Astrology has been my sole source of income, my way of being and the way that I live since discovering it on the 17th Jan 1993. Self-taught, I did sojourn with a correspondence course with the Faculty of Astrological Studies under the tutorship of Christine Tate-Wheeler, completing three of the four year training modules in a little under a year. However, I never sat the exams due to my commitments to seeing clients and running a school of astrology called The Dublin Astrological Centre.I’ve been ever so fortunate to have attracted people who wanted to work with me from the very beginning of my path and I’ve worked with clients intensely on a daily basis since 1994. I have a varied clientele, located all over the world, and have worked privately with individuals and corporately with business, sports clubs, political parties and religious institutions for over two decades. My practise is based in my office in Blackrock, Dublin, Ireland, from where I write, divine, create and see clients in person or via ZOOM.Until the time of my movement onto my current path, I was reading Geography in Trinity College, Dublin and playing football, two additional passions I still have today. I currently reside in Greystones, Ireland with my family. My life-partner and wife, Karen, walks the same path as an astrologer and we have two children, Sarah and Maya. Together we run the Blue Rose, a school of astrology and spirituality and have students all over the world who download our classes, join in via ZOOM or attend in person. My focus is evident in my extensive public writing. I am interested in helping people develop a deeper confidence in their commitment to what they lOve and living what they love. And I would lOve to share my passion with you and to work with you concerning what you love.I look forward to working with you.

The Gold Diary

On the 23rd July as the newly Ingressed Fixed Fire Sun trioctiles Mutable Fire Jupiter The time and energy wasted in trying to be someone else; in trying to change yourself to look ‘better’; berating yourself to be more spiritual, more open, more present, more easy going, less sensitive, happier, wealthier than you are in…

The Venus Diary

On the 21st July as Transmuting Invisible Cardinal Water Venus opposes Cardinal Earth Capricorn Breaking wide open, senses sharpened, everything seems so sharp, so lucid, so visceral, the heart slows down time so that everything can be taken in, everything… Every emotion heightened; every sound amplified; scents intensified, lingering longer as the suffuse through you,…

The Venus Diary

On the 20th July as Transmuting Invisible Cardinal Water Venus Opposes Cardinal Earth Pluto Such an intensity of feelings and memories she has moved through as late, as Urgency has its vice grip around her.

The Gold Diary

On the 14th July as the Cardinal Water Sun opposes Cardinal Earth Pluto Permit me to ask but three questions: Are you letting your ‘I AM Self’ openly express its power through you or are you getting in the way, selectively choosing who and where to share the lOve of your heart and protecting yourself…

The Venus Diary

On the 10th July as Morning Star Venus prepares to immerse the Sun in her light No longer possessing the emotional energy for child-like, ego driven dramas; no longer able, or willing, to hold onto well intentioned, but unfulfilled emotional promises; switched off to the confusion of the masculine ego’s interpretation of intimacy; frustrated by…

On the 9th July as Cardinal Water Sol opposes Cardinal Earth Saturn It is as if the hand of Fate has stretched out from the gOd’s themselves, as your Light feels as if being tested by a series of external agencies, as everything feels as if it is on slow reel time. Within this ‘slow-mo’ state,…
