There are times when it is necessary to bear the weight of another’s actions from lOve and respect. There maybe a quiet dignity in shielding a soul from poison they do not yet perceive, but it is still a strange burden, this unseen guardianship, for it demands not only silence but the quiet surrender of your own standing, sacrificed, perhaps, to the murmurs of those who do not, or will not, understand.
How effortless it is for the world to cast its judgments, to see only the surface of things and assume knowledge of the depths beneath. And yet, to intervene, to explain, to justify, would be to betray the very spirit of such protection. No, better to let the whispers run their course, better to suffer the green stain yourself than to allow another, so unguarded, to bear it unknowing.
There is no gratitude to be found in such a task. No vindication. Only the private knowing that harm has been averted. Perhaps, in time, they will see. Or perhaps not. Either way, it is a quiet, unspoken grace to suffer blame rather than let another fall.

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.
