How Can Astrology Help Me?

"You shall manifest your destiny just as the acorn grows into the oak tree. You cannot be other than what you are and as you accept this, life responds." 

Alana Fairchild, Rumi, Oracle Deck; https://www.alanafairchild.com/oracle-decks/

The ancients say that we are as much part of the earth as all the other living organisms. We sprout forth from life in the way that they do. Animals, trees and plants all follow a pre destined pattern to become what they are going to be. But how do we know what our pre destined pattern is? 

Astrology can show us a blueprint for what we are destined to become in this lifetime. The energies we are learning to embody and the likely lessons or experiences we might have which will facilitate this. 

Sometimes, when we are in a difficult environment or around the wrong people it can be hard for us to listen to our inner knowing which is guiding us towards who we are meant to become. We feel that it is safer to try and 'fit in' and be like everyone else. It can be hard to go against the grain. 

A natal chart reading can give your inner knowing a voice, it can resonate back to you what you already know. A confirmation that you are on the right track, even if everyone else thinks you are going the wrong way. Some people are here to follow a straight path and some are meant to go in many different directions.

Like the mighty oak tree in this picture, its branches have taken many twists and turns but these have allowed it to grow into one perfect whole. Your life may take many twists and turns or you may grow straight and tall like a Douglas fir.

Neither tree is right or wrong, just growing in a different way. Astrology allows you the space to know you are growing in your own way and that is just fine.
