Bio

seventh house aquarius sun. leo rising. shamanic scorpio moon at the root of it all. inherently unable to use labels other than my name, and am thrilled at the prospect of revolving around with a network of like minded people from whom i'm sure i've much to learn. in a particularly introverted patch, so do chime in if you feel compelled.

i find myself currently gliding around in a life better than any dream i could have imagined. i am in graduate school in a program that is allowing me to pursue my interests in depth psychology and astrology. i'm completely enmeshed in dreamwork, ritual, astrology, active imagination, and enough reading that my brain demands 9-10 hours of sleep each night for processing time. my master's thesis will involve designing rituals to help people through "plutonian passages," with the goal of re-imagining the archetype of apocalypse.

i really, truly, love life.
