Everything changed for me forty years ago after I survived a light aircraft crash. It made me face my mortality and catapulted me onto a profound healing journey, which sparked off my interest in astrology and the Great Cycle of life and death. I initially trained with the Elizabeth Kubler Ross organisation as a Life, Death, and Transition facilitator, and went on to gain an MA in the Rhetoric and Rituals of Death (King Alfreds, Winchester) and a second MA in Creative Writing (Oxford Brookes).
During this time, I began working as Dr Peter Fenwick’s honorary researcher for one of the first End of Life Experience Studies, which studied consciousness at the end of life. I became convinced that conscious does indeed, continue after physical death. I also wrote several books about how to talk about death and dying, and how living fully, dying consciously is the path to spiritual wellbeing.
This inspired me to train as a therapist, specialising in trauma, end of life issues, bereavement and grief, and to work as a Death Cafe facilitator. Alongside confronting my own emotional and existential challenges, listening to people’s stories and how they overcame such difficult issues moved me deeply, and I increasingly felt a strong desire to study the soul’s journey as a way of making sense of life. This culminated in achieving a Diploma with the Faculty of Astrological Studies and to specialise as a Soul Astrologer.
My work now is focused on helping people to identify why they are living the life they are, and the evolutionary path they are being called to experience. I also have the joy of interviewing Master Astrologers such as Rick Levine, Evolutionary Astrologer Steven Forrest, Medical Astrologer Judith Hill, and Esoteric Astrologer William Meander for the bi-monthly Astrological Journal, and I have had several astrology articles published in the AJ and on Astro.com. You can also check out my Celebrating Astrology YouTube Channel for more interviews with Master Astrologers.
As I mention on my Astrology Page I love how being an astrological consultant has pulled all the threads of my life together. Please do get in touch if you would like to book a consultation.
