About Me

In my early twenties, I left college early because I felt Academia was not where I would learn what I wanted to learn. I set out on a quest to find out who I really was, beyond my cultural upbringing, genetic patterning, and schooling. My big questions as I gazed at the sky were: where did I come from, what was my purpose, and what was wrong with me because I did not want what others sought?

I began by exploring my physical body’s wisdom through living in a Yoga commune to enhance my health, along with Chiropractic treatments, massage and nutrition. After training, I earned a living as a Yoga teacher, massage therapist, exercise specialist, and aerobic dance teacher.

In my thirties, I gravitated towards healing my emotional body. I read many self help books and attended various workshops. I was trained as a Rolfing Movement practitioner, which is a hands-on body work that focuses on joint mobility and the emotional patterns that are stored in the body. It was then that I discovered Astrology and began using the position of the Moon for all my clients to understand its significance on their emotional body’s health. I had my first Astrological natal reading, which altered my life in an extraordinary way. I immersed myself into studying this ancient art of interpretation and the unique cycles of living and learning. Through my own chart, I could see the cosmic clock-like movements of the transiting planets as they contacted my natal chart’s planets.

In my forties, I moved to North Carolina to begin a journey into a deeper quest of the mental and spiritual aspects of my life through reading books and attending workshops designed to raise my consciousness on what cannot be seen, only experienced. In my mid-forties, I gave my first Astrology reading. The woman was thirty-five years old and in emotional turmoil. She had moved back to North Carolina, where she was raised, after living in Florida for twenty years. This woman’s natal birth chart was being transited by a powerful Pluto event (death, transformation).  The position of Pluto in the sky at the time of the reading was in a square (obstacle) aspect to her natal Moon (emotions, mother). I went back in time to the beginning of the cycle, when transiting Pluto conjoined (together) her natal Moon. She would have been fifteen years old. I suggested that she came back to North Carolina to heal an old wound with her mother. I asked her what happened when she was fifteen years old. Her immediate amazed reply was, “When I was fifteen years old, my mother was working in a convenience store and was shot to death in a robbery. I ran away from home to Florida because my stepfather molested me and I have come home to heal this wound!"

My client’s extraordinary reply convinced me that Astrology was valid. Not everyone has that kind of intense trauma in their lives, though they may have other areas to heal. I decided my future was to become an excellent Astrologer and be of service to others by interpreting their unique cosmic blueprint based on their date, time, and place of birth. At that time, in addition to earning a living as a Rolfing Movement practitioner, I was learning to be a gardener by growing herbs and wild-crafting for making natural remedies and creating flower essences.

In my fifties, I attained accreditation through NCGR Professional Astrologers’ Alliance. I also gained a certificate in laboratory and field work in Herbalism and in my sixties, I re-opened the doors to using herbal medicine in a practical way. I also wholeheartedly dove into Qi Gong for learning about energy to increase my vitality and longevity. During the end of my sixties, I began a course in Astro-Herbalism/ Medical Astrology, which combines both of what I love into a whole.

Now in my early seventies, I have been giving astrology readings for 27 years and am still learning. I am grateful to all the people I have encountered on my journey, who trusted me to openly share their most intimate selves. That is how I truly learned, in addition to my accreditations. Coming full circle, I realize that knowledge gained seeks dispersal. I love showing people a way to themselves and to discover more of who they are. My quest for self discovery led me to a greater love, value and acceptance of myself, others, Earth and the cosmos.
