Jonathan is an Ayurvedic astrologer and Psychosynthesis counselor who brings almost 20 years of spiritual practice and self-development, as well as a deep understanding of the Vedic and Western astrological systems, into play in his readings. He offers natal chart readings with the option of regular sessions via Zoom or Skype at a frequency of your choosing. He works in the overlapping space between Astrological analysis, counseling, and holistic life guidance and coaching.
He holds an undergraduate degree in Psychology, a Post-Graduate Diploma in Psychosynthesis counseling, and qualification in Ayurvedic Astrology from David Frawley’s American Institute of Vedic Studies. He has worked and studied closely with several accomplished Western and Vedic Astrologers over the last 12 years to develop a deep and intuitive understanding of the principles and energies that need to be worked with and understood in chart analysis.
Ayurvedic Astrology carries a particular focus on helping us understand psychological or physical issues we may be struggling with and how to heal them naturally and holistically. it uses the idea of ‘remedial measures’ whereby dietary and lifestyle planning, planetary mantras, and gemstones are all tools that can be used in order to bring about the desired therapeutic result. Developing an experiential connection to the archetypes or personalities of the different planets is one of the many unique strengths of Vedic astrology.
Jonathan is able to use core Psychosynthesis ideas and counseling skills in order to create a space that is empathic, nourishing, healing, and affirming for his clients. Vedic astrology, or ‘Jyotish’ as it is sometimes known, has almost infinite depth and richness and includes the millennia of wisdom accumulated in Vedic culture, through the use of Nakshatras (lunar mansions), Dashas (planetary periods), and Yogas (unique planetary combinations). Jonathan is based in South-West England but is available to work with people all over the world.
