STRATEGIC & INTUITIVE WORK FOR INDIVIDUALS, FOUNDERS, LEADERS & CREATIVES

Shamanic practice and astrology, strategy and delivery. One room, built around what you bring.Bring me what’s stuck, what’s stirring, or what won’t leave you alone.A founder brings a strategy. A novelist brings a character who won’t come alive. Someone at a crossroads brings their life, a pattern, or a relationship they want to understand. You might bring an impossible decision, an unlikely idea, a business that wants to become something else, or something you can sense but can’t yet name.I bring twenty years of delivery and strategy work, from banking and IT to national government and the NHS, and just as long with clients, charts, cards, dreams and spirit allies. I look at what you bring through ways of seeing that rarely meet: strategic and intuitive, rational and symbolic, practical and imaginal, sceptical and naive.Knots loosen. Doors open. Paths appear.

Equal parts rigour and trust

For more than twenty-five years, I've studied deeply across psychology, consciousness, astrology, shamanism, healing and other ways of knowing.In parallel, I have also worked across boardroom strategy, in front-line delivery, and with political heat — an independent, brought in where it mattered.Serious about the work, serious about not taking myself too seriously.Over time, these different strands have become part of a practice of my own, shaped through more than twenty years of shared experiences with clients and all the stories, feelings, hopes, dreams, anger, tears, joys and celebrations that brings.I value theory, technique, critical thought and discernment — the discipline of knowing what I know, questioning what I think I know, and remaining curious about what I don't.And I am equally devoted to what cannot always be known that way: intuition, felt sense, symbol, synchronicity, surrender, imagination, magic and the unseen.For me, the interesting territory is what becomes possible when we allow both.

It's your path and it's our partnership

Working together isn’t about heavy analysis—it’s a dynamic partnership.It’s sitting with the frustration or the doubt until it passes, giving the metaphors space to unfold, laughing as something loosens its grip, and looking back in wonder at what happens along the way.Your path doesn't have to be walked alone.

Ways into the work

working together

Bring what you have: a business you're building. A book, a project, a piece of art you're making. A life you're living.

Whatever you bring, I delight in what is particular to you. The talent you dismiss because it comes too easily. The fascination that keeps tugging at your sleeve. The idea that is still mostly smoke.

YOUR BUSINESS

Heaven has an extraordinary habit of turning up on time.

I've worked where decisions are made, and where they have to hold. I know the ground between the two, and how to cross it.So I read your chart and your business plan together.Choose the date to launch, sign or go live. Read the chart of your company or brand. Put co-founders' charts together: who drives, who brakes, where you'll clash, where you'll carry each other. Cast a horary on the deal: will it close, and where do you stand? Find the city where your work lands through astrocartography.Bring the strategy that’s stuck. What do the performance metrics say, and what is the metaphor I’m getting from spirit?

YOUR CREATIVE WORK

To have a hand in what is becoming.

The novel stalled at chapter nine. The album with no name. The character who won't come alive. The plot that won't behave. The idea still looking for its shape.Cast a horary on the plot problem. Draw up a natal chart for your protagonist. Incubate a dream around the work. Find the myth moving underneath it. Or bring together things that really ought not to belong together, and see what they make.What is the secret architecture of your creativity — and what makes it come alive?Let different worlds collide, and see what becomes possible because they did.

YOUR LIFE

Sometimes you need to see it differently. Sometimes you need to meet it as it is. Sometimes something needs to move.

The move, the job, the relationship, the decision you can't think your way through. Your natal chart, what's coming and when, and the questions that need an oracle.And there is shamanic healing.What was lost comes home. What doesn't belong is taken out. What you carried for your ancestors is laid to rest. Your power returns to you.Some things are worth meeting in the dark. And we anchor that medicine in the light.

solar summit: your permanent Solstice

Some questions ask for a world of their own. Here is one I've built - enter with me.

The Alchemy of Your Calling

Every calling has its own terrain. Its heights. Its roots. Its weather. Its hidden sources of nourishment.Solar Summit is a body of work I created around the Midheaven—the highest point in the birth chart—and the larger landscape that surrounds it.Together, we explore not only the nature of your calling, but what grounds it, what feeds it, what tests it, what renews it, and what helps it take form in the world.Through astrology, myth, imagination and experiential practice, we don't just interpret the chart. We enter it.You don't chase your purpose. You learn to speak with it.

How I work

Many flowers. One honey. Yours.
The magic is in the mix.

Astrology. Natal charts and synastry, transits, progressions, solar arcs and solar returns, astrocartography and cyclocartography — with traditional techniques, including horary and electional, woven in.Oracles. Tarot, runes, black mirror scrying, and the practice of Becoming the Mouthpiece of the Gods, where deities and spirit speak through me.Shamanic journeying. I journey into the unseen on your behalf, for information or a fresh perspective on your question. Or, if you'd like to learn, I can teach you to journey for yourself.Shamanic healing. No two healings are the same. Spirit prescribes what's needed, and I draw on soul retrieval, extraction, ancestral healing, curse unravelling, depossession, psychopomp and power-animal retrieval, alongside other methods gathered from teachers - both seen and unseen - and years of study. You leave with practices to carry the work into your daily life.Dreams, myth and the imaginal. We mirror your dreams, incubate new ones around a question, or dream together, then follow symbol, myth and image wherever they lead.Strategy and delivery. Build the plan. Find the measures. Follow what’s working, figure out what isn’t. Unpick the process, the politics, the motivation. Make the decision. Make it hold.Ceremony and magic. Ritual to mark a threshold, begin something well, honour a transition, or close what's finished.These are maps, not marching orders. An oracle is another voice in the conversation: another thread to pick up, test, follow, or leave exactly where you found it.Reality can become a little more liquid here.

You don't need to know which door you need. You only need a reason to knock.

Ways of Working

Before we meet, I spend time with your chart and whatever you’ve brought — often hours, not minutes. Most sessions run 90 minutes.Online, or in person by arrangement.Once I know you and your work, we can work in ways that suit you best — whether that's in a session or outside one. You can bring me a question, situation or challenge, and I can undertake the work independently, then share what's relevant in a way that works for you — including through voice recordings you can listen to in your own time.

