Astrology is complex. We learn this language best in community with each other. I’ve spent years in collective astrology spaces as a facilitator and participant. I know how essential those spaces have been to my own growth and depth of understanding.
Learning in community makes astrology real, nuanced and relatable. This offering is grounded in the belief that webs of collective support are vital for our healing, learning, and getting free.

FAQ’s
What is the Saturn Return?
This is a deep exploration of one of the most significant astrological transits in the lifetime. We will explore various themes that characterize this transit that happens around the late 20’s/early 30’s, late 50’s/early 60’s and the late 80’s/early 90’s. The first Saturn Return tends to be the most dramatic, shifting most if not all of the major structural parts of your life. Work, home, relationship to parents & home. Saturn’s mission is to express and process themes of authority, commitment, accountability, and our family/cultural conditioning. If you are not going through your Saturn Return, you are still welcome to register although priority goes to folks what are in a Saturn activation.
What is a Saturn Cycle?
So the full Saturn cycle is about 28-30 years. There are 4 major points in the cycle that are very important, one of which is the Saturn Return. This class is relevant for anyone who is going thru any of these 4 major parts in the cycle. That is people with Saturn in Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio or Taurus. Please send me a message if you are interested and have questions about this.
What is your teaching style?
We will be doing cute community building
Sharing is encouraged and is a major part of learning!
I use interactive activities, creative writing, visualizations and short lectures as ways to learn and process. Learning happens thru our heart, intuition, mind, imagination, and spirit.
We are always working through harmful internalized messages about teaching and learning from school. We must become more aware of these so we can continue to learn and honor our minds and inherent intelligence.
My intention is to create a heart centered space. An opportunity to take off some masks, release some armor and confront the changes that are here or on their way with courage and compassion. You’ll be invited to show up with video on as much as possible.
How do I know if I’m in my first Saturn Return?

TESTIMONIES FROM SPRING CLASS
The Saturn Return container created by Giselle exceeded my expectations and supported me in ways I didn't realize were possible. The class not only expanded my understanding of astrology, but also offered me 1:1 support and also allowed me to create new friendships. The astro content offered by Giselle was accessible, but also different from typical "astrology 101" and gave me an appreciation for the depth of knowledge and complex understanding Giselle has with the stars. I am leaving this container with a deeper understanding of my life and the journey I am on.
I had such a great time taking Giselle's class. I loved the intention she brought to creating a space meeting folks where they're at so we could learn. Really digging into my Saturn's Return with a group of other learners on the highest potential of this time was so affirming and I definitely recommend anyone to take these classes. The class really encouraged me to become friends with Saturn.
Giselle did a beautiful job of facilitating a virtual class that still felt connected, present and grounded. Giselle also provided a variety of ways to engage with the material and themes of the class both during our time together and in-between classes. After our last class ended, I felt so grateful for the pocket of community created and the connections that came through both within myself and through the group. I definitely still have a lot to continue integrating and processing and a great starting point to delve deeper into a range of topics beyond just the Saturn return transit. The amount of information covered felt right both in breadth and depth, and felt accessible to beginners while still inspiring for avid astrology enthusiasts. I would definitely recommend a class by Giselle to folks at any level of astrological interest or study.
