MEET CAROLYN. PLACIDUS ASTROLOGER, DUBLIN

Let's take a tour of your birth chart together...
About Carolyn McElwee, Placidus Astrologer, Blackrock

Welcome! I’m Carolyn McElwee, Placidus astrologer based in Blackrock, South Dublin.
Astrology is much more than just your sun sign! As a Libra sun, it wasn’t until I explored the placements of my Moon, Neptune, Venus, and Jupiter, in particular, that I truly understood myself. Our birth chart is a celestial map that offers deep insights into our personality, life path, and the challenges and opportunities we may face.
In my astrological readings, we’ll explore the importance of the North and South Node of the moon - known in Vedic astrology as disruptive, but transformative, Rahu and Ketu. This karmic axis will always draw to attention polarizing energy that needs to be balanced. In addition, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto in Western astrology are powerful planets through which we gain transformative understanding of life experiences.
Additionally, we’ll examine how asteroids and stars, when forming strong aspects to planets and luminaries, can further reveal unique gifts as well as challenges in your life. I love to shed light on both the light and shadow aspects of the astrology chart, empowering you to make informed choices and positive changes.
While my charts are drawn from Western Placidus Astrology, the teachings of Vic Di Cara Astrologer - including essential planetary dignity - have been invaluable. His focus on classical Tropical Vedic Astrology have provided me with a time honoured understanding of the planets, signs, and houses that are at the core of both astrological systems.
In addition to astrology, I am a Japanese Usui Reiki Master Teacher and a family and newborn photographer.
What To Expect From Your Astrology Reading In Dublin
Expect a comfortable, inviting space in my home where we’ll explore various aspects of your life, including career, relationships, creativity, home life, social activities, hidden impulses, hopes, and dreams. As well as doing birth chart readings, I also do relationship synastry readings and predictive astrology based on progressions and transits.
Rahu (North Node) reveals the soul’s hunger for worldly experiences, while Ketu (South Node) signifies the wisdom gained from past lives or experiences, guiding us towards spiritual liberation. Together, they map the karmic journey that unfolds throughout our lives, offering profound insights into our deepest desires and the lessons we are destined to learn.
