Welcome to FireSeed Astrology!
I offer a variety of astrological consultations birth chart analyses, forecasting, synastry and locational. I also offer custom consultations if you have something you would like to explore outside these specific areas.
My Astrological Philosophy
I believe that astrology is a powerful symbolic language that should be respected and used as positively as possible to assist you in as many areas of life as possible. My personal interpretation of the word "responsible" is "having the ability to respond" and I have found astrology sheds light on the processes of developing these abilities over our lifetime. As your astrologer I see myself as responsible for developing my craft and calling so that my ability to respond deepens throughout the remaining spiral of time I have the honour of describing myself as such.
I believe in the sovereignty of souls and understand that it is not actually helpful to fall into the trap of thinking we can do the soul work of another person. I will strive to be a compassionate companion offering as much honest authentic guidance and assistance as I can without crossing the line into telling you who you are , who you should be or what you should do.
My Style and Qualifications
I have been studying astrology for nearly 50 years since I first calculated charts for family and friends. At that time I sought to amass as many astrology books as I could thinking that if I could just memorize all the "cookbook" recipes at the back, I would be a great astrologer! I progressed to giving readings in my twenties and then shifted to prioritize family and other business ventures while always retaining my fascination for and love of astrology. Looking back, it seems as if my original approach was like drawing stick figures compared to the rich, artistic, textured and multifaceted lense through which I now experience astrology. Over the years I have learned from so many sources that they are impossible to detail here.
My most recent studies (in the last four years) include:
The London School of Astrology with Frank Clifford, Richard Swatton, Kim Fawley, Brian Clark, Kira Sutherland, Marc Laurenson , John Wadsworth, Mark Jones and Faye Blake,
Archetypal Astrology with Alexander Von Schlieffen at the JungPlatform,
Astrological Counselling with Mark Jones' Pluto School of astrology, and
Courses with AstroButterfly, Astrology University and many more.
I will never stop studying and learning about astrology
Outside the astrological focus, (as if there is really such a possibility!), I have had an eclectic life with many interests and passions. From the narrow lense of formal education I have a BSc in Physics and education in accounting/auditing which came in handy as I have been a self employed business owner for the last 34 years. I have lived in the UK, France, USA and Canada (Moon conjunct Uranus) and am married with three children who I homeschooled (Cancer MC)
