Age of Initiation

It’s a weird time to be starting to study and practice astrology at 35 years old. Like, that’s actually YOUNG to be initiated in the mystery traditions where I come from, and I haven’t even been initiated in them yet.

To me this particular discipline actually seems way MORE sensitive to life experience than anything else I’ve dabbled in, but the average practitioner age is a lot younger than me if the internet is any indication.

It’s clear and sensible to me what happened, though. The 20s are a great time to get into RECEIVING astrology, so there was an explosion of that when it became available online, but there weren’t enough astrologers to do all that astrology, so they had to do it themselves.
