What a reading with Bernie is like
Psychological astrology, in the Liz Greene / Jungian lineage, treats the chart as a map of unconscious patterns becoming conscious. Bernie works dialogically, often returning to specific natal aspects across multiple sessions as material surfaces — closer to a depth-oriented consulting practice than a single-session read.

Is Bernie Ashman a psychic?
No. Bernie is a credentialed astrologer who reads charts using technical methods taught at NCGR Certified. There's no claim to clairvoyance, mediumship, or per-minute intuitive consultation. Astrology is a structured interpretive practice — it's closer to depth-oriented consulting than to a psychic reading.
