About us

Hi, I’m Penny Walters. I’m an Astrologer, Change Consultant and Learning Experience Designer. I show spiritually open people, like you, how to purposefully create positive change in your business and life.

I believe that astrology is a powerful tool with endless creative and innovative possibilities. These range from strategic guidance for your business, to discovering your life purpose, to sparking creative inspiration for storytelling.

My diverse background includes 23+ years of practical astrology experience and 30+ years in adult learning. Combined with my writing experience, I am known for my ability to use stories to transform complex insights into the practical action steps you need.

As a passionate creative with a background in film, TV and radio, I am also the founder of The Stars Behind The Stars. This is where I use celebrity case studies to demonstrate how the stories contained in a birth chart can play out. This provides an accessible way for us to learn about ourselves through some famous events.

Outside of my work, creativity and learning bring me joy. I’ve completed courses in everything from screenwriting to graphic design to photography. I also enjoy running and have completed 3 half marathons.

My motivations as an astrologer

Penny is driven to provide guidance to clients who seek clarification about their own life experience. She is dedicated to offering profound insights that can only be revealed through astrology. Penny’s approach sees astrology being used as a practical tool for healing, growth and navigating through life’s complexities.

Penny believes that our encounters and experiences are not mere coincidences, rather part of a deliberate journey mapped out for us at the moment of our birth. Every challenge we face in life offers a gift and lesson to us, if we are open to recognising and embracing it. With her expertise, Penny deciphers your birth chart to reveal actionable insights that can guide your life’s path.

What our clients say

I received so much clarity from my reading with Penny. It has given me a renewed sense of understanding about my life, my journey, what I’m here to do and what I’m here to overcome and learn. I feel like I have a road map for my life through understanding myself via Penny’s astrology reading. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting to navigate a more purposeful path.

Sonja, Melbourne

I had an insightful birth chart reading with Penny. She is passionate and clear in her communication and has a very calming influence. She gave me insights into motherhood (including knowing exactly the day my twins would be born), my business and relationships. I found it really helpful and beneficial. I would definitely recommend Penny to anyone looking for clarity and momentum for the future.

Laura, Sydney

If you’ve ever doubted the relevance of astrology, you have to get a reading with Penny! My reading was full of ‘ah-ha’ moments as she led me through my birth chart, giving me insights into my most entrenched patterns and behaviours. Loads of laughs and a few cringes! I came away with pages of notes and a checklist of really tangible things that I can (and need to) do to let go of habits that have been holding me back, and move towards my goals. Thanks, Penny!!
