An opportunity to gain perspective on the season you're moving through, with a recording you can revisit as these themes continue to unfold.

Astrology Session — $200 (60 min · Live 1:1)

What becomes possible when we explore your chart together?

Your birth chart is more than a map of planetary placements. It's a living reflection of the archetypal forces, potentials, and possibilities that unfold throughout your life.

In this hour together, we move beyond interpretation and into conversation, exploring how the symbolism of your chart is expressing itself through you and what it reveals about the life you are here to live.

Whether we're exploring your natal chart, solar return, current transits, or revisiting themes from a previous session, there's room to ask questions, peel back the layers, and make connections that might otherwise remain unseen.

Unlike a recorded reading, this is a shared exploration, where your lived experience becomes just as important as the astrology itself.

Doula Support

How do you want to remember your birth?

Will you remember being heard? Having choices? Feeling informed, cared for, and connected to your own agency?

Birth is an initiation into the unknown. While we cannot control exactly how it unfolds, we can tend to how you are held within it.

Doula support offers a steady presence through this threshold, protecting space for you to feel supported, empowered, and an active participant in your own experience.

Support includes:

  • Two prenatal visits to connect, explore your birth preferences, and prepare for the journey ahead.

  • Continuous emotional, physical, and informational support throughout labor and birth.

  • One postpartum visit to reflect, integrate, and tend to your transition into motherhood.

  • A mini birth chart reading for your little one.

  • A complimentary copy of The Mama Deck, 50 love notes for every season of motherhood.

Sliding-scale pricing is available. Inquire to explore working together.

About

I’m Melissa Perez—Mother, Certified Sky Scholar Astrologer, Birth + PP Doula, and Co-Creator of Embodied Mama.

Born under a solar eclipse with the Sun and Moon in Sagittarius, resting between the 8th house of death and rebirth and the 9th house of faith and meaning, it makes all the sense that my work would be in supporting those in liminal spaces — whether you are moving through uncertainty, grief, or a transition into new meaning and expansion.

I have learned that descent is not the opposite of growth, but the very soil of it. It is where we find our greatest gold, reclaim lost parts of ourselves, and remember our innate capacity and wholeness.

My approach is intuitive and reverent. I honor your sovereignty while also recognizing the larger forces that shape a life. I believe our questions often offer us more than our answers, so I help you tend to them.

Whether through astrology, poema, or the threshold of birth, my work is an invitation to listen more closely to what life is revealing, to tend what is asking for your attention, and to deepen trust in the unfolding of your own path.

Tools for the Journey

A free three-page guide to the archetypal forces alive in your birth chart

Astrology is a symbolic language.

Long before we understand the chart, we encounter its symbols — the ram, the scales, the lion, the crab. Strange glyphs carrying stories that have been passed from generation to generation.

This free bundle is your introduction to that language.

What’s Woven Into a Session

    Astrology as Mirror

    Astrology provides a mythic map, one that reflects the deeper patterns and archetypes shaping your life. Together, we explore the invitations present in your chart - your gifts, edges, longings, and soul curriculum.

    This lens brings language to the unspoken and often affirms what you already know but haven’t yet named.It invites you to participate in your unfolding — to trust the forces shaping your life, and to receive the lessons that are unique to your soul.

    "We are all a plurality of voices; the more we can listen to all of them, the richer our experience of life becomes."- James Hillman

    Soul Doula Presence

    To doula is to tend. To remain close to what is unfolding without needing to control its outcome. It is the practice of presence, of listening, of paying attention.

    These initiations ask something of us: a quality of presence that can remain with the intensity, uncertainty, and transformation of the experience. To doula is to attune to the mother and to the space, discerning what is needed, what is changing, and what may need protecting.

    It is not about directing the experience, but tending the conditions in which a mother can remain connected to herself as she moves through it.

    “Attention is the beginning of devotion.” - Mary Oliver

    Story Weaving

    Story weaving is the practice of listening and meaning-making. Together, we explore how to honor your experiences and gently reshape your narrative not to bypass pain, but to ask: what meaning expands me? What story brings more breath, not less?

    This work invites agency, tenderness, and truth. We attune to the river beneath the river the soul’s quiet current and let it guide the unfolding of your story with more trust and inner alignment.

    "Your soul’s story isn’t about finding yourself; it’s about creating yourself. We each have a mythopoetic identity — a story as unique as a fingerprint." - Bill Plotkin
