JOY OF ASTROLOGY

Astrology is not a profession for anybody’s who anti-social. The minute the word gets out what I do for a living, passionate discussions about the latest gossip, where to go and what to do are dropped instantly and I’m besieged with questions. Not long ago those questions focused entirely on the individual themselves – tell me about ME! But over the past ten years the nature has shifted, and now there are three or four most asked questions, and they’re all getting more philosophical by the day. I think that’s because many people are aware they’re shaping their future and seek astrological or intuitive guidance to clarify their instincts. The burning question is about destiny. If certain things can be predicted, then where’s the line between free will – me making my own decisions and taking responsibility for my own life – and events that are beyond my control? The astrological answer is, the line’s unclear, but shifts according to whether they planetary cycle is a challenging or easy, more flowing, one and whether in individual in question is knowledgeable and confident about what they’re doing, or unsure enough they’re vulnerable. It’s said that knowledge is power. Astrology is just passion of life.
Having a passion for something that makes you get up in the morning. It can be an activity, something as vast as nature, as specific as your own garden or, perhaps, music or cooking. But it must be yours, not dependent on another person – although passions of that variety are to be encouraged as well. If you haven’t yet encountered your passion, then what an exciting journey you’re on! The planets and the stars can guide you to it, but it’s you who must take the first step. For some, the journey itself turns into a passion. When that happens, whether the planets are behaving themselves or not, every day is a joy.
