Views
Ostaro practices a Chaldean system of astrology, a very ancient system which takes into account planetary indications in conjunction with numerological implications. His philosophy is Eastern while his approach to problem solving is Western. These two factors contribute largely to the depth of his knowledge and insight into human nature as he helps his clients overcome their obstacles and thus become more successful in achieving their goals.
