Ira has this to say about her journey with astrology: “Astrology is one of the first languages I learned as a child and it has never ceased to surprise and delight me. Contrary to popular belief, it is a rich symbolic language which facilitates self-knowledge, personal empowerment and the exercise of free will. It allows us to step outside our programme - to become lucid in this dream, or hit "pause" in this virtual reality game we’re in - and decode it. It is precisely this mental shift which allows for greater freedom and conscious choice.“ “Millionaires don’t use astrology, billionaires do.” J.P.