Come as you are; leave with breath in your bones and a new thread to follow.

fees

Before we meet, I prepare. Often for hours.

I study charts, follow threads, sit with what you have brought and enter the world of the work long before we meet.The time we spend together is only the visible part.I keep my client numbers small. It’s the only way to give each one this kind of attention.

This work asks something of both of us: intention, attention, and a willingness to stay with what we find.The stance we take towards the work changes the encounter itself.Money is one way of honouring the exchange, but it isn't the only measure of what we bring.

Founders & businesses

I’ve done this from the inside: advising directors, leading winning bids, and running the programmes that took new services live under pressure.Each package is priced for one business. Bring me more — a portfolio, a group of companies, a wider founding team — and we'll shape the work, and the fee, around what you bring.

Founder + Business
Six 90-minute sessions over 8–10 weeks · From £5,800Every business has a moment of birth. That moment carries its signature.I read the chart of your business alongside your own. Where are you aligned? Where are you asking the business to behave like you? What does it do better than you realise?We explore how the business makes money, the clients it attracts, its natural strengths, its positioning and brand, where it meets resistance—and where opportunity may lie.Then we look ahead: what is coming, what deserves your attention, and how you might meet it. We can identify important windows for growth or change, choose the moment for a launch or decision, and use place to explore where in the world the business might thrive.And there is shamanic work: not just looking at the relationship between you and your business, but working on its behalf, because a business is alive and has a spirit too — seeking to keep you in harmony, clearing what may stand in the way, and sourcing help from unexpected quarters.

There is the business you planned. And the one that's alive.

Founders & Partners
Eight 90-minute sessions over 10–12 weeks · From £7,800You. Them. What happens between you. And the business you are building together.We look at each founder, the relationships between you, and the business itself.Who drives? Who brakes? Who sees possibility and who sees risk? Where do you complement one another? Where do you collide? What happens under pressure? What is each of you naturally equipped to hold—and what is falling between you?Natal charts and synastry can make dynamics visible that are difficult to name from inside the relationship. Then we put that alongside roles, leadership, strategy and what the business itself needs.And shamanic work takes us somewhere else. What does each person bring that no one else can? Where is the sweet spot between what comes naturally to you and what the business asks of you? What might help the partnership find its flow?

Because the question isn’t only whether you work well together. It is whether the way you work together serves what you are trying to build.

Continuing business work

Once I know you and the business, we can work with questions as they arise: horary for a live question, electional astrology for an important beginning, astrocartography around place, or deeper work around brand, customers, leadership, money, team or direction.There may also be times when I suggest we bring in something from the shamanic side of my practice.

creative work

Creative horary
One 90-minute session · £300A plot that has reached an impasse. A character whose fate you cannot resolve. A choice between two directions. A project that has stalled, or a question about what happens next.Send me the situation and one clear question. I cast and study the horary chart before we meet. Then we explore what it reveals together.Horary can be remarkably specific: it can show the forces at work, what helps or hinders, how the situation may develop, and where the answer to the question appears to lie.And a chart is never short of stories. Shamanic journeying can take us further into its images and archetypes, opening unexpected angles on the question — and sometimes revealing something we hadn't thought to ask.

When the work won’t answer you, ask the chart.

Creative immersion
Four 90-minute sessions · From £2,000Bring me what you are creating.Let’s find out what else it knows.A novel. A film. An album. A performance. A body of work. A project still trying to find its form.We can explore where your creativity is strongest, what gives the project life, what has become blocked, the world and characters you are creating, the choices you cannot resolve, its timing, who it might be trying to reach, what could make it resonate long after its release—and what might be trying to emerge that you haven’t seen yet.Astrology gives us one way in. Horary another. Dreams, myth and oracles can open other doors. And because in shamanic practice everything is alive, I can also journey on behalf of the project and bring back what I encounter: perhaps an image, a landscape, a figure, a metaphor.Not an instruction.Something to take back into the creative process and see what it does there.Between our sessions, the project stays with me.

Bring me the knot. We’ll pull on the threads.

Personal work

One session
90 minutes · £300A crossroads. A repeating pattern. A relationship. Something ending. Something beginning. A question you cannot quite get underneath. A possibility you want to explore.Bring what is alive.We may work with astrology, an oracle, myth, image, shamanic practice—or simply follow the conversation somewhere neither of us expected it to go.

Sometimes one encounter is enough to change the view.

An immediate session
60 minutes · £380Sometimes you cannot wait.Something has happened. A situation has shifted. A decision suddenly has a deadline.Where I have capacity, I will make time within 24–48 hours, including the preparation I need before we meet.

One hour. One immediate situation. My full attention.

Your Birth Chart
Bespoke written reading · £450An extensively researched, substantial reading in which I study your chart as a complete system—identifying the patterns and configurations that matter, tracing how they interact and contradict one another, and building them into a coherent portrait, before showing you the astrological working behind my interpretation.

Hours of study. One chart. What matters most.

Birth chart + conversation
Bespoke report + 90-minute session · £625I prepare your birth-chart report in draft before we meet, but I don’t send it to you yet.First, we talk.I bring what I have seen in the chart; you bring the life actually lived. Afterwards, I return to the report and complete it in the light of our conversation.

The report is one way of meeting your chart. Meeting you opens another.

SHAMANIC HEALING

Healing & integration
Three 90-minute sessions over about a month · £1,500This is for when healing deserves its own space, not a corner of a session.Before anything else, I journey to ask whether this work is mine to bring. Then we meet. You tell me what’s happening; I tell you what to expect, and how to prepare.On the day of the healing, the work begins long before we start. By then, the space has been prepared, spirit called in, and the ground made ready.The healing follows. Spirit prescribes what’s needed: soul retrieval, extraction, ancestral work, or whatever else emerges.And then the work carries on. In the weeks that follow, I do what spirit asks of me on your behalf: journeying, ceremony, practice, or simply keeping you with me as the healing settles. This isn’t work I do and put down. I stay with it for as long as spirit asks.Because I hold each healing this closely, there’s a limit to how many I take on at any one time. If there isn’t space now, I’ll tell you when there will be.Two to three weeks later, we meet again to see what has shifted or surfaced, and I share practices to carry the work into everyday life.From there, the healing passes back into your hands.

