Duo reading
Two charts, side by side
Maybe you have known each other for thirty years. Maybe you met last spring, have just got married, or are about to start working together. Either way, there are moments when you look at the other person and think: how can we be so different?
A Duo reading answers that. I place your two charts next to each other in Human Design, Western astrology, Ba Zi and numerology, and I show you how the two of you fit: what comes easily between you, what each of you brings that the other lacks, where you set each other off, and what to do about it.
If you have a long history together, the reading explains what you have been living with all along. If you are only just getting to know each other, it shows you how the other person is built before habits set in. I did the first one for one of my daughters and me. We have always been close, and we still came away with things neither of us had seen in all those years, and with a few simple agreements that have made living and working side by side much easier.
€240 if you have each had a personal reading with me, or €720 for the bundle with both personal readings · a live call of about 90 minutes with both of you and a written reading of around 40 pages. See sample pages.
Who it’s for
Partners, whether you have just met, just married or been together for decades
A parent and a grown-up child
Brothers and sisters
Close friends
Business partners, or two people about to work together
It is not a verdict. I won’t tell you whether you’re “compatible”, and I don’t believe any chart can. Two people who want to understand each other can make almost any combination work. What the reading gives you is the manual.
What we look at
How your energies meet. Who has the steady motor and who works in bursts, who needs to be asked and who needs to be told, and why one of you is exhausted by what delights the other.
What each of you needs to feel safe, and how the other can offer it without guessing.
Your elements together. In Ba Zi, one person’s element can feed the other’s, steady it or press on it. It explains a great deal about who gives and who receives.
How each of you decides, and how to make decisions together without one of you being rushed.
Where you rub, said kindly and clearly, with practical ways through.
The time ahead: what the coming year or two looks like for each of you, and for the two of you.
What you receive
A written Duo reading for the two of you, around 40 pages, as a PDF to keep
A live call with both of you together, online, of about 90 minutes
A short list of agreements you can start using the same week
How it works
The Duo reading builds on your two personal readings. I need to know each of you properly before I can read you together, so each person has their own personal reading first: their own form, their own call, their own written reading. Then comes the call with both of you, and your written Duo reading follows within ten days after it.
Both people take part, and each gives their own birth details. I don’t read someone who hasn’t agreed to it.
Prices
Duo reading, if you have each had a personal reading with me · €240
Duo bundle: two personal readings and the Duo reading · €720
The bundle saves you €100 compared with booking the three separately. It also makes a lovely present for two people, with a gift voucher.
Questions people ask
Can it be a surprise for my partner? The voucher can be a surprise. The reading itself needs both of you, with each person’s agreement and birth details.
We’ve only just met. Is it too early? Not at all. It is a good moment for it. You learn from the start how the other person works, what they need and how they decide, instead of finding out the hard way.
We don’t live in the same place. That’s fine. The calls are online, and you can each join from wherever you are.
Can we do it in two languages? Yes. Each personal reading can be in English, French, Spanish or German. For the Duo reading, choose the language you share.
What if we’re going through a difficult time? A reading can help you understand each other. It doesn’t replace a couples therapist or a mediator, and I’ll say so if I think that is what you need.
