"Wow! I've had a few readings over the years, but I have never had one like this! The blueprint reading is next next (next) level!! Sam brings such depth, knowledge, and warmth to the session... it's like talking to a really wise best friend. I often get confused with astrology and all the trines and retrogrades, but Sam broke it down in a way that I could digest and understand. Also, the blueprint reading affirmed a lot of the things I knew innately, but reading it in a report just made it that much more tangible. I highly recommend Sam and if you have questions about your path/purpose, I strongly urge you to try the blueprint reading. Thank you so much, Sam!" - Jordan C

"Samantha is a wonderful healer with powerful insight. Her readings are extremely thorough and personal. I’ve always had trouble reading my birth chart and couldn’t really understand the houses and why they influence us so much, but she was able to hold my hand and walk me through every aspect of the report. The reading was extremely accurate and helped me understand the areas that are influencing me the most. If you are looking for guidance and clarification on why you tic the way you tic, please seek guidance from her readings. I came into the reading with just curiosity and came out with a better understanding of myself. It was intense and empowering. She helps you step into your power and understand the areas that need to be worked on. I truly appreciate her insight, gift, and guidance. She is wonderfully intuitive! I appreciate her opening up your healing channel to my energy. I'm lucky to have met a powerful individual who has harnessed her abilities. I feel blessed by her spiritual guidance!" - Marianne G

"Sam is an incredibly gifted and knowledgeable astrologer. Sam presents a great deal of complex information in a very accessible way, and she also infuses a sense of warmth and levity to an otherwise vulnerable experience. Sam's blueprint reading really brings a mirror to the personality traits and patterns you've likely noticed but may not have fully explored. I found it to be a meaningful opportunity to engage in self-reflection and to reassess some of the ways that I engage in my work, in how I channel my energy, and in my relationships. Highly recommend giving yourself the gift of this self-exploratory Blueprint Reading with Sam." - Elika R

"Whether you're going in blind or looking for further explanation, clarification, and validation for your past actions and future plans, Samantha covers all of your bases from a place of love and kindness. She reveals what you previously weren't able to put into words with how you are/think and offers you insight on how to best navigate through life given who you are at your core. I can't recommend her enough!" - Michael A.

"Samantha is one of the few people I trust when it comes to looking at my chart and energy. When it came to my partner and I, it was an easy decision to get a deeper honest look at our relationship related with the stars and a little taste of the Mayan cosmology as well. It was heart opening and full of ease as well as depth. Samantha is an excellent surgeon of truth, delivering information masterfully that otherwise might trigger the defenses. She is a true seer and graceful holder of truth. Thank you Samantha, we loved it and your session helped us tremendously as well as verified so much." - Connor and Mary

"Samantha is amazing. Very professional and grounded in our session. It is clear from our session that she is knowledgable and passionate to share and be a guide in a space that can be confusing at times. Her knowledge of multiple schools of thought comes through as she warmly guided me through the chart that was prepared for me. Our session resonated with me in a strongly affirming way that acknowledges different peaks and valleys in my near future. I'm happy to now have an energetic road map that's been helpful in guiding my focus especially when things inevitably feel aimless." - Lucas C

"Samantha's skills as an astrologer are unmatched. We received the relationship synastry/composite chart reading and it was incredibly helpful in understanding our strengths and weaknesses as a couple. This type of reading is such a beautiful way to dive into the psychology of our relationship while honoring the best ways we can show up for each other every day. We spent days afterwards discussing the major takeaways together and marveling at how accurate the reading was. Samantha does an incredible job of breaking down the astrology in digestible terms and even provides an in-depth write up for us to keep! We are so blown away and incredibly thankful for her gifts!" - Nicole & Robert

"Samantha is a highly skilled astrologer with a wealth of knowledge and an in depth background in the subject. She gave me insight that was helpful, grounding and accurate. She offers a variety of offerings and is consistently learning and growing within her field of study. I feel so lucky to have found an astrologer who is as devoted to her craft and her clients as Samantha is and recommend her to all." - Alex Y

"Samantha has done multiple session for me including a Natal Chart reading, transits reading, and most recently as astrocartography reading. I was blown away by her accuracy in my natal chart reading (the first session I ever did with her), so now I use her as my regular astrologer. I had never heard of an astrocartography reading before Samantha, but I am so glad I did it! I move quite often, and now I understand different places in the world that I should consider moving and traveling too based upon her reading. The reading opened up my eyes to new possibilities and made me eve more excited for my future. Samantha is thorough in her reports and readings, and well-versed in her craft. Don't wait any longer to book your session!" - Rachel S

