Welcome to Magus Bear
Astrology as a symbolic language of life in time.
My name is Michael Edwin Barwick. I am an astrologer, writer, and speaker who helps people approach astrology as a language of meaning, timing, orientation, and self-understanding.
People are not problems to be solved or charts to be decoded. They are souls in motion, living through seasons of growth, grief, desire, vocation, love, uncertainty, and change.
