I am an astrologer who, although having a psychological/spiritual framework, believes in the concrete, nuts-and-bolts use of this information. Astrology is a fascinating intellectual study all by itself, but the miracle of astrology is evidenced elegantly in its application to our personal lives. Astrology is a symbolic language. The birth chart, cast for the moment of birth, illustrates what comes easily and where we get stuck. Often we don’t move past our stuck places - not because we don’t want to - but because we don’t know how. This symbolic map provides a view of the many available roads that lead to successful outcomes.

A variety of services are available all of which can be found on my website along with the fees.

I do much of my consulting by phone and often work outside of my own time zone. I am flexible in working out times that are convenient.
