I’m Nicole.

I am a Relational Astrologer, which means that I practice astrology as a way to weave the thinking mind back into the body, back into the Earth, back into the Cosmos — back into relationship and rhythm. All my life, I have found myself (both literally and figuratively) playing in the intertidal zone between the Ocean and the Land, between the deep unconscious and the conscious mind. And now, in my work —

I help people who identify as highly sensitive and often find themselves swimming in the more intuitive or subtle felt senses, to more fully inhabit their unique perspective and inner authority. To trust their ability to walk on land amidst many others, while staying connected to their own inner voice.

I also help people who are more intellectually oriented to access and trust their intuition, instincts and imagination. To trust that more expansive answers and visions are on the other side of confusion and not-knowing. To trust that the void is a fertile void, not empty.

Often in spiritual circles, the thinking mind is seen as problematic because it perceives itself as separate from Nature, and then tends to tell stories and build worlds from this illusion of disconnection and dis-embeddedness. Yet, the mind is a part of our wholeness and our evolutionary journey, and it is here now to play a beautiful role in the remembrance of our multi-dimensional intelligence and a living wisdom.

Likewise, in a left-brain dominant culture, the nonrational and nonlinear are often seen as problematic because they are chaotic, unpredictable, uncontrollable, ungovernable. And yet, again, the nonrational aspects of ourselves are a “part” (the ever-present backdrop of Night) of our wholeness and our evolutionary journey, and are here now to play a beautiful role in the remembrance of our multi-dimensional intelligence and a living wisdom.

So, in my work I offer various modes of contemplation to support the mind in moving out of the driver’s seat and into the essential supporting role of experiencing curiosity, communicating, sharing awe, wonder and delight, as well as participating and sharing power with the rest of our being (intuitive, instinctual, imaginal) in the holographic dreaming of reality. Through astrology, myth, somatic self-inquiry and flower essences, you are supported in seeing the Dream that is currently constellating within your perceptual field and organizing your reality. And you can replenish and re-dream these Dreams by visiting the deep archetypal waters through the portal of your own direct experience and contemplations.

And the real beauty is that when we do steward the multi-dimensionality of our intelligence, and practice our innate powers of intention, attention/attending, and trusting what arises within that field — it is easier to experience magic in the mundane.

Every day becomes an ongoing contemplation, revelation and conversation with Soul.
