Hi!

Thanks for visiting my site 😊 I love learning and sharing astrology because it helps us really get to know ourselves and each other. As one of my students said beautifully, wanting to understand and learn about others is activism in our culture because understanding isn't the norm. In this way, I'm definitely an activist!

About Me

I'm from the Pacific Northwest. Seattle (originally Kent) is my hometown, and my maternal roots here go back 6 generations. Over the past 10 years, I moved to Brooklyn and LA with my husband, and now we're back in Seattle.

 

My last name, "Aal," means eel in Norwegian. Eels remain a mystery, even to scientists dedicated to their study. I've grown to deeply appreciate and honor the mystery in life and each of us. I love weaving art and soul through pretty much everything I do.

 

I began practicing astrology and tarot in 2011. Overall, I consider myself an eclectic, imaginal, experiential, evolutionary, relational, therapy-informed (Internal Family Systems) astrologer. I will bring in any tools, techniques, practices, modalities, or ideas that are useful in opening us up to more acceptance, compassion, and inspiration.​

 

I completed Laura Nalbandian's 3-year evolutionary astrology program and Adam Gainsburg's Soulsign Astrology program. I've studied esoteric astrology with Alan Oken and I'm currently in Aswin Subramanyan's Indian Astrology Diploma program. I continue learning different perspectives and techniques. ​
