{{Quote|Ever has man coveted knowledge, and none more so than that of his fate. Thus did he labor to master the skill of foresight—but initial efforts bore little fruit. That is, until he looked to the stars above, which foretell the coming seasons, and learned to read the heavens. Though this gift is known today as astrology, the people of Sharlayan saw fit to not only read the stars, but to write their movements as well. By attuning their aetherial energies to that of constellations, they learned to wield magicks with heretofore unseen properties. Thus was astromancy born—a new form of magick which grants its users power over fate. Employing a star globe and divining deck in their miraculous deeds, fortune always smiles upon these masters of arcana.| Game Description}}

==General Information==
Astrologian is a healer [[job]] introduced in 2014 Fan Fest in Tokyo. Astrologian's main [[weapon]] is the [[Star Globe]]. The job starts from level 30, does not require a base [[class]] and requires [[Heavensward]]. It employs the use of celestial magicks along with a divining deck in order to heal and support their parties.

Astrologians have access to two stances. Players can switch between Diurnal Sect (provides regen effects) and Nocturnal Sect (provides barrier effects), but cannot do so during combat. This allows the Astrologian to change function to suit the party's needs (for instance, you may use Diurnal Sect if your party includes a [[Scholar]], and Nocturnal Sect if your party has a [[White Mage]].

Astrologians draws cards randomly, which can be used to give party members one of six buffs. These buffs can also be enhanced in potency or duration, or made to cover an area of effect in exchange for potency. Mastering these effects is a key skill in making the most of your abilities.

==Requirement==
*[[Heavensward]]
*Access to [[Ishgard]], where [[guilds|Astrologian's Guild]] is located.
*Complete the quest [[File:Sidequest.png|link=Side Quests|20px|Side Quest]][[Stairway to the Heavens]].
