present format is under review at the 2020 FAA AGM this sponsorship may also need to reflect those changes. Thank you to those

We are all familiar with these much-quoted ‘Hallmarked’1 lines from William Blake’s Auguries of Innocence:

To see a World in a Grain of Sand

And a Heaven in a Wild Flower

Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand

And eternity in an hour

These four lines prepare the reader for Blake’s soulful poem, which explores the fragility, beauty and

paradoxes of life. The lines are not just wonderfully aesthetic but address a deeply resonant truth, not easily

explained or articulated; truth recognized by the soul, not the intellect. In these four lines, Blake reminds us

of a transcendent sight that sees through nature to other worlds. He evokes the mysteries of time and our

participation with it. We could make the case that within an hour there is an infinite number of nanoseconds

and attoseconds, but this would probably be the ever restless mind trying to come to terms with the poetic

images in a securely sensible way. However, there is another way: Blake invites us to imagine....

MULTIPLE RELATIONSHIPSA multiple relationship occurs when a counselling astrologer is in a professional role with a person and...

1) at the same time is in another role with the same person eg friend, lecturer

2) at the same time is in a relationship with a person closely associated with or related to a person whom the astrologer has a professional relationship, eg employer, carer, mother

3) promises to enter another relationship in the future with the person or person closely associated with and/or related to the person

ETHICAL SOLUTIONA counselling astrologer should refrain from entering into a multiple relationship if the multiple relationship could reasonably be expected to impair the astrologer’s objectivity, competence, or effectiveness in performing his or her functions as a counselling astroloer, or otherwise risks exploitation or harm to the person with whom the professional relationship exists.

MULTIPLE RELATIONS | Consultation barriers

our aim is to include a regular column so we

can all gain from sharing experiences

and discussing ethical decisions

for best practice

Counselling astrologers can frequently find themselves faced with multiple relationships, or the potential for them, in the course of their professional lives, which can present some challenging ethical dilemmas.