The healing matters. So does what you do with it afterwards.

Continuing Personal work

Six sessions
Six 90-minute sessions over up to six months · £1,800Sometimes the first question is only the doorway.Six sessions give us room to follow what emerges.We can return to patterns rather than simply recognise them. Follow astrological timing as something unfolds. Ask new questions as the old ones change. Work with dreams, images and oracles. Make room for shamanic healing—and for the integration that follows it.Something we see in one session can be lived with before we meet again.A block means your sessions are booked and yours. Between them, you stay with me: I follow the threads, revisit the chart, and undertake shamanic journeys on what surfaces before bringing it back to you.

There is time to go further in. And time to come back.

Mentorship
Ten 90-minute sessions over approximately six months · £3,000Some passages of a life deserve company.Over six months, I come to know your landscape: what is changing, what keeps returning, what you thought the question was and what it is becoming.The astrology moves. Life happens. Something apparently resolved returns differently. A dream illuminates something we spoke about months ago. Healing opens another layer. A possibility that once seemed remote begins to take form.Your ten sessions are booked and yours. In the weeks between them, you stay with me: I watch how the chart is moving, notice what returns, and journey on what surfaces before bringing it back to you.

This is not ten separate sessions. It is having me alongside you for a chapter of your life.

A month of intensive work
Up to twelve 90-minute sessions within four weeks · £4,850Sometimes six months is too slow.You may be crossing a major threshold, moving through an unusually intense period, or living through a month in which one event changes the meaning of the next.For four weeks, I make an unusual degree of my attention available to you, which is why I only hold one intensive at a time.We meet up to twelve times. Between meetings, I stay close to what is unfolding—following the astrology, thinking, researching, journeying or consulting an oracle where useful.

For one month, I am paying very close attention.

A World I have created

Solar Summit: Your Permanent Solstice
Six private sessions · £2,500
Held one-to-one. Or bring your own companions for the climb, and we'll build a private group around you.You don’t chase your purpose. You learn to speak with it.Solar Summit begins with a different idea of calling.Your birth chart becomes a living landscape. There is a summit—the place of your becoming—but also the ground beneath it, what feeds the climb, what tests it, what asks to be risked or relinquished, and what helps a calling take form in the world.We work with astrology, myth, imagination and direct experience—not to arrive at one fixed answer about what you are “meant” to do, but to enter into a living relationship with what calls you.

The summit matters. So does the ground you stand on to reach it.

THE NATURE OF THIS WORK

My work draws on strategic, astrological, shamanic and intuitive approaches, individually or in combination, across personal, creative and professional matters.Shamanic work begins in the dark. Before undertaking any work on your behalf, I journey with my spirit allies to establish whether the medicine is mine to bring and whether the timing is right. Only then can I confirm whether I can take the work forward.No particular outcome is guaranteed. The work does not replace medical, psychological, legal or regulated financial advice.Clients remain responsible for their own decisions and actions, including any commercial or financial consequences.For further details, please see my Terms of Service.

Solar Summit: Your Permanent Solstice

The Alchemy of Your Calling

Every summit begins somewhere below the horizon.

Solar Summit is a body of work I created around the Midheaven—the highest point in the birth chart, traditionally associated with our public life, direction and what we become known for.But a calling is more than its highest point. It has roots and resources, companions and obstacles, appetites and desires. It needs somewhere to belong, something to feed it, and ways to renew itself when the old form can take it no further.Solar Summit explores that larger landscape through astrology, myth, imagination and direct experience—not to tell you what your purpose is, but to bring you into a deeper relationship with it.You don't chase your purpose. You learn to speak with it.

What we'll do

Through astrology, myth, imagination and experiential practice, we enter the chart.
Your Midheaven becomes a mountain.It has a Guardian. Companions appear on the climb. There is a village at its foot and a hidden chamber beneath it. Somewhere on the mountain is what feeds your calling. Somewhere else, what keeps it alive.We play. We take risks. We look into mirrors. We discover what other people can see from where they are standing that you cannot see from where you are.

And eventually, we reach the question at the heart of Solar Summit: What does your calling need in order to become real?

• tell me you're interested

Who it's for

For anyone who has ever asked: What am I here to do?Perhaps you know there is something you are here to make, build, contribute or become.Perhaps you have no idea what it is. Perhaps you thought you knew, and the answer is changing.Solar Summit is for founders, creators, artists, leaders, and anyone curious about the shape their purpose might take.You don't need to believe in astrology; you only need the nerve to meet yourself in a new language.

a note on readiness

Solar Summit asks you to enter an image before deciding what it means.To stay curious when something unexpected appears. To let yourself be seen. To become a mirror for somebody else, and allow them to be one for you.You don't need to be good at guided imagery. There is no right thing to see. You don't need the right words, or to turn everything that appears into meaning.You do need curiosity, some imagination, and a willingness to stay with what emerges.

THIS MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT MOMENT IF

You're looking for quick tools, fixed answers, or someone to tell you what your purpose is.You're not curious about what might happen when you enter an image before you know what it means.

Held one-to-one. Or bring your own companions for the climb, and we'll build a private group around you.

About me

My life and work have moved between worlds that are usually kept apart.The corporate and the sacred. Strategy and intuition. Psychology and symbol. The structures we live inside and the things we cannot always explain.I cut my teeth in banking and IT, where a plan was only as good as its numbers and its deadlines. I’ve built and tracked budgets running into the millions, where every line had to answer for itself.I’ve sat one-to-one with some of the most influential people in the NHS and asked them what went wrong, and what they’d do differently. I’ve worked with senior leaders from government, clinical and executive worlds on targets the whole country was watching. I’ve walked into pressure points with CEOs and directors across organisations, and helped them find a way through.I’ve built a new way of holding directors to account, then sat with each of them before they faced their chief executive as a critical friend, turning their priorities into measures and milestones and asking the hard questions first. Some of the people I worked for brought me back when they moved on.I’ve written the board paper. Won the bid. Run the go-live. Managed emergency care in a major London hospital. Bet a finance director I could plan urgent care, and won.And I’ve worked for myself: first contracting through my own company, then building a practice from scratch, where there was no board, no playbook, and the risk was mine.Time, budget, quality, risk, people. I know where a plan breaks, and how to make it hold.What I’ve seen inside organisations stays there. Whatever you bring will too.Alongside that, I have spent more than twenty-five years seriously studying and practising astrology, healing, shamanic practice, consciousness and other ways of knowing, including more than twenty years working with clients.The practical matters to me. So does the mysterious.My own path has crossed continents and countries, careers, relationships, loss and initiations.It taught me to listen: to silence, to the unseen, and to the self beneath the noise.I’m not here to pronounce who you are or tell you what your life means. I work as a mirror, guide and co-conspirator — bringing what I know, noticing what I notice, and meeting you in the enquiry.

