Arthur Blackwood, based in Portland, Oregon, is a consultant and botanist with a lifelong fascination with the intersection of astrology and healing. My interest in this field stems from a profound personal loss. My mother, battling a chronic illness, sought various treatments, but conventional medicine often failed to provide lasting relief. Witnessing her struggles sparked a quest for alternative paths to healing, which eventually led me to the study of Medical Astrology and the profound synergy between herbs, planets, and the human body.
My approach is rooted in rigorous research and an understanding of traditional practices. My studies led me deep into the rich tapestry of astrological symbolism and the healing properties of plants. I believe in a methodical and analytical approach, combining astrological insights with herbalism, providing evidence-based counsel. My side occupation as a botanist allows me to observe the rhythms of nature and understand how they apply to the healing arts. My writings are meticulously researched, offering a grounded perspective on these complex topics.
My ultimate goal is to offer clients a balanced perspective, merging the ancient wisdom of astrology with contemporary insights into holistic health. Through my consulting work, I aim to equip my clients with the tools they need to take charge of their well-being. My botanical knowledge provides a unique lens through which to explore the healing properties of the natural world.