"If you’re thinking about booking a session, just do it! Sam is absolutely amazing at what she does. She’s positive and bright and a joy to work with. She creates a wonderful safe space, too. I walked away from our one on one astrology session with so much perspective, clarity, and insight into some events that had cropped up in my life that I felt that I needed help wrapping my head around. 5 stars! Would absolutely recommend working with Samantha in any way you feel called to do." - KT

"From Samantha's comments about how things have been for me in the past months or year and those comments being so accurate, I felt a lot of confidence in the comments that came next. I feel a calmness and confidence that I am going in the right direction in my life. I was fairly uncertain before the reading. I was also moved with a feeling of being surrounded by guides and helpers and ancestors. This is new to me. I hope I can recognize the feeling when it comes around again. Thank you Samantha for your time and for sharing the gift you bring to those of us who are blessed to know you." - Becky V

"Receiving my birth chart reading focused on my Saturn return with Samantha was a deeply supportive and insightful experience for my psyche. She navigates the stars with profound knowledge and dedication. The alignment between her astrological practice and the inner work she’s done in her own life is clearly present. Her ability to bridge theory and practice allowed me to understand her insights more deeply and to truly trust her words. In my view, the unique information and energy that each astrologer offers often corresponds with the planetary energy the seeker most needs to hear at that time. In this way, Samantha was the perfect ambassador for Saturn’s voice, bringing clarity to a part of my path that needed it most. Even though I study a more open, Jungian and psychological approach to astrology, it was incredibly enriching to receive her direct and precise reading. It complemented my perspective beautifully. Throughout the entire process, I felt truly cared for and held." - Micaela C

"Samantha is so thorough. Her depth and way of sharing insights into my world through astrology and her embodied understanding and lived wisdom of life is so nourishing, illuminating, and supportive. It feels like I can rest into the words she speaks, fully trusting her expertise and how those expertise weave with a deeper intuitive pulse that Samantha inhabits. Her ongoing support is mind-blowing. I feel her there, unwaveringly, if I need to recount, reach out or ask for further guidance. She leaves no stone unturned and has an amazing capacity to draw threads together and offer an integrated and multifaceted reading that touches on so many avenues and aspects of life. I admire her depth of understanding of life and how she offers this wisdom in a way that is compassionate and deeply seeing. I feel really seen and understood. She is solid. I have an intrinsic trust in Samantha's work, who she is and what she offers. I highly recommend working with her." - Olivia G

"Everything you said was spot on about my past and present. The way you explained my Saturn return was extremely helpful and made me feel secure on my path. Thank you so much!" - Natalie Y

"My astrocartography reading with Samantha came at the perfect time. I was struggling to find clarity on either going back to California or staying in Canada, and her readings helped me so much towards my decision. Her astrocartography report blew my MIND afterwards!!! She included the entire list of all of my lines and the meanings of them such as Sun, Moon, Chiron, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, etc. and the places where those lines are located from my specific chart. She even shared my evolution of self, home, career and relationship lines and they were soo helpful as well. Loved her energy, and I can tell she has a deep love for what she does. Excited for anyone else to get a reading if they are feeling stuck, or needs direction. Thank you Samantha!" - Ami

"I always gain so much wisdom and guidance during my sessions with Samantha, and my Astrology of 2025 session was especially powerful. I'm clear on how to best focus my time and energy, and I feel confident and supported entering this new year. An especially valuable part of the session was when Samantha pointed out key transits and what they mean for me (e.g. in career, love, home life). She gave specific guidance on how to maximize the positive aspects of these transits, and these broad themes are instrumental in helping me plan my year ahead. I'm newer to astrology and still learning basic concepts and vocabulary, and Samantha is endlessly patient and explains things in a way that makes sense to me. Samantha is intuitive, compassionate and gifted, and I consider her to be a key support and guide as I navigate my way through life." - Jane C

"Sam is a brilliant interpreter of Astrology and Human Design. She blew me away during our astrology & human design reading with her compassion, knowledge, and genuine investment in my past, present, and future journeys. I walked away feeling enlightened and more assured in my personal and professional paths than ever before. This was two hours of serious self care." - Tanza L

"Sessions with Sam are always amazing! Most recently I had a natal chart reading, which exceeded all expectations. The level of detail and accuracy was astounding. The same goes for the tarot readings I have had from Sam in the past. Messages are so personal and so spot-on. I know I will always leave a session with Sam with many incredible messages and things to reflect on. I would highly recommended any of her offerings!" - Sophia T

"I’m so grateful for the clarity and insight Samantha provided around my current transits and the year ahead. Her approach to astrology is so much more than just stars and signs, it’s about weaving together ancestral wisdom and deep personal growth. She has a beautiful way of blending her passion healing with her astrological knowledge, which made our session feel deeply empowering and transformative. If you're seeking guidance that connects the dots between your personal journey and cosmic cycles, I can’t recommend her enough!" - Alisha S

