Elena Prokunina - unique alloy of medicine, yoga, psychology and astrology

At its psychological consultation Elena will help you to get into those areas of your conscious and unconscious, which are not available to study separately by doctor, astrologer and psychologist.

What excites man the most? That's right — he himself!

Even external events and phenomena of interest to us, especially in terms of their impact on us and our reactions to them. These reactions, as well as the inner emotional and mental state depends on our nature due to specific, unique location of the planets in the birth chart and the attitudes that we have received from us important people and society. Often, we begin to act automatically, and also we think by hard pattern. Without even noticing, we drive ourselves into the maze of our facilities, which limit our ability to overshadow our discriminating mind (Skrt. Viveka). It is not possible to make a simple and correct decisions, leads to erroneous actions.

What is astro-psychology? How it can help you?

The foundation of astropsychology made ancient scholars — Plato, Thales, Aristotle. Their researches on the nature of the soul and the influence of the heavenly bodies were summarized in the works of Plato. In the twentieth century, Karl Yung, the founder of analytical psychology, deeply worked in this field. In particular, he argued that there is a correlation between astrological archetypal images and «themes», pronounced astrology symbols (planets, signs of the zodiac, horoscope houses). Yung wrote in one of his works: «Astrology is the sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity».

Modern astro-psychology — the science and art

Only specialists who have experience in psychology and astrology, can correctly diagnose and analysis of the natal chart, on this basis to determine the psychological portrait of a man and answer your questions:

  • What would be a good partner for you live or work, and what complexity could arise and in what way?
  • What is the energy potential of man, what its ambitions are, what he can do, what he should look out for?
  • What type of activities it is suitable, and what challenges await him in the future?
  • What is the cause of recurring situations in life and how to avoid them?

Elena Prokunina on her consultations not only clarifies the astrological and psychological characteristics of a person, but also helps to solve their pressing problems. She explains that natal chart (the location of the planets at the moment of a person's birth) — is not a sentence from the heavens but the guide. And you can neutralize the weak and show strong qualities of your nature — the principle «forewarned — is forearmed», consciously changing your life for the better. Rising above the maze of their facilities, you will be able to find a way out of it, and all the powerful tools of psychology and astrology efficiently help you in this.
