My journey with astrology began over a decade ago in North London, under the tutelage of Sue Merlyn Farebrother, a practical, grounded teacher with a rigorous, no-nonsense approach.
At that point astrology gripped me and refused to let go, as it tends to do with some of us who end up working with it.
Since then I have immersed myself in this ancient art, deepening and broadening my knowledge, tracking planetary movements in my own life and across world events while also navigating a high-stakes career in the media industry and raising a young family.
In my media role covering politics, tech and finance, I worked in the orbit of global political leaders, startup founders, investors and artists. I am deeply grateful for the front-row seat it gave me to world events and to how power, money and influence shape stories that in turn shape the world.
In 2024 I began seeing private clients. A year later, I launched Mainly Mundane, a publication dedicated to astro-journalism, historical cycle tracking and predictive forecasting.
Lineage & Methodological Approach
My practice is deeply influenced by the work of Richard Tarnas, Bernadette Brady and Geoffrey Cornelius. I focus on planetary cycles, analysing how historical patterns, symbolic archetypes and family stories repeat across time.
My primary analytical toolkit includes transits, secondary progressions, with a focus on the 29-year progressed lunar cycle, as well as targeted asteroid work.
I work flexibly across quadrant house systems and Whole Sign Houses. For time-sensitive and specific questions I use horary astrology, a precise divinatory tradition formalised by the 17th-century English astrologer William Lilly.
