In 2014 Eric decided to take his astrology practice to the web, and created Your Personal Astrologer.
Eric’s Approach to Astrology
With his background, Eric looks at astrology as the answer to the mystery of human development and experience. This is something that the more modern discipline of psychology cannot answer. Through the years Eric has found that combination of modern and medieval techniques allows the stars to illuminate the past, the present, and the future. The idea of astrology being able to predict future events has been a hotly debated topic among astrologers, with the majority of practice focusing on the psycho-analysis of the individual. Eric believes that while a psychological foundation assists in understand the energy of a situation or individual, it is prediction that allows individuals to prepare their futures through planetary analysis.
