Unlocking Insights: How Astrology Enhances Parenting and Personal Growth
Hello! My name is Martin Sarmiento. I am 38 years old, born in Buenos Aires into a large family with my mother, father, and eight siblings. Growing up in such a dynamic household exposed me to many personalities and ways of being. I have navigated several family crises, unearthed family secrets, and experienced both anger and reconciliation. Over time, I have transformed my relationship with my family of origin, although I continue to peel back layers of this complex onion.
I have been a father to Abril for 11 years and Ivan for 9 years. They are two magical beings, born out of the infinite love I have for their mother, Violeta, who remains my partner to this day.
Raising children has been the most transformative, challenging, and rewarding task of my life. There have been moments when life pushed me beyond my known limits. During those times, I turned to astrology for guidance, first as a client and later as a student.
Professionally, I am a perpetual student who has explored various teachings and schools of thought. In addition to studying astrology for 7 years, I have taken courses in Jungian psychology, Chakras, Kybalion, Kabbalah, and Tarot. My curiosity and observation of the personalities and ways of being in my environment have always driven me. I am deeply interested in understanding the profound purpose of our existence. I have sought various kinds of knowledge to satisfy this quest.
Currently, through a synthesis of my natural gifts, my astrological and esoteric studies, and my personal experiences, I aim to assist others in finding solutions to their life’s challenges and accessing the vital answers within themselves.
How Can Psychological Astrology Help Parents Who Are Stuck, Struggling and Lost
For parents facing difficulties in raising children and managing life, I believe astrology can offer a new perspective on their lives and those of their children.
Psychological astrology invites us to understand our natal chart as a map of our being, containing all our psycho-energetic information.
My initial approach with a parent experiencing difficulties involves conducting a reading of their natal chart. This offers a fresh perspective on their personality, deep motivations, areas for development, and emotional patterns. The natal chart reveals the big picture of our being and can guide us on the path of healing and transformation.
Once we identify the most significant psychological aspects of the natal chart, we can proceed with a second approach. We analyse the parent’s current life situation and available energy. This includes examining active conflicts, harmonious processes, and supportive resources.
Astrology in motion, through techniques like transits, solar returns, and secondary progressions, helps us understand the issues in our lives and the profound meaning of each active process. It enables us to see our current circumstances objectively and make conscious decisions and strategies to face challenges more effectively.
What Are the Benefits of Astrology When Looking at a Child’s Chart?
Psychological Astrology is powerful in helping us understand our children and assist them in unfolding their nature.
Through synastry, which compares the parent’s natal chart with that of their child, we can see the relationship between them. This reveals points of tension, points of harmony, and the profound teachings this bond brings.
Using astrology helps us gain a complete understanding of ourselves and our children. This approach supports individuals seeking self-discovery by identifying key areas for exploration in their own and their children’s lives. It provides the insights needed to lead a life that aligns more closely with their true nature, promoting overall well-being.
