Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why do you need my birth details? 

    The starting point for any astrological consultation is your birth chart (also referred to as your natal chart). The birth chart provides a snapshot of how the sun, moon, and planets were positioned in the sky above you at the exact moment of your birth, and to calculate this accurately I will need to know your date, time, and place of birth.

    All consultations offered use the birth chart in some way so your birth information is a pre-requisite for booking.

  • How do consults take place? 

    I work with clients from all over the world, so the majority of consults take place over Zoom. I offer the option to record all consults which are emailed to the client after the session finishes. You will also receive a copy of the relevant chart (i.e. birth, transit or solar return) to follow along with.

    If you are located in or around Geraldton, Western Australia, I offer the option of an in-person consult. If you are interested in this option, please advise at the time of booking.

  • What if I have to rebook, cancel or reschedule my consult? 

    I understand that sometimes things come up, and am happy to reschedule a consult with a minimum of 24 hours advance notice. If you need to reschedule, you can let me know by email at star.story.astrology@gmail.com, or you can re-book via our online booking system, Calendly. I am always happy to work with you to find a suitable time to rebook.

    If you would like to cancel your session entirely, I will offer a full refund if I receive notice of cancellation a minimum of 24 hours prior to your scheduled session. No refunds are offered when cancellation occurs within 24 hours of the scheduled start time.

  • Why do I need to make payment up-front? 

    I offer a limited amount of bookings, and pre-payment reserves your spot and gives me confidence that you will show up! Additionally, as I work with clients from all over the world, it is very difficult to chase people up for payment afterwards – I would prefer to spend my time deepening my knowledge of astrology.

  • Can I book ongoing sessions? 

    Yes! Let me know the frequency you are interested in, and we’ll make it happen.

    I will be happy to discuss a discounted price for ongoing sessions.

  • What if I don't know my birth time?

    Astrology is remarkably precise, and in some cases a span of 15-20 minutes could significantly impact the composition of your birth chart. Given this, at this stage I only offer consultations with a known birth time.

    If you have no way of finding your birth time out, there is the option of undertaking what is called a ‘rectification chart’, where an astrologer will work with you to narrow down a birth time based on significant events that have occurred in your life. I don’t offer this service currently, but may do so in the future – please check back later.

  • What if I'm not available during any of your consult times?

    Contact me and I’ll do my best to sort something out. Generally we can find a mutually convenient time for all time zones.

  • What house system do you use?

    Placidus, it’s what I trained in and still resonates the most for natal chart work. I use traditional rulerships and essential dignities, and blend an intuitive mix of traditional and modern techniques during my consultations.

  • Do you do events?

    Yes! I have provided mini-readings at events and parties and am happy to tailor my offerings to suit your needs. If you are interested in booking an event, please get in touch via my contact page, socials or email star.story.astrology@gmail.com
