I believe astrology is more than a system—it’s a sacred tool for remembering who you are.
To me, your birth chart isn’t just a personality profile or a prediction machine. It’s a living, breathing map of energy—reflecting the soul contracts, emotional imprints, ancestral stories, and evolutionary themes you chose to explore in this lifetime. I truly believe we select our chart before reincarnating. Not as a punishment or limitation, but as a blueprint to help our soul grow.
Each placement in your chart reveals something meaningful: inherited beliefs, past-life echoes, creative potential, wounds ready to be alchemized, and the deeper purpose your spirit came to embody.
That’s why I don’t read astrology as fixed or fatalistic. I read it as an energetic language—one that helps you make sense of your experiences, find compassion for your patterns, and walk with more clarity and intention.
Astrology as an Intuitive Relationship
One of the most powerful shifts I’ve experienced is realizing that astrology isn’t something to memorize—it’s something to live with. The more time you spend with your chart, the more you’ll begin to feel how energy moves through your life. You might start noticing certain themes in your body, your relationships, your habits, or the choices you repeatedly make. That’s when astrology becomes truly alive—it moves beyond interpretation into intimacy.
Every astrologer receives and translates energy through their own lens. That’s part of the magic. But you are ultimately your own best interpreter. I see my role not as giving you all the answers, but guiding you toward deeper self-trust—helping you recognize the energetic patterns already unfolding within you.
Let Me Show You What I Mean
Here’s an example from my own chart.
My Venus is in the 6th house. Traditionally, that’s often read as "finding love through work" or "partnership in daily routines." And while that may hold some truth, it’s not the deepest resonance for me.
For me, Venus in the 6th is about being emotionally and creatively connected to my work. It’s about sacred routines, devotion through daily tasks, beauty in the ordinary, and love as care. That’s how I’ve come to live with my chart—not just interpret it. And that’s the kind of connection I hope to help you cultivate too.
Challenging Placements as Portals of Growth
Some placements get labeled as “difficult”—but I believe every placement carries potential, depending on how we meet the energy.
Take Saturn in Aries, for example.
It’s often described as a tough placement: Saturn wants structure, while Aries acts on instinct and impulse. But if this energy is channeled into something constructive—like a disciplined physical practice (calisthenics, martial arts, strength training)—it can become a path to embodied mastery. Left unexpressed, it might show up as frustration, injury, or blocked will. But this energy wants to move. It’s not the energy that’s the problem—it’s what we do with it that matters.
Or consider Mars in Cancer. Mars is traditionally considered "in its fall" here—because assertive, direct Mars energy meets Cancer’s emotional, protective shell. But I’ve seen many high performers with this placement. Why? Because they’ve learned to channel emotional depth into aligned, meaningful action. When Mars in Cancer moves from feeling, not force, it becomes unstoppable. It’s willpower fueled by soul.
Astrology Is a Practice of Compassion
This is why I love astrology: not because it gives you rigid definitions—but because it opens doorways.
It invites you to explore your complexity with curiosity. It shows you that even your most tender challenges are part of your evolution. It reminds you that your energy is not fixed—it changes as you grow.
✨ When we learn to work with our chart consciously, even the most misunderstood aspects become sources of strength, wisdom, and embodiment.
This is the spirit I bring to my readings, my writing, and my offerings. Whether you’re just beginning your journey or returning to your chart with fresh eyes, I’m here to walk beside you—to hold space for your remembering, your alignment, and your own unique way of living your chart.
