Hey, I’m Ale; astrologer, integrative health coach, immigrant and dog mom.

I moved from Brazil to France on my own when I was 18.

At the time, I obviously wasn’t thinking about astrology or wondering what my chart had to say about living abroad. I just knew I wanted to go.

But over the years, I started thinking more about what makes a place feel like home, why I felt so different in certain cities, and how much where we live can affect our relationships, work, routines and even the way we see ourselves.

Then, during my first Saturn return, I found astrocartography.

And I felt so seen!

It gave me a way to look back at places I had lived and understand things I had experienced there from a completely different angle. It also made me much more curious about my natal chart and about how astrology could be used without turning it into predictions or a list of things I “should” be.

That’s still how I work today.

I like astrology that helps us ask better questions.

Why does this keep happening?

Why does this part of my life feel so complicated?

Why did I feel so different after moving there?

What am I actually looking for in the next place?

And what do I already have in my chart that can help me deal with what I’m going through?

I’m a Virgo Sun, so yes, I also like things to be useful.

I want you to leave a reading understanding something you didn’t understand as clearly before, whether that’s a part of yourself, a transition you’re going through or the way a particular place may fit into your life.
