Q&A 12-16-2005

Dec 16, 2005

Q: What is astrology?
A: It calculates where various celestial bodies were in the sky when you were born, and defines how that affects your life and behavior.

Q: How does a normal session with you work?
A:Prior to our meeting, clients give me their time, date and place of birth. When they come in, we discuss what I see in their chart, focusing on specific concerns they may have. I make a timeline for what they are going through and how best to handle it. I tape the session so that clients can revisit the conversation later on.

Q:Why would clients want to consult with you during their Big Island vacation?
A:When people are traveling, they may be more open to trying a new thing. On vacation, they have more time to reflect on life.

Q: Why do you offer your services at hotel spas?
A: At a spa, people are focusing on physical health. I like to work with clients on their mental and emotional health, to enhance the traditional spa experience.

Q: What types of clients can benefit from a session with you?
A: It’s ideal for someone at a turning point, such as a new graduate or recently retired professional, and it’s helpful for clients with something big on the horizon, like a marriage or career change.

Q: How has astrology made a difference in your life?
A: I’m definitely an optimist. Astrology has helped me be more realistic and trust my instincts.
