British astrological school. The Faculty of Astrological Studies was established in 1948 largely at the instigation of Charles E. O. Carter, for many years head of the Astrological Lodge of the Theosophical Society (now the Astrological Lodge of London). The lodge sponsored the founding of the school, and Carter served as its first principal (1948-54). He was succeeded in that task by Margaret Hone (1954-69). Hone had earlier been commissioned to produce The Modern Textbook of Astrology (1951), a basic text for students. Most of the school's coursework is by correspondence.
