The Geometry of Consciousness

The solar system is a complex organism composed of planetary islands bobbing in an ocean of gravitational waves.

Scientists and architects call this tensegrity — a system defined by "islands of compression floating in a sea of tension." 

The universe has only this one comprehensive coordinating system — all the same laws apply to atoms, ants, trees and galaxies.

The geometric principles of tensegrity apply at every scale from micro-scopic to macro-cosmic, spontaneously self-organizing all physical, psychological and metaphorical phenomena.

Astrology is the art and science of measuring the impact of changes in the geometric relationships between planets. Form determines function; as shapes and angles change, so does their expected outcome.

Astrotensegrity lets us see precisely how these macrocosmic changes are fractally reflected in your individual mind and body at any given moment.

Your Internal Family of Planets

Your mind is a psychotensegrity system — organized according to the exact same geometry as the solar system. Instead of physical planets, your inner space is filled with the different "parts" of your personality — your inner critic or wise sage, your inner escape artist or tender child.

Just like planets orbiting the sun, your parts orbit the center of gravity that is your true Self. However, when life gets scary or stressful, this web warps and strains and the system drifts out of harmony.

Internal Family Solar Systems (IFSS) brings together the power of parts work with the mythopoetic map provided by your unique astrotensegrity chart. This map reveals which members of your internal family are at odds, acting out or hiding in the dark — and makes clear how we can restore harmony to the whole system.

When combined with personalized, nature-based remedies, IFSS offers the promise to stabilize and harmonize your internal system, granting consistent access to inner calm, outer courage and personal freedom.

You woke up human one day...

You were born into a particular body at a particular time to particular parents whose life path impacted yours in particular ways. You had access to a particular set of options about what to wear and eat, where to go, what to do and how to be. So far, you've made the best of it.

We all arrive in this world with karmic momentum. We pass through the portal of birth on a mission to collect experience and wisdom.

Do you know your soul assignment? Are you consciously aware of the possibilities and pitfalls that define your path on this strange, dangerous and magical planet?

Let the stars guide you.

Star maps have always provided reliable guidance to brave seekers navigating new realms of land, sea and psyche.

Carl Jung says: “Astrology represents the sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity.”

Astrology is the original science, inspiring ancient sages to make precise mathematical calculations to track the subtle changes in light as time moves through space. Over the centuries, humans have made concrete correlations between the changes above and the changes below.

In world swirling with seemingly chaotic changes, this timeless wisdom is needed now more than ever.

My Approach

The way I practice astrology is a little different. My teachers and most astrologers I know spend the whole session talking, telling you how the stars and planets define who you are.

My style is conversational -- more like a counseling session than a download. My goal is to use your chart to ask you the right questions at the right time.

I integrate Internal Family Systems and nature-based self-development practices into the session. We use the planets as a treasure map where X marks the spot where we should dig for the buried gold in your soul.

I am happy to describe your astrological identity markers in great detail, but in my experience the best sessions don't require me to name a single planet or sign. We can explore and illuminate all the mythopoetic questions, abstract ideas and soul-level issues that arise in plain language, accessible to everyone and resulting in concrete invitations for what to do next.

Knowing which chapter in the story you are currently navigating is a vital discipline. Sometimes it's wise to take a giant leap of faith; sometimes it's best to stop and look both ways before crossing the street. Neither is better or worse -- it just depends on where you're at.

Every moment of your life is ripe with opportunity. The purpose of astrology is to help you identify those opportunities and recognize which area(s) of life are asking for your attention, ready for conscious evolution.
