Paul Reeder Welcomes You

About Me

An astrologer , I provide consulting services helping people understand and accept themselves, this world we live in, and time and change. Funny how self knowledge and acceptance helps us break patterns and express ourselves in more and more satisfying ways, breaking free of patterns from the past. Check out my web site .

One of the patterns I am working on now is the balancing extremes of the disciplined and lucsious sides of my nature. As such you will see pictures of me both fat and skinny. I love change. You will see that in the many different ways I present my face - long hair, short hair, bearded, moustached, clean shaven and all.

People are my favorite subject. I love to observe, interact, and share. Spirituality plays an important role in my life and relationships. I want to continue to learn about all the religions of the world and understand how people all over the world perceive, experience and interact with the Divine Presence.

The outdoors, the desert, mountains, and other natural places are important to me. I play the saxophone and love improvisational music, jamming with friends, and playing in a little improvisational group here in Tucson called "LoveCraft".

Right this minute, I am Loving you....
