I love being in touch!
But before you reach out, please review the following FAQs to make sure your question hasn’t been asked before.
How does a consultation work?
You can book a consultation via my online calendar. You’ll also be asked to submit the intake form with some questions, which helps me prepare for your consultation and ensures your expectations about our session are met. Payment can be done via Paypal, Creditcard or iDeal/Bancontact (via webshop). Your consultation will take place via Zoom. The session will be recorded and sent to you afterwards, so you can revisit the consultation anytime you want. You’ll also receive a digital copy of your birth chart.
Help! Which consultation should I get?
If you’re new to astrology, or have never had your birth chart read, start with the first option: Feel Your Sky. This is an entry-level, foundational birth chart consultation in which you’ll get to meet and experience your most fundamental birth chart placements, including (but not limited to) your ascendant, ascendant ruler, and sect light. For those who have had astrology consultations before, but never read in whole sign houses and/or from a somatic, experiential lens, this consultation is a good place to start too.
If you want to focus specifically on timing (past/current/future), I suggest booking the You are Here consultation, where we’ll dive into current and upcoming astrological cycles to help you orient yourself in time. Please note that this session works best if you have a working understanding of your natal chart placements.
If you have a curiosity about one or two specific placements, Inner Planets would be a great suggestion. We’ll get really intimate with a planet in your birth chart and use visualisations, experiential exercises, journaling and parts work so you can get an embodied understanding of your birth chart placements.
What house system and zodiac do you use?
I practice western, tropical astrology with a mix of mainly traditional (i.e. hellenistic and medieval) astrology and some elements of evolutionary & psychological astrology. Concretely, this means I read charts using whole sign house system and using traditional rulership, but in my interpretation I like to integrate some of the psychological insights from modern astrology.
Can you read the chart of my partner/child/friend?
Maybe… if they are present for the session! It’s worth noting that at this point in time, I don’t offer synastry readings. If you want to learn more about the birth chart of your loved ones and how this may impact your dynamics, there’s a lot we can already see based on your birth chart alone. After all, my entire jam with somatic astrology is helping you feel into your birth chart and the relationship dynamics they speak to. Trust me that with this work, there’s a lot that can shift in your relationships just based on your birth chart alone.
Can you predict my future?
I am not a psychic and I don’t imply causation in my consults. However, I do use some timing techniques (transits, annual profections, secondary progressions, and sometimes zodiacal releasing) that can help you get a sense of how the planets move through your natal chart and impact your life. Looking at transits can give you a sense of which planets have been making your life harder or easier, and can also give you an idea of what’s in store for you the next year. I use the technique of annual profections to organise and prioritise transits according to which house topics are most important to you and which planets in a natal chart are activated during a given time period.
What information do you need for casting a chart?
I will need your birthday and year, birth location and exact birth time. I specifically say “exact” because it matters a great deal—sometimes even a minute can make a big difference!
This is because your birth time determines precisely where the horizon was at the time of your birth. This sign that was rising on the eastern horizon is your Ascendant, which is an essential part of your birth chart and lets you know what your direction in life is.
Another important placement in your chart that is decided by your exact birth time is the Midheaven, which is the point that reflects your career or vocation. Lastly, given that the Moon moves approximately 12-14 degrees per day, knowing your exact birth time makes a huge difference for your chart and impacts how effective and precise a birth chart reading is.
Do you work with asteroids and aspect patterns?
Nope, I don’t currently use asteroids and I don’t interpret aspect patterns. So if you’re looking for someone to interpret your yod or natal Vesta placement, I’m not your astrologer. It is my personal belief that less is more in astrology, so rest assured that I can get a lot from the “basics”.
I don't know my birth time, can you still help me?
There are ways we can work with the information you do have. For example, if you do have a window of time such as “somewhere in the morning before 10” or “after sunset”, we can rule out some other times and hone in on the possibilities. I have done chart consultations for people who don’t know their birth time, using a sunrise chart. There is some basic ground we can cover with this technique, but there are also major limits in terms of timing and forecasting. I don’t offer chart rectification, so I do suggest exhausting every possible avenue to discover your birth time: asking the people present at your birth, checking your birth certificate, baby books etc. An exact time will always give us the most accurate results.
How can I gift a consultation to my loved one?
Make sure first that they consent to receive a birth chart consultation. The ideal situation is if they actively want to have a session with an astrologer, and it’s even more ideal if that astrologer they want a session with is me! Different people have different needs, so I always want to make sure that your well-intended gift is really appreciated by the person receiving it.
If that’s all taken care of, please reach out to me via email to let me know what session you want to give and I’ll send you an invoice plus a coupon code you can write in a birth day card.
How long have you been studying astrology?
I’ve been familiar with my own chart since I was a child, but I started seriously studying astrology in late 2017. My main teacher at this point is Kelly Surtees, but I’ve also learned from Chris Brennan, Demetra George, Austin Coppock, Jason Holley, and many other professional astrologers.
