Reasons to work with an astrologer
You probably know your sun sign and have read your horoscope repeatedly. You may even know what astrologers call your “Big Three” which consists of your sun sign, moon sign, and rising sign or ascendant. But have you ever wondered what working with an astrologer can do for you?
After all, we study the planets, their movements, and how the planetary transits might affect you depending on your unique natal chart. But how does this apply to everyday life? What are the various areas where astrology can help? Astrology is used for many things, but there are several areas of life where folks seek out personalized astrology readings on a on-going basis.
A deeper understanding of self
The first area is understanding who you are as a person and what you may seek to find in your life. We base this on your birth chart, or natal chart; it’s a record of the position of the planets at the time you were born, and an astrologer interprets this information and how you may be experiencing these energetic signatures in your life. Each of us is born with this cosmic blueprint, and astrology helps us better understand ourselves to find deeper meaning and live more fulfilling lives. It may be easy to dismiss this reason, but as we grow and mature throughout life, we have experiences that shape who we are, and sometimes it is easy to feel lost.
Working with an astrologer, especially during a significant life transit such as a Saturn return, may help you find your way again or offer guidance on how to best navigate. Many people turn to astrology when they're looking for guidance in their lives or a different way of looking at a situation. In conjunction with other healing modalities such as therapy, astrology can assist in providing language to describe difficult situations and help identify the steps to take in order to reach your goals and move forward in your life.
What you offer and need in a relationship
The second area is your one-to-one partnerships. This involves looking at the interactions of the planets between you and the other person and their response to the combined energetic signature of both of you. Your birth chart can tell you about the type of person you'll likely find attractive and how you communicate. An astrologer helps identify areas where you may find yourself activated in the relationship, how to approach those situations, and ideas for processing and integration. And this applies to all types of personal relationships, not just romantic ones.
Your career and public life
Studying your natal chart can show you which career fields would be most compatible with your innate talents and identify approaches to earning more money. For example, if you've been considering a career change but are still deciding which one to choose, astrology can help you determine which path will most align with all the facets of who you are.
Magical practice and manifest destiny
Astrologically, much information is available about the energies of the cosmos and how they interact with our natural rhythms and those around us. Using this information, we can discover many ways to use this energy to our advantage. By understanding and working with these energies, we can live more empowered lives by learning about our emotional and behavioral response in order to focus better on our goals and achieve a greater sense of peace and contentment within ourselves.
In summary, the goal of the astrological consultation is to help you see the gifts that are inherent in your experiences so you may appreciate and celebrate the wondrous journey of your life and the people you encounter along the way.
