You were destined to attain great spiritual insight and skill. 

Step onto your journey as a master of astrology, magic, and ritual:

* UNLOCK the wisdom of your natal chart

* TRANSMUTE your life’s wounds into wisdom

* HARNESS your innate magical power

IT'S TIME TO ALIGN WITH YOUR STARS

You want to become a skilled diviner…a powerful mage…an intuitive healer… 

But you’re stuck. 

You’re not sure where to go, or what steps to take. Maybe you’ve plateaued, maybe you’re desperately seeking a guide. 

Instead of enthusiasm, joy, and progress on your path, perhaps you’re feeling: confused about your soul purpose, powerless to change your life, haunted by unresolved wounds in the past, disconnected from meaningful spiritual community. 

When you should be feeling:

  • Clear about your purpose and spiritual gifts
  • Empowered to change your life
  • Fulfilled by spiritual practices that work
  • Enlightened through past struggles
  • Supported by meaningful community

All the answers for your path are found within your natal chart – an ancient failsafe against spiritual confusion.

Your natal chart contains your entire life story:

Your purpose, your innate gifts, your wounds, your future. It shows you what your spiritual talents are and how to embody them to the fullest. 

But sadly, authentic astrological teachings rooted in ancient lineage are becoming harder and harder to find. 

Maybe you tried to understand your natal chart before…to no avail. Maybe you “know” the symbolism of astrology like the back of your hand, but you still can't reach the level of mastery you so desperately want.

You want to know how to use astrology to predict your future accurately and precisely…but you can’t find the right methods. 

And even if you feel like you can understand the chart, no one tells you how to do anything tangible with the information you receive…how to heal through your chart. 

Fortunately, you’ve found the key to unlock your natal chart and gain the clarity, wisdom, and skill that you’re searching for.

You’ve found the way to use predictive astrology alongside ancient magical teachings that turn your natal chart into a powerful tool for transformation…

…the way to integrate astrology with other magical practices to turn your life into one of success, power, and prosperity...

…the way to become the powerful wielder of magic you were born to be.

What previous students say about Merlin

Merlin is to the point in his development as a counselor/spiritual teacher that he affects your energetic bodies positively just by being in his presence. The more I work with him, the more it seems that the sky is the limit for healing as well as life possibilities that seemed completely unreachable before. It is truly miraculous.

Rose T

Merlin’s a rock star. Gnosis is amazing and one of the best courses I’ve ever taken, by far. It’s pulled together multiple esoteric teachings and practices into a coherent whole, with humour, depth, and a heartfelt approach that Merlin embodies. It’s comprehensive without being nitpicky and based from Merlin’s practical and tested experiences in real life. He took the time to answer every student question with patience. It’s the kind of holy-grail course that you can keep dipping in to over time, which makes it insanely good value.

Jill K

Merlin, I am absolutely blown away by the incredible amount of knowledge that you hold. I am thankful that you are doing all of the work that you do. I am so grateful for the Gnosis group. The lessons that I have learned cannot be valued by dollars. Gnosis initiated me into one of the oldest spiritual practices that exists -- the ancient study of Hellenistic astrology; and for that I am forever grateful. I cannot wait for the next round to begin!

Marissa M

Working with Merlin is like having a direct line to the Ancients themselves. His extensive knowledge of the classical texts made me feel like I was studying the mysteries in an Elysian temple. I felt like I was studying under Plato himself. I knew I was in really good hands.

ALLOW US TO INTRODUCE YOUR GUIDE

Meet Matthew "Merlin" Kenney in his words...

I’m a practicing predictive astrologer and ritual magician. My passion is practicing and teaching horoscopic astrology, ritual magic, and spiritual practice.

In my undergrad I studied classical philosophy and linguistics, and I also read Ancient Greek, Latin, and Sanskrit, and utilize the insights that ancient authors provided in my practice I’ve given lectures at Kepler College, The Academy of Oracle Arts, and Nightlight Astrology. 

When I began seeking out ancient teachings of astrology and magic, I spent years groping in the dark, unable to go beyond beginner-level ritual magic and astrological knowledge.

I also found that many astrologers don't know how to do anything practical with the natal chart. The practical elements of astrology – remediation, ritual magic – that bring real transformation aren’t employed. People could diagnose with a chart, but they couldn’t heal. 

 

So I decided to do things differently - to reintegrate the practices of magic and astrology in order to make it a powerful tool for transformation and healing. 

To start, I went directly to the predictive astrology of the ancients. I studied the greatest texts in astrology and astrological magic. I integrated practical elements into my astrological practice that transformed the lives of my clients.

 I incorporated the astrological wisdom with the magical traditions of the east. I began practicing internal alchemy, meditation, internal martial arts, and more. I became an initiate of the Daoist Dragon Gate Sect. I started strengthening magical faculties like astral projection, seeing spirits, and other staple skills of the mage.

 And I started practicing astrological ritual magic as the ancients practiced it, and it works! Alongside the help of our spirit allies, I've been able to manifest a sustainable 6-figure income, 12.5 acres of mature oak forest & healing mineral springs, a blissful, adventure-filled marriage, and more!

I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt that if you begin studying and practicing magic and astrology this way...

 ...if you integrate the teachings and wisdom of the ancients, empowering your magical energy and connecting with the deities of the heavens...

 ....you'll see the same transformation in your own life too.

What Students Loved about the Teaching

"The spiritual and intellectual value of this course is exceptional and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in the subject. My favorite part of Gnosis were the Tuesday practice sessions in which Merlin walked us through a few different charts of famous people. It really helped to see the material broken down and the concepts slowly explained in a mock reading."
M. A.
 
"Not only is all the information very important and useful, the techniques that are combined with the astrology adds a depth of experience that most courses don’t even begin to reach."
Amy S

 

"I have been trying to casually learn/read about astrology but was hella confused more than anything because of TOO MUCH info and conflicting views. I took your course in hopes of more clarity and most importantly, spiritual wisdom on astrology. You explained such a vast topic in a simple and beautiful way - it resonated with me. I have learned SO MUCH, Gnosis took me from 0-100 real quick!" 
Mia Y

 

"Favorite part was the epic 30 plus paged reports!! Second was the Q and A's and just listening to moreeeeeeeee. And thirdly developing and adding more meditative practices to my bag of tricks, lord knows I need."
