Archetypal astrologer, transformational coach and elder guide to the elemental pathways of change

My work supports people moving through profound periods of transition. Times when identity shifts, familiar structures dissolve and something new begins to emerge.

Drawing from archetypal astrology, depth psychology and earth rooted wisdom traditions, I help people orient within the deeper cycles of transformation.

Coaching provides the relational space where this work unfolds.

Astrology offers a map of timing and archetypal meaning.

The elemental spirals of Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Aether offer a practical way to understand the movements of change.

Together these approaches help people recognize where they are in the cycle of transformation and move through it with greater awareness, courage, and trust.

Living in a Time of Profound Change

We are living in a time when many of the structures that once organized life are shifting.

Cultural expectations, career paths, identity roles, and inherited assumptions about how life should unfold are less stable than they once were.

Many people feel this change personally. A career path that once felt certain begins to unravel. A long held identity no longer fits. A quiet inner knowing begins to ask for something different.

These moments can feel disorienting. They can also become powerful thresholds of transformation.

Much of my work is devoted to helping people understand these passages and navigate them with greater clarity and steadiness.

My own path into this work began during one of these periods of rupture.

The Rupture

For me this work began with a rupture.

For much of my early life I tried to live within the expectations that had been handed to me. The cultural roles available to me did not fully match the deeper currents I sensed moving through my life. For a long time I tried to ignore that tension.

Eventually it became impossible to ignore.

The life I had carefully constructed began to come apart. What I thought my path would be no longer held. I entered a period of deep questioning that asked me to reconsider identity, purpose, and belonging.

During that time I encountered archetypal astrology. For the first time I found a language that could name the patterns of change I had been experiencing.

The work also reconnected me to something older in my Canadian Métis lineage. As I explored my family history and listened more closely to the stories carried through generations, I began to recognize ancestral threads that had quietly shaped my life.

There was a long line of people who lived close to the edges of their communities, offering forms of guidance and healing that did not always fit easily within the dominant culture.

Recognizing that lineage helped me understand that the rupture I experienced was not simply a personal crisis. It was an initiation into a deeper calling.

The Evolution of My Work

In the decades that followed, I continued studying the patterns of transformation that appear in human lives.

Through archetypal astrology, depth psychology and years of guiding others through periods of change, I began to see that transformation moves in recognizable rhythms. People pass through phases that require different kinds of attention and support.

These movements gradually revealed themselves through the language of the elements.

• Earth speaks to grounding, rebuilding, and reconnecting with what sustains life.

• Water invites emotional depth, healing and the release of what can no longer continue.

• Fire brings the intensity of change, endings and the courage required to transform.

• Air opens perspective, insight and the ability to see new possibilities.

• Aether holds the integrating field where meaning emerges and a new orientation to life becomes possible.

These spirals are not stages to complete but living movements people revisit many times in a life.

How I Work

As an archetypal astrologer and transformation coach, my role is to help people orient within these movements of change.

Astrology reveals the larger archetypal patterns active in a person's life and the timing of important cycles.

Coaching provides a grounded relational space where people explore what these patterns mean in their lived experience.

The elemental spirals translate these insights into practical orientation. They help answer a simple question: Where am I within the cycle of transformation unfolding in my life right now?

When people can recognize their location within the process of change, the next step often becomes clearer.

Lineage and Training

My work draws from more than four decades of study and practice devoted to understanding human transformation.

These include archetypal astrology, process-oriented psychology, transpersonal psychology, soulcraft initiation guiding, guided imagery and earth-based wisdom traditions.

I am also a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) through the International Coaching Federation, the leading global organization for professional coaching standards.

Over the years I have worked with individuals and groups navigating many forms of life transition. Career change, identity transformation, leadership emergence, spiritual questioning and major life passages all carry their own forms of threshold.

Each requires a slightly different kind of attention and support.

If you find yourself at a point where something in your life is shifting, you are not alone.

Periods of uncertainty and change are often the very places where deeper clarity and new forms of leadership begin to emerge.

My work is devoted to helping people recognize these thresholds and move through them with greater awareness, steadiness, and trust.

If this work resonates with where you are in your life right now, you may wish to explore the ways we can work together.
