Horoscope for 2023. What awaits us, according to the astrologer

If you slightly paraphrase the legendary saying, it will turn out: “Rely on an astrologer, but don’t make a mistake yourself.”

Astrology is an incredible world of self-knowledge and self-development. This time we are talking and studying the horoscope for 2023 with a professional astrologer Olga Shandrinova.

– Despite the fact that many are skeptical about astrology, they often still look at the last pages of magazines, where they print horoscopes for a month or a year. How do you feel about these predictions?

— Before I seriously studied astrology, I regularly looked at such forecasts in magazines. And I do it to this day, but for a different purpose. If earlier I tried to track the impact of such a forecast on my life, today I study such columns to see how the people who write this work. It uses not so much real astrological forecasts that professional astrologers work with, but rather emphasizes the characteristic features of the signs of the zodiac. So, for example, Virgos are often advised to be economical and accurate, Leos – to be in front of the public and not be shy about expressing themselves. This is the so-called “tabloid astrology”, with a real astrological forecast has little in common.

Tell us about your first experience with astrology?

– At school age, in the early 90s, a book about the signs of the zodiac fell into my hands. Learned it then by heart. Checked on acquaintances. Then the book disappeared, but interest remained. She returned to study at the age of 28. This, by the way, is an indicative age in astrology, the cycle of the Sun, when our inner needs manifest themselves outwardly. At 28, many begin to get involved in what is a deep need.

How did you get into astrology? Who are your teachers?

– I was not looking for a quick path, realizing that this is a serious discipline, and not “on the knee” courses. I was educated at the Moscow Academy of Astrology, where my teachers were Mikhail Levin, Olga Galankina, Tatyana Mityaeva. Later I discovered Konstantin Daragan. I consider him my main teacher. In my opinion, he is the best astrologer of our time.

– Tell us about the first experience when you decided to interpret the card to another person. Who was that?

— The first clients were close people. The family was skeptical. Friends stood in line, they were very interested. Surprisingly, my very first serious consultation for money was stunning in its results. I predicted to an unfamiliar woman moving to another country, meeting with her future husband. Moreover, she was already well over 40. And a year later I found out that she had moved to Europe and was getting married soon. It was a fantastic hit! It was then that I saw how astrology works.

— What information do you need from the customer in order to make a competent, detailed horoscope? Is it necessary to use the exact time and place of birth?

– For work, I need a date of birth, time and place. Ideally, when the time is accurate (from memory or a tag). I also need the dates of events from the past to check what worked in the forecast at the time of these events. This allows us to predict the future with great accuracy. If the time is unknown, you can still make detailed forecasts, in which case I rely on those methods that do not depend on the time of birth.

– There are a number of directions in astrology, for example, natal, horary, elective. Which one is closer to you?

— I love prognostication very much, in another way it is also called a solarium. Four forecasting methods are used simultaneously, solar is only one of them. The forecast is applicable to life, this is its value. You can immediately see the result when what is predicted happens in the specified periods. I also love horaries, this is the oldest and fastest way to get an answer to any question. I myself use it regularly when making decisions, when searching for things, with complex purchases.

– What are people most interested in – health, finances or relationships?

The most popular topic is relationships. With a spouse, children, bosses, friends. This is our base, results in other areas depend on it. Moreover, sometimes they come with one request, and leave with an understanding of the general context of their life, and he himself can answer all the questions that arise later.

— How often do you encounter a skeptical attitude towards astrology?

– It’s less and less lately. Skeptics are my favorite category. They are always methodical, logical and very smart. Convincing them that astrology works is a colossal job. My personal challenge. By the way, not a single skeptic has left me without deep respect for astrology. Astrology works. And the skeptics too. My task is only to show how it works.

– Surely in your practice there were also curious cases. Share the funniest ones.

– I don’t remember any bright curiosities right away. The other day there was a funny incident when I got into a conversation with a taxi driver, went with my daughter to a holiday. We discussed general topics, his work, my work. And already at the end, out of politeness, I asked his name, it turned out that his name was Mars. For the first time I met a person with such a cosmic name. If you recall the curious situations of other people, then I can’t share them without the permission of the person himself, even changing the name. Confidentiality at work is paramount.

– What is astrology powerless?

There are blind spots in astrology, that’s for sure. I can predict events in a person’s life, but I can’t always track his emotions, as it depends on many factors. For example, after parting with a loved one, we want to know how he feels towards us, what goals does he pursue with his silence? For such cases, I use tarot cards. They perfectly reveal issues of interpersonal relationships, but unlike astrology, they do not show specific events on specific dates.

– Taking this opportunity, I will ask you to make a horoscope for 2023 for all signs of the zodiac. Do you mind?

— Yes, I will be happy to tell you the main trends of the year for each sign of the zodiac.
