Praise from Students and Clients
Praise for Christina
It was slightly unnerving to have someone see my personality and soul so effortlessly - but Christina didn't ever act judgemental. I would recommend Christina because I have followed her for years and gravitate to her style that is both caring and fierce, that is deeply knowledgeable yet curious.
— Kirsten Harris
Christina is present, integrated and clearly a master of her craft.
She feels like a teammate cheering you on, highlighting the wisdom of astrology and giving clients clarity on their own internal wisdom.
— Britta S.
I absolutely loved my soul astrology reading for its depth of perception, extraordinary insight and how it so accurately described exactly what I am currently experiencing, as well as my overall personality, soul character and past. The guidance Christina offered was perfect.
— Helen Cameron
I felt at ease immediately with Christina and could sense the depth of her listening. She said something so empowering to me that I began to change the attitude I had towards myself! She affirmed what has been a lifetime of working on myself to understand.
— Teresa Ramsey
I really appreciated the space Christina created that felt safe for opening up with some of my most sensitive inquiries. The session felt grounded in sincerity and authenticity, and Christina brings genuine warmth and compassion to her sessions. She gives client inquiries the respect and reverence they deserve.

Praise for Fern
Fern's classes and sessions are dynamic, fun, and truly bring out the wisdom of her students... Experiencing her presence and wisdom is such a gift.
— Jackie Johnson, Astrologer
“I really appreciated the care and tending of the group that Fern offered. I liked her emphasis on ritual and reverence. The slides were clear and visually inviting. Fern obviously has been working and living these concepts. I was excited to see you attracted a diverse group of students to the topic and was glad to hear those voices during group meetings. Really great all around experience. Thank you.”
“I want to tell you what a joy it has been taking this class from you [Fern]. I’ve started studying Astrology several times, but never really got past the initial information. Looking at transits last week was a breakthrough. You got me farther than I ever expected to be and I’m so grateful.”
— Jessica Strange
"I thought the class was expertly delivered, and even though it was zoom, it didn't matter really, it was more just the energy and the space that was held. Fern is clearly a very experienced teacher."
"Your work is I want to say 'profound' though that's a word that's seems overly used but it's true. Your work is healing and profound in a deep, quiet way like the water found running through a radiant cave. At least that's how it's been for me. Your classes help focus, soothe and energize me in a positive way. Thank you!"
