About Stars & Signs
Who’s behind Stars & Signs?
Curiosity runs deep in our family.
We're an intuitive mother-daughter duo, driven by a fascination with life's mysteries – the human psyche, relationships, and what the future might hold.
From this shared curiosity, we launched Stars & Signs in February 2021, offering Astrology and Tarot consultations, and, in 2023, Lenormand, too.
A rebellious, eclectic Aquarian streak runs through generations of women in our family, so it’s no surprise we’re drawn to the mysterious and the misunderstood.
Our aim is to empower people to better understand themselves and the world around them, through Astrology, Tarot, and Lenormand — the esoteric bridges that connect us to the universe.
Yours is a cosmic story to be told, and we’re here to help you read it.
Stars & Signs: Where the mysteries of the universe meet the magic within You.
Hi, I’m Karen!
Astrologer | Intuitive Tarot Advisor | Lenormand Reader
As a lifelong student of esoteric sciences and psychology, I have a passion for exploring why we do what we do.
I really enjoy helping people answer some of life’s trickiest questions and exploring creative ways of fulfilling our purpose while navigating the ‘Human Experience’.
I’ve always loved Astrology and Tarot: I remember buying Old Moore’s Almanac as a youngster and bought my first Astrology book when I was around 14. My naturally intuitive, slightly eccentric Mum gave me my first Tarot deck at 15.
I even planned my children by their birth Signs, which definitely shines through in their individual personalities (my proud, family-orientated Leo son and my feisty, passionate Aries daughter).
Since 2018, I’ve been deepening my knowledge in Tarot and Astrology, initially studying with Debra Silverman Astrology to become a Graduate Astrologer, and Biddy Tarot to become a Certified Intuitive Tarot Advisor.
Since then, I’ve changed my practice to traditional, Hellenistic Astrology for its clearer chart delineation and highly accurate interpretations, and studied under Kelly Surtees.
I’ve also added Lenormand to my studies, completing Emily Rose Divination courses and Layla, The Lenormand Reader certification.
I don’t consider myself to be psychic or a medium – I’m an interpreter, advisor, and guide who’s empathetic, sensitive, and intuitive with an understanding of psychology combined with extensive training in Astrology, Tarot, and now, Lenormand, too.
As an Advisor, I’m direct but gentle, and always aim to give you practical, grounded guidance infused with wisdom.
I’m also a bookworm who’s partial to a G&T (or two), and a loving wife, mother, Glam-ma and puppy owner.
You’ll find me by the beach on the South Coast of the UK, often in my tranquil cabin (lovingly named Serendipity), or gazing at the stars and reading my cards.
Sun sign - Pisces
Moon sign - Libra
Rising sign (aka Ascendant) - Gemini
As a Piscean, I definitely ‘show up’ as the soft, slightly dreamy, and romantic Water sign I am, and empathy comes naturally to me. Pisceans are said to be a combination of all the Star Signs, so they have an understanding of other personalities.
My Libra Moon, added to that Pisces energy, means that relationships are highlighted on a deeply emotional level. I love working with others, helping them to work through their life journeys to find balance, inner calm and happiness.
My fun Gemini Rising Sign is where I find my voice; I love to chat, and how I use words is important to me whether I’m writing, working face to face or interacting online. Our Rising Sign is like our operating system – for me, that’s rooted in communication and studying the subjects I love.
Unlocking my ‘Super Three’ was a revelation to me. Knowing I was a Pisces was all well and good, but why wasn’t I ‘vague and silent’ like the books said I should be?
My ‘aha’ moment came with the discovery of my Libra Moon and Gemini Rising (both Air signs), showing my need to communicate, learn, and share my knowledge, as well as connect with others.
… and I’m Tassia!
Intuitive Tarot Advisor | Writer | Marketing guru | Crystal connoisseur
I’ve been fascinated by all things esoteric and witchy for over 20 years, dabbling in Wicca in my teens and collecting crystals and Tarot decks along the way.
Like my Mum, Tarot’s been a cornerstone of my life, guiding me through tough times and helping me understand exactly what I’m feeling, whenever I needed a helping hand.
For me, Tarot is a sort of psychology ‒ intuition is one of the best advisors in our world, and Tarot is a tool for tapping into it.
Although we’re very close, my Tarot style is different from Mum’s ‒ for me, your energy and interpretations are just as important as mine.
I’ve been told I have ‘psychic’ tendencies ‒ while that’s not a word I would use to describe it, I do rely on my intuition more than logic, when it comes to Tarot.
I’ll often be found at witchy events, with a mini Tarot deck in my handbag (for emergencies!), hovering like a magpie at crystal stands, or at home in Bath, writing at my desk as my lovely hubby brings keeps me topped up with tea and my cat, Buffy, by my side.
Sun sign: Aries
Moon sign: Virgo
Rising sign (Ascendant): Aquarius
In some ways, I’m a classic Aries Sun ‒ the initiator, with a fiery temper, and always willing to stand up and fight!
But my Fire side is softened by my Virgo Moon ‒ always in service to others, happy to help (even if it means I forget about myself), and obsessed with lists.
Then my weird and wonderful, eclectic and eccentric side bursts through with my Aquarius Rising. Words are my everything, I’m slightly off-planet, and I always side with the underdog ‒ feminist, activist, ally, snowflake ‒ whatever labels you’ve got, I’ll take!
While I am, by no means, an Astrologer, I have picked up a few basics from my (long) chats with Mum. For the longest time, I felt like I was nowhere near powerful enough or enough of a leader to be an Aries Sun.
But when Astrology came into our lives, it all made sense. I have so much Earth in my Chart (a Grand Trine in Earth, even), that it makes sense some of that Fire would be extinguished.
I’m learning to lean more into my fiery Aries and bizarre Aquarius sides, the parts of myself I would usually try to quiet. And as I’m embracing them more, I can honestly say that my life is going exactly where I want it to.
So if you’re ever wondering whether Astrology is right for you, get in touch and we’ll have a chat ‒ any excuse to hype up my Mum!
