Jessica Murray trained as a fine artist before graduating in 1973 from Brown University, where she studied traditional psychology and linguistics. After a stint in political theatre, Jessica began a study of metaphysics and has been practicing and teaching astrology in San Francisco for thirty years.
A frequent contributor to The Mountain Astrologer, Psychic & Spirit Magazine, and other publications, Jessica's recent writing focuses upon macro-transits as they manifest in current global events, and upon the disappearance and the re-emergence of lunar astrology. She is currently writing a book on the planet Pluto.
"A common misconception is that modern astrology makes predictions. In fact, centuries ago astrologers did, and some schools of astrology still do; most notably in those societies such as India where the predominating world view follows a more fatalistic bent. It is psychology, however, rather than divination, that underlies most contemporary astrology in the West."
In this interview I asked Jessica about what astrology is, why visit an astrologer, how does astrology today compare to traditional astrology of the past; and about the most common things that come up in an astrological reading. I hope you will enjoy our conversation.
Listen to: Interview with Jessica Murray - USA astrologer
- Jessica, astrology as a discipline, if not a science, has existed for 1000’s of years. Why do people today visit an astrologer, and what can they expect from an astrology reading?
- On your web site, http://www.mothersky.com/, you say that you offer humanistic astrology? What is humanistic astrology?
- How does today's psychologically-oriented astrology differ from
medieval and "traditional" astrology?
- We can say that Astrology is about forecasting the future. Our listeners would be interested in whether there's psychic pick-up in an astrological reading?
- Jessica, you have been an astrologer, and you teach astrology for more than 30 years, what are the most common things that come up in a reading? And how do you try to address them?
- Finally Jessica, one thing that life has taught you?
Look forward to speaking to you again soon.
