Stellar Life & Spiritual Guidance

Welcome! 

I’m Yolanda B. McAdam, a professional astrologer certified in 1997 by the Astrological Institute of  Research and Studies. Born and raised in South Africa, I read my first astrology book, Linda Goodman’s Love Signs, when I was ten years old.  I followed that up with Linda’s Sun Signs and Parker’s Astrology. I still recommend those books to my students alongside the classics like William Lilly’s Christian Astrology, Valens and everything by Demetra George. 

​

I am a forever student and am obsessed not only with astrology (modern and traditional) but also depth psychology, magic and women’s wisdom. Writing is a huge part of my practice and I am currently in the process of writing a book and creating a self-paced course that is very close to my heart.  

​

My work is informed not only by my own and my clients’ experiences and wisdom but also by a greater community of helpers and teachers which include my ancestors, the planets, stars, trees, plants and animals. You can read my article for Spirituality & Health on animism here.

​

Most people seek my help when they find themselves at a crossroads or turning point. My consults offer clarity and guidance on next steps. My expertise is to guide you on a journey toward deeper self-awareness, authentic power and inner peace.  Read testimonials and book a reading here. 

​

As a woman navigating her middle years, I have been in rich conversation with other women for over two decades on the wisdom and spiritual lessons of our Autumn years.  I will be focusing primarily on teaching and guiding other menopausal women through this initiatory journey in 2023.

I thank and acknowledge the incredible gift it is to live and work on the traditional homelands of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations.
