The Human-Cosmos Connection

My main areas of interest and approach are Evolutionary Astrology (put forth by Jeff Green) and Psychological Astrology. My self-study began in 2006, and over the years, I have studied with various teachers, including Psychosynthesis Therapist and Evolutionary Astrologer, Mark Jones (with whom I studied Psychosynthesis for a year). I'm fascinated by the work of Patricia Walsh (author of Karmic Complexes); seeing past-life themes in people's astrology charts. I completed the first course of a Past Life Regression training with her in 2015. I began doing astrology readings for people in 2013. 

As Astrology is essentially a language of  archetypal symbols, which when combined, represent almost any aspect of life, the symbols can manifest in such a multitude of ways, that I personally don't feel it's useful to try to predict the future with them. I prefer to have a dialogue with you to find out what's going on for you that you're seeking understanding about, so that I might bring a deeper and broader psychological understanding to yourself, and your present and past experiences. 

Sometimes the immensity of the night sky can make our earthly troubles seem  insignificant in the grand scheme of things. While the perception may be accurate in some sense, it seems paradoxically true that the sky mirrors our significance, in that it mirrors us at all. Astrology can be so illuminating, as it puts the cosmic timing of the challenges we meet in our lives into a context of their themes and lessons. Its mirroring of us to ourselves can give us a real felt sense that what we go through is not random; that there’s a spiritual dimension to even our most painful experiences. While  astrology cannot take away one’s pain over loss of any kind, it can bring a sense of meaning and purpose to suffering, and bring clarity to confusion. And like anything that brings more awareness to understanding ourselves, it has the potential to increase our ability to make more conscious choices going forward. In that way, even a single astrology consulatation may have a profound and positive impact on one’s life. 

Astrology continually affirms my feeling that far from being alone, floating like insignificant specks in a vast universe, we are seen and known by the source from which the universe and all life springs.  

When I first started getting astrology readings, I was so struck by the awe-inspiring implications of the sky reflecting my life and my relationships, and by the insights I gained into things I may have sensed, but couldn't put my finger on. To this day, I continue to be amazed by what astrology reflects.

One specific way a particular astrology reading had a profoundly positive effect on my own life, was bringing clarity to a major life choice I had been feeling so confused about for years. As the astrologer put it, “it’s like you’re equally fighting for it and against it", and I could see that perfect summation of my turmoil reflected in the symbols she showed me. With her insights, I came away feeling like all the while during which I’d been spinning my wheels in my head about which path in life to take, I’d been like a cubist painting of a person; disjointed pieces of me stacked here and there. I left that reading with my "pieces" all coming back to the center line. I felt whole again. I've been grateful ever since that her insights brought me the clarity that I'd been so desperately seeking; that allowed me to finally choose which fork in the road I wanted to take. It was like coming home..
