Cosmic Wayfinding

Navigating Change Together

Welcome Home to Yourself

Queer, Ecological, Embodied Astrology + Ceremonial Reconnection

We used to know who we were, where we were going, and why it matters.

We just forgot.

I’m here to help you remember what your soul has chosen, using your birth chart as a map back to your unique purpose in a Universe that needs each and every one of us.

Through ancient + modern principles + practices, we ground this remembering in cosmic cycles and everyday ritual.

Rediscover magic, re-ensoul the world, and find your way again.

Helping people reclaim lineage, reframe their story, and integrate healing is my mission.

By weaving ancient and modern astrology + timekeeping systems, knowledges + lifeways, stories + rituals, and healing modalities, we replace the “void” of othering, transition, and confusion with a mycelial network of connection to self, others, + the more-than-human realms.

Navigating Deep Transition

Contextualizing, tracking, and navigating changes such as death + loss, illness + injury, breaking addictive patterns, leaving unhealthy relationships, or spiritual + soul evolution.

Queer + Trans Embodiment

Whether you’re newly questioning or have been out for years, we’ll work together to discover + embody your true self and connect with queer and trans+ lineage. You are not alone.

Healing Beyond the System

Finding somatic and intuitive recovery paths when traditional institutional support falls short or feels restrictive.

Integrating Breakthrough Experiences

Translating the wisdom of altered states—from psychedelic journeys to ceremonies, retreats, and spiritual exploration—into lasting, lived change.

The cosmos is calling: it needs you.

In our modern world, we are rarely taught how to handle the ruptures that break us open.

With the right tools, support, and insight, they can become our biggest breakthroughs.

Whether you are moving through the often difficult journey toward

queer, gender, or relationship liberation; experiencing trauma, grief, or chronic pain;

or embarking on a spiritual awakening that feels more like an undoing—you do not have to navigate the void alone.

Together, we will transform your wanderings and woundings into portals of power .

“Riordan gave me an astrological reading based on my chart that absolutely blew my mind. I have had hundreds of readings over my lifetime and none have ever been so accurate and deeply attuned.”

— Client
  • "This reading made from a Queer perspective was truly enlightening and it really made my day, leaving me with a positive feeling about myself and some future upcoming events. Plus the way they narrate and describe things is really lovely. I recommend and am looking forward to my next reading."

    — Client

  • "Riordan is an exceptional astrologer, with a rare depth of knowledge and an integrated understanding of personal development, well-being, and healing. This combination makes each reading feel not only insightful, but genuinely useful, practical and transformative. I cannot recommend them highly enough."

    — Client

  • "Beyond the accuracy of the reading itself, the guidance, support and clarity Riordan offered was incredibly grounding and reassuring. It helped me feel confident and supported in making important life decisions."

    — Client

  • "At the time, I was on the brink of a major life change that was highly specific and quite unusual in its nature. Without any prompting, Riordan described this transition with extraordinary precision and insight, truly hitting the nail on the head."

    — Client

  • "I am genuinely impressed with Riordan's reading. They have outlined numerous fascinating details that I've never heard before from other astrologers or from my own online research. "

    — Client

I believe in a world that is ensouled, integrated, + mycelial. In this framework, consciousness is relational, healing is systemic, & queer liberation is possible. Love is the fabric of an emergent universe that needs each of us—exactly as we are.

"Astrology is not a thing separate from life. ... It is simply a tool, one of many possible tools, which may be used in any number of ways, ... guiding us through various initiations, transformations, and crucial transitions."

—Steven Arroyo, Astrology, Karma, & Transformation

  • I help you re-ensoul your world by establishing reciprocal relationships with the more-than-human realms: the dead, the forests, and archetypal, energetic forces. We normalize the paranormal to restore direct experience with a living, loving cosmos in which you play a needed role.

  • I view death, pain, divorce, suicidality, and healing from abuse not as failures, but portals. By destigmatizing and working with these experiences as catalysts for awakening, we transform "rupture" into sacred invitation for systemic regeneration.

