Intuitive Astrology

The practice of astrology reminds us that we are part of a huge and infinite whole, channelling universal energies into the material world as we live our lives on earth. We have a tendency to forget this, believing ourselves to be independent beings, often living life in isolation from any notion of a bigger picture. The practice of astrology reminds us who we really are and where we fit in. Within this reminder we see the infinite possibilities in the universe and can begin to recognise the lack of largesse within our own existence.            

         Astrology teaches us that we are not passive subjects for whom life unfolds without our intervention. We are, in fact, agents within the universe, with our own unique part to play and our own unique lessons to learn. As we begin to open up to the possibilities of a life that encompasses universal energies flowing through us, we must also open up to the responsibility this places in our hands: responsibility to act with integrity, to uncover our own truths and to do the work required to develop our inner life and reflect that development in the outer world. As this process takes place, a question such as ‘When will I meet my soul mate’, becomes ‘How do I manage and relate to intimacy in my life?’. ‘When will I get my dream job?’ changes to ‘What is my life purpose and how do I fulfil it?’. Thus astrology reveals its true purpose: to provide a means by which we can come to know our essential selves, beneath all the layers that we build, one upon another, from the moment of our birth. Within the birth-chart we find the most exquisite and poetic representation of ourselves, a map of our consciousness. Astrology shows us our strengths and weaknesses, imbalances and potential. Most importantly, it shows us how we can each address the challenges that come to us in life, using them for personal and spiritual development. Thus we can release the energies that reside within us in a constructive and positive way, rather than using them to sustain and solidify the personal ego, which  invariably grows at great cost to our spirit.

           In Intuitive Astrology the chart acts as a compass or spiritual road-map, providing a route to inner knowing and self-awareness. It points directly to the potential unity within the individual, whilst simultaneously mapping out the inner-conflicts and challenges that guard against the manifestation of this unity. It addresses issues of motivation, conflicts, blind-spots, strengths and weaknesses. It shows us the energies present for us and how they can best be expressed. It can help distil the highest truth at this moment, and identify which actions and behaviours on our part have hindered the expression of that truth in our lives. The answers may not be straightforward, nor without contradictions themselves, but answers can be found. We all experience patterns and cycles in our lives, recurring issues that we fail to resolve and scenarios that, to all intents and purposes, appear to come at us from without, but which, invariably, find their seeds within us, somewhere. When we use Intuitive Astrology to engage consciously with these matters it brings us insight and deeper understanding, enabling us to live our lives with more authenticity and clarity.
