The difference between knowing astrology and performing a chart reading for yourself or someone else is being able to find the story in the chart. Without the story, your interpretations sound flat, clichéd, and either barely relevant or, perhaps worse, true for everyone. You know this is the one thing that will make your chart delineations vital and inspiring, but this simple step is frustratingly elusive.

Pulling on my background in stage production and creative writing, I'll teach you my no-nonsense method for looking at the chart and readily identifying the character interactions that plot out the story of your life. This approach is what allowed me to go from an astrology noob to a professional reader in a surprisingly short time!
