How Astrology Healed My Money Story
(and Why It Could Do the Same for You)
I remember when money felt more like a monster under the bed than a tool to empower me. It seemed to control me — not the other way around. I lived in a feast-or-famine cycle for years. Whenever I manifested a bit more, it seemed to disappear just as quickly. The shame around this pattern made me feel powerless. I kept wondering, “How can someone who’s smart, ambitious, and creative be so… bad with money?”
Deep down, I suspected it wasn't that I was bad with it — it was that I hadn’t gotten to the root of my relationship with it.
Why It Was So Emotional
Some of us carry stories about scarcity, shame, and overwhelm in our nervous systems. My story started in my family of origin. My dad was responsible and disciplined with money; my mom, less so. The contrast was confusing. It made me internalize this feeling that financial stability was something you were either born into or not — a kind of fate you couldn’t change.
Because of this, I fell into a pattern many women do: ignoring my bank account, avoiding financial decisions, and letting lifestyle inflation undermine whatever progress I made. It wasn't about discipline; it was about a deep feeling of powerlessness — a feeling I hadn’t gotten from education or motivation, but from my earliest models and beliefs.

My Turning Point: Turning To Astrology
Instead of ignoring these patterns, I decided to face them. That meant turning inward first — and that's where astrology came in.
My birth chart, a snapshot of the heavens when I was born, revealed key patterns about my financial journey. It explained:
Why I fell into cycles of scarcity and overwhelm.
Why discipline and budgeting strategies meant well but fell flat for me.
Why certain financial moves seemed destined to backfire, no matter how much I tried.
Instead of framing these as “flaws” in me, my chart made me realize they were simply patterns — energetic imprints — that I could work with and heal.
Using my chart, I made peace with the way I naturally operate. I stopped forcing myself into financial strategies designed for someone else's nervous system and started honoring my own.
I addressed scarcity stories stemming from my Moon and 2nd House placements. I recognized where lifestyle inflation was a form of “self-soothing” — trying to fill an unmet need — and I addressed that need directly. I also recognized the power of my North Node and Midheaven to guide me toward abundance in a way that felt true and purposeful.
Instead of ignoring or avoiding, I turned toward these patterns with compassion. I challenged beliefs that were not mine to carry and made space for a new financial narrative — a story in which I am in flow with abundance.
“There is no greater power than a woman determined to rise.”

My transformation wasn't just about me. It made me realize how many women suffer under the weight of financial shame — thinking there’s something fundamentally flawed in them — when it's really a matter of understanding their unique energetic blueprints.
That's why I created Cosmic ATM. It’s a space where we align money strategies with your soul's unique pattern. Instead of ignoring or battling against your nature, we learn to work with it. We leverage your birth chart to illuminate your financial blocks and activate your abundance codes.
Your financial struggles aren’t a reflection of your worth; they’re signals — messages from your soul — asking you to heal a story you may not even realize you’re living.
Astrology is a powerful tool in this process because it shows us we’re not all meant to do it the same way.
It guides us back to ourselves. It lets us release shame and realize:
Your greatest financial flow comes from honoring who you truly are.
