Hi! And Welcome!

How can I emphasize that word “welcome” so that you hear my heart in it? My name is Linden, and I am an astrologer. It is my life purpose to help you feel welcome, to help you feel worthy, to help you feel present and comfortable in your own life. I believe most of us spend a lifetime trying to figure out who we are and what gives our lives true meaning and joy.  What if there was a shortcut? What if we each sent ourselves a little cheat sheet that explains ourselves to … ourselves?

This is my philosophy of astrology in a nutshell: At the moment of our birth we sent ourselves a little love note which is our Natal (or Birth) Chart. This chart or “snapshot of the sky at the moment of our birth” is a blueprint for our unique path to a fulfilling, joy-filled life. Do you want to know who you are? How to be the best you possible?

Find an astrologer—a good or even great astrologer—and spend some quality time with them. If they “speak the language” and truly care about you and your story they can help. The story of you is written in the stars and is available in your chart. All you need is an interpreter. I am an interpreter. I yearn to tell you the story of you. I believe that we would all follow our life’s purpose—follow our hearts—if only we knew how to understand this story. Let me take you on the journey of your life!

A Little About Me

I have been interested in astrology since I was ten years old. My first astrology mentor, Maridel Bowes, is an evolutionary astrologer and studied with Steven Forrest, the father of this branch of astrological technique. Subsequently I studied with Kelly Surtees and began to incorporate traditional astrology techniques and wisdom into my practice.

Currently, I offer natal, predictive, career and relationship chart readings (check out my services here!). Additionally, I am an intuitive tarot card reader, medium, and “wise woman” offering house blessings, smudging, and general earth-based remedies and counseling. I live in Salem, Oregon in a tiny cottage with my Scorpio assistant, Hamish the Scotty dog.
