Catharine J Anderson (Cat)
I am an Evolutionary Astrologer, editor, and writer dedicated to exploring metaphysical subjects, consciousness, and the timeless evolution of the human soul. Since 2022, I have shared regular essays, long-form deep dives, and reflective analyses on these archetypal patterns through my Substack publication, Ancient Wisdom.
My work bridges ancient metaphysics with modern psychological insights, offering advanced practitioners and curious seekers alike a framework for understanding reincarnation and the fundamental "why" of existence.
Roots in Evolutionary Astrology
My foundational approach to the natal chart was forged through direct study under the pioneers of the Evolutionary Astrology (EA) paradigm. I studied extensively under both Jeffrey Wolf Green, the founder of modern Evolutionary Astrology, and Starlady Kim Marie, the Director of the Evolutionary Astrology Network, (based upon the Jeffrey Wolf Green method).
Through their rigorous lineage, I learned to view the natal chart not as a rigid set of limitations, but as a dynamic map of the soul's intent, tracking its karmic history and evolutionary trajectory from lifetime to lifetime.
Editorial Contributions & Publications
Beyond my personal research and writing, I have spent years working behind the scenes to help preserve, clarify, and expand the core texts of the EA community. My editorial and collaborative contributions include:
- Core Text Contributions: I contributed directly to several seminal books by Jeffrey Wolf Green, including Neptune: Whispers from Eternity, Medical Astrology, and the definitive EA Glossary.
- The Journal of Evolutionary Astrology: Driven by a vision to create a collaborative, high-caliber resource for the community, I brought the Journal of Evolutionary Astrology to life. I served as an editor and authored the introduction for this comprehensive compilation, which unites 25 professional astrologers from around the globe to present advanced case studies based on Green’s teachings.
