I’m an “astrologer”. I don’t know why. It’s not all that I am but I wonder if I would still have this fascination about us and the planets if I’d never been given my chart, which I had to learn to read…
And so my studies began. After university I completed the Certificate and Diploma courses at the Faculty of Astrological Studies; really the only professional astrological school at that time. I also attended many workshops with Liz Greene at the Centre for Psychological Astrology and others with Micheal Gauquelin (a big inspiration) and Sue Thompkins. I was really interested in the research, what parts were more grounded in reality and what actually worked? People started paying me to do charts. I could see it worked but how? Not understanding everything held me back. I needed a different approach.
Around this same time a friend suggested I try Sahaja Yoga Meditation, and the way it changed my awareness changed how I approached everything. I gave up astrology completely then slowly began taking bits back. Somehow the hunger to understand how planets impact us hadn’t left me – was it really God’s clock after all? My guess is that the movements of planets must be like a pure language maybe like music where the sounds are pure but the instrument, and the musician, are in between. And while I’ve found it impossible so far to get the “astrology” out of astrology, I do try to understand the essence of things, and convey that as clearly as I can.
Charts show that people are like puzzles, with different pieces that fit together, some smoothly, some not. And a chart can help us recognize the roots of how we see the world. My approach is to try and explain what a chart seems to reveal about a person’s natural human temperament and how the planets may be interacting with that now. And sometimes it’s more about helping people confirm what they already know on some level. And ultimately what’s most important is what they “hear” and find meaningful, what is remembered and what is useful, rather than what I say.
