My name is Craig Dorn and I have been studying astrology since 2018. I have been offering professional consultations since 2021.
The foundation of my education in astrology was based on traditional Western Hellenistic Astrology. As my studies broadened, I began to delve more into more modern schools of Astrology specifically psychological astrology. While the basis of my interpretation will always have a traditional approach, I do use several contemporary methods and techniques.
I’ve studied the teachings of many prominent and internationally renowned astrologers as well as completed several professional courses. I’ve also began my B.S. in psychology to help complement my astrological consultations. In the future I intend to continue this education by pursuing my Master’s in clinical counseling.
Some of the biggest influences for me have been Robert Hand, Sue Thompkins, Dane Rudhyar, Liz Greene, Steven Forrest, and Carl Jung. The teachings of analytical psychology play heavily into how I approach my astrological practice.
My consultations are collaborative where I engage in open dialogue with my clients so they can provide immediate feedback. This helps to hone in on the actual details of what is happening in a person’s life and determine the possible direction things are likely to move into. I also ensure that my delineation of a horoscope is not just descriptive but prescriptive. My goal is for people leave their session with the tools needed to feel confident managing the archetypal influences present in their chart to help them live a more meaningful and purpose driven life.
Since we were children, society has programmed into us an image of ourselves it deems appropriate though this image may have very little connection to our true identity. Sometimes it can even be in outright opposition to our personal needs and desires. The techniques and methods within astrology can help us realign with our true purpose in this world and give us the means in which to discern our authentic story from a narrative that was thrust upon us. My mission is to help others gain insight about themselves in order to facilitate radical transformation in life. This is why I keep my consultation fees modest. I want the opportunity to work with and help as many people as I possibly can. That is the greatest gift astrology has given me.
