About Diotima

I began studying astrology in 1969, taking classes from Zoltan Mason in New York City. For the next 22 years, I practiced astrology only for myself and my friends, continuing my studies while watching an increasingly humanistic, psychologically oriented, modern astrology blossom through the work of leading astrologers such as Noel Tyl, Liz Greene, Rob Hand, Marion March, Stephen Arroyo and Howard Sasportas.

In 1986, I began reading Tarot, and discovered that I am a gifted intuitive. In 1991, I started practicing both astrology and Tarot professionally. I view astrology and Tarot as tools for understanding our lives in the context of a holographic, holistic universe, in which each part reflects and is connected to the whole.

My personal spiritual path is rooted in the Western Mystery Traditions, the principles of Yoga, and a profound connection with the natural world. I follow a Wiccan path, and utilize various magical and shamanic practices for healing and to live in harmony with Nature. Over 15 years of studying Chinese martial arts has given me a deep appreciation of Taoist thought, and I believe that Consciousness is the source of the reality we experience.
