Astrology is an ancient symbolic language of divination that allows us to experience ourselves through the lens of the archetypal and the elemental and to understand how what is happening in the sky affects our lives here on earth. It provides us with a language through which we can come to know and understand ourselves and often leads us on the path to healing, self-discovery, self-actualization, and service. Through astrology, we can give voice to the many parts of ourselves and the perceptions, stories, struggles, and beliefs we have about those parts. My goal is to support people on the evolutionary journey of their authentic selves, deepening their intimacy with experiences, longings, goals, and relationships to family, culture, and place.

The focus of my work is to sit with and counsel people about their birth chart (also known as a natal chart). The birth chart is a map of the sky at the moment of your birth and its accuracy requires that we have a birthdate and time as well as a location. The birth chart shows us your gifts and your challenges, your primal energies and authentic essence, and your evolutionary path and journey. I do not use astrology as a predictive tool, yet astrology can guide you on your inner path of expanding self-knowledge as well as on your external life path as you navigate career and relationship dynamics, cultural constraints, and your role of service in the wider world. In a reading, I will point out any major planetary transits as they relate to your chart and are happening for you at present or that may relate to stories of your past or hold relevance for the future.

Rather than me simply telling you about your chart, our time together is a conversation. I will ask you to begin by reflecting on where you are in your life right now and any goals or insights you are hoping to gain from our time together. The information you share becomes the foundation for how I relate the information in your chart to your life. I refer to what I do as intuitive because I allow my intuition to guide my insights as I translate the language of astrology into your life.

Astrology is grounded in a widely cited ancient principle, as above so below. What is above in the cosmos also exists in infinite variety and expression below here on earth, in the intricacies and beauty of the human psyche and within every living and nonliving being. There are many other ways to express this same phenomenon including the microcosm and the macrocosm, the inner and outer, and so on. The principle is simple: what you see in a large way in one expression you see in innumerable expressions everywhere—and its corollary—the whole is always contained in the part(s). It is the principle of interconnection, and in such a serendipitous world, all actions, all experiences, and all acts of inner work and healing are reflected back to the whole. It is from this place that I offer this work in service to our collective healing. When we begin to engage at this level with ourselves, we are also engaging with outer rings of community, family, culture, and other group belongings. In other words, this act of inner engagement inevitably engages with the collective psyche and influences our collective healing. This is not the only work that needs doing; it is one form of service and an invitation for the personal and the collective to a continuously deep and authentic homecoming.

Birth chart readings are meant to focus primarily on one person. However, if there is another key figure in your life that you would like to include in your reading, please also include their birth information when you book. It can be helpful to have that other person’s chart available during your reading, when, for example, topics such as parent-child dynamics or intimate relationship concerns are relevant. If you are interested in exploring your child’s or children’s chart(s) specifically, it is preferred for at least one parent or caretaker to have an individual reading first. I am happy to work with people in any sort of relationship including family members, friends, partners, and business partners – in these cases, it is suggested that each group member have an individual reading first.
