My story

My Journey so far

My name is Jen Reed. I am a practitioner and student of traditional and modern astrology blended with human design and energy systems. I love studying both ancient and modern approaches to help my clients tap into their true selves.

I am fascinated by how astrology, human design, kabbalah, old magick, and Eastern energy systems such as the iChing (yin/yang) blend together. These systems connect in streams of consciousness that we don’t even realize. I am incredibly passionate about bringing this knowledge into practical everyday life.

I’ve been sensitive to energy my whole life. I just didn’t know what I was experiencing exactly, and therefore, never learned to work with energy until now. In “woo-woo terms,” I could be called clairsentient – someone capable of experiencing and feeling energy more intuitively. But there is nothing special about this ability. A lot of people experience this; they just don’t recognize it for what it is.

I have always been fascinated by mediums and psychics. But it took more than half my life before I finally got up the courage to meet with one. During our first meeting, the psychic (Anita @ For Your Higher Good) had written notes on me before I even walked in the door – using only my first name. She had written down, “suffer in silence,” “outside vs. inside”, “people pleaser”, “is your work honoring you? change.”, “the image in your mind is the image you created.” I felt her notes were spot on and pointed towards beginning a new uncharted path in my life.

Now typically, I don’t say much to people when I first meet them, and I certainly don’t “open up,” but I felt strangely comfortable with her. I told her about the weird and strange “spiritual woo-woo” occurrences throughout my life, and by the middle of the session, she said, “Jen, you’re an empath. Do you know what that is?”

This was how my empowerment journey started and the beginning of working with Anita.

The world of patterns and cycles has awakened me. As I recognize them, accept life’s weird synchronicities, and just show up with a giving heart and open mind, my journey as a cosmic storyteller and energy healer is expanding. The path I was on in 2020 is no longer the path I am on now. I believe all the things in my life have pointed me in this direction. And while I still have occasional struggles with walking this new path, my heart knows this is the right direction for me, and I am ready to accept and work with my gifts more, however, they might show up.

BECOMING YOU

Just “BE AUTHENTIC”

Through studying your cosmic makeup, you learn more about yourself and naturally begin to re-align in ways that are very hard to explain in words. It’s a feeling in your body and a simple way of flowing in the moment. You become attuned to when you’re not authentically yourself in the NOW. “Authenticity” is a buzzword these daysjust “Be Authentic.” But what does that mean?!? And how do you get there?!?

To me, being your most Authentic self means eliminating external influential conditioning. It’s about realizing that the person you aspire to be is the person you’ve been all along if you only removed the background noise. External factors have deeply conditioned our minds, leading us astray from our inner wisdom. We’ve absorbed too much external conditioning and given other voices too much importance and control over our decision-making.

Genuine Authenticity comes from a place of alignment with the version of yourself where you can freely make your own choices. And those choices are driven by what YOU fundamentally care about. It’s a journey that stretches you, making you face your discomforts and your strongly conditioned responses and habitual resistances. It’s a process that requires you to be self-aware “in the now,” which is the first step in your journey of figuring out what true Authenticity means for YOU.

Why choose ME

My purpose is to help you embrace the true authentic potential of your Cosmic Design.

STUDYING YOUR COSMIC DESIGN

Cosmic Design

I fully believe your soul’s journey begins by diving into your “Cosmic Design.” Looking at yourself through the objective and non-judgmental lens of astrology and human design is a great way to explore your inner workings. It’s about understanding the unique energy you were born with and how it influences you and your relationships. Knowing the power you are personally here to work with in this lifetime creates a freedom in you that is hard to put into words.

To be your most Authentic self means eliminating external influential conditioning. It means being brave to stand up for yourself. It means making decisions for YOU and not because someone else demanded or required something of you. It’s about realizing that the person you aspire to be is the person you’ve been all along if you just removed the background noise. External factors have deeply conditioned our minds, leading us astray from our inner wisdom. We’ve absorbed too much external conditioning and given other voices too much credit in our decision-making.

We must strive to listen better to our own sense of guidance and direction. We can’t hear ourselves through the external noise of the other and chatter of our own minds. In essence, this is what studying your design is all about—a journey towards reclaiming your authentic self and living a life in alignment with your inner truth – whatever that means for YOU.
