Scorpio Sun, Gemini Moon, Pisces Rising

My life has been a blend of various themes, constantly balancing my intuition with a critical approach to information.

 

My name is Giselle. I'm 37 years old and was born in Brazil, in a small town nestled in the mountains of Minas Gerais. I am the daughter of an intuitive woman and a skeptical businessman. My mom often says that my interest in the occult has been present for as long as she can remember. As a very young child, I would play by brewing potions and reciting spells that came to me intuitively.

 

In fact, my connection to spiritual practices has always been strong, intrinsic, and intuitive. With a Gemini Moon in the 3rd house, I was an avid learner and reader and as a teenager, I became obsessed with studying occult themes, ancient history, and the cosmos.

 

In 2003, when I was 15 or 16, I met a tarot reader and asked her to teach me. She became my mentor, and through her, I had my first experience with Tarot and Astrology. My studies continued over the years, even when I decided to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Statistics. I became known as the tarot reader at the University and spent the next few years reading tarot for hundreds of students. Around this time, my interest in Astrology also peaked. I began balancing my university studies with learning astrology, spending my evenings devouring books by Liz Greene, Robert Hand and Dane Rudhyar.

 

In 2013, I moved to the Netherlands, where I still live and where I earned a Master's degree in Econometrics. Here, I also decided to pursue a formal education in Astrology, obtaining a degree in Psychological Astrology from CPA London (Liz Greene’s school of psychological astrology) and MISPA (founded by one of CPA’s teachers).

 

Since finishing my MSc studies over 10 years ago, I have built a successful career in Data Science while also working as a professional astrologer. I realized that my love for science and numbers needed to coexist with my passion for teaching and counselling through Astrology and esoteric practices.

 

In addition to holding a BSc in Statistics, a MSc in Econometrics, and a degree in Psychological Astrology, I am also a certified energy healer, having completed the first five levels of Pranic Healing and first level of Arhatic Yoga, a journey that began in 2008.

 

With Saturn conjunct my Midheaven and four planets in my 8th house, I tend to take on too much at times, as you can probably guess by now. But honestly, life would feel dull any other way.
