Astrologian Job Guide for FFXIV — Dawntrail 7.1
Astrologian is a healing job in Final Fantasy XIV that uses a combination of divination, cards, and the stars to heal and support their allies. They can only be played after reaching Ishgard, the main city of the Heavensward expansion, and completing a short questline in the city after reaching Level 50.
What is Astrologian's Playstyle?
Astrologian (AST) is a healer that draws inspiration from tarot and astrology, using cards from its divining deck to bolster its allies' damage and support them with defensive buffs.
Astrologian has an anticipatory playstyle that heavily rewards encounter knowledge, as several of its powerful signature healing abilities occur after a delay and must be prepared in advance. It has the lowest personal damage of any job in the game, instead focusing on increasing the damage of its allies, more than making up for its low personal damage.
How do you Unlock Astrologian?
To unlock Astrologian, you must gain access to the city of Ishgard by completing the final Main Scenario Quest of A Realm Reborn, "Before the Dawn." The Astrologians' guild (the Athenaerium Astrologicum) can be found in Ishgard in The Pillars (X:15.2, Y:10.0). Accept the quest "Stairway to the Heavens" from Jannequinard. Upon completing the quest, you will unlock Astrologian, which starts at level 30.
Astrologian Gauge
The Arcana Gauge displays your currently held cards from Astral Draw and Umbral Draw. There are six major arcana, divided into the astral deck and the umbral deck. Each draw provides an offensive card, a defensive card, and a curative card. Once you reach level 70, the draw actions also provide their corresponding minor arcana, for a total of four cards per draw.
The astral deck is shown here on the left, with the umbral deck shown on the right. For both decks, the card slots from left to right are the offensive card, the defensive card, the curative card, and the minor arcanum.
Offensive Cards
Your offensive card is always played by using Play I. The astral offensive card is The Balance, which is for melee jobs (including tanks). The umbral offensive card is The Spear, which is for ranged jobs (including casters and healers). They provide a 6% damage buff for 15 seconds when played on the correct role. The buff is reduced to 3% when played on the incorrect role.
Defensive Cards
Your defensive card is always played by using Play II. The astral defensive card is The Arrow, which increases all healing received by the target by 10% for 15s, including oGCDs, self healing, and healing from other players. The umbral defensive card is The Bole, which reduces the target's damage taken by 10% for 15s.
Curative Cards
Your curative card is always played by using Play III. The astral curative card is The Spire, which provides a small shield to the target for up to 30s. The umbral curative card is The Ewer, which provides a powerful regen that heals for a total of 1000 potency over 15s.
Minor Arcana
At level 70, you unlock Minor Arcana, which adds the smaller space on the right side of the Arcana Gauge. Astral Draw will give you a Lord of Crowns, and Umbral Draw will give you a Lady of Crowns.

Astrologian Lore
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.
