Best astrologers may seem hard to find. Having someone look
at your birth chart is a little like giving them a peak of your soul, your
innermost, private self. There's good reason for caution and for being
selective about who gets to look at the inner you. I've provided the following
tips to help you find the best astrologer to whom you can relate and feel
confident about giving access to the personal information revealed in your
horoscope.
1. Get Referrals -- Just like all services from choosing a
personal physician, a hairdresser, mechanic, plumber, or an employee -- being
referred to an astrologer by someone you know and trust increases your
confidence.
2. Sample an astrologer's readings:
*If the astrologer you are interested in has a website -
visit it.
*If sample astrology readings are provided on the website
read a few on subjects that interest you like a romantic compatibility
horoscope reading, a career/vocational astrology reading, etc. Note: most of
these samples will be from computerized readings, not live, personal readings.
*If the friend who referred you to an astrologer has a
reading ask if you can listen to or read all or part of the reading. Also, ask
your friend what he/she has applied from the reading and how that has been
helpful. An astrology reading or horoscope analysis is only helpful if it is
actionable -- if there are actions for you to take that if taken, will improve
your life even in a small way. Positive action rules!
3. Interview astrologers you're referred to or read about
Some good questions include:
*What is your basis for astrology and which astrologers do
you most admire and why?
*Do you have any training or background in human
psychology/human dynamics? If so what is your training and/or background.
*How does astrology help you in your personal life?
Finding the best astrologer for you can be fun. Remember to
always use your own intuition in addition to the tips listed here. In a future
article I'll give tips on applying intuition to choosing the best astrologer
and getting the best astrology reading for you. Here's to you and your own best
astrologer!
