As Astrology moves, slowly-but-surely, from the more alternative, “woo-woo” circles and into the mainstream, more and more people are having their Birth Charts read. As with any science, there are many different schools of astrology, and of course, each astrologer has their own particular approach and area of focus.
I practice Western Tropical Evolutionary Astrology, sometimes called Therapeutic or Counseling Astrology. I emphasize free will choice and strive to empower clients with an understanding of the range of potentials their Birth Chart offers – both the high and low expressions of the energies. It is on that foundation that we can reflect meaningfully on past experiences and make mindful and informed choices going forward. The “astrological weather” out there, we cannot change. But we can change our own responses to it.
Evolutionary Astrologer Steven Forrest has said, “Every Transit can be understood as Angels whispering in your ear." All astrological events happen for the purposes of growth and evolution.
For those who have had at least one Reading with Soul Map Songs—and ideally, for those who have a solid understanding of their own Birth Chart—we can look at how the “current sky” maps onto the Natal Chart. We can compare the present Planetary positions with how we’re feeling and what we’re experiencing in our present-day life. As we interpret and make meaning in this way, we are diving even deeper into self-reflection and self-knowledge… and thus self-empowerment.
With the understanding that Transits are what the Planets are doing right now (vs. what they were doing when I was born), which Planetary energies are most strongly affecting me right now?
What are the potential pitfalls, and what are the ways in which I can harness the positive potentials?
I have been in what feels like a massive life change for several years now... Could this be the effect of a Planetary Progression in my Birth Chart?
With the understanding that Progressions are like my own “personal Transits” that affect only me, how can I better understand and embrace this new set of energies in order to grow with ease and grace?
I am currently struggling with (fill in the blank) issue in my life... What Planetary Transits and/or Progressions can provide context or explanation of what I’m going through?
And therefore, how can a deeper understanding of those energies empower me to make more conscious and informed choices?
Will any upcoming Retrogrades, Lunar or Solar Eclipses affect me in specific ways (e.g., touching a senstive point in my Chart)?
How long will these energies be affecting me?
If you are new to Soul Map Songs, you'll need to do a General Birth Chart Reading first.
