An Exchange of Details

The details that an Astrologer will usually require from you are your name, date of birth, place of birth and time of birth. Your time of birth is important as a difference in minutes can change some of the important angles in your natal chart, so you may also be asked how accurate your time of birth is, including where you accessed the information. However, it’s usually fine if you are not 100% certain of the source of your birth time, as the Astrologer will generally work with you and the information you have to the best of their ability.

The astrologer will seek to understand your expectations

This first step is an essential preliminary, because it is important to the astrologer that you can take away with you from the reading a new level of understanding of personal value, therefore it’s safe to expect queries surrounding your reasons behind seeking an Astrologer, any questions you may have and your current state of mind as it applies to your reading.

There are many reasons a person may feel inclined to seek the advice of an Astrologer and this could be out of curiosity or perhaps an urge drawing them towards the experience because it could play a major role in helping them on their journey. They may also have a specific question in mind, such as what is likely to happen for them in their romantic lives this year, which months to look out for good career opportunities or when might be the most beneficial dates to sign an important contract. Many people seek an Astrologer when, despite being unaware before their reading, they are going through some hugely important, once-in-a-lifetime transits to their natal chart and they are very much in need of some guidance and clarity to help them through these.

The astrologer will open up a dialogue about your natal chart and what this means

There are many questions that can be addressed during an astrological consultation and the delineation of your natal chart will help enormously with this because it represents the uniqueness of your natural inclinations and much of the advice offered can depend on this. For example, your natal chart provides a complex signature of your natal blueprint that can only be fully understood in light of the path you have chosen throughout your life and your own consciousness evolution. When this is discussed, the expressions and tendencies of your natal chart will become clearer to the astrologer, who will then share their astrological wisdom and knowledge with you so that you can together build a picture of how the energies and archetypes of your chart might respond to those that are offered by the transiting planets over the coming months or years.

The astrologer will do their best to answer your questions by studying the range of charts relating to your needs

Transit or Progression Charts

There are many charts an astrologer might look to for the information to assist in providing answers to your questions and these include progressed charts, transit charts, solar or lunar return charts, solar arc charts or other people’s charts if you have requested a synastry reading (at their discretion), to name just a few. You may need a pen and piece of paper handy if you would like to jot down some of the dates the astrologer provides when looking at your coming transits over the next six months to a year, so that you can remember which themes to expect when.

Personal Development

An Astrologer might share with you potentialities in your natal chart than can be realised from a perspective of personal development or the types of energies that may for whatever reason feel stuck and how these can be overcome. Following some dialogue on your natal chart and how you are currently receiving this, this part is likely to be an empowering process, which will help to bring clarity to many of the things you are experiencing in your life at the moment.

A Healing Process

The Astrologer may discuss with you any major transits that you are currently experiencing or that you have coming up on the horizon over the next year. Quite often major transits can turn out to be life-changing experiences that, when understood from an Astrological perspective, they become doorways towards illumination and healing at a spiritual or soul level. The healing process through the wisdom of Astrology can in such a way become a very enlightening, transformative and emotionally rewarding experience.

Invitations for Further Questions

Before the Astrologer closes the reading they will usually ask whether you have any further queries or feedback about the consultation, which will give you further opportunities both to delve deeper into any of the topics that have been discussed or to satisfy any curiosities that have niggled away at you throughout the reading. The reading is all about you and your journey, so it is just as essential as all the steps discussed previously to this one!
