NATAL CHART READING
Your natal chart, (AKA your “birth chart” AKA your "chart”) is a snapshot of the planets relative to planet Earth at the moment that you were born. It is a depiction of “you,” and the themes of your life journey as it unfolds over time. Your natal chart shows your archetypical energy signature, as well as the energetic dynamic underlying all of the experiences, relationships, perceptions, emotions, and events --large and small, internal and external-- that is your life! Your natal chart is like a symphony written as sheet music! It is a depiction of the inextricable, synchronous, harmonic moment upon which the energy of the whole cosmos coincided with your individuation on planet Earth!
I briefly overview each planet placement, and then the majority of the reading is organized by themes that stand out to me in your unique chart. The themes of each reading are as unique as each chart! I offer interpretations of aspects and patterns, along with practical suggestion to make the best use of the energy.
Click here for more details about the astronomy behind the natal chart. This chart is the foundational chart upon which all further astrological charts are drawn, and so it is recommended that your first chart reading be of your natal chart.
The natal chart contains infinite depths. You are welcome to ask for a longer natal chart reading, or to return after your first reading for second, third, fourth, or fifth natal chart readings to explore deeper layers to your chart or zoom in on details. I presently offer audio readings and written reports. Along with each reading, I invite you to follow up with questions and reflections

TRANSIT READING
If you are in a transition. making a decision, or in some way wondering "what is going on in my life right now and where do I go from here?!" a transit reading can offer direction towards the best way to interpret a situation, identify the lesson of an experience, and to make wise choices. When we recognize the influence of a transiting planet, then we can make the best use of the opportunities that that planet brings.
The Earth is always turning, the planets are always orbiting, and so transits happen every moment of every day, and they can describe the quality of energy fluctuations from the micro-level of emotional waves, to the large-scale, long-lasting level of deep, personal changes. Some transits coincide with significant life events, and others take more time and operate subtly and persistently to change us.Transits can be noticed in our life through people, situations, perceptions and emotions that we experience for an amount of time.
Transits can be read at any increment of time-- quarterly, biannually, annually, or occationally as needed during profound life changes.

SOLAR RETURN+TRANSIT CHART READING
The position of the planets on your birthday are said to influence your upcoming year in a similar way that the position of the planets on the day of your birth are said to influence your lifetime. A solar return chart is calculated based upon your location at the moment that the sun in the sky is in the same position as it was on the moment of your birth.
I include a mini transit reading as part of a solar return reading to gain a full picture of the influential energies of the year ahead.

RELATIONSHIP READINGS
Relationship readings are wonderful for partnerships of all kinds-- romantic, friendship, business partnerships-- as well as explorations into family dynamics and ancestral themes.
A romantic partnership reading can articulate needs and desires, and how those may or may not be understood or met by the other, ways of nurturing, sexual and sensual dynamic, communication style, ways the relationship entity interfaces with society, and more.
A family reading with two or more people can elucidate energetic patterns that are passed down generationally, communication dynamics, understanding of uniqueness and similarity within the family, better understanding of repeating challenges/edges, and more.
A business collaboration reading can show the potential to build something together, endurance of the connection over time, communication dynamics, who may be better suited to which tasks, interface with the community at large, and more.
A friendship reading shows similarities that attract you together, as well as differences. Through the reading, you can gain clarity on challenges the friendship may face, as well as the opportunity to get to know one another at a deeper level. Compare upbringings, values, personality, expression, needs, desires, ways of nurturing, and communication styles to gain deeper insight into the friendship's gifts, edges, and potential.
Looking into the mirror of the other is a magnificent way to become more self-aware, and as we encounter familiar edges, a reading can help navigate discernments about which way is up!
MY METHOD
I like to combine synastry with a composite chart for a complete exploration of dynamics that arise through relationship.
Synastry compares two or more people's natal charts to better understand similarities, differences, patterns and growth opportunities.
A composite chart is like a natal chart for the "relationship entity" itself. A composite chart is calculated by finding the midpoint between individuals' natal planets and points to create a third chart that depicts the energy of the relationship unit.
