Carole Taylor

BA, MA, Fellow of the Faculty of Astrological Studies

I have been a professional astrologer since I gained my Diploma from the Faculty of Astrological Studies in 2000. I have an international client practice and have taught astrology at both beginner and advanced level to hundreds of students all over the world.

My approach is governed by a deep interest in myth, symbol, archetype and psychology, in particular the work of Carl Jung and James Hillman. I was a reflexologist for the Complementary Health Trust for several years, working with clients with immune-related illnesses, and still retain an ongoing interest in the field of complementary health and wellbeing.

I worked at the Faculty of Astrological Studies for 23 years, taking roles as Director of Studies, Summer School Organiser and Head of Classes, and teaching the Foundation and Diploma courses. I initiated its Online Classes programme, shaped its syllabus and contributed extensively to its course material. I was Vice-President for nine years and President for three, being awarded a lifetime Fellowship in 2012 for my contribution to the life of the school.

I have taught and lectured for other astrological organisations and schools, including the Mercury Internet School of Psychological Astrology, Heaven & Earth Workshops (with Brian Clark), Rod Chang’s Academy of Astrology, the Uranai Academy in Japan, and Aula Astrològica de Catalunya in Barcelona. I also speak at conferences on a wide range of subjects and have spoken at UAC, ASPAS in Portugal and the AA in Great Britain.

I hold an honours degree in Geography from the University of Cambridge and an MA (with distinction) in Myth, Cosmology and the Sacred from Canterbury Christ Church University. Since 2018, I have been a tutor on the MA in Cultural Astronomy and Astrology at the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David, teaching on the Sky & Psyche and the Researching Contemporary Cosmologies modules.

I am a member of the APAI.
