About Gary O'Toole
I've had a keen interest in astrology (more like an obsession!) from an early age and continue to study and perfect my skills in Jyotiṣa ('Vedic' or Indian astrology). I love that this wonderful art and science continues to offer its gems the more I explore. I have studied with various Vedic astrology teachers since 1996, including Pearl Finn and Komilla Sutton. Visti Larsen and Freedom Cole have been helpful guides, as has their teacher Sanjay Rath.
I trained in counselling and studied Ayurveda with the American Institute of Vedic Studies and at the International Academy of Ayurveda. I am a member of the British Association of Vedic Astrology (BAVA) and have lectured at the BAVA and Astrological Association conferences. I have authored three books: Cosmic Bodies: The Ayurvedic Astrology Guide to Health & Well-Being (2015); Rāhu Daśā: A Guide to Thrive (2023); and Daśā Vidyā: Timelines of Indian Astrology (2023).

How I Read
I like to study a birth chart for at least a week before I read which means a waiting period of some weeks depending on my schedule. If you require more immediate guidance, I can sometimes adjust to suit. I offer practical consultations and remedies that are easily incorporated into a busy life. Although I follow the traditional approach of an ancient practice that is steeped in mystery and esoteric knowledge, I offer easy-to-follow, practical readings clients enjoy. I blend the predictive techniques of Vedic astrology - using the traditional tools of Indian sages Parāśara and Jaimini - with holistic and practical advice for modern life, so you can make the most of any period in your life.
I have a scientific understanding of astrology and a keen intuition and insight into the challenges of life (typical Scorpio!). I pride myself in giving a comprehensive reading to every client, leaving no room for doubt or even a follow-up consultation many times. Usually, a client is happy with just one reading and uses the audio recording for many years afterwards; unless they wish to work with me in a more practical way, either month-by-month by becoming a patron of my website and following the trends, or year-on-year with a yearly reading and update on upcoming trends.
While timelines offer a graphical representation of dates in your life on which important periods are highlighted, a reading helps you effectively plan your life, and thrive - even in challenging circumstances. You get a timeline of your life report to take away with you, along with a video and audio recording of your reading.
Readings offer peace and acceptance, while helping you move confidently forward in your life, changing what you can with the help of practical advice and astrological remedy.
Here are a few words some recent clients have used to describe them: 'insightful', 'detailed', 'sensible', 'reliable', 'restorative', 'knowledgeable', 'generous', 'accessible', 'informative', 'deeply embodied', 'creative', 'profoundly practical', 'patient', 'non-judgmental', 'clarifying' and 'helpful'.

About Timeline Astrology
I began Timeline Astrology in 2012 as the word 'timeline' had just entered the popular vocabulary. Ancient cultures, including those of the Vedic era, used the stars' guidance for timing rituals and daily activities, so I think 'timeline' is a fitting description. Also, Vedic astrology has intricate predictive techniques based on sign and planetary cycles alongside transits that are my preferred techniques. These 'timelines' are the most helpful and practical for clients who do not wish to study astrology but would like to navigate their life more skillfully.
I write articles that address complex Vedic astrological calculations, in an easy-to-follow format, often omitting complex calculations for a general audience and for ease of reading. I have been published in The Mountain Astrologer magazine, Saptarishi Magazine, Astrologic Magazine, and Joni Patry's Astrology Insights Magazine. I write in an accessible manner for Western sensibilities, as I am a Westerner learning an Eastern science and art. I strongly believe in the power of astrology to reach our full potential and write articles and forecasts with helpful perspectives that tackle real issues.
In 2018, I began a podcast channel, as well as a new magazine with leading Vedic astrologers contributing articles. In 2019, I began to deepen my relationship with my readers and created a members’ site for patrons who support my work; to help fund these projects.
Become a member of my Patreon site and gain access to exclusive content, including in-depth monthly reports, online discussions, and video presentations, helping you stay updated with the latest astrological trends and insights.
My dream is to one day be part of the reinstatement of an Irish astrology society and pick up where Cyril Fagan and W. B. Yeats left off, inspiring a new generation of seekers in Ireland and around the world. If you are an astrologer based in Ireland, I would love to hear from you.
