About the Author:

Gazing through astronomical telescopes in his early teens led Steven to begin exploring astrology. He received a B.A. in Religion in 1971 from the University of North Carolina, and shortly thereafter began to establish his astrological practice. His first book, The Inner Sky, was published in 1984 and was followed by The Changing Sky, The Night Speaks, The Book of Pluto, and the recently revised edition of Skymates, written with his wife, Jodie.

Steven is current Chair of the Advisory Council for Kepler College, an accredited astrologically-oriented university in Seattlle, Washington. Steven has written articles for most of the major American astrological journals, and has written the monthly astrology columns for Elle and Sassy magazines. In addition to innumerable appearances on radio and internet programs around the country, his work has been translated into several languages.

Now, one of the most popular astrologers on the conference circuit, Steven lectures throughout the United States, Mexico and Canada, although his primary focus is still on his private astrological practice.
