Developmental Coaching
We all understand there are huge benefits to having a coach, such as being in synch with your values, developing strategies for personal success, creating more meaningful relationships, and aligning with your purpose. Success with these aspects of your being brings about more internal harmony, which results in greater personal clarity, confidence, and a more fulfilled life.
Coaches will use various tools to facilitate the coaching process: listening, questioning, clarifying, challenging, encouraging, and reinforcing while checking and monitoring. All of these are designed to help you, and they do. Crafting specific goals is essential to the process. This is often the hardest part for you. Often, you have a goal, yet clarifying and articulating it, can be extremely difficult. Effective coaches are very good at assisting with this process, yet does it provide the focus where it may be needed? I hope the following provides insight into a powerful combined alternative.
How would you feel if you could pinpoint, at any time, where your life energies were best placed?
Developmental Coaching uses astrology that allows for your unfolding self and pinpoints that time, specifically. at any point in time. The horoscope reveals what universal energies you have available and what you may need to develop to maximise your potential. In addition, it can identify the exact timeframes for this development to take place. Although other ‘alternative’ disciplines are very good, astrology is the only discipline that provides direction with timing. Nothing else does. This is tremendously potent information for you. This means you can design specific objectives based on universal principles to build strategies for success while focusing on your desired outcome for the development required at the time. In other words, how to get the most out of your circumstances and life.
The challenge of being successful and fulfilled.
What becomes important is whether you are in sync with your developmental needs or focussing on what you think you want. There is a big difference. Some folk look beyond what is and ask about the meaning of their lives. As such, they tend to gravitate to activities that, although maybe challenging, allow them to become more well-rounded and complete. Astrological coaching can help you navigate through the noise!
One of the biggest challenges occurs if you want, for example, to focus on your dream of building a business. Yet, the horoscope clearly shows that you are facing significant relationship issues. Your whole value system is changing. For a whole range of reasons, you may not be in sync with this and feel as if you are swimming against the tide, putting valuable energy into activities that don’t yield your desired results. It is probably a question of timing, or is something else inhibiting your dream?
Life is far too short to guess what, when, and how you can take action and develop; your horoscope is the key.
You may think the above discussion supports those who say life is fated and we have no choice. Not so. You can act as the alchemist of your life and make significant changes to turn your base metal into gold, or you can choose not to. Choosing not to make a change may look like taking the familiar (pattern-entrained) way out. Remember that no decision is still a decision!
Of course, the result is that if you keep doing the same, you keep getting the same result. Choosing growth will, sometimes, set you up for challenging times. Coaching with an experienced coach can help in letting go of the old and creating space for the new, which is confronting for most, no matter how welcome the change might be. Success usually comes after considerable application. Even for the good stuff! Making successful change temporarily is one thing, yet integrating it into the person’s personality and core is quite different. It takes time, commitment, and a genuine desire to evolve.
My most significant learning is the power behind two seemingly simple cliché: go with the flow and be careful about what you ask for because you’re likely to get it! Going with the flow often looks and feels like you are doing the right thing; you have a sense you are on the right path, and consequently, there are minimal or no blockages, and often helping hands propel you forward. Being clear about what you ask for puts an enormous responsibility on you to articulate your goals clearly. Sometimes the results are bittersweet. Further, it teaches you to consider the consequences of any action, no matter how small. Be assured there are always consequences, some of which may be unintended. The timing of which will be reflected in the horoscope.
Development Coaching using astrology is specific, and two conversations take place to establish focus and understanding. The first identifies your internal dynamics and your current stage of growth, using the horoscope as a tool and setting the context for the second conversation about the coaching process.
