An astrology reading can help you understand yourself better and help you determine what your life may hold in store for you. A detailed reading of your chart can point out characteristics that you should improve to try to live a more balanced life. Readings can also help strengthen relationships through better understanding of each other's astrological chart.

Things You'll Need:

    Have an Astrology Reading

  1. Step 1

    Decide what kind of reading you want to have. A basic reading can be done over the phone or in person using just your birthdate. A more complex reading requires information like your exact birth time and location, but will offer more in-depth advice and understanding of your life and relationships.

  2. Step 2

    Find a person to do your reading. You have many options, including going to a psychic shop, calling a '1-900' number, buying an automated chart and interpretation online or contacting a person by email who will put together a reading personally. Each type of reading has its advantages, and you will need to decide if you want quick advice or want to wait for a 300-page tome of your life and destiny.

  3. Step 3

    Decide on a price before the person starts a reading. Discuss what is included and how deep the interpretation will be before the reading starts. You may run into a situation where you receive only a basic reading and must pay more to get any real interpretation.

  4. Step 4

    Ask questions. If you are doing a reading by phone or in person, ask as many questions as you want. Many times, a reading can help clarify a situation that is going on in your life and just discussing the possibilities can shed new light on a person, event or situation.

  5. Step 5

    Relax. There is no reason to stress during or after a reading. While an astrology reading is meant to offer insight on your personality and your life, it is not meant to determine or change your future. If something turns up in your reading that you don't like, see it as a new awareness of a trait or action that you need to improve or avoid.

  6. Step 6

    Test out a reading on Astrology.com if you are feeling nervous or skeptical (see Resources below). If the sample readings you receive online prove to be something you wish to explore, then contact a professional.

Tips & Warnings
  • Astrology is not a proven science, so be wary of basing your life on an astrological reading.

on 5/27/2008 In addition to the above, one should also have a reasonable uderstanding of what astrology is about and what it can do. A personalised astrology reading can help one take advantage of good periods and reduce the effects of bad periods in life. Such a reading can also provide remedial recommendations, to overcome potential astrological problems.

I have found www.powerfortunes.com/astrology2.html to be an excellent resource that explains the beliefs behind astrology, the different forms of astrology and types of readings that one can have performed.
