Abstract

This paper tries to examine how professional astrologers use work ethics to help their clients recover from suffering and eventually become self-reliant and successful. Interestingly, they are not trained in social work, however, they are able to provide professional social service to their clients who are in need of support and care. So much so that even the professional social workers can also learn work ethics from the astrologers in order to enrich their service offerings. Indeed, astrologers’ work ethics has wider implications for professional social work practice in India.
