Kathie is the author of the Friends, Trends and Future Forecast.

Kathie Garcia has been studying astrology for 32 years and holds a bachelor's degree in anthropology from Tulane University. Her earlier studies took her to London, where she studied at University College. She is a certified Montessori teacher, with eight years of experience in the classroom, and has taught newborns through adults. Her Friends, Trends and Future Forecast is the first forecast reading written specifically for teenagers and young adults.

Kathie writes for Atlantis Rising magazine and the Montana Pioneer monthly newspaper. She has been on a score of radio programs and has lectured throughout the United States and Mexico. Kathie has also served as a faculty member at the American Federation of Astrologers Conferences. She says that her 'house is like a hotel. There are always kids of all ages coming in and out. Our dining room table is the site of some incredible philosophical discussions, from the wisdom from the mouths of babes to the ideas of the older kids, who are coming into adulthood at a time of such awesome transformation. Much of the Friends, Trends and Future Forecast came out of these discussions.'
