About the author
Barry Goddard is an author working in the traditions of divinatory astrology and indigenous-inspired spiritual practice. His catalogue includes Surfing the Galactic Highways: Adventures in Divinatory Astrology (Moon Books, 2023), which treats astrology as a language of synchronicity between celestial and earthly events, and The Medicine Wheel (Moon Books, 2022), an exploration of Medicine Wheel traditions that originate with Indigenous peoples of the Americas and their approach to balance between the self and the natural world. Both books were published by Moon Books, a UK imprint specializing in esoteric and pagan subjects. Goddard's writing sits at the intersection of astrology, ritual, and earth-based spirituality, aimed at readers already familiar with divinatory practice who want a reflective approach to reading the sky and working with traditional wheel-based cosmologies rather than a beginner's introduction.
