Bernie Ashman has been a professional astrologer for almost thirty years, having discovered his passion for astrology while reading Dane Rudyhar's Astrology of Personality. Since that time, his astrology practice has expanded to include writing, lecturing, and counseling clients from all over the world. He is now a recognized authority in the astrology field, and his writings have earned accolades from his readers and peers alike.

"I see astrology as a wonderful blueprint in assisting individuals to more clearly define their life choices," says Ashman, and his person-centered approach to astrology has made him a favorite with his readers. Ashman is known for his ability to make even the most complex topics accessible to the novice astrologer.

Ashman is the author of SignMates: Understanding the Games People Play (Llewellyn, 2000), Astrological Games People Play (ACS, 1987), and Roadmap to Your Future (ACS, 1994, reprinted by American Federation of Astrologers, 2000).