  • I advocate for your right to explore and reclaim your own consciousness. Whether through plant, fungal, + animal teachers or self-experimentation, we establish a baseline of safety, self-advocacy, embodiment, + ecological, queer joy to navigate the human experience.

  • What modern society labels as "disordered" or "divergent," I recognize as the mark of the healer. I hold space for neuro-expansiveness and shifting physical abilities, reclaiming the legacy of the seer and priestx for those of us who move differently through the world.

  • My work is a commitment to anti-racism, equality, + the pursuit of continual transformation. Through seasonal ceremony, ancestral exploration, meditation, + mindfulness, we resource ourselves to help all beings everywhere experience liberation.

  • Whether you’re facing self-queer-, trans-, or biphobia; exploring or transitioning gender; navigating relationship expansion; or questioning your queerness, we’ll walk the path together, tracing patterns and charting a course to help you find your way.

Ceremonial Living Sessions

Everyday Magic | Cyclical Alignment | Re-Ensoulment

Learning becomes embodied through ritual. While these sessions can be taken alone, they best serve to deepen and ground your wayfinding work or astrological foundation through engaging the archetypes and cycles within and without.

Modern life pulls us in a hundred directions, leaving us dysregulated and disconnected from the Earth. When we feel lost, we often chase consumer "solutions"—but what we are truly seeking is grounding and rhythm. I offer practical tools to help you pause, find the portals in everyday life, and realign your inner world with the living cycles of the seasons.

What We Practice:

* Everyday Magic: Turn astrological phases and seasonal shifts into powerful anchors for grounding and presence.

* Bespoke Rituals: Create custom ceremonies for significant life events or specific personal portals.

* Nourishing Daily Rituals: Develop sustainable practices, including altar work, journaling prompts, meditations, and sacred pauses to resist the theft of your attention.


60-, 90-, or 120-min sessions. Online or in-person (where possible) | One-time or ongoing.

Cosmic Wayfinding Sessions

Astrology | Cyclical Realignment | Ceremonial Invitation

Reconnect with your true essence through a blend of ancient, modern, + archetypal astrology and timekeeping systems. Weaving these with Earth-based and intuitive practices + guidance, we begin to discover the "music of the spheres" playing your life’s song; the themes informing your soul’s unique purpose; and the issues, characters, + patterns that are part of longer cosmic timelines.

These sessions follow an inquiry-based approach, examining a question, issue, problem, or area of focus from multiple perspectives. They are especially well-suited to transitions, such as:

  • Expanding and exploring gender, sexual, and relationship identities

  • Grief and loss

  • Illness, injury, neurodivergence, and chronic conditions

  • Karmic/dharmic timelines and ancestral patterns

  • Spiritual transition, departure, expansion, and exploration

  • Leaving or navigating abusive or unhelpful relationships and families

  • Exploring major life decisions, from going back to school to career transition, nomading, and lifestyle transition

Weaving timelines and traditions, we begin uncovering your soul’s path through space, time, place, and purpose, both unique and part of a cosmic whole; diverging with personal, ancestral, generational, + environmental roads and including communities and families both chosen and inherited. Sessions include invitations to further self-inquiry and can include ceremonial and journaling prompts, if desired.

My approach is grounded in extensive astrological and ceremonial practice, training/education, research, and lived experience. I combine channeled insight with learning + guidance from 1:1 mentorships and apprenticeship cohorts, as well as membership and spaceholding in spiritual, practice-based, and community containers.

I am not a licensed mental health professional, but have extensive training in therapeutic methods and ancestral medicines and traditions, along with lived and peer-/community-supported experience. Where helpful, I can provide referrals to practitioners in my trusted network who support specialized work and support for issues beyond my scope of practice.

What We Explore:

* Navigate Transition: Find hope, clarity, + grounded orientation during difficult life chapters.