Training and credentials

I have learned from many teachers over the years, and their teaching continues to inform my work. Some are named here, others are not, and my gratitude extends to them all.Shamanic PracticeMy shamanic training formally began in 2012 and continues with my spirit teachers. Along the way:

During my Professional Shamanic Practitioner training, I was asked to complete fifty case studies. It became all I wanted to do. By the end, I had completed more than two hundred.Later, I made shamanic practice the subject of my MSc research, exploring Western practitioners’ lived experience of shamanic power.AstrologyI completed my diploma with distinction at the Mayo School of Astrology and am a Fellow of the Association of Professional Astrologers International (FAPAI). Since qualifying, I have continued to deepen and broaden my practice through independent study of other astrological techniques and traditions.Wider Training and PracticeMy wider learning spans healing, psychological, esoteric and symbolic traditions, including:

Academic StudyI hold an MSc in Consciousness, Spirituality and Transpersonal Psychology, completed through the Alef Trust in partnership with Liverpool John Moores University. I also hold an Honours Degree in Psychology from the University of South Africa and a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg.

Strategy and DeliveryMost of what I know here, I learned by doing.In banking and IT, I worked beside the consultants who trained everyone else. In government and the NHS, I learned from some of the most able leaders in the country, alongside the big consulting firms and a whole host of national best practice. Formally, I trained in PRINCE2, MSP, leadership & management, and executive-level coaching.And the people. Surgeons and dentists. Chief executives and call-centre teams. Ministers and ambulance crews. Later, artists, writers and fashion insiders. Entrepreneurs. Every world thinks differently. I learned to think in them all.

Reflections & Feedback

Testimonials

I have always been interested in what happens when we meet something before being told what to think about it.There is something valuable in arriving with your own curiosity intact — noticing what draws you, what doesn't, and what your own sense of things has to say.So I don't place testimonials throughout these pages. But if you're curious about how others have experienced working with me, you can read their reflections here.Their words are shared with permission, never required, and presented as they were offered, with occasional notes in square brackets for context.Each reflects their own experience, and is not a promise of what yours will be.

• read the reviews

Ongoing Feedback & Living Research

I hold this work as a living practice. I am interested not only in what happens within a session, but in what stays with you afterwards: what shifted, what proved useful, what continued unfolding — and what didn't.I invite reflection and feedback during, between and after our work together. Sometimes that becomes part of the work itself; sometimes it helps me understand more clearly what I am doing and how it might be refined.Over time, I am interested in the patterns that emerge across many people's experiences — not to reduce the work to outcomes, but to learn from what it actually does in people's lives.Anything you share is treated with care. If I ever draw on broader patterns or insights publicly, they will be distilled and anonymised so that your experience remains your own.

I only link to places I trust, but I can’t take responsibility for what happens on other sites.

Terms of service

why this matters

These terms apply to work provided by Ruby Fox Ltd through Yvette Marks.This isn’t just a legal page — it’s a shared agreement about how we meet in this work. It exists to protect the work we do together: room to go deep, and clarity about how it runs. These words are offered not to control, but to care — for the process, for each other, and for the unseen forces we honour in this work.

Booking & Payment

Sessions, programmes and other work are arranged through direct email conversation. When we agree a time or programme of work, your space is confirmed once full payment is received.For shamanic work, I journey first to check the work is mine to bring, and only then ask for payment.Payment can be made directly to my business bank account using the details I provide, or via a secure Stripe payment link.
All prices are clearly shared on the website.Where a price begins “from”, the final fee depends on the number of people and the scope of the work, and is agreed with you before we begin. Session times are confirmed in writing, with the time zone stated.For bespoke packages or longer-term work, pricing is agreed in advance through email conversation, in accordance with the nature and rhythm of the work we’ve discussed.

Fees & Refunds

You pay for the session and the work itself, not for a particular result, and payment doesn’t depend on how you feel about what emerges. Spirit works in its own way and its own time, and what comes, including what changes, is part of the work. Once a session or piece of work has been delivered, it is non-refundable.If you book as an individual rather than a business, you have 14 days to change your mind. If you ask me to begin within those 14 days, you pay for any work already done, including preparation. Once the work is complete, the right to cancel ends.

cancellations & scheduling

Time is sacred. When we make an agreement to meet, a space is created and prepared for you.If you need to change a one-to-one session, please do so with at least 48 hours’ notice. Short-notice cancellations (less than 48 hours) are fully chargeable, as the time has been set aside for you. Immediate sessions fall within this window, so they are non-refundable once confirmed.The time is held for you, and it’s yours whether or not you use all of it. If you arrive late, we still close at the time we agreed.For multi-session work, up to two reschedules are welcome with at least 48 hours’ notice, so the work keeps its momentum.For intensive work held within a fixed period, sessions need to take place within the agreed timeframe. Because that time is reserved for you in advance, sessions cannot normally be carried forward beyond it. If something exceptional happens, we can discuss what is possible.Work stretched too thin loses its thread, so multi-session work is completed within six months of beginning, unless we agree otherwise. Sessions not used by then lapse.Subject to your 14-day right to cancel as an individual, bookings for programmes, private groups and other fixed-date work are non-refundable once confirmed.In the unlikely event that I need to cancel — due to illness, emergency, or technical interruption — I will of course make every effort to reschedule your session in good time, at a time that works for you. If we’re unable to reschedule, I’ll refund any payment you’ve made for the cancelled session.

