Trauma-informed Astrology Counsel and Coaching 

$180-280 sliding scale • Readings run 90-120 min session

I want to lay Jupiter’s Prosperity at your feet so that you may know true inner wealth. I wish for you deep healing, gentle transformation, and brilliant unfolding. I wish that you are touched by life’s generative pain but never extinguished by it. And I wish that you know in the core of your spirit that there is no challenge great enough to eclipse you.

I want to assist you in the work of unearthing the promises and profound opportunities available through understanding yourself as a perfect moment in time, inherently bound to others and to all of life as an astonishing and brilliant cosmic event.

I’ve lived through what I now recognize as a fortunate long trajectory of difficult Pluto placements and transits. For over a decade every inch of my personal life continuously burned down both exquisitely and excruciatingly, and there was nothing I could do to prevent it or hide from it. 

I now understand you cannot outrun or escape the promise of transformation brought on by Pluto. In the best of scenarios we leave these kinds of experiences with a deep sense that we are the better for it. And I consider myself extraordinarily lucky that this is now the lens through which I see this and all difficult transits and life transitions- cosmic, mundane or otherwise.

I turned to Astrology and the esoteric arts during my darkest nights and most hopeless moments. I learned a lot about what it means to walk a difficult path and the gifts and blessings that are always available to us along the way. I learned so much about personal destiny and celestial surrender. 

It would be an honor to offer guidance and friendship through the proverbial dark and the inevitable light- as well as the sacred dance between the two.

My readings are a combination of Evolutionary Astrology and Coaching, offered through an indigenous worldview and lens that seeks to harmonize our relationship to cosmos and life. 

ME AND MY WORK

I am a poet, artist and underground mystic. I deeply value the invisible, the dark of night, and the prosperity found in our own sacred underworlds.

I’ve learned some of my most intimate lessons through my twenty-plus years of experience in the sex trade while attempting to outrun generational poverty. And I now carry with me a profound compassion and reverence for our most shamed and fearful places.

All my work is deeply informed by my upbringing and culture/s. My family is from Peru and Ecuador and our ancestry is mostly Andino/Andean, as well as African from Nigeria that came through the enslavement of West African people to the coast of Peru. I was raised in a Yoruba ancestral tradition (from the West Coast of Africa), which I continue to honor and practice to this day, and alongside an Indigenous view of living that taught me to engage with life as a beautiful and wise ceremony.

I hold a deep reverence for the cosmos, that was nurtured by a fantastical childhood filled with long hours around our kitchen table sharing improvised poetry, tea leaf readings, and last night’s dreams. 

My Astrology readings are supported by decades-long studies in Jungian Psychology, shadow work, dream work, and deep unconditional self-acceptance. And informed by an indigenous perspective of symbols, archetypes, and how life speaks to gift us guidance and validation. I’m additionally trained as a Coach, as well as in Somatic Trauma Healing and Attachment Trauma work. 

I keep a very low profile in service of myself and to protect my privacy. I ask that if we meet in person, you please not tag me in any pics or identifying events.

PRICING 

My Pricing honors my own identity as a woman of color with Indigenous ancestry, and takes into account the experiences of poverty and discrimination that I’ve had to contend with and emotionally overcome throughout my life. I am a devoted advocate for economic redistribution, mutual aid and our collective relearning of what it truly means to be in right reciprocity with each other. My rates reflect my loving commitment to myself and my wellbeing, in a world that actively seeks to tear down, push out and exploit those in my communities. These rates support my economic survival and prosperity, and allow me to make a viable living outside of sex work. 

I encourage all other marginalized healers, coaches and mystics to adopt a practice of centering themselves economically in their offerings and work in the world. 

And I celebrate all of us, of any race or walk of life, who work to be kind, generous and conscious in the ways we engage in commerce. 

READINGS 

My readings will combine natal and transit readings depending on your inquiry. If you are unfamiliar with astrology we can start at zero. I am here to meet you at your level of understanding and in your desired area of focus. 

My readings run 90 mins to 2 hours in length and are on an honor system sliding scale from $180 to $280

Please consider paying on the higher end of the scale if you are someone with comfortable means- who doesn’t worry about being food or housing compromised, who can take vacations once in a while, who experiences relative economic ease. 

Following many Indigenous and African traditions of my own ancestry, and those I’ve had the honor to know, your payment is an offering, to me as a seer but also to spirit and cosmos on behalf of your own path, healing and wellbeing. Take the time to ask within what amount feels both good and generous to you. And then offer that with your prayer that it will do the most good in the world, in your personal life and beyond.
