Marjorie Orr – International Astrologer

 

 

Marjorie Orr is a leading international astrologer known for her unique blend of practical insight and mystical depth. A former BBC documentary producer with a background in philosophy, she turned to astrology after a revelatory birth chart reading over two decades ago—and never looked back.

She has since become a trusted voice in astrological media, writing columns for major publications across five continents and regularly appearing on television and radio. Her training in Jungian psychotherapy deepens her personal consultations, blending astrological insight with emotional intelligence.

Marjorie is especially known for her work in political astrology. Her predictions have drawn attention for their accuracy—as noted in Newsweek, she was among the first to link the August 2017 eclipse to historic political turbulence, identifying its Saros series predecessors that coincided with assassinations, bombings, and global upheaval. She wrote just days after the 2016 U.S. election that the eclipse “presages violence in one form or another”—a forecast that proved chillingly prescient.

Now through her site, she offers both general horoscopes and deeply personal birth chart readings, along with regular updates on how planetary forces are shaping world events.
