There are some things that astrology will not be able to do and this is to address just that.

Consult, not counsel

Astrology is not a form of counselling, not meant to give methodical approaches and daily routines to help deal with issues. What it does, is consult. It provides clarity and shows you the direction your life is going towards. This enables you to better prepare for the challenges that will come your way.

Think of astrology as a ‘torchlight’ that you carry with you through your journey of life. This torchlight is there for you to see what is ahead and to better map out what you are going to do about the events that occur.

Change your life

Fate. We are souls, no matter young or old, with our lives pathed out for us the moment we were born. We have been through this process numerous times, learning different lessons and experiencing different situations.

Astrology can’t change that. It can only provide answers as to what we came here for. Lessons we are going to learn in this life and pre-empt us of recurring themes.

Many astrologers believe that we have free will over our choices and decisions. Fate however shows that whatever is not meant for us, will ultimately not be in our life. It’s because our fate has designed our life in a certain manner, that will allow us to experience things in our life that will allow us to be more ‘evolved’ and to grow.

‘Feng shui’ your way out of things

In Feng Shui, chinese metaphysics, they practice the balance of yin and yang. The subtraction or addition of elements is used to mitigate harsh factors while bringing in beneficial factors. The 5 elements are used to reduce the damage that negative events bring and to increase good fortune.

Astrology however does not express these in such a manner and instead points out certain areas of one’s life in order to help or aid in unfortunate circumstances. By pointing out these fortunate and unfortunate circumstances, how it will play out etc, you will be aware of it, be more prepared and to know who or where to seek aid from.

This helps many in understanding what they came here for and to stick through the tough times in their own lives. It will help them realize that whatever they are going through is there for a reason and also a way to see the light at the end of the tunne. All of these are lessons that they came here to experience.


While this speaks about what astrology can not do, here’s what astrology can do for you.
