Episode 471 - Hellenistic Astrologer Saffron Dennis

12/21/2025
This week we are talking with Saffron Dennis a Hellinistic Astrologer. https://divinebaytree.com/ & https://substack.com/@divinebaytree Saffron is based in the East Anglia region of the UK. Astrology has been the main focus of study since she was a teenager in the late '80s, starting as many astrologers of the time did with the psychological style of Modern Astrology. In 2019 she began establishing new skills in Hellenistic Astrology through studies in Chris Brennans' course, which has now become integrated into her astrology practice. Those studies led her to a deeper, spiritual and devotional approach to Hellenistic Astrology through her tutor and mentor Adam Elenbaas at Nightlight Astrology. she is truly honoured to work with Adam and fellow staff at the school. Adam's classes are life-changing in many ways; spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually. She also had the pleasure of studying with Sue Ward, a truly talented traditional astrologer whose experience in William Lilly's work is unsurpassed. Sue's humour and generosity of spirit were a contagious duo, making her classes fun and informative. Along with her astrology studies, Saffron also spent many years delving into various topics. She recently completed a diploma with the Spiritual Companions Trust as a Spiritual Coach, Companion & Caregiver. Her love of working with the crystal world has spanned over two decades, completing her first FHT-recognised diploma in 2008. She is revisiting that work with Jackie Winters at the British Academy of Crystal Healing, taking the diploma again to refresh her knowledge. Saffron believes it is important to continue to learn and expand from the foundational level all the way up. In the past, but no longer practising, she holds qualifications as a holistic beauty therapist, and as a tarot reader as member of TABI, passing their qualification many years ago. She also hold an RHS level 3 qualification in Horticulture and a level 2 in Understanding Mental Health. She now volunteers co-facilitating a monthly on-line group for the organisation Action For Happiness which is a movement of people taking action to create a happier and kinder world, together. And lastly she is also (now) a trustee and on the board of The Astrological Association https://www.astrologicalassociation.com/board-members/
