How to Choose an Astrologer: A Guide to Finding the Right Fit

Updated: Dec 23, 2024

Hello, friend. If you’ve landed here, chances are you’re curious about astrology—or maybe you’re craving a deeper connection to yourself. Either way, welcome. Think of this as stepping into a cosmic kitchen, where the stars hold recipes for insight, clarity, and maybe even a little magic.


Choosing an astrologer is a big deal. It’s personal, vulnerable, and, let’s be honest, kind of like picking someone to hold your secrets while helping you find your way. With so many different styles and approaches, finding someone who aligns with your needs can feel overwhelming. I’m here to simplify the process and share insights on what to look for in an astrologer.


If you’re considering me, I’ll also give you a glimpse into my unique approach to astrology and how I work with clients. Let’s get started.


What’s Their Approach to Astrology?

Astrology isn’t one-size-fits-all. Some astrologers focus on personality, others on predictive timing, and some use astrology as a tool for healing and self-reflection. Before you start looking, it’s worth asking yourself: What am I seeking?Are you looking for practical guidance, soulful self-discovery, or a combination of both?


I practice Hellenistic astrology, a tradition rooted in ancient wisdom that blends beautifully with modern interpretations. It’s a soulful, cyclical approach that focuses on uncovering purpose and understanding life’s natural rhythms. My work highlights possibilities, acknowledges challenges, and leans into healing points in the chart—places where profound growth and transformation can occur.


If you’re seeking astrology for personal development, clarity, or life planning, this style might resonate deeply with you.


Do They Speak Your Language?

Astrology can feel like learning a new dialect. Terms like "Venus square Saturn" might sound abstract or intimidating. A good astrologer should be able to translate these celestial alignments into insights that feel practical and meaningful.

I’m a big believer in clear, kind communication. When I work with you, I’ll walk you through the nuances of your chart, naming placements and aspects while offering actionable takeaways. My goal? To empower you with knowledge you can carry long after our session—not just clarity for today, but tools to navigate tomorrow.


Will They Tell You What to Do?

Here’s the thing: astrology isn’t about telling you what to do. It’s about revealing possibilities and potential paths while keeping your free will front and center. Your choices are the most powerful ingredient in any reading.


When we work together, you’ll never hear me say, “You must do this.” Instead, I focus on showing you where the flow is in your chart—the places where energy feels easeful and aligned—so you can make decisions with confidence. Astrology is your map; you’re the navigator.


What Do Others Say About Them?

Word of mouth is invaluable. Reviews can often reveal an astrologer’s style and the kind of impact they have on their clients. When exploring testimonials, look for themes like clarity, empowerment, and connection.


My clients often share that they leave sessions feeling more aligned, seen, and empowered. One of my favorite pieces of feedback is: “I feel like you know me better than I do” or "I feel like you have a cheat sheet on me." That’s my goal every time—to offer you insights that help you deepen your connection with yourself and move through life with intention and clarity.


Do They Feel Safe to You?

Astrology often dives into tender places—your fears, dreams, and patterns. It’s essential to find someone who feels authentic, nonjudgmental, and safe. Trust your intuition here.

I strive to create a space that’s warm, supportive, and a little quirky. Having navigated my own cycles of growth and healing, I hold space for the person I’ve been while celebrating the person I’ve become. Astrology is a tool for self-discovery, and I hope to show you the shortcuts to self-love and self-awareness as you move toward a life of ease and joy.


Do They Offer the Experience You’re Looking For?

Some astrologers stick to straightforward chart readings, while others create multi-faceted experiences that you can integrate into your daily life. Think about what resonates with you. Are you looking for depth, actionable tools, maybe a little bit of magic?


I curate more than just readings; I also create tools like rituals, planners, or meditations so that you can carry your reading into your life. From my Astrology Planner for 2025 to custom candle rituals, everything I offer is designed to deepen your relationship with yourself. My handmade intention candles and personalized rituals are crafted to help you integrate astrology into your daily life with beauty and intention.


If you’re curious about astrology for manifestation or intentional living, these tools might be exactly what you need to bring clarity and magic into your practice.


Trust the Connection

Ultimately, astrology is deeply personal. The right astrologer should feel like a fit for both your heart and your head. Look for someone who knows their craft, radiates passion for the work, and creates a space where you feel both seen and inspired. At the end of the day, trust your gut. Sometimes, the energy just feels right.


Why I Might Be the Right Astrologer for You

Astrology isn’t just my work; it’s my calling. It transformed my life, and now I use it to help others reconnect with their spirit and navigate life with clarity and purpose. Whether through chart readings, custom ritual candles, or my Astrology Planner, everything I create is rooted in love and intention.


If you’re still reading, maybe we’ve already got a cosmic connection. Reach out—I’d love to help you navigate your stars. The universe is on your side, and I’m here to cheer you on.


Warmly,
