This week we are chatting with Lianne McCafferty. You can find her at https://liannemccafferty.com/

Lianne holds the Mayo Diploma (with Distinction) in both Natal & Mundane Astrology as well as being a member of the APAI. She is a longstanding tutor for the Mayo School of Astrology and is on the board for both the Astrological Association and the Scottish AA.

Her early professional life began with a scientific career in Research & Development at a international company whilst simultaneously competing at a high level in equestrianism. The latter inevitably became a full-time vocation as both a professional rider & coach (holding a generic UKCC sports qualification) which provided a wealth of invaluable experience & skills for teaching & mentoring as well as managing the challenges of professional sport (& life!)

The opportunity to combine a scientific, analytical mind along with natural instinct, intuition & empathy has made transferring these abilities to astrology both as a writer & when working with clients a natural progression.

Based in the UK (North East) she consult internationally with a busy & varied client base, but take a particular interest in how astrology can be utilised in sport to help enhance performance.

Along with a busy family life she is an accomplished musician & currently enjoys a more recent sporting passion, martial arts. In 2022 she gained Shodan 1st Dan Black Belt in Shotokan Karate, then 2nd Dan in 2024. She has also started learning Japanese.
