in pursuit of a world in which it is easier to love
ASTROLOGY + REIKI + RITUAL
OFFERINGS
Astrology
A means through which to guide introspection, explore our connections to the universe and add new layers to the stories that help us understand our lives, astrology is the language of the stars. It reminds us that we’re intimately linked to the many realms of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual existence. As above, so below.
Reiki Energy Healing
A Japanese healing tradition, reiki (霊気) translates to “spiritual energy.” Its practices cleanse and align the chakras while elevating the frequency of consciousness toward an alignment with unconditional love.
Personalized Ritual Items
Current astrological transits and reiki-identified energy centers can be systematically tended to through intentional engagement with Earth-based practices that fit your needs and your busy life. Think stones, incense, candles, scents, colors and other carefully selected, nature-sourced tools to enhance your spiritual practices and daily rituals.
together, we will embrace chaos & seek balance
Meet Dr. Shelley Maddox
Born in Nashville, Tennessee, I am at home in the forests of the PNW. I studied Philosophy of Education in Seattle and Chicago and am positively obsessed with the transformation of power dynamics in the spaces of everyday life, including our families, our friendships and our intimate relationships. I believe that relationships are an ideological site of informal education where we can all intentionally intervene in order to co-create new realities and new political futures.
