A traveller's guide to your body.

This is Medical Astrology: but the kind that maps your body through your chart and gives you back the language for what you've already been feeling.

You probably found me through a placements post. Maybe one where you recognised yourself a little too clearly, the way your nervous system runs hot, the way you wake at three in the morning, the way your gut speaks before your mouth does.

Medical astrology is the practice of reading the body through the chart. Every sign rules a part of the body, every planet describes a function and every transit names what's currently being asked of you, physically.

What it does, when it's done well, is give you understanding of your body and why it's been doing what it's been doing. Most people who find this work have been carrying something for years: a symptom, a pattern, a way the body behaves that they've been reading as a character flaw. The chart doesn't diagnose but what it tends to show is that the body was accurate all along. 

I've spent years building a practice that's clinical enough to take seriously and warm enough to use. The chart is your map and your body is the textbook. I help you learn how to read both.

The offerings

There is something for everyone. If you'd like your own chart read, there are three readings to choose from, from a short look at this season to a full walk through your chart. And if you want to keep learning through the seasons, the body as it moves through each part of the zodiac across the year, the seasonal class runs through all twelve.

Personalised Readings

Three ways to have your own chart read: a Season Reading for how this season lands in your body, a Written Reading to keep and return to, or a Video Reading where I walk you through it. Start small, or go deep.

The Seasonal Class

A live class once per astrological season, run through all twelve signs of the year. Each class has four parts: closing the previous season with a somatic check-in on what the body just moved through, teaching the sign's body territory as it always exists, walking through what the sky is specifically doing in that territory this year, and giving a body-listening practice to carry through the month ahead. Twelve seasons. Twelve body zones.
