Chaos Astrology

Articles on Astrology and Chaos

Chaos Astrology is an exploration into the fractal geometry of nature and the varied ways this principle operates within both psychological and physical levels of experience. We are witnessing a remarkable convergence of discoveries on the frontier of science that supports astrology's model of a living, evolving Universe and our place in it.

Chaos Astrology seeks to understand:

  • The interconnected nature of the Universe
  • The specific qualities that characterise moments in time
  • Living consciously and creatively with the Butterfly Effect and fractal cycles
