How to find a qualified astrologer in Western Australia

When considering an astrological consultation there are many issues to consider, so how do you chose if you don’t already know of a good astrologer ?     Some things to consider are:

  • Have you spoken to someone who can recommend the astrologer ?
  • Does the astrologer have a recognised astrology qualification ?
  • How long is the consultation ?
  • How much does it cost ? 
  • Will you receive a tape or written record of the consultation ?
  • Can you contact them afterwards to clarify any uncertain points ?
    Where will they conduct the consultation ?

What is a qualified astrologer ?   There are a variety of astrology schools in Australia which teach a structured astrology curriculum and test their students to ensure a flow of consistent and high quality of astrology practitioners into the community.
