Hi there, I’m Azur!

My purpose in starting this website was primarily to cater to French-speakers because there were (arguably still are) so very few resources available in French about ancient traditions of astrology. Since then, I’ve also taken to writing on Substack exclusively in English, so if you’re strictly an English-speaker, subscribing there is a good way to keep up without being drowned in French content!

I’m an astrologer and astrology student. I consider those to go together by virtue of the nature of astrology, and I love that I’ll never be done learning within this field which has a rich history and never-ending possibilities in terms of research.

I’m an alumni of the Hellenistic Astrology Course by Chris Brennan, Bernadette Brady’s Star School, and have studied with a variety of recorded classes by Austin Coppock, Demetra George, Amaya Rourke and others. Among my favourite astrology books are Astronomica by Marcus Manilius, Star and Planet Combinations by Bernadette Brady, and The Archetypal Universe by Renn Butler.

I’m an animist and this informs my work and my approach to astrology. It is by no means required that you take the same approach to work with me, but I think it’s good to know regardless!

I’m hungry for a practice of astrology that reflects the diversity of our world. My approach is infused with my knowledge & interest in disability studies, queer studies and feminist theory, and supporting other marginalised people is in my top priorities.

I don’t think determinism is a synonym for being fatalistic, condemning us to inertia. I also don’t think astrology should mean essentialism, depolitisation or a reductive view of the world and its people. In any case, I try to make sure it isn’t the case in my practice.

For more information about my approach, including techniques I use, people who inspire me, etc, see this page.

I’m a member of the Association for Young Astrologers, and always curious and enthusiastic to get to know fellow astrologers.
