Is Buying an Astrology Reading a Good Idea For You?
Edited by Gemma

There are an increasing number of astrologers out there with an increasing number of people interested in astrology and all the finer details of the subject, but having an interest or a curiosity in astrology and knowing whether you will benefit from an astrology reading are not the same things by any means. This is where I can step in to help you! There are so many astrologers out there offering readings without explicitly explaining how we can benefit from these and this may create some confusion and hesitancy when it comes to buying a reading and this means many people are potentially missing out on the benefits. Alternatively, we can be in the know with a prior understanding of exactly what we are walking away with.

Astrology Readings are Great Regardless of Your Knowledge Level

Many people worry about what the elements of their zodiac sign mean or what it means when we have such a planet in a particular sign. First thing is first, if you are curious about the subject and you let your astrologer know about this beforehand, there is a dead set chance you will be walking away from the reading with a greater understanding of astrology than you had previously and this definitely means greater wisdom too! The subject of astrology incorporates so many skills, that when these are used together (as they inevitably are when you learn more about it), the result very often leads to higher consciousness and enlightenment for you.

Understanding and Openness to Receiving

Some of the skills astrology requires are understanding and openness to perceiving people and situations differently. You simply cannot look at someone else’s natal chart without being open to trying to understanding them better as people, what makes them tick and why they are the way they are. This is precisely what looking at our astrology chart is all about and it will be the same when you look at and consider your own. You will find a much greater understanding of your own persona, character and why you are the way you are. The more you learn about yourself through astrology (either by studying it deeply for yourself or purchasing time with an astrologer), the more you will understand your own natural, core energetic principles and the more you will be able to learn how to deal with any energetic blockages that are holding you back in life. Do you want to know what your soul purpose is in this life? Astrology can help you clear away any negativity and confusion within you that may get in the way of you and your intimate relationship with your soul and the reason you are here, leading to illumination and greater fulfilment.

Perceptiveness and Psychological Awareness

In your natal chart you will have a zodiacal placement for Venus, one for Mars and one for each of the other planets to represent where they were in the heavens astronomically at the time you were born. This means that while you may have Venus in Sagittarius, you may have Mars in Scorpio and bringing the two together to interpret can take quite some skill in synthesis, especially when looking at these according to which house of your natal chart they land in. Then when you bring in all of the other planets and placements (including your Ascendant and Midheaven), things can become complex! Not only does this require perceptiveness, but your perceptiveness will increase and so will your understanding of psychology. As Carl Jung said, ‘my evenings are taken up very largely with astrology. I make horoscopic calculations in order to find a clue to the core of psychological truth’.

Astrology Transits for Your Year Ahead

Astrology transits to your natal chart can show us some of the things the universe might have in store for you for as far into the future as you like. However, most often people are interested in what is just around the corner, for example, the coming year. It’s great to be able to prepare ourselves for the general incoming and going energies that we may experience through restriction, conflict or change so we can save time for making the most of those themes which are more likely to bring us gifts and opportunities in life. There are definitely certain windows of time when we tend to have more luck than others and we can tell which areas of life these will be in, so it is a great idea to use these windows of opportunity wisely.

Other Benefits of Astrology

You might attract certain things into your life that aren’t necessarily for your highest good, yet you wonder why you tend to do this. Astrology can illuminate the reasons for this and in the process show us some possible ways forwards that are great for our improvement. We can break negative cycles that are holding us back according to Astrological insight and this can prove to be really empowering when working with your own charts with an astrologer to hand, especially in relationships.
