Not at all. My use of Hellenistic and ancient techniques is simply to showcase transparency about the depth and caliber of the tools I use. They are my tools; my job is to translate their complex language into clear, practical, and empowering guidance for you. No prior astrological knowledge is necessary.

Beyond providing your accurate birth data via the intake form, your most important preparation is to identify your focus. Please use the form to detail 1 to 3 specific questions or themes (e.g., relationship dynamics, career pivot, creative block) you wish to focus on. This crucial step ensures I can dedicate the significant in-depth preparation time mentioned in the policy specifically to your needs, maximizing the value of our session.

The session lengths are designed to accommodate a range of needs and schedules:

• 30-Minute Check-in (Speedrun): Best for a quick, pressing question or addressing immediate planetary weather.

• 60-Minute Sessions (Standard): Excellent for either a solid foundational reading (Initial) or a comprehensive map of your year ahead (Check-in).

• 90-Minute Sessions (Long): Ideal for multi-layered strategy and thorough examination. The extended time allows us to tackle intricate patterns and dive into multiple life areas in-depth.

In short: the longer the session, the more complexity and detailed strategy we can cover.

For a first consultation, I strongly recommend the Initial Consultation to establish a clear astrological foundation and working relationship between us.

The process is straightforward:

1. Payment & Invoice: Once your payment is processed, you'll receive an invoice. Please ensure you provide a working email address during checkout.

2. Intake Form: I will send you an intake form (via Google Forms) to that email. This is paramount for gathering your birth data and for you to specify any particular questions or themes you want to focus on.

   • Timeline: The form is typically sent within 24 hours (Monday–Thursday), but may take up to 72 hours if payment is completed over a Friday–Sunday weekend.

3. Scheduling & Link: Once your intake form is complete, I will send you the Google Meet link for our scheduled session within 24 hours.

Please note: I cannot conduct the consultation unless your accurate birth data is submitted in advance via the form.

For first-time clients, the Initial Consultation is highly recommended. This foundational session maps out the core strengths and challenges of your natal chart, giving us a clear, stable context for any future work.

While a Check-in (Forecasting) is possible for a first session, the time dedicated to your natal chart foundation will be considerably shorter and more superficial. The Check-in sessions are generally more advantageous for return clients who already have a baseline understanding of their chart and want to focus purely on future predictions and timing strategy.

To honor the in-depth preparation required for your chart, the following policies are strictly enforced:

• Advance Booking: All appointments must be booked at least 48 hours in advance.

• Rescheduling/Cancellation: You must provide at least 24 hours' notice prior to your scheduled start time to be eligible for a full refund or to apply your payment to a future session.

• Non-Refundable: Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice are non-refundable.

• No-Shows: No-shows are non-refundable.

• Late Intake Form: If your necessary intake form (with birth data) is not received in enough time to meet the 48-hour advance booking window, your purchase will be automatically refunded. Refunds typically take 3–5 business days to process.

The majority of consultations are conducted online over Google Meet. This ensures flexibility and can accommodate a wide range of schedules and international time zones.

In special, pre-arranged cases, I may be able to organize an in-person consultation if you are located in the London area.
