Guest guest Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Hello All, Before sending what I am sure most would consider annoying SA questions, I would like to know what background experience I should have before asking 'stupid' questions? I am an inexperienced novice with David Hawthorne's book in hand. However, after my first read I do not think that I have retained much knowledge and realize that practical hands on experience is what I need. I know that the Professor posts when he is able, but is it acceptable to post information with a 'walk-through' example and get help/assistance from other members (I just do not want to annoy the list)? Please let me know what should be expected of a person just beginning and I will start there and I will ask for help and critiques along the way. Thanks, Duke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Hi Duke, Welcome to the listserv and the fascinating world of SA! It was only two years ago when I first started asking questions here and I was very supported in my efforts to understand this divine science of life from the Systems' Approach perspective. David's book is very good and it was how I was introduced to SA. I then purchased all of 's books and did charts on all my family friends. I then posed questions to the list and was helped by and learned members. I do not think there are " stupid " questions when posed from a sincere learner. I would recommend making an effort to first research the question before posing it. But of course, that is my Virgo ascendant style. Look forward to hearing from you in the future...

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Hello Duke, To understand the concepts one has to read the fundamentals repeatedly. You can ask questions wherever necessary and help comes forth on the list.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Dear Mr. Duke Amboy, Welcome on board. My initial foray into SA was also through Astrology for Life. It is a solid compendium of the basics of SA. For more advanced and updated learning and predictive techniques, I would recommend reading and studying 's set of books, and especially his recently revised edition of Predictive Techniques... Also, you may visit his website (www.yournetastrologer.com) and find the learning material uploaded there as well. As for questions, it is always better to ask than it is to feel lost. So please don't feel shy. In the beginning you will find most of the answers to your questions in 's books themselves and on the website. I would recommend reading them and re-reading them as much as possible. As you become a more advanced learner, there are some subtleties that may need more explaining. If you would like to ask a question and feel shy in doing so here, you may ask me directly. My e-mail address is arunrao9. If I am not able to answer, I will at least direct you to the appropriate link on 's website. Best of wishes in your learning, Arun Rao , " duke amboy " <dukeamboy wrote: > > Hello All, > > Before sending what I am sure most would consider annoying SA questions, I > would like to know what background experience I should have before asking > 'stupid' questions? > > I am an inexperienced novice with David Hawthorne's book in hand.
