Embodied Astrology

Grounding ancient wisdom in tangible experience.

It all started with the sky…

Millenia ago, our ancient star-gazing ancestors were enchanted with the sky. They found meaningful coincidence between the predictable rhythms of nature and their internal urges and conflicts. And lucky for us, their wonder paved the way for us to fully contemplate what it is to be human.

Why Astrology?

There are various ways us humans make meaning of the world. Some people find meaning in organized religion. Some people find meaning watching baseball on Sunday mornings with their family. Some folks find it in the subtle sound the wind makes on a chilly winter morning. I derive meaning from your astrological natal chart—a snapshot of the sky at the moment of your birth—which tells a symbolic story of the journey of your life.

Whether you’re a seasoned seeker of wisdom or finding yourself at a new life threshold, your natal chart can act as a map, a helping hand, or a wise sage as you contemplate the meaning of the various phases of your life.

My approach to astrology is grounded in my practice of yoga and somatics. These practices have taught me what it means to be practice “embodiment,” which to me means to experience something spiritual through something tangible. In our work together, we’ll discuss your natal chart’s symbolism, explore what it actually feels like to be you, and collaborate on ways you can use astrology to heal, grow, and live life on purpose.

FAQ

  • In my initial readings with folks, I take a little time to introduce some of the concepts of astrology and my personal philosophies about them. Then we’ll discuss the symbolism of your natal chart, focusing on the unique challenges or life questions that you bring to the reading. It’s not really predictive in nature, but more about understanding the quality of the time you’re in so you feel more empowered to make conscious choices about your own journey.

    In the reading, I may act partially as a translator of ancient symbols, but I'm moreso aiming for it to feel like a deep conversation with a good friend. I may ask you questions about your personal experiences as well as invite you to consider (or re-consider) your understanding of them.

  • My style incorporates techniques and traditions found in Hellenistic, Mythic/Archetypal, and Psychological astrology. I aim for an integrative mind-body-cosmos approach and bring in teachings from mindfulness, somatics, and mythology when appropriate.

  • My astrology practice focuses on natal chart astrology, and an exact time of birth is important in order to accurately read your chart. If you don’t know what time you were born, it's worth the effort to reach out to caregivers or track down your birth certificate to find an accurate time (sometimes the hospital you were born in will have this information as well).

    If finding your exact birth time isn't feasible for you, we can still read your chart! Keep in mind that readings without an exact birth time may lack specificity, and you may want to approach these readings with a larger proverbial grain of salt.

  • I use the Porphyry house system as a default, but I'm happy to use your preferred house system in our work together. I believe they all work.

  • Because my astrological practice is centered on personal growth and reflection, I do not interpret charts for anyone that is not present at the reading.

  • Relationship readings, or “synastry,” is an advanced astrological technique that I don’t currently practice, but hope to incorporate soon.

  • I got my first astrology reading in 2016, picked up my first astrology book in 2017, and began a 4-year professional training program in 2023. I'm currently a Year 3 student at Astrology University, where I'm also a Teaching Assistant. My practice is also heavily influenced by my yoga and somatic psychology studies.
