About me
My name is Michela, and I am an Astrologer born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA. I have been studying astrology for 2 and a half years. I spent the first few years of my post grad life in Cleveland OH after graduating from Kent State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, which included a concentration in Counseling Careers. In the last year, I recently returned back to my roots during the start of my Saturn Return (iykyk), and I’m officially back in Steelers county for good! I have one cat, Twyla. She’s my fiery little Aries girl!!
Since I was young, I knew I wanted to be in a helping/healing profession. That’s why I initially pursued a psychology degree—my goal was to become a therapist. Once I graduated and got my first entry-level job in the mental health field, I quickly realized that my Cancer Rising self was a little too empathetic for my own good. I felt as though I couldn’t establish the appropriate balance between caring enough, and caring too much. It began to take a toll on me, so I pivoted, and found myself in a boring “Corporate America” career while re-evaluating what I truly wanted to do long term. When my career started to show signs of instability, I happened to come across Astrology, right around the total eclipse in 2024. Once I realized my birth chart held insight into a career path, that was it…I was locked in. I completely immersed myself in the study. In fact, the first accurate prediction I made 6 months ahead of time was that I would be laid off from my job in early 2025 once Saturn moved to conjoin my MC. That is exactly what happened! At that point, I was unemployed, and becoming a student of Astrology became my full time job (in addition to actual job hunting, of course).It quickly became clear to me that Astrology is my calling. I still get the emotional fulfillment of helping and healing, but in a more empowering and inspiring way. People seek out therapy for sorting out their emotional underworld, but people seek out Astrology to find their path forward. Helping and healing is truly my passion. I truly cannot put into words the pure bliss I feel after a really productive reading, where the client leaves feeling relieved, aligned, and empowered. To introduce myself as my Big 3-Taurus Sun, Virgo Moon, Cancer Rising. I have always had an affinity with the Moon, since way before I even knew anything about Astrology. My grandmother, a devout Catholic woman, used to make pregnancy predictions for the women around her by studying the phases of the Moon in the Farmer’s Almanac (she had a surprisingly solid accuracy rating!), so clearly my lunar pull is generational. It only makes sense that I am Moon-ruled!
My goal is to help you regain a sense of autonomy over your life. When you feel like you’ve completely lost control over your life, that’s when the future begins to feel bleak, and the path forward becomes hazy. I am here to show you that you have complete control and agency over your destiny. All you need is a little guidance. The planetary bodies are just that—a resource, a blueprint, and a map. I am here to erase the anxiety of the fear of the unknown, to clear your path going forward, and to re-instate autonomy, empowerment, and confidence into your everyday life.
