Northstar serves as a soul guide who is devoted to helping young ones, women, and all those lost in the darkness of our times to find their path and orient back to their own True North. Her matrilineal line hails from Eastern Europe, while her patrilineal line has Irish and Germanic roots, weaving a rich yet frayed tapestry of ancestral traditions. It is part of her life’s work to excavate the broken shards of her lost lineages to reassemble a living mythos and devotional practice that both looks to the past with honor and reverence, while yet being born anew to speak to these times of Great Turning.  

She holds profound gratitude for the teachers and guides who shaped and supported her along her long and winding soul journey. Deepest thanks to Durga Om of Lemon Tree Yoga in Glens Falls, NY who trained her as a yoga teacher in a path of Raja Yoga that serves as a foundation of her spiritual practice; to her mentor, Tracey Forest, who led her through a 3 year Shamanic Apprenticeship called Seeing with the Heart at Spirit Hollow in VT where Northstar continues to collaborate and co-guide ongoing programs in service of regenerating eco & soul-centric culture; and to Jonah Roberts and Una Gallagher who initiated her into the Priestesshood of Earth and Sky through the path of 13 Moons, in NH. 

Northstar has pledged herself in service to the Red Goddess- the Goddess of Love and the Goddess of War who has been called by a million names and reveals Herself in infinite faces as She who reconciles polarities in the endless and divine interplay of light and shadow. She is a student of the Blood Mysteries of birth/death/and rebirth, destruction and regeneration- honoring the fullness of the cycles that govern the turning of the cosmos, the great wheel of nature, and are expressed in microcosm in the body of the feminine through the menstrual cycle, governed by the ever changing phases of the Moon.

She lives in the Mohawk Valley of central New York, on the ancestral homeland of the Mohawk people. There, she is re-wilding and re-membering the ways of living on the Earth in reciprocity and symbiosis through the study and practice of permaculture. Northstar is rooting down deeply into the sacred mountain she calls home- apprenticing to Mama Gaia and the Crystal Beings she is honored to co-habitate with, as keepers of both the ancient wisdom of this planet, as well as vehicles of attunement to the divine patterning of the whole universe.
