Welcome to Asheville Vedic Astrology

Your Lifepath Doesn’t Have to be Difficult.
A Road Map Exists to Guide the Way.

Through Vedic Astrology you will find an objective point of view to understand your life style tendencies, habitual ways of thinking and acting, your affect on other people, and greater self awareness to incite change, should you be so inspired.

At Asheville Vedic Astrology, Ryan acknowledges the force of your past actions, as indicated by your birth chart, but he emphasizes change through meditation, gem stone, mantra, and practical lifestyle regimens.  Your fate is empowered by all the actions you have taken up to this point, which means, every action you take from now on, will alter the flow of the river of your life. Astrology can serve as a powerful guidepost to making better decisions in the present.

“The message boldly blazoned across the heavens at the moment of birth is not meant to emphasize fate – the result of past good and evil – but to arouse man’s will to escape from his universal thralldom. What he has done, he can undo. None other than himself was the instigator of the causes of whatever effects are now prevalent in his life. He can overcome any limitation, because he created it by his own actions in the first place, and because he has spiritual resources which are not subject to planetary pressure.” ~ Sri Swami Yukteswar

About Your Astrologer, Channing Ayers

Channing Ayers, Asheville Vedic Astrologer

“Ever since I can remember, astrology has been part of my life. My mother began studying western style astrology  as a young woman, and I was raised around her endless piles of  hand drawn  charts and towers of astrology books. Her passion of understanding the  many mysteries of existence  was passed on to me through the years. I have always been drawn to the interpretations of the symbols, signs, and meanings of the mysteries of the universe.  In college I focused on Jungian psychology and mythology, which always seemed to point me back to the foundations I had with the astrology through working with the symbols and archetypes of human experience.  After receiving a B.A. in Jungian Psychology, I moved to the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, where I have made my home  for the past eighteen years. During this time of running my own business and raising my family, I continued to study and do charts casually for my family and friends, but still felt I was missing out on something  deeper  in the astrology and wanted to know more.  I was strongly pulled towards  studying the ancient practice of  Vedic astrology for more answers, and there began an incredible journey of finding my true passion.  I began taking classes with Ryan Kurczak  and discovered  the teachings of Ernst Wilhelm, which led me to a greater understanding of how to integrate and share  this knowledge I have been studying my whole life in a practical, grounded and beneficial way.”
