General advice on Astrology.

I am an Astrologer and I can say without fear of contradiction that most of the 'Astrology' you will come across on the Web, in newspapers and magazines, or in the Media is nonsense!

This may surprise you, but due to lack of regulation anyone can set themselves up as an Astrologer and proceed to make lots of money with little or no knowledge of the subject - after all, who bothers to check their credentials? Just because someone appears on the radio or on TV or has celebrity status does not mean that they are skilled in Astrology - even though they try to give that impression. One of the offenders is the self-styled 'UK's Leading Astrologer' Jonathan Cainer. It is also true that the Sun Sign Astrologers can say whatever comes into their heads and no one will doubt them or the accuracy of their predictions. It's time that ordinary people began to keep an eye on what is being predicted to see if it comes true. I can tell you that in the vast majority of cases these prophecies fail to match up to reality. Check it out!

Apart from out and out con men, and there are plenty of these, there is another breed of pseudo-Astrologer who, armed with a computer program feely available to anyone, set themselves up as Astrologers often with sophisticated web sites and proceed to fleece the public by pretenting to give them 'personal' reports. A survey of these scams is under way and the results can be seen on my main site at:

Astrology is such a valuable subject capable of providing a lifetime of fascinating study and enlightenment and, in a practical sense, can be of immense value to the world if only the truth would emerge. Before that can happen attitudes have to change and the armies of pseudo-Astrologers will have to learn the subject properly or find some other way of conning the public.
