hi, my name is colly athey! i've been studying traditional astrology with a focus on Hellenistic & timelord techniques since December of 2020. i am currently a student in the Nightlight Astrology program, taught by Adam Elenbaas, about to finish the Year 2 course. i practice astrology as divination: meaning the birth chart is the life, full of free will & fate spiraling together, not just the individual's psychology. i ask that you come to the session with a specific question to guide us. something simple like “where should i focus the next 6 months” or “how can i improve X?” to orient us to a time & place such as now.

prior to us meeting, i look to your natal chart for archetypal symbols relevant to the question & pertinent cycles from transiting planets, solar returns, timelords, or annual profections, and/or progressed charts.

once we meet, we weave together a tale of time: a poetic interpretation of astronomy. i orient you within these cycles by asking questions on where you are, where you’re coming from, and where you may be headed, all relative to initial inquiry. my goal is that you leave with a greater intuition and trust of time, self, and cycles.
