Astrologers in San Francisco — Verified Practitioners
The astrology scene in San Francisco
San Francisco's astrology community is shaped by one institution more than any other: the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness (PCC) program at CIIS, founded by Richard Tarnas. PCC's MA and PhD graduates have populated American astrology's archetypal-cosmology lineage for the past 25 years.
The Bay Area scene is more academically oriented, more archetypal and depth-psychological, and more integrative with therapy than most US cities. Several Bay Area astrologers are also licensed marriage and family therapists or licensed clinical social workers.
Where Bay Area astrologers practice
Practitioners who still see clients in person cluster in The Mission, Bernal Heights, and Noe Valley (newer evolutionary and depth-psychological); Berkeley and Oakland (academic, CIIS-affiliated); Marin (wellness-adjacent); and Sunnyvale, Fremont, and San Jose (Vedic).
How to find a good astrologer in San Francisco
Decide on tradition first — a CIIS-trained archetypal cosmologist and a Sunnyvale Jyotishi will give you almost completely different readings, and both can be excellent. Filter for credentials: CIIS PCC MA/PhD, ISAR CAP, NCGR Level III/IV, FCEA, BAVA/CVA, or recognised guru-lineage.
