Astrology as a Business
pressure-filled one; they are at a period in their lives
where they have ceased to respond to the demands of
their particular circumstances, and a place where they
cannot seem to gain any reflection pertaining to their
present condition. They no longer know what is
happening to them, and they are reaching outside of
themselves for a response, for some feedback, or for
confirmation (one way or another) as to what is going on.
The important thing to note here is that, in the majority
of cases, the clients are at a breaking point or turning
point in their lives: something has to give since they
have nothing more to give—and since they have ceased
to respond to their conditions. They are at the point of
saying, "the hell with it," and are forcing themselves (or
perhaps they feel they are being forced) to continue with
whatever situation or responsibilities they may have.
With some exceptions, this is the general condition of
the average client when they enter my office. This
condition dictates or defines my approach. The average
client is in no mood to benefit from any "words of
wisdom" I might have about the possibilities of their
natal configurations. They are not quite ready for
philosophy.
