Alison Chester-Lambert has been passionate about astrology ever since she read Linda Goodman`s `Sunsigns`in the 1970`s. She finally took the plunge and became a professional astrologer in 1998.

Why Astrology?

Here is a little story I never tire of telling. I was working for an astrology telephone liveline when a call came through to me from a woman speaking from a maternity ward in a hospital. She told me that she had given birth to her baby the day before, but some tragic reason he died in her arms a few hours later. I could never imagine such pain. She gave me his birth details and asked me to tell her about her son.

Using his horoscope, I was able to tell her about his fiery temper, (she whispered he had red hair after I said this) about how he would never have shut up - he was such a talker, and how he would have loved computers. All the time I spoke about him my voice remained steady whilst tears poured down my cheeks. After 20 minutes the automated computer told us it was the end of the call, and she whispered "Thank you....you have given me my baby"........then the call ended.....

Training

Alison took the Certificate course at the Faculty of Astrology in London, followed by a further year at the Centre for Psychological Astrology in Regents College, London. She then worked for the astrology telephone lines of The Sun, News of the World and Sunday Times newspapers for over 2 years before moving from London to Tamworth in 2002. 

After spending two years at Staffordshire Collge in under graduate studies which included psychology, she then took a Masters Degree in Cultural Astronomy and Astrology at the University of Wales Trinity St David. Psychological Perspectives was one of the modules studied. Her final dissertation was handed in in 2014 and she was awarded a distinction.