"Samantha's explanation of what's going on in my natal chart is so interesting and helpful, and her delivery is calm and helpful. She's great (and dead on!) at explaining what I may be experiencing now and in the near future, given my chart. Talking to her is like having coffee with a good friend whose experience and sage advice leaves you feeling centered, confident, and refreshed. It helps to provide context for what I'm feeling and going through." - Katie P

"My reading with Samantha came at a time of a major turning point in my life and informed my decisions greatly. Samantha was able to accurately reflect back to me what was important to pay attention to and what was no longer serving me professionally and personally. I left the reading with a sense of confidence and deeply felt that the reading ultimately foretold a major career milestone. I refer friends and family to my girl Samantha all the time!" - Zeeko Z.

“Samantha is so incredible! She provides such a safe space for anyone, especially as a newbie into astrology and tarot. I loved how graceful and knowledgable she was in dissecting my birth chart. I felt so seen, heard and guided with her. Cannot recommend her enough to anyone wanting to expand their consciousness and connection with themselves and the universe! Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with us." - Madison T

"Samantha is the most spot on and incredibly talented tarot card reader/spiritual guide I have ever been to. I don't say that lightly. I did my first reading with her when I was visiting LA, and I haven't been to anyone else since. She's scarily accurate, incredibly kind, and gracious with her time and energy. She really wants to make sure that you get a proper reading, based on the intention you set and what you want to know." - Noor A

"We invited Samantha to our office summer party, and everyone was blown away by the intuitive nature of her and her readings. She does a great job connecting with each person individually, and providing written insight on each reading. The process was swift and easy, and she was very accommodating with our schedule, guests, and location. She brought the perfect energy to our gathering, and we will definitely be seeing more of her in the future." - Sarah K

"I found Samantha via a podcast she was featured on and instantly resonated with her insight. I quickly booked a card reading and am so happy I did. Her readings are like getting a big, warm, cosmic hug. The reading is thoughtful and oh so powerful - it really helped me out somethings I was struggling with into clear perspective. I can’t recommend Samantha enough." - Ella D.

I received a reading from Samantha for my birthday and it was one of the best gifts I've ever received! She is a true artisan with her decks and reads from a place of clarity, intuition, and compassion. I felt safe and comfortable to share some details of my current situation, which felt right to share after Samantha provided very astute and resonant opening cards in our session. She was professional but friendly and she gave me a much better understanding of the factors I'm currently working with as well as things to look out for as I navigate the future. I really appreciated how attuned she was both to me and to her decks, and she collaborated with me to follow certain threads or ask new questions to get a better sense of what was present. I felt thoroughly seen and taken care of. I also really enjoyed that she pulled from multiple decks; I wasn't sure if it would feel disjointed but she wove them all together expertly and now I can't imagine getting a reading any other way! She also told me she has been working with one deck since she was 13! I will be back again and I highly recommend working with her, you won't regret it. " - Ariana M

"Samantha is amazing! She was able to hone in on important aspects of my chart that I wanted to know about. She was thorough and her explanations were precise and easy to understand. Her tarot card reading was exceptional and spot on. I've had numerous readings of my chart and tarot so I have no hesitation in recommending her full on! Samantha is professional and very knowledgeable." - Jane H

“As a Midwesterner raised on traditional Christian values, I approached my Tarot reading with caution and skepticism. However, I can truly say that after my reading I not only fully believe in the craft but also feel resolved in what we were able to take away from my reading. This visit was not only eye opening but very productive. Can’t wait for my follow up reading!”- Taylor F

"I enjoyed so much the sessions, both astrological and tarot sessions were so nice and accurate. I love the passion and professionalism Samantha imprinted. I know there is a lot of information to handle, and connecting everything in a joyful way with dynamism is her thing! I completely recommend her service, it gave me more clarification and confirmation in things I was really looking forward to resolve." - Leslye T

"After my Reiki session with Samantha my mind felt clearer, my body ached less, and my heart felt a little less broken. She has a warm touch, a calming voice, and truly heals with her hands. I've been through a lot in these last few years- and she could feel the tension and heartache I carried inside from childhood. I think our session was successful, and I am looking forward to ongoing sessions with her for long term benefits on my healing journey." - Aurora A.

"Samantha is an incredibly gifted and intuitive healer. Her wisdom shines through during every tarot reading, and her connection to Spirit is unmistakeable. I discovered so much about my body and mind during our reiki session, and will definitely be back for more energy work. Do yourself a favor and get in touch!" - Robert L
