What are the building blocks of an astrology practice and how do we transition to a part-time or full-time astrology practice? Join Joli and Aswin as they discuss the various ups and downs of getting started in our astrology practices and how we can go on to cultivate our development in the sacred art that is astrology. From simply just getting stuck into reading charts to doing dontation-based readings, writing blog posts on topics that interest you, and volunteering at conferences--Joli and Aswin share their learning experiences.

Joli and Aswin continue their discussion on client chart prep and what techniques they like to use--and when and why they use what! We talk about consultation charts--what are they and how do we use them? How much detail do we need about the client and the client's life before the session? Is the client supposed to tell us what they need or are astrologer's supposed to divine this? Is there always a pressing need on the client's side? How long should sessions be? Tune in to hear thoughts and conversation on these questions and more.

What are the steps for preparing for a client session? What is the process leading up to the booking in of a client consultation and then preparing for it? Join Joli and Aswin as they discuss the different ways they approach this part of an astrologer's practice and their reasoning behind their choices. This is the first half of a conversation around client/chart prep that leads into a discussion on technical prep that will be featured in Episode 5.
