I know that many of our best astrologers are psychologists. I saw a psychologist yesterday at work and felt stupid for asking, but I asked if he utilized or ever thought of utilizing astrology in his practice. He had never heard of it...yet he said, in his terms of using his psychology on me...."sounds interesting, maybe you can share more with me later" I was excited, but to only then realize that maybe he thought I was nutso!
Can anyone share with me more of those that use astrology in their practice so I can reasearch their studies? Or can anyone give me examples of astrology used in studies of psychological practice?
Thanks!

Hi Steph,

Carl Jung used birthcharts to pinpoint the potential causes of problems in clients.

In the 1980s, Bruno and Louise Huber developed a technique that combined astrology and psychology - eventually founding The Astological Psychology Instittute in Switzerland. This new/modern branch of astrology has now been recognised/accepted throughout Europe (I believe). You can find their website at http://home.btclick.com/apiukorg/ - and at http://www.api-uk.org/about.htm
