You’ve worked hard.

But to date, your actions have not delivered the desired results.

More likely than not, this is because of undesirable (i.e. outgrown) behaviours, which in turn, have been driven by undesirable (i.e. outgrown) stories about yourself to which, over time, you’ve become attached.

It only makes sense that to get desired results, you’ll need to manifest different behaviour that is fuelled by new and better stories.

This is precisely where astrological coaching comes in.

For example, Mr W has struggled to forge a stable career. Every job that he’s ever enjoyed has ended in ‘tears’ – either his or his employer’s, or both. Now, it just so happens that Mr W’s Moon is incredibly sensitive. The good news is that with this, he is easily in touch with not only his own feelings and moods but also those of others. The bad news is that he has tendency to dwell on various typical workplace ‘hurts’  long after everyone else has moved on.

While Mr W cannot change his Moon, he can change the role it plays in his stories. For example, Mr W also has a very strong Mars. With this placement, self-control is the by-word – anger (and hurt) are expressed in a cool, level-headed way. Although Mr W has never identified himself as a cool, level-headed person, he admits that he could be. Indeed, he can now remember certain times when he has been just that. By widening the narrative arc of his story to place his Mars in a more prominent role, he will be better able to deal with workplace stresses in a new – and more (personally) profitable way.

Consider Ms F, who is hoping to change her career. Although she’s drawn to the freedom and excitement of free-lance work, she’s reluctant to give up the regular pay check. Now what?

As it turns out, Ms F has Saturn (responsibility) in opposition to Jupiter (adventure)– two very different (and opposing) energies. Because of her personal history, Ms F has pretty much identified with her Saturn. Upon learning that her Jupiter was just as important a part of who she is as was her Saturn, she decided to sample some of those new – and exciting – freelance opportunities.

How about Ms B, who is not only feeling frustrated but also very hurt?

For months, Ms B been working extra hard to build up her business only to find herself let down again and again by people she ought to have been able to trust. By it’s nature, Ms B’s sensitive Sun is trusting; she must be extra careful not to be duped. Worse, with her Sun she’s prone to escapist behaviour – it could well be more difficult for her than some to face up to the truth.

Now what?

At the moment, Ms B is still working through her situation although I suspect, that with time, she’ll conclude that it will also be her Jupiter that comes to the rescue.
