Episode 90 of Wild Woman Podcast is out now and has to be one of the most precious conversations I have had since I started the podcast back in 2023.
I had the honour and pleasure of speaking with the Wisdom Keeper and Astrologer that is . Melanie has been living and breathing the language of astrology since she was a young girl, gazing up at the at the stars in South Africa where she was born. She is highly respected internationally for her work, particularly her work on the centaur, Chiron also known as “The wounded healer”.
Magically, we discovered a connection between our maternal grandmothers, which traces back to a small village in Northern Ireland called Trillick. My grandmother, Annie Breen, was born there in 1899 and Melanie’s grandmother, Frances Maria McGregor, was born nearby and was married in Trillick Parish Church in 1911. Who knows they may have passed each other on the street and even shared a smile.
I have no doubt our grandmothers orchestrated the conversation and when you listen to the podcast, I’m sure you will know why!

About Melanie
Melanie Reinhart is best known for her book 'Chiron and the Healing Journey', and her work on Chiron and the Centaurs Chariklo, Nessus and Pholus.
She is a prize-winning diploma holder of the Faculty of Astrological Studies in the UK (Margaret Hone Award 1979), of whom she is also a patron.
She was awarded the prestigious Charles Harvey Award in 2004, given by the Astrological Association of Great Britain for 'exceptional service to astrology'. Her work is an unusual combination of intuition and meticulous research.
Melanie was born in Zimbabwe, whose night sky inspired her vocation of astrology at an early age; she began studying the ancient Wisdom Traditions at the age of ten.
She holds a B.A. Degree (University of Cape Town) in English, Music and Drama, and has been a professional astrologer since 1975, this being a natural extension of her interest in soul, consciousness and the spiritual life.
She has wide experience of many psychotherapeutic approaches and spiritual traditions, and has studied with a number of fine teachers.
Melanie was initially self-taught in astrology, immersing herself for many years in the work of Dane Rudhyar. Later she had the privilege of learning from the many gifted astrologers in the rich milieu of London, and that journey continues. Melanie studied Horary astrology with Geoffrey Cornelius (1989-1990), and Deborah Houlding (Practitioner's Certificate 2012).
Melanie has taught for many highly esteemed astrology schools, in the UK and abroad, including the Centre for Psychological Astrology, the London School of Astrology, the Faculty of Astrological Studies, Aula Astrològica de Catalunya, Heaven and Earth Workshops and Astro*Synthesis. She has presented astrological seminars, lectures and experiential programs for local astrology groups in the UK, eight European countries, South Africa, USA, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Currently living in rural Bedfordshire, Melanie maintains a busy consulting practice with an international clientele. This intimate use of astrology as a vehicle for personal guidance is the heart and soul of her astrological work.
