Julie believes with support and encouragement we can understand ourselves so much better through the practice of astrology. We can change our perceptions, the way we direct our thoughts, opening our spirit to a more positive and purposeful energy. It is an exciting journey into mind, body and soul.
She has a holistic approach to astrology, exploring karmic issues and emotional blockages that lead to physical ailments. When we understand the problems we create and change our behaviour and the exchange of energy between others, then our life takes on a whole new meaning.
In her journey into the spiritual world I have taken many paths into healing modalities in order to improve my welfare and understanding. Each avenue afforded me more knowledge and awareness of the intrinsic connection that each and every person has with another.
We are all searching for peace and harmony, fulfilment, love and enjoyment. Finding the direction your spirit has chosen you to embrace this lifetime and how to fulfil your journey is so important to us all.
