the pluto work offered me an opportunity to do deeply personal, ancestral, spiritual healing work while fully facing and confronting the horrific realities of these times we are living through: institutional collapse, plutocracy, climate crisis, mounting authoritarianism, and the raw and festering wounds of centuries of white supremacy and genocide. this is an authentic healing framework for embodying transformation, unlearning, and repatterning to co-create life-affirming ways of being and doing, starting from the inside out. hummingbird is the real deal—a gifted astrologer, fiercely intelligent, skilled in well-honed healing practices, intimately connected to her own spiritual guidance, and authentically open and humble enough to walk aside as a partner on the journey rather than the detached guru-type presence that healing practitioners so easily default to within systems of domination. the depth and breadth of astrological content offered a roadmap for me to track my own journey to healing myself and unlocking my contributions and responsibilities in this historical moment. the mind-body-spirit modalities and readings offered by hummingbird allowed new self-awareness to integrate and settle into my body, revealing surprising blessings of wonder, patience, and self-compassion. if you want to skip over the messy, human, grief-laden dimensions of spiritual work, go see another practitioner! but if you want to allow the powerful times we are living in to pierce your heart, and expand your courage and capacity, i strongly recommend the pluto work with hummingbird.
