It can be difficult to stand up for the truth, but that’s what makes it so important to do so, particularly when everyone else seems to be on the opposite side.
Social pressures, insecurities, and fear keep our mouths shut as injustices occur. Scared of the consequences of speaking out or what people will think, it may feel easier to sit back and let things slide.
But there are times when it is so important to stand up for your beliefs and times when you must dare to raise your voice, especially if it’s not the popular opinion. That is when it becomes mandatory for you to stand up for what’s right. If you don’t, who will?
“Raise your words, not your voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.” — Rumi
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” — Martin Luther King, Jr

https://www.andrewsmith.ieAstrology 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.