relational integrity & group space

This work rests on shared care. The space we enter together is built on mutual respect, honesty, and an understanding of the sacred.I may bring our work to a close if the container is no longer supportive — whether due to persistent misalignment in the work, harmful behaviour, or a breakdown in trust. This is not about judgement, but about maintaining the safety and clarity needed for the work to unfold. If I bring our work to a close because of harmful behaviour or a serious breach of our working agreement, you will not automatically be entitled to a refund. Any refund will depend on the circumstances, including any loss caused by the breach, and your legal rights.In group settings, your experience is always yours to share. For the wellbeing of all participants, the stories, words, and inner processes of others are to be held in confidence and not spoken of beyond the space.For private groups, the fee is agreed for the group as a whole and stays the same if someone can’t attend.

confidentiality

What you bring stays between us. That includes your personal life, your business (its strategy, finances, deals and the people in it), and whatever comes through in readings or journeys on your behalf.I share it with no one without your permission, except in confidential professional supervision, where I remove identifying details; where the law requires it; or where I believe someone is at serious risk of harm.If you share someone else’s details with me, such as a partner’s or co-founder’s birth data, I hold them with the same care and use them only for our work.If your business needs a signed confidentiality agreement, I’m happy to sign one.

communication between sessions

Contact outside sessions — such as to arrange a time, ask a practical question, or check in — is welcomed with warmth and presence.That said, to honour the rhythm of this work and the boundaries of the container, communication between sessions is kept spacious and purposeful. Email is the preferred channel, and I ask that we keep back-and-forth exchanges concise and clear so that our energy remains focused for when we meet.Each point of contact is meaningful, and the space between sessions is part of the journey.

The Nature of the Work

My work may draw on astrology, shamanic practice and healing, myth, imagination, oracles, strategy and other approaches described on this website.
These are different ways of exploring what you bring to the work. They may offer insight, perspective, possibilities or questions we had not thought to ask. They do not guarantee a particular answer or outcome.You remain the authority on your own life and responsible for the choices and decisions you make.

an additional note on integration

It is possible that this work may stir what’s long-held or hidden — and sometimes, what emerges can feel tender, disorienting, or energetically intense. While every person’s experience is different, it can be helpful to allow spaciousness around our sessions.Buffering your schedule with quiet time, journaling, or gentle activity can offer your system the space it needs to land and integrate — before re-entering the full pace of daily life.This is not about bracing for difficulty, but honouring that meaningful inner work unfolds on its own timeline.

Limitations & Scope

This work does not offer clinical advice or medical diagnosis. It is not a replacement for therapy, mental health support, medical or veterinary care. If you or your animal are currently receiving professional support for physical or mental health concerns, please continue to do so alongside any work we do together.This space is offered in complement, not in contradiction — honouring the role of all forms of healing.Nothing in this work constitutes legal, financial, investment or other regulated professional advice.Clients must be 18 or over. Work for a child or an animal is arranged by their parent, guardian or owner, who agrees to these terms on their behalf. You remain responsible for your own decisions and their consequences, including any business or financial loss, and I am not liable for them, except where the law doesn’t allow this.

third parties

From time to time, I include links to other websites — ones I genuinely think are worth checking out.That said, I don’t run those sites, so I’m not responsible for what they say, do, or how they work. If you follow a link from here, it’s a good idea to take a moment to read their terms and policies, just to be sure.

Website & Communication

The website is a space for information and connection. You are welcome to subscribe to email updates if you wish to stay in touch.Unless otherwise credited, the original writing and other material on this website is the creative work of Yvette Marks and may not be copied or reproduced without permission. Images and other third-party material remain subject to their own copyright and licensing terms.

Legal Holding

These terms are held under the laws of England and Wales. Should any disagreement arise, we agree to seek resolution first through honest conversation and mutual respect.

Updates to these terms

These terms may be updated from time to time. The version on this page when you book is the one that applies to our work.

Purple Seership: A Vision that Re-Shapes Reality

The long arc of Pluto in Aquarius is power to the people

In citadels of paper and certainty, borrowed thoughts are braided into new canons, each citation a fragile ghost conjuring a weight of tradition where none was ever given.Yet beneath this lattice of footnotes and man-made dogma — the agreed-upon rules and second-hand truths that pass for fact — lies a thinner realm: a veil-like fabric at the Jungian divide, where psyche breathes life into matter.

Here, words soften, melt, and life hums at the edge of what we can name.This terrain is well known to certain souls — sometimes called shamans — a word itself borrowed and traded across tongues, wearing no single meaning, no fixed custom, no final shape.Its very ambiguity is a gift: a tear in the citadel’s paper wall through which both speaker and seeker slip beyond the illusion, gather counsel from hidden allies, and return carrying seeds to rewild that which has grown stale.

One strand winds from the centre of this web into the heart of the paper’s source — the trees of the forest — where honeybees hum stories of origin and possibility.To the Orphics, the bee is the human soul, so its story is our story, its origin our origin, its possibility our possibility: ancestors who once devoured their hosts alive but, over time, turned hunger into honey, loneliness into a hive— proof that morality can emerge within nature itself.They honour this morality in a gentle covenant with flowers: a mutual promise to feed and be fed, to take nothing that is not returned in sweetness.

Like shamans, honeybees accompany each birth and passing, moving between worlds as keepers of the soul’s crossing.In this way, they dance at the thresholds — guiding souls and tending the unseen, the oldest shamans in fur and flight.

But they are seers too: their way of seeing is a wonder of its own.For us, purple does not appear in the rainbow’s arc — it is a bridge our eyes conjure by uniting the short waves of violet with the long waves of red.Bees, too, carry this gift: their eyes blend ultraviolet with visible green to create bee purple — a shimmer we cannot see but which flowers have learned to wear.

This is no fable but nature’s truth: blossoms coloured themselves to the bees’ favourite vision, shaping petal and pigment to beckon these visitors whose visit keeps the world alive.Within this miracle lives a deeper alchemy: what is seen shapes what is.A way of seeing draws forth a colour; a hidden hope shapes a day.

