Hi, I'm Kris.
I began learning astrology from my family’s large esoteric library in my early teens (shoutout to Linda Goodman, one of astrology’s great popularizers). I’ve since studied at an advanced level for more than two decades, learning from a number of expert, world-renowned astrologers, and have been consulting professionally since 2018.
Completing several years of private study with the brilliant astrologer and goddess asteroid expert Dawn Bogrodi was my start in what I now call, only somewhat tongue in cheek, serious astrology. Good astrologers love to learn throughout their lives. At present, I continue astrological education and research through a variety of avenues.
Astrological background
I am certified as a professional astrologer with the Organization for Professional Astrology (OPA). I was the teaching assistant for the Relationships and Astrology course taught by the eminent astrologers and therapists Margaret Gray, Kay Taylor, Rachel Lang, and Yvonne Smith-Tarnas in 2022-2023. I write for and am a member of the editorial board for OPA’s magazine, The Evolving Astrologer.
Since 2019, I’ve also worked with the Roundout Valley Holistic Health Community. Consultations are generally conducted remotely except by special arrangement.
Every chart is an encounter with recognition, awe, wonder.
More about Kris
As a feminist who grew up working class in a multiracial family and influenced by the Riot Grrl and DIY/punk scenes, I consider social justice elementary. I studied the history of philosophy at St. John’s College in Santa Fe and at the University of Chicago. I’ve also had a career as a writer and editor with a focus in progressive politics, health, and academia, all of which make their way into my approach to astrology.
I am honored to support all who are seeking their truth, regardless of race, class, culture, gender, country, or who you love.
I also believe support should be available to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances. To participate in creating a world in which that’s the case, I offer sliding-scale sessions to anyone who needs them, no questions asked. For more information, see the FAQs on my consultations page.
You’ll see pictures from adventures with Miles, my longtime lab/Dane companion, on this site—the best dog anyone could have asked for (RIP Sep. 10, 2021). I live in New York State’s beautiful Hudson Valley on the traditional lands of the Kanien’keháka and Muh-he-con-neok peoples, today known as the Mohawk and Mohican tribes.
Wherever you are on your path, astrology has profound insights to share.
