About me
As a teenager, I dreamt of three things: going to Harvard, living in Europe, and working in Hollywood. I did all three. And then I didn’t know what to do with myself.
I was burned out and didn’t have a dream to follow. Someone recommended an acupuncturist, and lying on her table, I felt her compassion in a way I can’t fully describe. I went home after her treatment and began caring for myself as I never had, and as no one ever had for me.
It changed my life. I left LA and moved back home, into the same bedroom I’d slept in during high school. I meditated, practiced yoga, read about Eastern mysticism, and kept going back to that acupuncture table. And as I opened to all of it, astrology came into my life.
I started by reading everything I could about what it meant to be a Cancer, my sun sign. The more I read, the more I recognized myself. Astrology began teaching me who I was, and who I am.
When the planets began to sing
At first, I couldn’t stop talking about it. Everyone I met, I’d bring up astrology, ask for their birth information, and tell them what I saw in their sun sign.
Then one night at a party, I was reading someone’s chart and something shifted. It wasn’t only their sun sign speaking anymore. I could see the relationship between their Saturn and Jupiter, between their Mercury and Venus. All the planets began to sing at once. Years of reading and following my curiosity came together in that moment, and I saw a whole other level of who this person was.
When I learned the houses, it opened up again. That’s what still excites me: astrology is a treasure trove that never runs out. It gives me a way to untangle the intricacies of someone’s life and help them see what’s really going on, and the mystery of how it’s even possible keeps me coming back.
Your archetype
Jung taught me to see people through archetypes, and that’s often how I bring a chart to life. Each placement has a character, and when I name it, something clicks. I once told a woman, “You’re kind of a bog witch.” Her face lit up. “Oh my God,” she said. “I totally am a bog witch.”
That’s what an archetype gives you: an image of yourself you can hold on to and recognize. In a reading, we find the archetypes living in your placements — the different parts of you — and then the one that captures your whole chart, who you are at your core. And because none of us stays the same, I can follow your progressed chart to show how that archetype is evolving over time.
If this resonates, let’s talk. I want to make sure we’re a good fit before you commit to anything.