Uranus, ruler of Pluto’s Aquarian path, slips into Gemini — quicksilver tongue, trickster story-weaver, a little explosion scattering betwixts and betweens of possibility between the solid facts.In place of one fixed truth, you are invited to remember your purple seership — the living way of seeing that bridges edges and colours the world each time you look.Colour your prose purple, awaken your purple seership, and find your hum.

Lineage & Sources

Below are the threads — academic and otherwise — that helped shape the weave of this offering.

While many written sources shaped this piece, my deepest sources remain the oral teachings I’ve received through my training with the Sacred Trust, and the ongoing guidance of my allies in Spirit.

Stories from the Deep

Your story, written in myth.
And Pluto in Aquarius is turning the page.

At the centre of the earth is the place where the ancestors lie. This is Pluto’s realm: the underworld — a place of presence from which fumes rose up and out through fissures in the rock and filled the cave at Delphi. Delphi was the navel of the earth, marked by a sacred stone, the omphalos, and believed to be the axis where this world and the otherworld met.

The Pythia, seated at its centre, did not speak for herself, but for Apollo — solar deity of light, harmony, and prophecy, who brought pattern to the deep. He helped make the unconscious conscious — and it was the Pythia who gave it voice. Messages were spoken that shaped city-states, leaders, and centuries. Her utterances seeded stories that still move through us today.

The myth of Orpheus and Eurydice also belongs to this underworld geography — the story of a couple in love.
A snake in the grass, a single bite. Eurydice fell, and the world changed.
She descended to the underworld — and Orpheus followed.

He did not bring weapons. His grief became sound, and his song moved stone. Even Hades and Persephone were stirred. They offered him a deal: Eurydice could return with him to the life above ground, but only if he went ahead and did not look back.

Most versions of Eurydice's story end here, naming Orpheus’s backward glance as failure — a moment of weakness, doubt, or disobedience that cost him his Eurydice.

Pluto as an archetype twists and turns throughout this tale:

Pluto is not only the ruler of death and rebirth.
He is the keeper of what we exile: the envy, the grief, the rage, the hunger to possess.
Those things we call evil — inflicted upon us, inflicted by us.
Not sins — but raw psychic matter, waiting to be worked.

This is the shaman’s path.
To descend into what others fear.
To make contact with the festering places.
To hold what poisons — until it reveals its medicine.

Healing begins here. Not in separation from the pain of others, but in resonance with it.
The wound is not removed — it is repurposed.
And what is transmuted in one becomes possibility for all.

Pluto does not purify by avoidance.
He transforms by contact.
He spiritualises the instinct.
He pulls gold from the grave.

And Eurydice.
She was not simply lost — she was taken, and then transformed.
She is not only the one who dies; she is death itself, the threshold, the reckoning.
She is the return — not as the one but as the swarm.
Her name — profound judgement — is not incidental.
She is not a victim in a story.
She is Pluto in feminine form — she embodies the hard truths we often turn away from. She is what must be faced.

Because Eurydice is in everything.
In the shadow you avoid.
In the ache you carry.
In the silences you inherit.
She is what is exiled, and what calls you back.
Orpheus descends, and Eurydice returns —
no longer the one, but the all.

The success of the myth lay not in retrieving the one — the Eurydice Orpheus sought — but in re-membering the hive. In Orpheus being followed out, not by the one, but by the many. By the swarm.

We are in this story too.
To the Orphics, a bee represented a human soul.

As Pluto moves through Aquarius — sign of the individual and sign of the collective, of the one and of the swarm — what will your story become?

Notes

When I began developing some of these ideas while undertaking my MSc, I paused and asked myself — had I gone too far, linking Pluto with Eurydice? Then I checked my solar return chart: the asteroid Eurydice was exactly conjunct Pluto.

The solar chime rang again when the impulse to share this story more widely arose — this time under a Leo New Moon. As I opened the chart of the moment, there she was: Eurydice, sitting right on top of the Sun and the Moon. I followed the thread — and kept listening, in all the ways I know how.

May it honour all who inspired it — those in spirit, in story, and in the everyday world.

Mercury: a mind that moves in many directions

Mercury Retrograde has a bad reputation.Delays. Glitches. Miscommunications. The message that disappears, the computer that crashes, the journey that somehow takes twice as long.But what if we thanked Mercury instead?What if the interruption isn’t simply something going wrong, but an invitation to look again?Mercury Retrograde reminds us that the cosmos isn’t linear. It asks us to re-member — to turn something we thought we understood and discover that it has another face.Tim Berners-Lee, the creator of the World Wide Web, was born with Mercury Retrograde in Gemini — Mercury in its own sign, thinking backward and forward at once.Without that upside-down brilliance, we wouldn’t even have the digital web that connects us right now.

How this view formed

This began long before the signs appeared in the outer world.
During a shamanic journey in the midst of a Mercury Retrograde, Mercury came to me — quicksilver in friendship — and said to listen past what I thought I knew: even in retrograde he would help.I didn’t yet understand what that meant. But in the moons that followed, his promise began to take form.During a stretch of classic Mercury Retrograde “mishaps” — car troubles, computer breakdowns — I began to notice a subtler pattern: synchronistic signals that seemed to precede or echo each event.I passed someone teaching two boys how to change a tyre. It was such a Mercurial scene: youths, learning, movement, hands-on mechanics, all ruled by the planet of agility and translation. I scoffed, thinking how people would attribute it to Mercury Retrograde. And then, days later, I had a flat tyre of my own — no tools, no know-how, and the realisation that I’d been shown the lesson and had missed it.During another retrograde, a friend’s computer kept crashing when he tried to read a message I’d sent; he told me after that each restart brought him closer to the truth of what I was really saying — and saved a friendship that might otherwise have splintered.That’s when I began to see that Mercury wasn’t bringing disorder at all — he was speaking. Those so-called glitches were synchronistic signals, invitations to step into conversation with a universe that was already trying to help me — if only I would listen.I wrote about this in Tales of an Aspiring Shaman (2017).At the time, everything I read treated Mercury Retrograde as a problem to endure.For me, it became a portal — from frustration to inquiry, from explanation to conversation with the living world.Since then, his language has never stopped — in glitches and grace notes, in crossed wires and sudden clarity — in the messages inside missteps, all shining with the same Mercurial logic.

