"The
astrology readings I have received from Moses Siregar have been extremely

"I
found my astrology reading to be the THE most accurate rendition
of "ME" and
my life that I have ever heard. It was like talking to someone who
knew my soul intimately and felt my fears
and doubts. It explained a lot of things to me that I sensed intuitively
but had never been able to quite put a finger on. And through, you,
Moses, I now have "hope." And that was something I had
begun to lose...my anchor, my rock...."hope." Thank you,
Moses, for not only allowing me to talk to you like a friend, but
also to "hear" my heart and to show me ways the future
can lead me to the destiny I seek."
Q:
"Do
I have to give you the places to investigate or can you
just recommend a place?"
Answer: It
is not necessary for you to let me know places that you
are considering, unless you are doing a 15-minute or
30-minute session, because the whole purpose of those
sessions is just for me to research a small number of
places that you are considering. With a session length
of 60 minutes or longer, I can find locations for you
that you do not prompt me with. However, I will always
start by looking at the places or regions that you suggest.
Generally,
longer sessions are strongly recommended because
we will have more time to discuss situations more
thoroughly and look at more places. The 60-minute session
is
usually
enough time for one individual interested in
either the US or
Canada. The 90-minute session is better for a
couple or family that wants to me to look at more than
just 2-3 places that they have already determined, or for
an individual looking at places that include international
locations.
I find it is extremely helpful to be able to talk
over the phone and discuss matters together.
Your questions are extremely important to both
of us, so the phone time will be well worth it.
If you are in the U.S. I will
place the call to you, so you will not have to pay any long-distance
charges. If you are outside the U.S., either you can call
me or we can use a free internet telephone service like
Skype.
The
session will begin with me asking you some questions
about places you have already lived.
This helps me verify the accuracy
of your birth time, helps me more fully understand
the patterns that you have lived with,
helps me to know you better, and provides
more
specific
context
for the rest of your session. Because
of this, the information I will be able to provide
for you
will be even more accurate. Here is a good, relevant
quote from Deepak Chopra in answering
a question on his message
board at www.Chopra.com:
"In
most cases, the best ... astrology readings are a collaborative
effort. As with other types of professional diagnosis,
if you are going to a professional to get insight and
help on a personal problem, the accuracy and quality
of advice will improve, the more you are willing to open
up and share additional information in a spirit of cooperation
and teamwork."
My
goal is to make sure you know the plusses and minuses
of any places you would consider moving to (or traveling
to, etc.). With this knowledge, you can investigate those
places and find out for yourself if what I tell you is
true. I never recommend that someone place all of his
or her faith in my professional opinion; rather, I hope
to arm you with self-knowledge that will allow you to
become more conscious of your experience in any given
place, and empower you to make more informed decisions.
I believe this knowledge is literally invaluable. Life
is short.
We
can either investigate particular cities or regions that
you are interested in, or I can search independently
for ideal areas. However, I always begin with the areas
that you want to look into first.
Some
locational astrologers place a considerable emphasis
on transits and progressions to the relocated natal chart.
Although I do think there is validity to that approach,
it is not my primary approach because to use it properly,
you might have to move every year. Additionally, you
can't avoid the transits or progressions to your natal
chart anyway. And because the natal chart is more primary
and more important than the relocated chart, you might
as well live in a location that makes all of your life
experiences better.
My
goal is to point out the permanent influences
for any given place, and to find a great longterm location
(or longterm locations) for you, because I find that
those permanent influences are far more significant
than the temporary transits to any given relocated chart.
My goal is to focus on the biggest and most important
influences that will be true throughout your life.
Some
locational astrologers believe the relocated natal chart
to be more important than the primary natal chart when
it comes to matters of house rulership, transits, etc.
I do not share this view. I do believe the relocated
natal chart is extraordinarily significant, but most
astrologers agree that all secondary techniques, such
as relocated charts, must always answer back to the primary
source, which is the natal birth chart. In my research,
this is true.
I
do not guarantee that I will provide any particular
number of most ideal places for you. Instead, I will
recommend any and all good or great locations
that we are able to discover for you in our time together,
with a realistic assessment of the positives and negatives
for each place. I have very high standards and try very
hard to find a truly exceptional location for you. I
am very picky, because I know you deserve the best. In
the vast majority of cases, I am able to find at least
one place that I can recommend very highly, and often
more than one.
