ABOUT
The Lion…
The etymology of the name “Archibald” is genuine and bold. It symbolizes the lion-heart, boldly going where others fear to tread. It embodies all that this business stands for. It also happens to be the name of one of the most beloved and significant characters in my life, my “Lion”.
Archie Astrology was founded in 2019, in honor of my grandfather—the man responsible for my deep respect for nature, my witchy inclinations, and my courage. I am eternally grateful for his unconditional love, for seeing value in me when no one else did, and for giving me the courage to step away from the crowd and stand alone—the courage to clear a new and better path. The work I do here is in remembrance and in honor of Archie.
The Witch…
Long walks through the wood watching my grandfather divine for water, gather herbs and medicinals, and distill the harvest into moonshine whisky, gave me a deep respect for the natural world and the spiritual realms. The experience birthed a solitary witch, with a penchant for astrology, devoted to Circe. Circe committed herself to exposing lies and revealing the truth. I have researched difficult astrological concepts like “how could Saturn, the planet of restriction, possibly be the ruler of the eleventh house, the house of freedom?” I have meditated and intuited on these topics until truth reveals itself. Saturn is not the planet of restriction. He is the planet of self-governance. Self-governance is the precursor of freedom. Saturn is Chronos—father time. This means he is not only the ruler of our past, he is the ruler of our future.
Yes, this witch has gone rogue, refusing to embrace rhetoric that consistently fails in practice. My chart is ruled by Mars. Mars in Scorpio wants us to have the courage to face the truth. Mars in Aries wants us to have the courage to pave new paths. I have found the truth and blazed a new trail in astrology. I refuse to settle for astrology that’s based on ineffective practices and misconceptions. Instead, I delve deep into the complexities of astrological concepts, seeking to understand them in a way that’s grounded in evidence while intuiting that which has been lost to the ravages of time. I draw on the wisdom of the ancients, but I also question and assess their ideas to weed out propaganda and misinterpretations.
My approach to astrology is rooted in the Sumerian zodiacal system, which I believe holds the key to cultivating life-force, achieving your highest purpose, and building free and just societies. I’m committed to making my signature method accessible to everyone, so that astrology can fulfill its original purpose: to empower humanity and free the world from suffering.
A Glimpse into My World
When I’m not working on astrology, I study and practice the Tao and all of the paths to it. I believe, astrology is another path to the Tao. I also enjoy, hanging out at my favorite bookshop, Albertine; having lunch with the Hatter in Central Park; or strolling one of the city’s many historic hidden gems with a tattered, coffee-stained, dog-eared copy of Kiki Strike tucked underneath my arm. Shout out to Kirsten Miller.

How we got here…
Greetings and salutations Superheroes,
I have been doing a deep dive into astrology for over 40 years. And yet, I didn’t give my first professional reading until I was 49 years old and 33 years into my quest. Why? It didn’t work! If following the modern rhetoric produced no results for me, why would I advise it for a paying client? Oh it seemed to apply some of the time, but far from all of the time, and that just isn’t good enough. And oh my, when it doesn’t work but your committed to making it work, the years it can take from you.
Despite the fact that it wasn’t working, I could not pull myself away from the study of it. I dug deeper, while I should have been doing the dishes, (learning a real skill that could propel my muggle career), cursing myself all the while for squandering my own precious time. I sought out the most obscure astrologers who were versed in the most obscure topics, continued to push farther back in time, scoured the inter-webs for out-of-print books and anything concerning the practices of the ancient Chaldean’s, Babylonian’s, and Sumerian’s. And then in pure Jupiter fashion, I questioned. I questioned all of it, jockeying for a view of every possible angle.
In 2017, I found the secret door at the back of the wardrobe. My birth chart became a magical wonderland. It contained an epic journey filled with magical people and legendary places. It became everything that modern astrology promises and so much more.
I finally had the tools I needed to guide others on their own heroic quest. I could confidently give an empowering reading. Since 2017, I have had the satisfaction of guiding people to remembering the actionable steps needed to materialize their dreams, and watching those same people thrive and shine while taking those steps.
