Welcome to NorthPoint Astrology
The
Art and Science of Astrology
Astrology
is a symbolic system that offers both spiritual and practical guidance in support of the
chosen life path. As a science, astrology uses precise calculations of planetary
positions and relationships in the drawing of charts. As an art, it involves intuition
and perception in the interpretation of those charts as they relate to personal
experience.
Pam's interpretation of astrology is guided by her belief that there is order and
positive intention in the universe, that our lives have meaning beyond the physical, and
that tools such as astrology are given to us as gifts to facilitate our growth,
awareness and healing.

Before entering physical form, we made certain decisions about the circumstances into which we would be born, and the basic lessons and opportunities we wished to experience in the coming lifetime. We chose the time of our first breath based on those decisions -- the moment at which the planetary arrangement would energetically reflect our intentions.
An astrology chart is simply a drawing of the heavens at the time of that first breath. In Western astrology, we use a circle or "wheel" for the basic format. Within that circle are placed symbols that represent the planets, with each one shown at its exact position in the sky by sign, degree and minute.
The mathematical calculations required for drawing a chart were once done by hand -- but today computers are usually used, both to save time and to ensure accuracy. Once a chart is mapped, an astrologer uses both knowledge and intuition to interpret the patterns that are shown.
Your astrological chart, being drawn for the exact moment and location of your first breath, is unique to you. It shows your primary traits, potentials and challenges, path of growth and greater purpose.
The information revealed by your personal astrology chart can be used in many ways: to enhance personal and spiritual growth work, to help you align with your purpose, to shed light on patterns and challenges, and to find meaning and resolution in current events.
Astrology opens doorways to new perspectives and awareness, but perhaps its most valuable gifts are greater self-acceptance and self-appreciation. The understanding of oneself gained through astrology can be an important step on the road to greater growth, joy and fulfillment.
We are eternally growing spiritual beings with the power to direct and transform our lives. The insights gained through astrology can remind us of that truth, and put us increasingly in touch with the knowledge and guidance that is within.
Astrology's gift to us is the reminder that our lives have purpose, and that we are active partners in defining and creating the forms that best fulfill that purpose.
Pam's intention through her astrology work is to facilitate reconnection with a deeper level of self-knowledge and awareness, laying the groundwork for enhanced self-appreciation, a greater sense of purpose, and a stronger trust in the positive intention of the Universe.
