readings
I was very lucky to grow up in a lineage that wove together Western mysticism and transpersonal psychology, surrounded by the rituals of growing and cooking food. My current practice with Tarot and astrology began in 2015, when I worked with a farmer who taught me about planting seeds with the moon, the orbits of the planets, and the pulse that connects everything animate in this world. At the time I was teaching cooking and garden education at a residential semester program for high schoolers, and saw in real time how the moon was affecting not only the seeds, but the people and animals around me as well.
My client readings focus on developing strategies through this connection with the invisible world that moves through us, and using the birth chart as a resource to understand the unique role and contribution we are here to offer. I have completed courses in medical astrology and astroherbalism, and over 1,000 reading hours for private clients and events over the past seven years.
Working with the tools of your birth chart, Human Design, and the cards, we’ll refine your personal narrative, clear out the energetic gunk from the past, and map a path forward that is both empowering and playful, beautiful and down to earth.
clients words
Maya’s ability to connect one’s astrological chart to daily existence is truly a spiritual gift. She has guided our family through our unspoken connections for many years, giving insight into my husband and I’s relationship, our personal journies through time, and now each of our daughter’s own unique paths. Her knowledge is matched by her clear passion and intuitiveness regarding the art of astrology. She has the ability to piece together details that move fluidly all around each of her clients, and pull them into a succinct and clear guiding map. We are so thankful for her insight. Those that work with her are blessed to experience the pureness of her presence. -MM
Maya! Where do I even begin. You are such a light in our lives. I don’t really know how to put it into words but somehow you walk this line of making everything fun and exciting and somehow instantly calming. Whenever I’m at a crossroads I know a reading with you will give me all the information I need and more, and I listen back to our recordings whenever I need reminding. - KM
Thank you so much for our reading last night. It was so magical and really solidified some feelings and thoughts I had about J and me. It was such a gift to hear your reading and your intuition and thoughts. I'm so happy to know you. I cannot say thank you enough. - AF
Hi Maya, I’ve been meaning to write to you for awhile and let you know that the reading you shared with me on my bday was really meaningful and served like a key or the actual glue that brought together a lot of experiences in the weeks following our reading, with sparkling clarity and humbling heart opening wonder and gratitude. I have a memory of you saying during the reading “I am not being articulate” after a long farm day and I want you to know that articulate or not, you were tuned in and on point and made a real difference in my life and helped open up something for me that…Like, no words! thank you, for all the time spent with me and also all of the everything that went into showing up for me in that kind of way. I figured you probably had no idea it had this impact and wanted you to know that it did! - NF
I met Maya and instantly felt how sweet, genuine, and intuitive she is. I’d never had a reading before but had always wanted one, and after meeting her I knew she was the astrologer for me. In my reading she was so spot on and well-versed, I felt so intimately seen, heard, and cared for. And so excited! We could have talked about life for hours. Speaking with Maya was fun, insightful, and comforting. I’ve sent lots of friends to her and can’t wait to book another little check in soon :) - CM
Crossing paths with Maya has been such an honor and rare opportunity. She manages so effortlessly stand out in the very crowded space of astrology, tarot reading, and the universe. Every session and encounter feels so personalized and thoughtful. It not only speaks to her work ethic, but her extraordinary character. I’ve had the ability to see Maya work with groups and individuals. Nothing limits her reach. One of the things that draws me most to her methods is her ability to articulate complex information in a digestible, understandable way. She’s very special and recommend her to everyone! - AS
Sometimes, someone walks into your life at the exact moment that you need them. I met Maya serendipitously at the farmers market in Greenpoint, and I immediately felt an inexplicable kinship. A few weeks later, I sat in her living room for an astrology reading and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. I have always loved astrology but in a very casual way. Maya broke down my birth chart with so much gentle prowess. She allowed me to move past the archetype of my sign and into a much deeper meaning of self. What does it look like to embrace my idiosyncrasies? To move in unison with my chart rather than force myself into a form of what I think a person should be? Maya, with her compassionate wisdom, has fostered an introspection of love and ambition. I have no doubt this reading will alter the course of my everyday life and therefore my larger trajectory as well. Thank you, Maya! Sending you love. - HWK
Maya is as bright as the stars she’s reading. When her eyes meet yours you know she’s reading more than your facial expressions, she’s reading who you are, where you’ve been, and where you could be going. Her depth and knowledge of astronomy and astrology is evident the minute she opens her mouth. She’ll give you as much as you give her. You can be as open and honest with her as you would be with yourself. This was more than a reading, it was a journey through life, love, and acceptance. Totally and completely enlightening. - AP
My reading with Maya was incredible powerful and left me feeling empowered and energized about my future. She speaks with an intuition that made me feel comfortable and confident in my ability to overcome. At a time when I had several big decisions to make and was going through a major transition period, her insight was invaluable. Maya is a gift from the stars and I am so lucky to have found her. - AZ
“I had an hour drive and just listened to our session from May 30th, and it feels like we just hung out, so many little golden nuggets to reflect on. Sweet Maya! You’re so astute and exuberant.” - CB
Maya’s readings are deeply meaningful. Her understanding of the signs and the ways in which they relate to one another blows me away. Somehow she always knows what to say in response to a life event, and I find her presence so calming and supportive. She is wise and so generous with her knowledge, I feel blessed to know her! - CF
“Maya marries the skills of both an astrologer and a poet. As someone who knows a decent amount of astrology herself, I am always refreshed with Maya’s unique perspective and loving care with my placements and more deeply, understanding my energy and its unique expression. She handles her readings with love and sensitivity, clear seeing and scientific precision. Her words are hers alone and they flow through her with resonance. She consistently waters her practice, bringing new information and aspects to the table that open new portals of depth for me over and over again. I am so grateful to connect with her guidance and receive her natural flow with the stars. Thank you Maya!” - TF
