Frequently Asked Questions

​

Astrology

​

What is Medical Astrology? 

Medical Astrology is an ancient system that correlates planetary influences with the human body, organs, and physiological systems. As practiced by Hippocrates and Paracelsus, it offers a framework for understanding constitutional health patterns, disease tendencies, and optimal timing for healing.

How can astrology really help with health and healing? 

Astrology doesn't replace medicine — it complements it. Medical Astrology identifies constitutional vulnerabilities, stress patterns, and optimal healing windows that conventional diagnostics may miss. Combined with clinical training it becomes a powerful integrative tool.

What happens in a medical astrology reading with Virginia? 

Virginia combines her clinical background as a licensed acupuncturist and psychotherapist with her training in Medical Astrology to offer readings that go beyond personality insights — connecting your chart to your health, emotional patterns, life cycles, and transformation.

Is Medical Astrology a legitimate clinical tool? 

Medical Astrology has been practiced for over 2,000 years by physicians including Hippocrates and Paracelsus — widely considered the fathers of Western medicine. Today it is experiencing a renaissance as integrative practitioners seek frameworks that bridge the physical, energetic, and constitutional dimensions of health.

Healing Arts

​

What is holistic healing? 

Holistic healing treats the whole person — Body, Mind, and Spirit — rather than isolated symptoms. It addresses the root cause of imbalance using an integrative combination of modalities drawn from Eastern Medicine, Western Psychology, Energy Healing, and ancient wisdom traditions.

What is the difference between energy healing and vibrational medicine? 

Energy healing works directly with the body's biofield through practitioner-transmitted techniques like Reiki and IET. Vibrational medicine uses external frequencies — sound, light, electromagnetic, and subtle energy tools — to restore balance at a cellular and systemic level.

What is art therapy and how is it different from an art class? 

Art therapy is a clinically guided process that uses creative expression to access and heal emotional patterns, trauma, and subconscious material that words alone cannot reach. The focus is the process, not the product — no artistic experience required.
