Frequently Asked Questions
Readings
-
Not at all. You don’t need to know your placements or speak the language of astrology, and you don’t have to believe anything in particular for a reading to be useful. My approach is grounded rather than mystical. All you need to bring is yourself and a willingness to reflect, and I’ll translate what’s in your chart into something clear and useful.
-
Whatever feels alive for you. Some people come with a specific question about work, a relationship, or a decision they're sitting with. Others come simply curious to understand themselves better. Your chart gives us the framework, and we let the conversation follow what matters to you.
-
This isn't fortune-telling, and I won't hand you fixed predictions. I read your chart as a map of who you are and the energies shaping your life, not a script of what will happen. The work is about understanding yourself more clearly so you can move through your life with more trust and intention.
-
A reading isn't therapy and isn't a substitute for it. Think of it as a reflective conversation with your chart as the starting point. It can offer clarity, language, and perspective, and it works alongside, not in place of, the support of a therapist or other professional.
-
Send me a note before booking and we'll talk through what's possible. Birth time shapes parts of the chart, but there's often still plenty to work with, and I'll be honest with you about what we can and can't explore.
-
Sessions are 60 minutes over Zoom. Each one is recorded, and I’ll send you the recording afterward so you can return to it anytime. Before we meet, you’ll share your birth date, time, and place so I can prepare your chart.
-
Yes. You can use the link in your booking confirmation email to choose a new time up to 24 hours before your session.
-
Yes. Many people return once or twice a year, or when life feels like it’s shifting. There’s no set rhythm. This work simply meets you where you are.
Jewelry
-
You can still order. I can read your Sun sign and the signs of your other planets. Only your Rising sign, your houses, and occasionally your Moon sign need an exact time to calculate.
-
The Birth Chart Bracelet is hand-knotted with semi-precious stones and a handmade 14k gold-fill clasp. The Wood Birth Chart Bracelet uses sandalwood beads on stretch cord, so it slips right on and suits anyone who doesn’t usually wear fine jewelry.
-
Necklaces come in 16 or 18 inches. For bracelets, measure your wrist snugly and add about half an inch. If you need a custom size, reach out before ordering.
-
Every piece is made to order, so please allow 5 to 7 business days for creation. Standard US shipping is free and takes 3 to 5 business days, or you can choose express shipping for $30, which takes 2 to 3 business days. [I currently ship within the US only.] If you need your piece by a specific date, contact me before ordering.
-
Yes. Just enter their birth details and shipping address at checkout. Parents often wear their child’s chart, and you can even order a wood bracelet with your pet’s chart, as long as you know their exact birth date.
-
Because each piece is made to order from a personal chart, I’m not able to accept returns. If anything arrives damaged or isn’t right, please reach out within 7 days of delivery and I’ll make it right.
-
Remove your piece before swimming, showering, or exercising, since water can weaken silk cord and wood over time. Store it somewhere dry when you’re not wearing it.
