Rob Dorgan
Rob Dorgan has an MA in European History from the University of Cincinnati. He began writing fiction at the age of seven with his first short story, “Murder at the La Brea Tar Pits,” followed by “Murder at the Art Museum.” Since the second grade, his interests and content have changed, but his love of telling a good story has remained.
While working on his doctorate, the trajectory of Dorgan’s life path was drastically altered when he was introduced to the mystical arts of astrology and yoga. He left academia and, along with his partner, Steve Bolia, moved to Colorado to study and work with Linda Goodman, the author of Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs, Love Signs, Star Signs, and Gooberz. He then mentored many years with master astrologer and teacher of the Ancient Wisdom, Alan Oken.
Yoga, along with astrology, changed his life. While Dorgan’s debut, Awakening the Mystic, is fiction, it is full of real possibilities for the future of our human species and Mother Earth.
Dorgan is a certified yoga educator, international retreat facilitator, meditation teacher/devotee, and a professional astrologer. In February of 2025, he and his partner, published their first book – Awakening the Mystic: A Novel of Cosmic Love and Healing, which is an Amazon Best Seller in both LGBTQ+ and New Age Mysticism fiction.
Dorgan welcomes the opportunity for live chats with reading groups about Awakening the Mystic. He is also available to speak on the benefits of yoga and meditation, as well as teach group and corporate classes. He also offers one-on-one meditation and astrology counseling sessions, which focus on using those tools to better understand and love yourself and to uncover your inner council, for a fuller life.
