Astrology is so much more than reading a horoscope or scrolling through zodiac memes. Consulting an astrologer is a deeply personal experience that helps you understand your unique strengths, challenges, and opportunities for growth.
If you’ve ever wondered how an astrology consultation works—or why it’s worth investing in—here’s what you need to know.
Astrology Consultations: More Than Just Your Sun Sign
It’s easy to get swept up in popular astrology—knowing your Sun sign, reading daily horoscopes, or using apps to check your Moon sign. While these can offer surface-level insight, they barely scratch the surface of what a full astrology consultation can provide. An astrology consultation is about much more than identifying your Sun, Moon, and rising signs.
Your birth chart is a complex, layered blueprint of who you are—your potential, your challenges, and the way you move through life. Every planet, sign, and aspect in your chart represents a different facet of you. And when they connect? That’s where it gets really interesting.
As an astrologer, my work goes far beyond just naming your Sun, Moon, and rising signs. I synthesise the many layers of your chart to tell a cohesive, nuanced story that aligns with your lived experience.
During a consultation, I don’t just tell you what your chart says—I help you understand how those placements show up in your life, how they influence your patterns, and how they offer potential for personal growth. I work with you to interpret the chart as a living, breathing thing—not a static fate carved in stone.
While apps or horoscopes might tell you that your Moon is in Capricorn or your Mars is in Leo, they don’t explain how that actually plays out in your life. They won’t listen to your grief, celebrate your wins, or offer the deep, personal understanding that comes from working one-on-one with a human. That’s where I come in, holding space for your emotions, validating your journey, and empowering you with real, relatable insight.
Why Consult an Astrologer?
People seek out astrology for all sorts of reasons. Some want clarity during life transitions; others are looking for self-understanding or simply a sense of connection to something larger. Here are a few key reasons to book a consultation:
- Navigating life transitions: Whether you’re facing a career change, relationship dynamics, or personal growth challenges, astrology helps you understand where you are in life’s cycles and how to move forward with clarity.
- Understanding strengths and talents: Your birth chart holds clues to your natural gifts, qualities that you may not always recognise but are deeply part of who you are.
- Deepening self-awareness: Astrology therapy can reveal unconscious patterns and help you bring more awareness to how you move through the world.
- Spiritual guidance: Astrology connects you to a larger sense of meaning and purpose, aligning your personal path with the greater rhythms of the cosmos.
- Healing and self-acceptance: Astrology isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong.” It’s about seeing yourself in your entirety—with greater compassion and acceptance.
At its core, astrology helps us be with what is here, now. While astrology can provide insight into the future (and past!), it’s most powerful in helping you feel more present, free, and connected to your current experience. Instead of using astrology to brace for the future, it can offer a way to lovingly attend to the present.
The Best Time to Book an Astrology Consultation
People often ask, “When’s the best time to get an astrology reading?” The honest answer? Whenever the f* you want! The best time to book a consultation is when you feel like it.
That said, common times to book an astrology consultation include:
- During big life transitions (moving, career changes, relationship shifts)
- At the start of a new year or birthday to set intentions
- When feeling stuck or needing clarity on a recurring pattern
- During times of emotional upheaval or growth
- To explore questions about identity, purpose, or relationships
But really, the best time is when you feel curious. Dive in when you feel called, and there’s no wrong time to gain clarity and guidance.
What Happens in an Astrology Consultation
If you’ve never had a consultation before, it can feel a little intimidating. Here’s an overview to help you prepare for the experience:
- Comfort is Key: Astrology consultations are intimate experiences that require space for reflection and presence. Since I work virtually, all sessions are held over Zoom, so you can enjoy them from the comfort of your home. Whether you’re on the couch or at a desk, find a quiet spot where you feel relaxed. Bring your favourite drink for added comfort.
- Prepare Yourself: Astrology sessions work best when you’re fully present. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed with the wealth of information presented during a session, which is why I offer the option to record each one. This way, you can be fully engaged during the consultation and revisit the recording later.
- Tech Logistics: I use Zoom for all astrology consultations. Before the session, I’ll send you a link in your reminder email. You’ll also have the option to record the session, allowing you to return to the insights whenever needed. Pro tip: Wearing headphones can help you feel more grounded and reduce distractions.
- Reflect on Your Intentions: The more specific your questions, the deeper we can explore your birth chart chart. If you don’t have fully formed questions, think about the areas of life where you’d like insight—whether it’s relationships, career, or general curiosity. Your openness will shape the conversation.
At the start of the session, I invite you to share any topics of interest or questions you may have. This not only helps me understand the focus of our time together (which may differ from your intake form!), but also allows your chart to come alive in real-time—my favourite part of being an astrologer.
Based on what you share, we’ll explore your chart in depth. I interpret the planets as dynamic, evolving forces that shape your experiences, drawing connections between your stories, emotions, and bodily sensations. My aim is to help you feel more attuned to your inner world and how it mirrors the cosmos.
Think of the session as a dialogue (which is why I don’t use the term “astrology reading”). I explain the symbols, but it’s through your life stories that the chart truly comes alive. Together, we co-create meaning, with astrology acting as the bridge between your lived experience and the greater cosmic rhythms.
What My Astrology Style Is Like (and What It Isn’t)
I’m not the kind of astrologer who hands out textbook definitions of your chart—you can get those from any astrology app or book. Nor will I deliver a 60-minute monologue about your birth chart. I’ve been on the receiving end of those astrology consultations, and trust me, it’s not my style.
My work is about co-creating meaning with you. Together, we’ll explore how the planets show up in your life and how you can live more fully in tune with your birth chart. My role is to help you reconnect with the wisdom already within.
I don’t claim to be the expert on your birth chart—you are. You’re the one living and breathing it every day. I’m here to help you notice patterns or connections that might have gone unnoticed, and to guide you when things feel unclear or overwhelming.
My approach to astrology is unique because I blend traditional astrology with somatic practices and parts work. I don’t see the planets as external forces acting on us. Instead, I work with them as internal, archetypal energies—parts of ourselves that reflect our needs, emotions, and beliefs. You’re not at the mercy of the planets; you’re in conversation with them, engaging with them as allies. By working consciously with these energies, we can align more deeply with who we really are.
This somatic approach to astrology—some clients lovingly call it astrology therapy—isn’t standard, but it’s powerful. It helps you create meaningful change, offering not just technical astrology insights but real-life tools for personal growth that actually make a difference.