Sun in Scorpio

The Nightly Journey of the Sun:
Nut, Ra, and the Scorpio Process

Each night, the sky goddess Nut — Queen of the Heavens — swallows the Sun.And each morning, she gives birth to him anew.Once upon a time, the Sun God Ra forbade Nut to bear children on any day of the year.But the god of wisdom, Thoth, gambled with Khonsu, the Moon, and won five days’ worth of Khonsu’s light.On those sacred days, Nut brought forth her divine children:
Osiris, Isis, Set, Nephthys, and Horus.Through them, the eternal rhythm of existence was expressed —
creation,
death,
destruction,
magic,
renewal.As the Sun travels each night through the body of Nut,
so too do we move through these same powers —
the Scorpio process itself

As the Sun moves through Scorpio, remember:
Every dawn is born of your transformation.

Reviews

If I was speaking to a friend or a business owner, I would say one thing: millionaires have CEOs, billionaires have astrologers.Yvette has been my astrologer, and I have seen significant growth across my businesses.She has been there to give me accurate predictions and to listen through tough days and breakdowns at work, giving me the guidance to centre myself so I can push through tough times, push through even lack of funds, and then sit in the gratefulness when I make an achievement and sit in the gratefulness of success.Through it all, she's also been someone who looks out for me, reminding me that my health and wellbeing matter just as much as everything I'm trying to achieve.The way she listens, her insights and the shamanic healings have given me a genuine strategic edge and played a huge part in the financial trajectory of my businesses.I am deeply grateful to Yvette and the guidance she brings into my life and my career.

— Founder of Multiple Businesses

I’ve worked with Yvette over a number of years through astrology readings, shamanic healing, and learning to journey for myself.This work has been life-changing.Each step has helped me listen to my heart rather than my head and trust my own intuition more deeply.It helped me develop a relationship I might have walked away from into a loving, supportive marriage, and to let go of guilt and shame so I could reconnect with someone else who is incredibly important in my life.What I value most is that Yvette never tells me what to do — she holds a space where I can listen to my own wisdom and my own guides.

— Client Testimonial

As CEO of a luxury lifestyle brand, I was going through a lot of power struggles with the financier and members of the senior leadership.I knew the remit of my job, yet I found myself in a space of not feeling acknowledged—my opinions and decisions were overlooked or bulldozed, and my autonomy wasn't respected.It was a long struggle, and Yvette truly helped me through our sessions, first acknowledging that I was being gaslit within my role, and then empowering me to reclaim my headspace and my position of power within the company.Even in terms of guidance and predictions on work opportunities, expansions, and which deals to take or avoid, her insights have been extremely accurate and precise.Of course we looked at the pros and cons and the data, but her guidance and spark of belief enhanced my work tremendously.Thanks to her predictions and support over time, I am now expanding into major retailers across the country.

— CEO, Luxury Lifestyle Brand

I came to Yvette looking for answers.I found her to be accurate and very pleasant to speak to.What I didn’t understand at first was the extent of her practice—how it could transform my mindset, my mentality, and my own spirituality.I’m still learning, but over time I have seen a hundredfold improvement in the way I manage my work as a Creative Director, juggling competing priorities alongside my day job.I told her I didn’t want to be in front of the camera, I was scared, and she kept saying I’m a wonderful speaker—I didn’t believe it till I saw myself on the screen.I’m ever so grateful to Yvette—her practice, her spirituality, and the way she does shamanic healing—for helping transform and boost my self-confidence.

— Creative Director, Luxury Retail Brand

I have always felt safe within the space that Yvette creates. This is why I return to work with her.I joined the Solar Summit with little knowledge of astrology and left with a new way of approaching myself.The guided visualisations were so useful and I came away with a new perspective and agency for what I might do next.You don’t have to digest everything on the day — it set a course for me with lots of revelations I can return to.

— Jo, Solar Summit: Your Permanent Solstice Participant

I’ve been fortunate enough to receive healing from Yvette on several occasions. She is a kind, generous and extremely skilled shamanic healer, warm and down-to-earth, and really listens. She has helped me towards real positive change in my life, it’s always a delight to see her. She’s a brilliant and insightful astrologer as well.

— Barbara Kennedy

Yvette is amazing! I have received shamanic healings and astrological consultations from her and I’ve always felt the impact and insights to be profound.With her sharp mind, deep compassion, and wit, listening to her is pure joy. Yvette is a milestone in my spiritual path.

— Petra

I am very touched by and grateful for the work of Yvette. It’s very profound, profoundly healing and does so good to me. Thank you so much Yvette, danke!

— Katharina Hoepfner

I feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity for a private consultation with Yvette Marks.Within just the first few minutes of walking me through my astrology chart, I genuinely felt that Yvette understood me on a deep level — inside and out. The session gave me valuable insights into myself, my life, and the things that shape who I am.What made the experience even more special was Yvette's ability to incorporate different techniques, including tarot, to provide practical guidance and a clearer path forward. Beyond helping me better understand myself, she offered thoughtful insights and actionable direction on how I can continue to grow, both personally and professionally, as well as nurture my relationships.I cannot recommend booking a session with Yvette enough. If you're looking to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, find clarity, and discover a more meaningful direction for your future, I believe a session with her would be truly worthwhile!

— Minh Le

I have had two astrology readings with Yvette, and both readings really resonated and were very helpful!The first reading really helped me with making a difficult decision I had been sitting on for a while. After the reading, it was very clear to me what the best path was, and I am so glad things unfolded the way they did — it all happened so perfectly.The second reading was also extremely helpful and I really resonated with everything she told me. She went over my kids’ charts as well, which I found very interesting and I think it will help me navigate my relationship with them as they continue to grow.In addition to the valuable insights she shared, Yvette’s warmth and kindness made working with her an especially enjoyable experience.

— Alison

I cannot recommend Yvette highly enough. A warm and calm being who clearly has some kind of deep, esoteric wisdom and insight.After my tarot reading with Yvette, I felt a great deal of peace and reassurance and I feel the months since the reading have been far smoother to navigate than if I had not seen her.

