The stars are like letters which inscribe themselves at every moment in the sky. Everything in the world is full of signs. All events are coordinated. All things depend on each other; as has been said: “Everything breathes together.” — Plotinus

There is nothing new under the sun, but there are new suns.
― Octavia E. Butler

I study the language of the stars because I want to help re-enchant our relationship to our inner and outer worlds.
It is truly a gift for me to able to connect people with their unique gifts and clarify what they have to offer this world. I want people to see their innate wholeness and beauty; that they are divine exactly as they are.

I am the reader for you if you:
- you are an artist or consider yourself creative
- you wish to heal your relationship to the self and the world
- believe time acts in spirals and there is more to the world than what we can see
- see a connection between the inner and outer
- believe inner attunment is key to collective liberation
- want to connect more deeply with the divine without the strictures of organized religion

Eternal Bloom Natal Reading (90 min)

The name for this reading comes from the name I was given during my time living at a Buddhist Monastery. From the moment we take our first breath, we are imprinted with the precise configuration of the planets that coalesced at that moment. This original chart never changes and represents a fundamental set of truths about ourselves. But astrology is, ultimately, the study of time. Our charts are constantly developing along with us. While we are always the same— whole, complete, lacking nothing— there are still novel challenges and events that also ensure we are always changing, blooming even.

In this session, we explore both your birth chart’s natal promise and help decipher what are the biggest sources of influence and meaning in your life. I will identify both your natural gifts and challenges and from where they arise. I love focusing on the creative, spiritual and magical parts of the chart so will use this reading to highlight all the portals you contain.

This one-size-fits-all reading can address any questions or concerns you have about your life and its patterns

Some focuses include: the rising sign + chart ruler; triplicity and bound lords; the midheaven, 6h + 2h for work; 7h, Venus + 5h for love, 9h + 3h for spirituality and journeys; dodecatemoria, decans, applying + separating aspects

Desired Constellations Transit Reading (60 min)

“With a palm full of stars/I throw them like dice...until the desired constellation appear”
- Björk

One of my astrology teachers described transits like desires; something within us moves towards a new object or possibility, thus changing our lives and moving them forward. But we can also trace these desires back to the movements of the planets, constellations far beyond us but connected to our deepest, most intimate selves.

In this reading, we will see how your inner experience and your outer world are coming together. I will isolate what parts of your chart are most active and what themes and lessons are being developed over the next season, six months, year. Though the chart can dictate its own narrative, you are more than welcome to bring forward certain topics or questions you want answered in the course of the reading. I use a combination or annual profections, Solar Return charts, and transits to isolate the unique shape of your current constellations and how to best work within the rhythm of your own life.

Some techniques I use: annual, monthly and continuous profections, firdaria, transits, solar returns

Fixed Star Parans Reading (90 min)

As I have written about in the Mountain Astrologer, studying the fixed stars is to study the language of the soul. And by soul I mean the part of us that connects body and spirit. The soul also holds our essential purpose, one that we may have forgotten, but that precedes our current incarnation. Psychologist James Hillman writes: “Soul appears as a factor independent of the events in which we are immersed” and connects us to something grander.

In considering the fixed stars touching our charts, we may have a deeply felt, or even divine sense of meaning in our lives. Though a planet may help us understand the material manifestations of a life, looking to the stars speaks to who we always are and always have been

**You do not have to know much about fixed stars, or astrology in general to benefit from this reading** Anyone can walk outside at night and see the constellations. We all can understand and relate to stories and myths, which is much of what this reading is, rather than focusing on ore technical aspects of the chart.

A fixed star reading is also perfect if you want to connect more deeply to the stars and the divine beings inhabiting them— spirit relation need not be intimidating.

This reading is for you if you want more divinity, soulfulness, story-telling, creativity, and possibility in your life.

While we will focus primarily on a technique called fixed star parans, star conjunctions will also be considered.

Creative Praxis Reading (60 min)

Creativity and spiritual has long been intertwined in my life. Thanks to this connection, I am actually able to make art without ego but play and curiosity. I am able to see art as a stream to which I tune in rather than something I must forge on my own. But in this capitalist, puritanical world, these practices can seem inaccessible or frivolous.

The world needs your art. There are spirits who are dying for you to speak back.

By exploring the 3rd, 5th, and 9th houses, we will identify what your ideal creative and/or spiritual practice looks like. We will talk about your creative hopes and dreams and devise ways to make those dreams a reality.

In addition to exploring the houses of creativity and spirituality + their rulers, we will also be using my pioneering system for understanding the Muse asteroids, based on the 9 Greek goddesses of art. By seeing which muses are prominent in your chart, we can fill in more details about your unique creative expression as well as understand how a ritual, spiritual practice— the sense that you are never creating alone.

This reading is for any and all artists, spiritual practitioners and those who believe in the vivifying power of enjoyment.

I fell into myself, and each time I fell more deeply.
-Alejandro Jodorowsky

My readings are intuitive and practical and above all, affirming.
You are the expert of your own life and I view tarot as a power tool of recalibration to that fact. Like the etymology of affirmation will tell you, I am here to strength your trust in yourself and the tasks of your life. I trust the innate wisdom and compassion of my clients and see my readings as collaborations between two divine humans and the mysterious third thing that arises when true meeting occurs.

The space I make during a reading is meant to be inclusive, non-judgmental and clean. The tarot is a tool to help us make sense of our own innate wisdom, so functions best when it affirms what we already know to be true, while better organizing the moving parts at play and giving us a grip on next steps. You will leave the readings with a better sense of yourself and your surrounding energies as well as how to proceed with clarity and compassion.

Though you are welcome to come into the reading with a question in mind, no specific question is necessary- the cards may have their own agenda anyway!

I currently offer 60 and 90 minute readings for new clients and 30 minute check-ins for returners.
