The Four Pillars

Honoring the Lineage of my Soul-Centered Astrology

My work stands on the shoulders of four visionary astrologers who shaped my understanding of the cosmos as a map for soul awakening and earthly healing. Each of these guides brings a distinct elemental essence to the Stellar Story framework — together forming a circle of remembrance, rooted in myth, psychology, spirituality, and embodied medicine.

Steven Forrest – The Soul’s Navigator (Fire Element)

Pioneer of Evolutionary Astrology

Steven Forrest’s legacy is in mapping the soul’s evolution across lifetimes through the lunar nodes — the South Node as karmic memory, and the North Node as the soul’s growth frontier. His work integrates metaphysical insight with a firebrand clarity and compassion, making complex ideas feel human and alive.

Steven doesn’t treat astrology as a belief system, but as a language for liberation. He brings fire not only as passion, but as the sacred forge where old identities are burned away, and something luminous is born. His influence lives in every question I ask of a chart:
What is your soul remembering, what wounds to be healed?
What is your evolutionary destiny with what gifts to give?

He is the flame that guides the seeker toward the path of purpose.

Daniel Giamario – The Skywalker

(Air Element)

Founder of Turning of the Ages Mystery School, formerly Shamanic Astrology.

Daniel Giamario offers a cosmology where the planets live in three worlds:

The Overworld (Uranus, Neptune) – spiritual/transpersonal
The Middle World (personal and social planets) – our human life and roles
The Underworld (Pluto, Chiron) – soul-level transformation

In this view, the Moon shows where we’re coming from and the Sun is energy in motion — a sacred interplay of past imprint and present radiance. Daniel’s shamanic and ceremonial approach roots astrology in ritual, myth, and sky observation. He teaches that we do not simply analyze charts — we co-create with the living cosmos.

He is the wind through the branches, reminding us to look up, look in, and remember our original instructions.

Glenn Perry – The Architect of Becoming (Earth Element)

Founder of AstroPsychology

Glenn Perry grounds astrology in the life cycle of psychological development, aligning the twelve zodiac signs with distinct phases of human growth. In his hands, the birth chart becomes a blueprint for conscious maturation, not a static destiny.

He weaves together Jungian depth, developmental theory, and human potential psychology. His teachings help us understand not just what we are — but where we are in our unfolding. What may seem like crisis is often a rite of passage.

He is the mountain path beneath our feet, helping us find meaning in the rhythm of growth and integration.

Ingrid Naiman – The Soul Healer (Water Element)

Pioneer of Medical Astrology & Energetic Healing

Ingrid Naiman devoted her life to astrology as a tool for healing body, psyche, and spirit. Her teachings on the First Wound — early-life trauma encoded through hard aspects from outer planets — gave language to the places in our charts that ache to be seen, held, and restored.

Drawing from Ayurveda, energetic medicine, and astro-herbalism, she viewed the body as a sacred map and astrology as its key. Ingrid reminded us that healing is not separate from our cosmic story — it is the story.

She is the sacred well — the one who whispers: go deeper, and you will find the medicine.