— Louise

Yvette is an absolutely extraordinarily intuitive tarot and astrological reader. I’ve used her services on a number of occasions when faced with a difficult decision or choosing a particular life road to take.It’s like she knows me better than I know myself! Compassionate and clear, with a wealth of astrological knowledge and psychic intuition that she uses specifically with your personal chart and circumstances; means that she can direct you to the heart and resolution of most problems and how your future may unfold.I’ve really begun to have a much clearer understanding of who I am from her excellent guidance. Cannot recommend her highly enough.

— Sarita Cameron

When I first started speaking to Yvette, I felt hollow and depleted within my own energy.I think I was suffering from a martyr syndrome of self-sacrifice and putting everybody’s needs in the family first, and not thinking about myself.Through speaking with Yvette I first of all learned to love myself, learned to empower myself, and over the months, I have found myself glowing, happy, and I feel my relationships with my family members have transformed into a healthier, happier space. My mental health is better because of my family dynamics being in a healthier space and I’m super grateful to Yvette for helping me to navigate that and for pulling me out of the martyr syndrome tendencies.

— Client testimonial

Yvette compiled an Astrology birth chart reading for me back in 2016. I was genuinely surprised at the accuracy of the information delivered in terms of identifying key personality traits and the timing of major life events. The reading helped me identify things I need to work on and has given me an excellent overview and perspective on my life. As a result, I have been able to identify blocks and patterns, which in turn has facilitated moving forward in life with more ease.Yvette was very professional in her approach, her in-depth knowledge of Astrology’s complex workings was delivered in a way I could easily understand and relate to. Her knowledge of people and personality types also comes across very well; this enhanced helpful insights and revelations for me throughout the reading. I would definitely recommend Yvette to anyone looking for guidance in their life through Astrology.

— Becky Morton

Very interesting and helpful to look at things from a different perspective and to think about why things may be happening as they do and to understand how my characteristics may help or hinder responses to them.

— Sian Barry

Yvette’s reading was very accurate and I was amazed at how well she described me. She also gave me pointers as to where I should be going with my career — things I have felt I should have been doing but have not listened to my inner voice. I am now about to embark on a course that I wish I had done years ago.Thanks Yvette, I have also told my daughter she should have a reading with you.

— Tegwin O’Connor

A very insightful — very telling reading.Yvette could see exactly what had been going on for me in the last few years by looking at my chart.I’m excited for what will begin to unfold later this year; I have the information now to know when to go for certain aspects in relation to what is highlighted in my chart.

— Tallulah Harlech

On the Introduction to Astrology course, Yvette created a fun, sacred and supportive space where I was able to explore the wisdom of our cosmic skies as a beginner in astrology.Right from the beginning, I came away feeling excited and hungry for more because of the insightful, intuitive and encouraging way in which Yvette teaches; she made the topic, which once seemed so overwhelming, easy to grasp in a step-by-step and meaningful way and I got to laugh heartily too.I learned a lot about myself and about what astrology can do. I would do this course again and, because of this introduction, I intend to study astrology professionally.

— Rosemary Roberts

Yvette’s readings are a pure mix of science, intuition and guidance.Every time I’ve had a reading with Yvette, quite a lot of it hasn’t been terribly clear to me — however, as the year starts to take hold, everything she explains starts to make a lot of sense.Every time, our sessions have been eye-opening, thought-provoking and very accurate! I’d recommend to anyone looking for guidance, questions answered, or even for an interesting insight into the year ahead.

I really enjoyed this event [By the Magic of the Moon] and got a great deal out of the experience.I feel I am moving forward with great positivity and peace of mind due to Yvette’s great knowledge of astrology.I look forward to other events Yvette will host in the future and I will also encourage my friends and family to attend as well.

Yvette gave me a very informative reading and explained why I have certain traits that I do!Very interesting and a great thing to do at the start of a new year.I came away with more of an understanding and what the stars above say about this year. Highly recommend!

I approached Yvette for an astrology reading not having clear ideas about what to expect. I did, however, know that it was at a time when changes were occurring personally both radically and rapidly.I was so pleased to have contacted Yvette at this time. She offered extremely rich, accurate and understandable insights about my life journey and character, as well as offering informed and helpful practical guidance.This information has been incredibly useful to help shed light on certain areas of my life, path and purpose, as well as contextualizing situations for future reference.

A chart reading with Yvette was insightful and inspiring.She gave me words of comfort and encouragement regarding my past and current struggles and some guidance as to what to focus on moving forward.I feel inspired now to learn about all that astrology has to offer and how it can inform and guide all our lives!

I asked Yvette a question about my work prospects for the future and got a full and satisfactory answer. The detail was fantastic and Yvette made it all so easy and simple to understand.I also had the opportunity of receiving some shamanic healing, which was carried out in a peaceful and caring manner, with extremely positive results.I am in no doubt that her work is genuine, that she has a positive link to spirit, which is reflected in her gift as an astrologer and shamanic healer.

I listened to the recording [of the mini reading] and I am blown away! Thank you so much for your insight, it resonated with me deeply.The reading helped me understand myself better and gave me the clarity I needed with regards to the question I asked. You got to the core of my chart beautifully.You are an extremely gifted astrologer and I will definitely come back to you in the future.

Thank you so much for the [mini] reading. It was very accurate, insightful, and gives guidance — it gives an outside perspective when it’s hard to get out of your head.

— Amanda

I have just listened three times to your [mini] reading… and to be honest, I was blown away.Your reading really helped clarify things for me.

— PB

Your [mini] reading was spot on.You have a brilliant talent for seeing the person within the chart.

— Margaret

Her [mini] reading was detailed and presented from many angles, yet she kept returning to the big picture themes present in my chart, so it all made sense. She wove together a story that brought together the information visually and emotionally, and I felt like we were casually chatting in the same room, even though she was miles away.Her knowledge of the traditions she’s working with seems endless and offered me a fresh perspective on my questions.I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again soon.

— Lyn

The mini ‘scopes reading was perfect for responding to my very specific issue and helped me to understand the experience as a whole.Your reading with Spirit was remarkable. You unknowingly picked up on a very specific and key element of Spirit that I have connected with in recent months.Direct, and without question.