A
funny story: I once did a locational astrology/astrocartography
session with someone who was initially looking in the
US. No matter what I did, I could not find anywhere in
the states that I felt comfortable recommending to this
person. After I told the person this, they said, "You
know, that's funny, because I never felt like I belonged
in this country anyway." We then found some international
locations that looked and felt much better to this particular
client. This was a very unusual case, but it's not unusual
to find just 1-3 locations in the U.S. that I can highly
recommend.
I
can make some comments about what may be good times to
move if you are interested, but what I feel is much more
important
is
understanding
the
permanent influences in any given location. If you find
an excellent longterm place to live, then the timing
of when you move there is a relatively minor consideration,
in my opinion--although there may be some exceptions
to this rule. Still, the important thing is truly finding
the best
spot and moving there, period. You want to find
someone that can do the best job of doing the most important
thing the most accurately: understanding the totality
of your likely experience in any given place. To do this
very well requires a breadth and depth of methods and
experience.
Note:
To do locational astrology properly, you must have an
accurate birth time. If you are not sure about your birth
time to within at least about 15 minutes of accuracy,
then I would not suggest being very cautious about having
anyone look at these influences for you, because there
is too
much
margin
for error. However, there are some techniques that do
not require an accurate birth time, and these can be
well worth investigating, with the warning that since
we will only be seeing part of the picture, the accuracy
of the information cannot be as high. Nonetheless, some
information is much better than none, in my opinion,
and this can at least suggest some good leads.
After
sending your payment, please visit
this page for futher instructions and please
contact me by email (and if that bounces back email
me at mosesmerlin@hotmail.com) and let me know your birth
date, time, place, and source of birth
time
(birth
cert.,
mother's
memory, astrologer's rectification, etc.), as well as
any locations you would like to look into, the places
that you have lived previously including the years you
were there (anywhere you've lived for at least a month
or two) and a brief mention of the positives and
negatives
for
you in these places. Also let me know what, if anything,
you are mainly looking for in a place, and any areas
of particular concern or interest to you, such as goals.
Please see the cost scale above to see how many locations
we
can
generally cover during your session. In a 60 or 90-minute
session, we can usually cover a lot of territory.
I'll
get back to you, almost always within 72 hours, to
set up your appointment time. Appointments can generally
be scheduled within two to three weeks of my receipt
of your payment. I will make
a tape or CD recording of your session and send it to
you afterwards.
Note:
I will not conduct all of the research for your locational
questions before we speak (although I do look at a number
of things before we speak). Usually, most of the work
is done while we are on the phone together, so that I
can speak with
you
as we go and check with you about various things that
might come up (for example, "Do you have any interest
in living in the middle of nowhere in Maine," or, "Does
a place that's good for everything but having a big social
network work for you?"). If I felt it was at all
necessary to do more work ahead of time, I certainly
would do
it; I
don't
take
my responsibility
as an astrologer at all lightly. For example, I prepare
for around 60 minutes before a "normal," or
non-locational astrology session, because I feel it is
important to do so, in order to see everything that's
going on in your charts. But your locational astrology
influences can be seen relatively quickly.
One
question I am frequently asked is if I can recommend
one location over another in the same geographic region
using locational astrology; for example, San Diego or
Los Angeles? In most (though not all) cases there will
be a noticeable difference, but I can't know for sure
until I take a look for you. I'll give you a personal
example. I live in Prescott, AZ, which is a little more
than 50 miles north of Phoenix or Scottsdale, AZ. I have
a tough Moon-Pluto paran line (this is not the traditional
major astrocartography line, although it is a Jim Lewis
technique) running East-to-West through Phoenix that
I feel very powerfully
whenever
I am down
there,
but I don't feel up here in Prescott. So
even though the astrocartography lines or locational
astrology charts are almost identical between these two
places, one location is still far superior to the other
for me.
Thanks
for reading this far! I really look forward to speaking
with you and helping you find out where some of your
best (and worst) places are likely to be. That knowledge
can be truly invaluable.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I can take your credit
card info over the phone if you would rather pay that way.
