About Julie



“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs, ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go do that. Because what the world needs are people who have come alive.” – Harold Whitman



My journey has been a path of self-discovery, initiation and following my passions of Astrology, Dreamwork and Energy Medicine. I'm inspired by the night sky and the symmetry within nature, affirming in its complexity and beauty the intelligent and unifying design unfolding in all living things. I have always believed in providence and the guidance of unseen forces that have shaped my life.  In 1998, I was initiated into Kriya Yoga with the Self-Realisation Fellowship, founded by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1920.

“You must not let your life run in the ordinary way; do something that nobody else has done, something that will dazzle the world. Show that God’s creative principle works in you.”
— Paramahansa Yogananda


Finding my vocation 

Chiron Return

Turning 50 was a threshold crossing, awakening the spirit of the 'Wounded Healer', and set me on a path that would feed the desires of my Soul and satisfy the 'guiding spirit' who has been with me since birth. It was a time when I was freed up to attend to my vocation and it seemed to be written in the stars! Obtaining certification in my passions of Astrology, Dreamwork and Energy Medicine got me in touch with the 'unlived' life and I began to feel fully alive!

Spiritual Pilgrimage - coming home

Uranus/Pluto - waxing square

Of special significance was my journey to Egypt. It was at the time of the Arab Spring uprising in 2012 and tourists were told to stay away. Nicki Scully and Normandi Ellis were guides to a small group of which I was fortunate to be part.  These wise women conducted initiations at many of the temples we attended at sunrise. Of particular remembrance was the Temple of Isis at Philae. The goddess Isis, wife of Osiris - god of the Underworld, is connected with the rites of the dead and skilled in the arts of medicine and magic. The ancient Egyptians were adept in understanding the Soul’s journey, the afterlife, and the power of the spoken word - Heka, created at the beginning of time and uttered all things into being. My life-long wish to visit Egypt came to pass and I knew that I had come home to the soul of Egypt, awakening deep memory within my body. 

 
 

Death and renewal 

Second Saturn Return / Pluto eighth house transit

In 2018, the shock of my sister dying and the loss of my two cats, pets who were my companions for 19 years, impacted me profoundly and I experienced an acute absence of life. It was as though the ground had opened up beneath me and Death, riding his black wild stallion, abducted me, pulling me down into the underworld. A journey from which I have gratefully returned. My understanding of death through loss and grief and what it means to be fully 'alive' took on a deeper significance and reinvigorated my purpose. It was during this time that I discovered Biofield Tuning as a healing modality, and I commenced my three-year apprenticeship training in Embodied Imagination® .

 
 

 Sharing my Gifts

In 2021, I facilitated five dream groups (Dreaming our Way into Life; Restoring Value to our Dreams; The Power of the Image; Beyond Analysis: Embodying the Image and Electric Dreams Salon) for the C.G. Jung Society of Melbourne using the process of Embodied Imagination. It is deeply gratifying to be a guide for others as they experience the numinous power at the heart of images seeking embodiment.

All my offerings are designed to empower clients and strengthen their resilience. A shift in perception is key to greater flexibility and finding creative solutions. I’ll support you to get in touch with what inspires you and what makes you come alive! 

I’ll be a guide in the work

to get you in touch with the energies of life,

so you can live your best Life!
