"Before you tell your life
what you intend to do with it, listen for what it intends to do with you.
Before you tell your life what truths and values you have decided to live up to,
let your life tell you what truths you embody, what values you represent.”
Before you tell your life what truths and values you have decided to live up to,
let your life tell you what truths you embody, what values you represent.”

In these exceptional times, the work of becoming Human is the medicine we need.
Human becoming requires a willingness to dance the floating edges of inner and outer reality while finding inherent respect for the diversity of our rhythms.
Human becoming demands a piercing intimacy with your deepest wounds and most dangerous gifts.
Human becoming means inviting Fear to gently blossom in your Heart to reveal its profound blessings and initiations.
Human becoming invites your tender failures to form the ground of your perennial wisdom.
Human becoming is risky. It is revolutionary. Often times, uncomfortable.
Your task is to gently tend to the spaces you have unconsciously avoided, as this is where true power resides.
Apprentice yourself to your mystery.
It’s not for the faint of heart, though it requires vulnerability.
It asks for your disillusionment as payment for your Life.
It is not guaranteed, though it is your birthright.
In these exceptional times, the work of becoming Human is the most courageous act of Love and service imaginable.
And it certainly calls for PLAY.
~ May all beings be happy and FREE ~

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”
Mary Oliver
I hold a space of playful exploration of your unique creative expression (power, fullness) in service to the embodiment of your human potential. This includes astrological insights as well as spontaneous inquiry.
Predictive astrology is not my specialty, nor my primary focus. Informed by a variety of astrological techniques and astrologers, my main influence and practice is mapping the Soul’s evolution, emphasizing the Soul’s Desire and your unique wiring for its expression through your Self Identity. I look to uncover what stands in the way of your deeper fulfillment and emergence of latent gifts (a.k.a. “shadow”) and how you might manifest these gifts in service to building the future you would like for yourself, your children, your community, and society. The interweaving of personal fulfilment and collective need is the bedrock of a deeply satisfying life.
As a living sky enthusiast, I look at the celestial dynamics of your birth moment as well as in progressions and transits. This includes the lunar nodes and their dispositors, the Sun-Moon relationship at birth, and planetary heliacal phases, especially those of Venus and Mars. Incorporating the sky embraces more of what and who we are.
One of my specialties is working with couples to locate and nourish the fertile ground of the partnership by introducing and unpacking the possible soul-level benefits for the relationship.
Your work/active beingness changed and changes my life. I think there’s something about working with you long term that adds such a depth. Like you show me the seeds that are already present in my [un]consciousness and then I get to actively choose to water them, let them have more light or shadow. Receive the fruits of my life.
~ Marina
Challenges are woven into the very fabric of human life: they illuminate a choice point between old habits and new potential. When we begin to form relationship with these challenges, we experience ourselves and others differently; we develop the strength of a tender heart and begin to participate co-emergently with our life. Holding our challenges in this way empowers us, and our obstacles now become doorways into deeper embodied fulfillment.
This is what characterizes a Precious Human Birth.

I just wanted to say again how much I appreciate our time yesterday.
It is probably the best reading I have had from any astrologer.
Your willingness to delve into the depths and weave all the energetic patterns together in a directed, conscious way was remarkable.
All the best to you and to the flourishing of your work.

Thank you so very much. The reading today has already been transformational. Your approach gave me such a new perspective to my journey. I just want to hug my baby moon! And for the first time I feel like I can have a personal relationship with the planets and stars.

I’m incredibly moved by your gift and so glad to have met you. I keep recalling how it felt like you were channeling my true self as much as reading my chart yesterday…I’ve never had such an experience. I’m incredibly grateful to have found you, for your deep presence and profound intuition and knowledge…

You have the ability to combine your deep, profound knowledge about astrology (facts) with your gentle, open heart (compassion). The way you communicate is very powerful, clear, considered and smart. A killer combination.

This is definitely not an astrology reading — for me it’s a healing session. How you weave the whole thing is very precious, Andrea. You have a wonderful gift…it dropped me into my heart space.
