Astrological Consulting and Instruction

 
 

About Me  

I am a counseling astrologer, meeting with clients to assist in accessing self-knowledge through an awareness of patterns in the birth chart. With a look at the current movements of the planets through your chart, I am also able to give insight into current themes, and indicate opportunity periods for the timing of actions and decisions.

Additionally, I tutor those who would like to learn more about astrology, or who would like to be astrologers themselves.

I host a podcast through iTunes and this website, "Evolutions of Astrology." The podcast features interviews with astrologers on a variety of topics, as well as offering demonstrations of chart-reading techniques.

I completed a Master’s Degree from Marylhurst University in Interdisciplinary Studies in 2007; my coursework included a study of spiritual traditions and Spiritual DirectionMy thesis focused upon the relationship between astrology, divination, and religion.  I presented an academic paper on these themes  at the Graduate Liberal Arts Symposium at Stanford University in June of 2008 (listen to the audio here).  I also completed my formal training and 2-year certification in Spiritual Direction at the Urban Spirituality Center, Portland in June 2009.

As a community college instructor as well as an astrologer, my experience in teaching theory has been a helpful grounding for my practice in astrological instruction.  I am also certified through Steven Forrest’s Apprenticeship Program, and I base my approach on the principles of Evolutionary Astrology.

I teach Astrology Classes and am available for private instruction and speaking engagements in addition to my consultations.

I recently had a reading with Dena and was completely blown away. In fact, I listened to the recording of our session again just two days later and know I will refer back to it again and again. She was able to cut directly to the core of some issues I was currently processing and gave me practical advice for moving forward. I left with an amazing sense of peace and courage for getting through a big transition moment in my life. There were so many little bits of insight she gave me -- each of which I could meditate on for ages.  Thanks, Dena.

Cheers,
