Ron Bippus is a professional Astrologer with 25 years experience. Ron has gained recognition for his expertise in Rectification along with his research on the physical and psychological characteristics of the Ascendant. Ron has also written a complete textbook on Horary Astrology, the "Horary Handbook", a modern translation of William Lilly's "Christian Astrology". Horary Astrology embodies the classical astrological wisdom going back 2,000 years rather than focusing on the modern psychological outlook. Classical astrology allows for the analysis of charts not connected to human beings or any other living creature. This makes it ideal for financial, business and political astrology. It is also very useful for analyzing event charts as well as mundane and weather charts. Ron's Horary course includes a thorough look at analyzing horary questions as well as how to elect time to ensure success for any desired event.

Together with Priscilla Costello and Cicely Flanagan, Paul helped to run FCA Toronto (a local affiliate of the national Fraternity for Canadian Astrologers) for almost a decade in the 1980’s as a volunteer. He was also the Managing Editor of the Fraternity News (the FCA’s national astrology journal) from 1982 to 1984.

At the FCA Vancouver conference in 1985, Paul was elected the national President of the FCA and served in that position for 2 years. His proudest accomplishment during that time was hosting Canada’s first bilingual conference in Montreal, Quebec with over 200 attendees.

In the 1980’s, Paul became seriously interested in using astrology to do career counseling. Through his company, Heron and Hawk Careers, he launched his first computer program in 1986, known as the “the Career Report”. The software is still used today by mail-order astrology services advertising in the Mountain Astrologer.

Paul continues to work as a professional astrologer and career counselor in Calgary, Alberta. He is offering CAAE Level I and Level II classes this fall in Calgary.

Recent testamonial:

"Paul's keen sensitivity to the human condition refined from a long history as a practical astrologer along with a broad body of his own research of history and current events make every class animated and engaging. His humorous depictions of astrological phenomenon (spoken in "conversational astrologese"), produce classes that are not only intensely informative but also side-splittingly entertaining."

Milada began the studies of Astrology self-taught, inspired by the work of some great European astrologers, especially Mile Dupor. Researching different metaphysical subjects, while studying Eastern mysticism, Vedic philosophy, Sanskrit and devotional music, she had also written poetry and published some of her poetry work and essays coincidentally shortly after discovering astrology as a powerful self-realization tool at age 16.

“Since I can remember, I have always intensively searched for answers, wondering about the meaning and purpose of life (natal Pluto rising). The study of astrology had given me a holistic and analytical approach and spiritual insight like no other discipline had. My curiosity about meaning of cycles of life and death, human suffering and lessons we were all born to master in this life, continually deepened.

Through my work I enjoy inspiring and motivating people to set goals for achieving their true passions and discovering their full potential revealed through the sky script of their birth chart. My hope is that through Astrology as a humanistic science every individual gains a great holistic understanding of our inter-connectedness with the entire macrocosms. And ultimately we are assisted by astrological tools in awakening of our inner guidance and intuition.”
