Rob explains his approach to identifying a chart’s “chairperson” (often the ascendant ruler) and reads April’s Western natal chart: Pisces sun, Cancer moon, Sagittarius rising, with Jupiter as chart ruler and the Moon in Cancer as a strong co-chair. He notes a “splash” chart pattern, strong water houses, and both rulers in the eighth house, linking her to deep transformation, mediumship, and helping others through grief and “dark night of the soul” experiences; April shares her daughter died by drowning and discusses homelessness and resilience. Rob highlights Chiron in her fifth house and discusses transits, including a recent Jupiter return and career/publishing expansion themes around 2027–2028. They close with ways to contact Rob and his weekly “Two Minute Tuesday” practice.Rob Dorgan is a certified yoga educator, international retreat facilitator, meditation teacher/devotee, and a practicing astrologer.
