-- As astrologer Louise Edington approaches nearly 15 years in business, she is launching the seventh edition of her Venus Retrograde Heroine’s Journey, a program timed to coincide with the astrological event in October 2026. Based in Utah and serving a global client base, Edington offers astrology as a tool for self-understanding, transformation, and conscious living. Her work reflects more than 40 years of practice and a mission to help individuals engage with astrology as a living language that supports personal evolution.
“Astrology is a deep tool of self-understanding,” she says. “People can become their own astrologers.”
The upcoming program centers on the October 2026 Venus retrograde cycle, which begins in early October and unfolds over several weeks. Edington’s program is structured as a seven-week immersive journey that guides participants through this period of reflection and transformation. It includes live sessions, pre-work materials, and ongoing community engagement, creating a container for deep personal exploration. “This is the seventh time I have offered this journey,” she says. “Each iteration has gone deeper. This one goes to the root.”
According to Edington, the Heroine’s Journey draws on mythological and symbolic frameworks, including the descent and return archetype often associated with Persephone, Demeter, and Hades. She uses these narratives as experiential maps rather than abstract concepts, guiding participants through what she describes as a threshold moment. “You are at a real point of no return where the old version of you no longer fits,” she explains, emphasizing that the work is designed to be lived and embodied rather than observed.
Edington formally established her business after relocating from England to Utah, building on decades of prior study and client work. Her early foundation in traditional astrology has evolved into a more integrated practice that combines technical knowledge with intuitive and experiential approaches. This evolution reflects her belief that astrology must move beyond rigid interpretation frameworks. “We are both intuitive and rational,” she says. “We have been missing the intuitive side.”
Her philosophy positions astrology as a co-creative system rather than a deterministic one. Edington emphasizes that planetary movements do not dictate outcomes, but instead offer insight into patterns and possibilities. “The planets impel, they do not compel,” she says. “It is how we respond that matters.” This perspective has become a defining feature of her work and has contributed to her ability to attract a diverse and international audience.
Over the past 15 years, Edington has conducted thousands of client sessions and developed a strong global following through her teaching, writing, and speaking. Her Venus Retrograde program alone has guided hundreds of participants since its inception in 2017, with many returning for multiple cycles as the experience evolves over time.
During this period, she notes that astrology has seen a notable increase in mainstream interest, particularly among individuals seeking tools for clarity, resilience, and self-awareness. Edington highlights the multidimensional nature of astrology, noting that identity extends far beyond simplified interpretations. “Sun signs tell you a bit of the story,” she says. “We all have a moon sign, a rising sign, and all the planets in our chart are parts of us.”
Her work also reflects a broader effort to shift the language of astrology toward empowerment and integration. Edington advocates for a perspective that emphasizes relationship, intuition, and personal responsibility. She believes this approach allows individuals to engage more fully with their lives and experiences. “I want my clients to feel really seen and understood,” she says. “Then they take that within themselves and have a sense of deep acceptance.”
Looking ahead, Edington plans to expand her educational offerings, including the development of an astrology school that reflects her experiential and intuitive approach. She aims to train a new generation of practitioners who can carry this perspective forward while continuing to grow her global reach through workshops, programs, and written work.
As she approaches this milestone, Edington remains focused on deepening the impact of her work while responding to sustained demand for her programs. The continued success of the Venus Retrograde Heroine’s Journey reflects both the cyclical nature of astrology and the increasing interest in personal transformation. “The future of astrology lies in reclaiming its essence as a living language,” she says. “The planets are always speaking. The question is whether we are ready to listen.”
