Astrology with Amanda Rose Campanaro
Natal Birth Chart Readings + Private Classes
Amanda Rose Campanaro - Astrologer, 230 hour Yoga Teacher, Intuitive Energy Healer
As an Astrologer, I fuse classic systems with modern cutting edge concepts to create a practice that is focused on personal discovery & intuitive development.
I have over 5 years and 500 hundred personal hours of study, mentorship and private research between Tropical & True Sidereal systems of Astrology. I also have a background in Social Services, Mental health advocacy, mindful movement and energy healing; all of which have become core components of The Mindful Magick Method! It has become my passion to help others understand their personal cycles, become empowered in their unique essence, and hone in on their greatest talents and gifts.
My Astrology practice runs through the Fall/Winter months where I focus on 1:1 mentorship and group education.
In my Astrology offerings, you can find a mix of personal discovery and holistic wellness within them.
Option a) 60 minute Astrology Reading
Book this session if you wish to receive specific insights on your Natal Birth Chart. You will receive customized notes and resources to support you on your self discovery journey. We will discuss the key elements of your chart and your personal cycles to promote self awareness, empowerment and alignment.
Option b) 60 minute Astrology Reading & Energy Healing
Half Astrology reading, half energy healing. For the first 30 minutes, we will dive into what's happening in the cosmo's and how it's impacting your personal cycles and energy in life. From there, we will take that data and use it to create an energy healing practice that is specifically geared towards your needs at the time. This practice will include guided breath and meditation, as well as Reiki and Huna healing.
Each session will cost $111 + tax.
Conscious Kids Workshops
Thursday April 14th
Back by popular demand!! A fun and soulful mix of ecstatic movement, circle time and mindfulness. Perfect for all children, ages 4-7 yo.
About this event
Hi! I'm Hayley, a school teacher, dancer, mental health advocate and lover about all things wellness and mindfulness. I am devoted to encouraging children to embody their gifts and build their resiliency and confidence through ecstatic movement, mindfulness and healthy communication, all the while deepening their capacity for emotional intelligence.
The intention for these workshops is to build a supportive and tight knit community, where children leave feeling nourished, seen and loved for exactly who they are. I am passionate about creating this space for children that will give them freedom to play, express themselves, and connect on a deeper level. Meditation, free and fun movement, and authentic relating while building a beautiful and true community are gifts I want to share with each and every child I work with.
My mission is to instill children with a stable sense of self through introspective prompts, empowering them with tools for emotional regulation, and reminding them of their innate inner power, that they always have access to. When a child is encouraged to dance to the beat of their own drum, and cultivate their unique soul signature, magic ensues. When children see other kids being celebrated for their gifts, they feel free to express themselves without reservation.
Expression & FUN + Community & Guidance
= Resilient + Confident kids
See you in the workshop!
The Beyond Strong Project
Begins February
The function of art is to do more than tell it like it is - it’s to imagine what is possible. “
bell hooks
The Beyond Strong Project is a 7 month project starting in February 2022 for Black women.
It is funded by the @ontarioartscouncil so memeberships are sliding scale. (Pay what you can).
The project offers 14 experiences led by 6 artists over a 7 month period.
You can attend as many or as little experiences as you like. (Virtual and in person experiences available)
These experiences offer liberation through song writing, adornment, ancestral embodiment, dance, visual arts, and (digital) collage making.
Sign up through the link in the bio @beyond_strong_community
The Beyond Strong Project inspires Black women to move beyond the strong Black woman trope and embrace a life of liberation, joy and ease.
Can you imagine a life centered on rest, pleasure, and joy?
We can. And the artists in this project have found many ways to cultivate practices that support this kind of life.
Join us this year and find your own path to liberation, joy and ease. Follow @beyond_strong_community for more details.
Thanks to @ontarioartscouncil for funding this project.
