Here are my answers to some frequently asked questions:

What can a consultation with you do for me?

An interpretation of your natal chart provides insight into your own nature, and a better understanding of what things drive you and create a sense of fulfillment in your life.  It can also give clarity in relation to current life issues, and provide potential avenues for the resolution of those issues.

Does astrology predict the future?

The simple answer is “no.”  While I am able to see trends and themes coming down the road for you, I am not able to predict future events with any assured accuracy.  The future is always subject to change due to our action and free will, and therefore can not be predicted.  We can, however, see what the “weather report” is to know what the trends are, and therefore how to best prepare for those trends.

What will you need from me in order cast my chart, and prepare for the session?

I will send you a questionnaire requiring your birth date, time, and place, as well as the answers to other questions that will help me best address your needs.  (sample questionnaire)

How should I prepare for our appointment?

Schedule the session during a time when you will be free of distractions.  Have a pen and paper handy to take notes.  You may also want to spend some time beforehand (perhaps the night previous) writing down the main things you’d like to know about.  You can let me know this at the beginning of the session.

What will happen in the session?

In the first few minutes, I will ask you to present your intention of focus for the session, and allow time for you to ask any questions of me.  I’ll give a short introduction to astrological principles, then tell you what I see in the chart.  You may ask questions or dialogue with me at any point along the way.  I value dialogue as part of the reading process.  But it is also just fine to receive the reading in silence:  whichever you are most comfortable with.

How often should I see you?

This is up to you.  Sometimes a client will feel the need to schedule another follow-up appointment shortly after the first, to clarify any questions or to more deeply explore material brought up in our first session.  Others will see me every few months, or once yearly, depending on what kind of service they desire.  I also provide ongoing astrologically based counseling, in which we’d meet at more regular intervals, but again the frequency is up to you.
