Jump in at the deep end, get confused & overwhelmed. Get out then start at the shallow end with the beginners.

If I started at the beginning from the beginning I'd feel like I was behind, or the pace was too slow.

Go for sign positions i.e Sun/Moon/Mercury/Venus and Mars

Tie certain similar aspects and placements together i.e

When you meet someone and notice how guarded they are about giving away personal information ask yourself "Am I dealing with a Sun/Moon/Asc/Mars in Scorpio? Is the Sun/Moon/Mars in the 8th house? Are there Pluto aspects to the Sun/Moon/Asc or Mars?

Also look at musicians and try to see what aspects in their chart they are trying to communicate.Find similarities in physical looks and personalities and see if there are natal positions that may explain the similarities.

Usually astrology works with hunches- follow that up but also be open to contradictions -as people are not cardboard cutouts and are really very versatile and complex.

I started with Sun/Moon positions and when I couldn't find enough information there on the person, i went on to Mars,Venus and Mercury.And then further still until eventually aspects.

Learning this stuff is an exciting journey of many "aha" moments really
