Published on: 14th February, 2026

The discourse delves into the intricate and multifaceted realm of astrology, specifically examining the various methodologies and approaches practitioners adopt in their astrological practices. As the conversation unfolds, one participant, identifying as an Aquarius, expresses a predilection for traditional astrology, while acknowledging the incorporation of additional celestial bodies such as fixed stars and asteroids into their interpretations. This commitment to simplicity, as imparted by their mentor Barbara, underscores a broader philosophical approach that emphasizes clarity and accessibility in astrological readings. The speaker's admiration for the work of Kelly Surtees, a noted astrologer, further enriches the dialogue, illustrating the interconnectedness within the astrological community and the value of mentorship in honing one's craft.

The speaker's openness to various methodologies, despite a strong inclination towards traditional practices, invites a larger conversation about the diverse interpretations of astrological phenomena and the importance of adaptability in one's approach. Additionally, the conversation transcends mere technical discussion as it touches upon the personal astrological chart of the speaker, revealing their Sagittarian ascendant and the placement of significant planets like Saturn and Uranus. This personal revelation serves to humanize the discussion, illustrating how individual experiences and astrological placements can influence one's approach to astrology.

Transcript
Speaker A:

What type of astrology do you practice?

Speaker B:

Well, I'm an Aquarius.

Speaker B:

So what do you think?

Speaker B:

I don't know.

Speaker B:

I like traditional astrology, but then I also like to add in.

Speaker B:

I like to add in stars or fixed stars.

Speaker B:

Sometimes I'll throw in an asteroid here and there, but generally I try to keep it really simple.

Speaker B:

Barbara, my mentor, told me, just keep it simple.

Speaker B:

So I would say traditional.

Speaker B:

I remember taking a workshop with Kelly Surtees a couple months ago and she's really good.

Speaker B:

Like, I love her.

Speaker A:

I see her on Chris Brennan shows.

Speaker A:

That's how I know her.

Speaker A:

And actually I think she has a podcast now called the Water Trio.

Speaker B:

Oh, very cool.

Speaker B:

Yeah, I gotta check it out.

Speaker A:

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker B:

And, and so basically I kind of follow like her rulerships and, and then what she talks about regarding progressions.

Speaker B:

But I'm open to everything.

Speaker B:

I don't think there's one method that's better than another.

Speaker B:

I focus a lot on progressions.

Speaker B:

I love them.

Speaker B:

Some astrologers don't.

Speaker B:

Some astrologers like solar arcs.

Speaker B:

I, I'm not, you know, or solar returns.

Speaker B:

They're okay.

Speaker B:

I really love progressions and trans.

Speaker C:

Nice.

Speaker A:

Okay.

Speaker C:

Progressions are cool.

Speaker A:

So what you saying?

Speaker A:

You, you like traditional?

Speaker A:

Is it safe to say you use whole sign?

Speaker B:

No.

Speaker A:

You use plastic?

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Oh, okay.

Speaker A:

How does that work?

Speaker A:

How does that work with traditional?

Speaker B:

Well, because I keep in mind intercepted houses, so I do I use interceptions?

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Oh, okay.

Speaker A:

Okay.

Speaker C:

You're, you're, you seem to be a more Saturn ruled Aquarius than Uranus.

Speaker B:

Well, if you saw my.

Speaker C:

Based on, based on your use of the word traditional, I'm picking up here that you're more Saturn ruled as an Aquarius and probably Uranus.

Speaker C:

Am I right?

Speaker B:

I. I guess.

Speaker B:

You know, it's funny.

Speaker B:

My ascendant is 13 degrees of sag.

Speaker B:

My Saturn is like right there, like at 9 degrees of sag.

Speaker B:

And then I have Uranus at like 16 degrees of sag.

Speaker B:

So it's like I have my ascendant in the middle of Saturn and Uranus.

Speaker C:

So interesting.

Speaker A:

What are your three majors?

Speaker B:

Sag Rising, Aquarius sun and Cancer Moon.

Profile picture for PAUL HEATH

PAUL HEATH

I am Paul. When I reflect back on my life, I was always interested in astrology. I would read my daily horoscope in the newspaper every day and often wonder, “how do they know?”
One day I was told I am a “cusp of beauty”, because my birthday was the last day of Virgo. I went home to research what cusp of beauty meant. My curiosity soared when finding out the meaning. I didn’t realize that I had just begun the journey of “Know Thyself.”
Learning how to read my natal chart I acquired the skills to assist others with deciphering their own chart-energy. Astrology has helped me understand and accept me for who I am. Although still work in progress, knowing about myself is surely making the process easier. I enjoy helping others (Virgo Sun) with the information I have gathered (Gemini Rising) that will help transform lives (Scorpio Moon) in a positive way.
I look forward to meeting and working with you as we embark on your journey.
