Expert's Insight

Celeste, Astrologer & Tarot Reader

Celeste

Astrologer & Tarot Reader

Cancer clients are the empaths of the zodiac, and in my practice they often come seeking boundaries rather than openness. The Moon's influence makes them incredibly attuned to emotional undercurrents. What I tell them is that their sensitivity isn't a wound to heal — it's an antenna to calibrate.
