Appalachian mountains of Western North Carolina. These are occupied lands formerly stewarded by Tsalaguwetiyi (Eastern Band of Cherokee) and S’atsoyaha (Yuchi) peoples. Virginia is descended from Hungarian-Romanian (Transylvanian) Ashkenazi Jews and German, British, and French settler colonists.
Virginia’s practice of astrology is influenced by her background in post-colonial studies, women’s and gender studies, cultural anthropology, journalism, documentary filmmaking, Taoist philosophy and internal martial arts, myriad forms of dance, ritual, energy work, and comedy/performance.
Why Study with Virginia?
There are so many astrology books and courses these days. We can each endeavor to learn in whatever way suits us. Astrology is a language. Complex and refined. How do you best learn a language?
If you are compelled to learn astrology, it greatly helps to have a mentor and a community of other language-learners to practice speaking with. If you are committed to learning astrology, this course will be supportive. If you are just dabbling, I would not recommend registering for Sky Scholar.
We are communal creatures. Our nervous systems are wired to co-regulate. The collaborative field amplifies our venture. The genius of so many minds and hearts trained upon the subject enriches the content we traverse. There are meanings to this craft that cannot be found on paper. They reside within the living book, contained in each of us. As such, this course can never be replicated.
This course offers the unique opportunity to walk with me, Virginia, an Intuitive Astrologer by profession since 2010. I started out as an apprentice to an inner alchemist who first taught me how to “feel” a chart.
I am here to offer you guidance and training that springs from my unique path. I do not ascribe to hierarchy. I do not proclaim to know the ‘right’ kind of astrology. I am not here to convince anyone of anything. I’ve simply walked this path, devoted myself to it, and traversed through its twists many times, in many ways. It’s like body memory - I can show you the lay of the land. Whatever questions you may have, I am here to help answers arise. And when answers don’t arise, we can stay in the query together, in community.
The next cohort of Sky Scholar begins in September 2022.
Are you meant to be a part of it?
You will know it if you feel it.
Together, we cultivate a community that values:
- Collaborative learning. Everyone brings something valuable to the table.
- Authenticity. The freedom to be and express yourself.
- Self-responsibility, self-care, and self-respect.
- Regard for others and the diversity of belief and experience.
- Curiosity. Supposing the conflict is often rooted in misunderstanding.
- Tending to personal limits, needs, and boundaries.
- Fostering space for growth.
- Reverence for mystery and unknowns.
We are creative, compassionate, courageous souls practicing connection from a place of integrity, inquiry, and interbeing.
We participate in and engage with this experience, rather than consuming it.
We pursue the learning and growth that we desire.
We co-create this round of Sky Scholar with a whole-hearted yes!
