Hi, I'm Singithi!
I’m an astrologer and therapeutic arts practitioner with a passion for helping people gain deeper insight into their lives through the symbolic languages of both art and astrology.
I hold a BFA in Drawing and Painting, along with 7 years of experience as an art educator. I’ve studied at the Canadian Institute of Art Therapy, and am currently working towards my Masters in Art Therapy.
Additionally, I have 10+ years of astrological study, spanning modern, Medieval, Hellenistic, and Vedic astrology, all of which have been applied in my consultations since 2023. I’ve had the pleasure of serving as the manager of my city’s Astrology Meetup, where I help organize gatherings for people interested in learning, sharing, and discussing astrology together.
A tumultuous season in my own life revealed to me how astrology can be more than a source of philosophical curiosity—it can also offer solace, helping us weave coherent stories from what might otherwise feel like chaos. Thus, was born Bright Shadow Astrology, named in reference to the Sun-Pluto opposition in my own natal chart.
Founded in 2026, during a particularly turbulent time in the world, Bright Shadow Studio reflects my belief that both light and shadow are essential parts of our growth. Through the combined practices of art and astrology, I aim to help people explore, understand, and integrate both the bright and dark elements of their lives.
Style
My readings blend the psychological depth of archetypal astrology with the ancient techniques and philosophy of the Hellenistic tradition — offering each client a reading that is both personally precise and meaningfully grounded.
Technique
I work with the tropical zodiac and use whole sign houses as my primary house system, though I’ll adapt my approach when the chart calls for it.
Philosophy
In every consultation, I take a client-centred approach — one that encourages you to explore your own thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a space that is supportive, honest, and free of judgement.
I was in art school in 2011 when I first came to the study of astrology with the eyes of a skeptic, though burning with more raw curiosity than I’d like to have admitted at the time. What I discovered was an ancient system of understanding the human spirit, one of profound beauty. A decade later, a particularly turbulent season in my own life revealed to me how astrology can be more than a source of philosophical curiosity. It can also offer solace, helping us weave coherent stories from what might otherwise feel like chaos.
I grew up in an emotionally turbulent household, rife with domestic violence and emotional neglect, an experience that molded me into a person hell bent on pursuing safety and security, at the cost of my own wellbeing. At my Saturn Return, I found myself feverishly ploughing away in a successful but unaligned career, struggling with burnout, going through the motions in an unfulfilling relationship, wrestling with memories of the past, and longing for a future I could take pride in. Then, the year 2022 brought a series of eclipses to my lights, and Saturn transit to my Ascendant, and helped catalyze changes that left me gasping for air. I left a job, ended a relationship, and acted as a caretaker to an ailing family member. In the wake of the devastation, I asked myself “what does it all mean?”.
In a life with so much vacancy, I set about deepening my spiritual practices. Astrology became a constant companion at this time, helping me reframe my experiences and remember the person I always knew I was. Knowing what I know about relocation astrology, I started to contemplate moving to a city I have always been drawn to, and just so happened to be on my Venus IC line. I noticed that the coming year would included some compelling transits, including a transit of a Venus retrograde over my ascendant, and I decided to take a risk to make the move that I felt I needed.
Simultaneously, a renewed practice of putting brush to canvas and paper to pen helped me to re-center myself, build confidence, and make the self-reflective process fun! Within the first week of living in my new apartment, I discovered a weekly pub draw in an artist cafe down the street from me, and felt myself slowly come back to life.
Within a few short years I had built a new home for myself, found community, fell in love with and started a new relationship with someone I had a genuine connection with, reinvigorated my artistic practice, and set on a new career trajectory.
It's my hope that the wisdom and experiences I have gained can be of service to you as they have been to me!
