Patricia Godden

After obtaining a first class honours degree in physiology and biochemistry, I went on to complete a doctorate in the purification, analysis and measurement of hormones. This led on to further academic research in metabolic hormones and then mechanisms of chemical carcinogenesis, which was pursued in industrial research. I then worked on the registration of new drugs for a pharmaceutical company in Germany for ten years. On returning to England, I retrained as a reflexologist and had a busy practice on the Isle of Wight. During this time, I gained much experience in dealing with the complex problems that people face: physical, emotional and social.

Over the course of about 20 years, I had become increasingly interested in spirituality and the deeper meaning of life. Experiences during meditation showed a deeper level of consciousness that helped in everyday life. I began to study esoteric astrology with the White Eagle School of Astrology in 2004, qualifying with a diploma in 2007. I am a fellow of the Association of Professional Astrologers International.

I have now written three books. The first, Astrology, Crystals and Spirituality, links the energy of each planet in each sign with a crystal. The connections were determined intuitively. Holding the crystal that corresponds with a planetary placement can help a person to strengthen appreciation of the lessons to be learned from that position of the planet. The second book, Housing Your Planets, looks at the planetary energies in the astrological houses. This includes everyday interpretations at the physical, emotional and mental levels of life as well as spiritual perspectives and thoughts about what the soul may be learning from life’s experiences. The most recent book, Seeking the Soul: Through Meditations on Draconic Astrology, will be published in April 2023. It describes meditations on the draconic level of the planets and signs of the zodiac. Paintings from the meditations are included in the book as they help people to get a deeper insight into the profound meaning of this level of astrology.

My aim as a professional astrologer is to help clients understand what is going on in their lives and how to work with current circumstances. I also give talks on astrology and teach the subject both via Zoom and face-to-face.
