Once described as an astrologer’s astrologer Gloria has moved between many levels of astrology including esoteric, mundane and natal. She studied at the Faculty of Astrological Studies in London and took her exams, which included astronomy, over a period of two days (16 hours) at Bath University in 1991. Soon after, she took over from world famous Russell Grant as the astrologer for the prestigious Aberdeen Evening Express. This led to other newspapers and magazines, radio and television appearances, not least with Fay Weldon celebrated novelist and screen writer, as her personal astrologer on a British television talk show. This led to a wider recognition of Gloria’s skills and intuitive translations of birth charts and requests for her to work for celebrities such as Jerry Hall, David Bailey, Valerie Singleton OBE and Sally Burton widow of the great actor Richard Burton, multiplied. She caught the eye of David Icke who called her ‘the most gifted British astrologer I have worked with’ and asked her to write passages on astrology for his controversial and informative book ‘And The Truth Shall Set You Free’. For a while she did workshops with David talking in depth about the ability of astrology to reflect planetary events to earthly events, known as cause and effect, the missing link here being choice, which, according to Gloria, is where destiny becomes interfaced with circumstance. This is Gloria’s speciality and what makes her appeal to a wider audience. To Fay Weldon she is ‘magic’ and a little of that comes from being born in Glastonbury, known as the Isle of Avalon where the mystical Camelot was said to have existed. In the Isle of Avalon she was, for a time, the ‘court astrologer’ but instead of a crystal ball, she worked from the longitude and latitude of the planets and the positions they formed geometrically to the horoscopes of individuals. Through an alchemical mix of science, intuition and understanding, Gloria translates each birth chart with a thoroughness and sight that is rare in today’s cyber world where information can be gleaned at the press of a button. Her own birth chart gives her Sun in Taurus, Moon in Aquarius and Libra Ascendant. This gives her a groundedness and love of the planet on which she lives, together with flashes of intuition which have created an inspirational astrologer with a desire to harmonise all the instruments of human character into a symphony of great potential.
Let Gloria translate your Natal Chart and help you find answers to those questions which will contribute towards a more fulfilling life. Let her help you to avoid repetitive patterns especially where relationships are concerned: search for your character’s strengths and its flaws governed by emotional responses to circumstances and situations: find your body’s weakest areas so that you can protect it more efficiently: explore hidden skills that may perhaps set you on a new career path: look at your inner power structure and what makes you tick: search your past to find what it has contributed to your present: reveal the future ‘energy weather’ around you now and for a while ahead.
Ask Gloria to translate your relationship with another through the blending of both charts and see where you flow with each other and challenge each other. Are you really compatible? If not how do you remove the blocks which trouble your love life? Gloria can take the two charts and either focus on what each person brings to the other. A Relationship Chart is the perfect tool for guidance into understanding each other’s drives and desires. Or she can take the two charts from a midpoint perspective to give you one chart through the merging of each individual’s planetary energy. This is called a Composite Chart, complex but effective in its dealing with the relationship which the two individuals create.
Childrens’ Horoscopes have become very sought after in the past few years and is another branch of astrology that Gloria specialises in. Any parent who has experienced problem children, and that more than likely covers most parents at one time or another, would be helped by understanding the deeper aspect of the child’s character. This can be done through translating the horoscope and looking at the problems and the solutions to them. There is a myriad of qualities and skills that your child carries within him / herself which can be exploited by the knowledgeable parent, thus bringing the best potential of that child into creation. The horoscope is an invaluable tool for guiding the parent into the child’s psyche in order to understand and support the growing child they have brought into the world.
Transit Charts can reveal information regarding what is happening now and in the future. For example if an outer planet such as Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune or Pluto is ‘aspecting’ (making a certain degree of angles) a personal planet – Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus or Mars, it can be having a negative effect on your life which you need to understand, treat and know when it is likely to end. Being able to ‘time’ certain potential events thus helping to prepare for and perhaps divert a particularly troublesome time approaching or make the best of a flow of energy and opportunity coming your way is the greatest strength of the Transit Chart. This translation also combines certain aspects of the Natal Chart because it is how our character reacts to certain events that either make them worse or better!
Never before have we wanted to know so much about ourselves, find reasons for the mistakes we continually make, develop potential and enrich our lives through a personal journey of discovery. Astrology is the science and art which can help us do it and its mechanisms contribute greatly to turning our wheel of life.
Gloria’s experience over twenty years has brought her into contact with many of the more entertaining aspects of astrology and one of these is Pet Astrology. It is amazing how many animal characteristics relate to their individual horoscope and you can have fun spotting your little Taurean cat who likes nothing better to do than snooze, eat and be made a fuss of, or your Libra dog who likes to lick the faces off your visitors and can never make up its mind whether it wants to go for walkies or not!
All the above translations can improve understanding of the Self and others. We think we know ourselves but there is always something else to learn, something else to discover and something else to add to the personality and character we are in the process of developing. Qualities, values and observations all can enrich who we are and help us to function in a more fulfilling and joyful way.
For any of the above charts contact Gloria with your date of birth, place of birth and if known your time of birth.
Chart translations can be posted or e-mailed at your discretion.
