Astrology

Just as our lives depend on the sun, for light and warmth, to nourish our food and our bodies, to structure our lives for work and rest, so too, must we consider the effect of each and every star and planet in our ‘solar’ system.  For instance, the body is made up of approximately 70% water.   The phases of the moon have a dramatic affect on the tides of enormous bodies of water.  Surely, there must be some effect on our physiology also? Indeed, the term lunacy is derived from the well-documented phenomenon of people’s behaviour being disturbed on or around the time of the full moon.Similarly, women’s cycles are closely linked to the moon’s orbit of 28 days. (Food for thought there,  hmm?!) Why then, should we not consider that all the celestial bodies exert some influence over our earthly lives, either physically, mentally or emotionally?

Astrological forecasting can be an inexact science unless the exact date, time and place of birth of any individual is known. Then a more accurate analysis can be offered. Just reading your horoscope in the daily/ weekly/ monthly columns is entertaining and occasionally illuminating but much too generalised in the main and thus many people reject astrology as little more than an amusing hobby.

I have been interested in Astrology since I was a child and started drawing and interpreting  charts, (by hand in those days!),  when I was still in my teens. I started with my own as I wished to understand how and why I do the things I do or did, to explore the inner workings of my psyche. My chart was a turning point in my self-enquiry as beyond my sun sign there lay layers upon layers of aspects to my personality I had not considered that explained numerous conundrums and answered many questions. (As well as providing a few more to analyse along the way!)

Nowadays I produce charts from a computer programme, but the depth of information that I can glean about an individual and the possible underlying causes to any issues or conditions which are unresolved can be extremely enlightening to both myself as a therapist and the client who wishes to heal on whichever level. As such then, I offer birth chart analysis as an additional extra to any treatment or course of treatments if requested.  Please enquire for further details!
