An astrology reading with Ada Pembroke is a conversation about stories: the characters, conflicts, and turning points that have shaped who you are and where you are going.
Ada is the creator of narrative astrology and has over a decade of experience as a professional astrologer. She helps you revise the stories that feel like fate, understand why certain patterns keep repeating, and know yourself more honestly.
Astrology Readings
Tea with an Astrologer
A casual conversation that’s all about you in a cozy study, surrounded by books with a nice cup of tea.
(Or, at least, as close as we can get to that feeling on Zoom…)
Narrative Astrology Reading
If you were the protagonist in your own life story, what kind of character would you be? What kind of story are you in? What are your real motivations, and what are you here to learn?
$220, 1 hour session on Zoom (includes video recording and transcript)
Astrology of Place Reading
We all have a unique relationship with geography. You feel it when you find a place that's just right. Using astrocartography and relocation charts, we'll explore questions like: Where on Earth do you feel comfortable? What places are likely to challenge you? What do you need to find home... or just a particularly nice vacation?

Let's Rewrite Your Chiron
Chiron is one of the Big Bads of astrology: bearer of an incurable wound, rejected by his mother, condemned to never fit in... Or, is that the whole story? Before Chiron was wounded, he was adopted by the gods and lived a deeply fulfilling life as a teacher and healer. In this reading, we talk about that side of the story.
What can Chiron tell you about how you have been adopted by the gods? What gifts have they given you? How are you specially equipped to teach and heal others?

Let’s talk about Sedna
Sedna was named after the Inuit goddess of the sea and protector of marine mammals, and she tends to feature prominently in the charts of advocates and people who have had a rough time with rejection by parents. In this reading, we'll explore how she shows up for you personally and what she has to teach you.

Birthday Reading (existing clients)
You've gotten a Narrative Astrology Reading, so you already know what your life story is about.
But how does this year fit into that story? What particular challenges and opportunities can you expect?
(The techniques I use for this reading are Firdaria, progressed moon phases, annual profections, solar return charts, and transits.)

Client Love
“Ada’s depth of knowledge is beyond expansive, and she has the innate ability to meet you wherever you are at in your astrological journey. She doesn’t deliver information, she offers a container where insights emerge from her effortlessly guided exchange.
Ada’s narrative astrology approach allows for you to truly find your own path, knowing you are supported and seen as you step into a vibrant life to dance in unity with the planets.”
“My reading with Ada was exactly what I wanted and I didn’t even know what I wanted.
Not being brand new to astrology (I know what conjunct means!), but not being an expert, she was able to level up the conversation so I understood and was able to expand my knowledge. She was able to answer specific questions about my chart, validate why I do things I do, help me understand how I can work better with my chart, and identified ways to help me mitigate issues I’ve been having.
Additionally, she’s super nice, knowledgeable, and easy to chat with. Our hour sped by and I can’t wait to talk to her again. ”
“The readings are definitely worth the wait. I love, love, LOVE this.”
“It really helped my headspace and my heart.”
“Home is indeed very important to me, something I think I’ve had and lost, but your reading makes me hopeful I’ll find again.”
“Holy crap that reading was extremely accurate.”
“Thank you for the reading, everything made perfect sense and hit very close to home.”
“Thank you for all your thoughts and the reading. I can’t express how helpful it’s been and in its own right given me a bit of direction and a thing to work on within myself.”
“Such an excellent reading! The video game metaphors make total sense to me.”
Frequently Asked Questions
-
I have been a professional astrologer since 2015. I practice narrative astrology which is my personal blend of evolutionary astrology, traditional techniques, and storytelling.
My roots are in evolutionary astrology. I was mentored by evolutionary astrologer Paul Richard and studied in Steven Forrest’s apprenticeship program.
Over the last few years, I have been studying traditional astrology and finding empowering and affirming ways to incorporate techniques like sect, dignity, and profections into my practice.
Before I was an astrologer, I was a fiction writer and founding editor of a literary magazine. I have an MFA in creative writing, published my stories and essays in anthologies and magazines, and taught workshops on science fiction writing in Silicon Valley.
