The path of astrology looks different for everyone.
My own path has been shaped by a wide range of spiritual, philosophical, and lived experiences.
I grew up the son of a Christian minister in a household that emphasized a universal and open-hearted approach to faith. In my early twenties, I entered a path of sobriety and healing that led me into a decade of work with plant medicines, including ayahuasca, within South and Central American traditions.
Alongside this, I developed a long-term commitment to meditation, yoga, and contemplative practice. I owned and operated a yoga studio for over a decade and have maintained a daily meditation practice for more than 15 years.
These experiences—along with my background in creative writing, depth psychology, and both ancient and modern astrological traditions—have shaped the foundation of my work today.
Astrology as a Living Oracle
I practice astrology as a divinatory and oracular art.
I do not approach astrology as an empirical science, but as a symbolic language—one that reflects a living, intelligent cosmos. From this perspective, the movements of the planets are not random, but meaningful expressions of a deeper order that we can learn to listen to and interpret.
My work is rooted in a blend of:
- Traditional Hellenistic astrology
- Modern archetypal and psychological astrology
- Evolutionary approaches to the birth chart
- Animistic and contemplative spiritual traditions
At its heart, my approach is simple: astrology begins with listening.
Listening to the sky, to nature, to the heart, and to the stories that emerge through our lives.
A Practice of Listening and Interpretation
Over the past 16 years, I have:
Completed over 13,000 birth chart readings
Taught thousands of students through my courses and programs
Built a full-time practice as a content creator, teacher,
and astrologer
My work today lives at the intersection of:
- Astrological education
- Content creation
- Personal readings
Through my YouTube channel and daily forecasts, I aim to offer grounded, accessible guidance rooted in traditional astrology and spiritual reflection.
My work is intentionally non-political, focusing instead on the personal, spiritual, and psychological dimensions of astrology. While I respect and value mundane astrology, my emphasis is on the inner life—the evolution of the soul, the search for meaning, and the process of aligning with a deeper sense of purpose.
Nightlight Astrology
Nightlight Astrology is the school and community that has grown out of this work.
Our programs are designed to:
- Train students for professional astrological practice
- Provide a spiritual and philosophical foundation for astrology
- Support personal growth and deeper self-understanding
Some students come with the intention of becoming professional astrologers, while others are drawn to astrology as a lifelong spiritual practice.
Both paths are equally welcome.
Astrology as Storytelling
My academic background is in creative writing, and I hold both an M.A. and an M.F.A. in the field.
For me, astrology has always been a form of sacred storytelling.
Each birth chart is a living narrative. Each transit is a new chapter. Each reading is an opportunity to listen more deeply to the story that is unfolding.
Whether I’m working with a student, a client, or an audience, I return again and again to the same intention:
To help people see their lives as meaningful, connected, and part of a larger unfolding story.
A Personal Note
Outside of astrology, I value a life rooted in balance and practice—meditation, physical health, time in nature, and meaningful connection with others.
These are not separate from astrology, but part of the same path: a life of awareness, reflection, and participation in the living cosmos.
As an astrologer, I interpret the language and symbols of the sky to help you see corresponding patterns in your life.
A daily horoscope is like an ever-evolving map that guides us back to our spirit and soul.
It connects us to the divine and reminds us that the events of our lives are the sacred reflection of an ordered and beautiful cosmos. A daily horoscope is something we can look to for guidance in times of calm or chaos.
For me, the greatest reward on Earth is seeing people light up with spiritual realization during a daily forecast or birth chart reading.
I don’t claim to have all the answers but I’m committed to serving others as an informed interpreter, dedicated guide, and friendly source of astrological insight.

As a teacher, I strive to make the most complex concepts of astrology approachable and applicable to students of all levels.
Over the past decade, diverse teachers have shaped my astrological education.
From plant teachers who taught me how to open myself to the voice of spirit, to formal teachers who taught me the practical history, craft, and philosophy of astrology. I’ve also cultivated a dedicated Bhakti yoga practice that guides my work as an astrologer each and every day.
I weave these teachings, along with the philosophical and practical aspects of ancient astrology, into my online astrology certification courses.
My goal is to give you a practical and spiritual platform from which to view and practice astrology in the world today.
Through private apprenticeships, I guide other astrologers through their studies in a highly-personalized setting, with the unique opportunity to gain experience working directly with clients.