* Ancient Systems, Modern Life: Reclaim your place within ancestral timekeeping methods, identifications, + cosmic cycles to restore meaning to your daily experience.

* Soul Mapping: Rediscover your purpose by aligning with the cosmic energies already present in your story.

Wayfinding Package: Past, Present, + Future Inquiry

Cosmic Self-Inquiry | Timeline Weaving | Soul-Evolutionary Journey

This embodies the true essence of Cosmic Wayfinding, enabling the method to follow its intended arc; unlocking the full benefits of received insights and practice. In these packages, we explore the complete timeline of your question over three sessions: Past, Present, + Future. Time is cyclical, and to be fully grasped and integrated, inquiries must expand beyond the current moment, but a given lifetime.

We’ll climb inside your inquiry through both the individual readings and prompts and invitations for ceremony, self-inquiry, and journaling in-between sessions. Through this holistic approach, we’ll examine the issues, characters, and patterns involved from evolutionary, quantum, seasonal, ancestral, and cosmic perspectives, facilitating an embodied understanding of the inquiry as part of the lesson I believe your soul came here to learn.

Wayfinding is not one-and-done; it unfolds gradually and cyclically, like your life. We build in time between sessions for integration, allowing space for the question to open, expand, and evolve; refining as we go. This helps you discover a deeper remembrance of not only your inquiry, but its unique role in your life and the cosmic story.

Readings involve my intuitive, relational, queer approach to astrology, combining ancient and modern techniques, concepts, and cosmologies: from Hellenistic, Egyptian, and Mayan to quantum, archetypal, and evolutionary. I weave in channeled transmissions and insights from spiritual, ceremonial, and ancestral practice, research, and approach. See Cosmic Wayfinding Sessions for a complete description.

This package includes a free 30-minute Discovery Call to begin exploring your inquiry before we dive in. If you start with a Discovery Call and decide to pursue a package, the cost of the call will be discounted from your total.

The Journey:

* Past: We explore the origins of your inquiry as part of a larger conversation, rooted in your childhood and interwoven with stories and concepts built about yourself through the influence of family, culture, lineage, local and global communities, time, place and environment, and past actions through different phases of life.

* Present: The only experience we can truly embody is the present. We return to the origins of your inquiry, revisiting the Discovery Call and how the questions, issues, and characters have and haven’t changed, as well as your relationship to the inquiry and these factors. We look at your allies and challengers across the realms and explore what could facilitate flow, provide resistance, and present opportunities to turn struggle into growth.

* Future: This session positions you at the trailhead of the path forward: examining how your inquiry has evolved both within you and through your outer world; exploring possible trajectories for action, allowance, and evolution. The goal is to leave you empowered to chart your own course, drawing upon established guides, allies, and practices with prompts for ongoing reflection and refinement.


Format:

One preliminary 30-minute Discovery Call; three (3) 90-min sessions; prompts and invitation for ritual, reflection, and response between and after sessions. Online or in-person (where possible).

Multiple packages and/or ongoing customizable containers are possible for single or multiple inquires, as well as to explore the ways they intersect and inform larger personal, ancestral, and social timelines. Let’s work together to create spaces that meet you where you are and position you for where you want to be—at prices you can afford.

My expertise is not just studied; it is lived …

I’m Riordan 🏳️‍⚧️ (they/them) + my path has been shaped by my own queer identity + path to liberation

  • Deconstructing a lifetime of Evangelical, cultural, + self-repression to emerge in my true identities: queer, trans, neuro-expansive, + relationship anarchist.

  • Through a path of Earth-based, animist, and pagan spiritual practices; ancestral healing and reclamation; kundalini yoga; energy healing; and working with the more-than-human realms, I am healing lifelong and intergenerational wounds, reclaiming self after an abusive relationship, and loving life after suicidality.

  • I rebuilt my life after breaking my pelvis and sacrum in five places—healing through community, medicine work, herbalism, + intuitive guidance. I now rely on these allies to navigate chronic pain and different physical ability with increasing ease and love.
