Because one of the jobs our agrol- managers, and you, a you need. rrange the credit And while you're at it, ask your manager to explain the other Commerce Your New Roy McMaste Although Roy McMaster is not exactly a new resident in the Scugog area (he moved to Little Britain from Toronto more than a year ago) the business service he is attempting to establish is certainly new, and probably unique to the area. Mr. McMaster is an astrologer. And for a fee that starts at $35 he'll chart your individual ° horoscope. He is serious about astrology, which he calls an art-form and while admitting candidly that he offers 'no miracles," he does suggest that knowing one's complete horoscope can be beneficial to an individual. It can be used to offer advice to people on how to overcome personality problems, and make decisions in their lives. He is quick to point out that this is not fortune telling. By knowing the person's exact place, date and time of birth, the astrologer charts a person's horoscope based on the positiong of the planets which are determined mathematically. This positioning of the planets, the sun and ..moon at various times and. cycles can indicate. certain personality traits, capabilities and potential in individuals. Skeptics tend to put down astrology as nothing more than a lot of hokum-pokum with no basis in empirical scientific evidence. Mr. McMaster, a pleasant quiet-spoken man whb works as a sales- man in Toronto, and has almost completed building his own home on the north shore of Lake Scugog, does not gaze into crystal balls, or read leaves in tea cups. He talks with sincerity about astrology & says that such things as the newspaper horoscope columns are nothing more than entertainment. Suggestions that astrology can be used to make a killing on the stock market or at the race-track are nonsense, as are the tabloid headlines which claim personal tragediew in the lives of famous and infamous people. Over the years Mr. McMaster has. charted some 500 individual horoscopes. Most people who want their horoscope charted do not come to him with severe problems. 'They simply want to know themselves better, they want an impartial view of themselves." 'One area where Mr. McMaster says astrology has been helpful is in the relations between parents and children. Knowing personality traits of both parent and child can be beneficial. Mr, McMaster readily admits that attempting to attract clients for his service in the Lindsay-Port Perry-Oshawa areas may present a few problems. He is confident, however, that it will be accepted once people realise that he does not go around , sticking pins in little dolls. He is candid, sincere, obviously knowledgeable about the subject of astrology, and firmly believes that what he offers can be a help to the individual.
