I strongly recommend/prefer a brief conversation before booking an appointment with potential clients. It's important to feel comfortable with the person who you are working with.

Be sure to ask for the long form or original document, which includes the birth time.

Here's what some clients have said:

"Dear Shelley:
I hardly know where to start in all I want/need to say to you, You are so insightful, and I have listened again and again to your words.

Already I've seen so many things I didn't put together before. I feel relieved and I look forward to another reading with you.

Thank you for your guidance."
~ L.D.N.


"Dear Shelley:
A few months ago, (after seeing you mentioned in the NY Post) I called for a reading. What a difference you made to my life!

I arrived nervous, with tread and money worries. I left strangely at peace, but filled with thoughts about the past and future in dimensions I had never considered before.  I also felt a new sense of relationship with my immediate family and larger family. 
It was a remarkable experience!  Maybe healing at work.

One of my major concerns was Saturn--and you explained the effect it might have.  What was helpful was that you said Saturn was fair. I've kept it in mind the last few months and it's given me encouragement where once I was despondent. I've returned to writing in the evenings and weekends. Though at first difficult, it's gotten easier as, in some way, I feel karma at my back helping me forward. Doors have begun to open. I found a website for writers (zoetrope.com) and I've been working in it, developing relationships and getting encouraging feedback on my work.

A few nights ago, I was able to verbalize one key change effected by these experiences: once before I wanted to change the world; now I realize true success revolves around allowing the world to change me.

This is really to thank you for your amazing help in opening a new world for me."
~ Mr. R.Z.


"Shelley,
I just wanted to say THANK YOU again for your wonderful reading... it was so impactful (Is that a word? It is now!) -- I'm on my second listening of your tape... and I've just ordered The Artists Way. I spoke at length with my mother last night and got some more amazing stories including, probably no surprise to you, the confirmation that my father did leave us to go off to war when I was 9 months old...and some other very interesting stuff that will could make a terrific story... The (real) work begins...
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'll be back in touch when I've done enough "homework" to warrant another reading, may the universe bring YOU karmic relief!
p.s. great website!" ~ M.R.


"EVERYTHING...I MEAN EVERYTHING she said in my reading last spring has come to fruition. I think at the time of my reading, a lot wasn't clear - but believe you me, holeeeeee crow!!! This fall I was blown away...Some heavy, heavy stuff...but I'm telling you - she called it.  I'm gonna go back to her around the time of my birthday for an update. Ironically, she had said my bday this year coincided with 'fertility' or giving birth to something, and it looks like our CD will be hatching right around then (2/21). She so rocks!" ~ K.R.

"Your work makes a 'holy place' where people discover themselves and each other." ~Sister Peggy

"The tapes of our sessions with you have arrived--thank you so much! Both Anastasia and I have felt such a boost to our morale from our time with you. It was incredibly helpful." ~ K. G., Singapore

"From now on I want YOU to direct my way on this path." ~ V.S.L.

"Thank you. Last night this time I was listening to the tape and I must admit that I was almost as overcome by emotion as the afternoon you gave me the reading. I particularly was touched by your sincerity, your caring, your openness as a fellow human being as well as my astrologer. This reading was a very powerful event for me as I sit here still feeling strong emotions. What can I say? Just that I'm very glad I was smart enough to sit with you. I haven't done all my homework yet.....but I'll get to it. ~ M.W. NYC

"Thank you! Your reading was wonderfully affirming for me and I am truly grateful. I wanted to send you this note to let you know you were on target there. Thanks again, and I look forward to seeing you again soon". ~ Ellen

"Thank you for the extra time you spent with me and the many resources you gave me to explore. You're an engaging speaker and I look forward to taking more of your workshops." ~ F.T.

"Just wanted to thank you again for a great reading. I got so much out of our session, and certainly a lot to think about ... You're the best!" ~ D.C., Long Island

"They (my boss and the recipient) were very pleased and my bosses wife expressed interest in doing a reading with you so I will try and set that up in the near future". Tell your clients: 
"Shelley's personalized astrological charts are incredible work of art was a GIANT success. It was informative, enlightening and a wonder to behold. In addition to
being an unusual, one-of-a-kind gift your work is thoughtful and thought provoking."
-K.F.
