What sets us apart?

  • We honor the authentic YOU. Astrology isn’t a one-size-fits-all map, it’s a deeply personal mirror that reflects your unique gifts, lessons, and patterns. No two charts, no two journeys, and no two souls are the same.

  • We believe astrology is a tool for peeling back the layers and uncovering the authentic self beneath conditioning, fear, and external expectations. Our work is about helping people step into that truth, unapologetically and courageously.

  • Astrology shines a light on what is often hidden, bringing unconscious patterns into consciousness. We hold space for clients to face both their shadows and their strengths with compassion. Truth gives you the power to make conscious decisions and create meaningful change.

  • Love is the core of everything we do. AMO means “to love,” and our approach is rooted in compassion, acceptance, & encouragement. Through our work, we help others learn to love themselves, recognize their innate worth, and embody the truth that they are already enough.

Curious about the powerful world of astrology and alchemy? Here are some unique ways I can help!

Testimonials

  • I have worked with Amanda since 2020 and over the years my readings with her have helped deepen my understanding of both myself and astrology in general. Our first session together was during a very turbulent time in my life, and Amanda was able to help make sense of all the chaos in a way that felt both accessible, validating and invigorating. Amanda was the first person to communicate the power that she saw in my chart (and thus in myself) and helped give me the tools to learn how to access that power myself. If you are interested in astrology and self development in general, I couldn’t recommend AMO Alchemy enough!

  • Amanda was amazing to work with. I have had awareness of astrology for many years but no specific or deeper understanding of how it impacts me/my life. Amanda had this way of explaining and teaching as she was doing my reading that led to one ‘aha’ moment after another as she put my natal chart into the context of my life’s journey. I often find myself asking, “How might what’s going on in the sky right now be affecting the way I’m feeling today/this week, etc?” Using this lens has really helped me to be present and curious rather than frantic in fear and frustration. This benefit has been priceless for me because it has literally impacted my quality of life. I now understand that astrology and understanding our natal chart can be invaluable tools on the journey to live life fully, with awareness of who we are and the gifts and challenges with which we come into the world. Amanda’s very practical application of astrology to daily life and the warmth and ease with which she shares it serves as another powerful guide on Life’s Journey - and that is something I think everyone can benefit from. You will not be disappointed!! Working with AMO is like finding a treasure map to the gold you have been carrying all along and just didn’t know it.

  • Working with Amanda was a super cool experience! Like no other astrology reading I’ve had, she made it so clear how the chart actually worked and explained in detail the orientation of everything and what it all meant. I’ve had several astrology readings in my time, and it always overwhelmed me and I didn’t “really” understand it all. Amanda has a very clear and detailed way of communicating the chart and what it means for you. I can’t wait to get a follow up reading to go even deeper!

  • I have known Amanda as a teacher, guide and friend. So when I say, to step into her world, you can expect to have fun. As an Astrology teacher, she is a Superpower. Masterfully teaching you the language of astrology, the spirit/energy of the signs, houses, planets, aspects and more, always challenging you to learn and want more. To have your Natal Chart Reading with Amanda is a magical guided tour of you. With her supportive, honest accuracy Amanda shows you answers, gives you validation and dreams.

  • Amanda has a unique gift of being an intuitive astrologer as well a great guide in my journey. She provided excellent information into me and my patterns, how they appeared before and why they might appear again. I have found her readings to be so useful in helping me to gain insight into my life lessons and ways that I choose to take information in.

  • I loved being in Amanda’s presence during my natal chart reading. I felt held, expertly guided, and engaged. She listened to my questions and was engaged and warm throughout the process. After every session with Amanda I have felt a greater sense of clarity and excitement as I move into a new phase of my life. Working with Amanda feels grounding, inspiring, and real. I recommend Amanda because of her engagement with me during session and her engagement with her craft. She is a wonderfully knowledgeable, in tune, vibrant, and passionate astrologer. I would encourage someone to come with curiosities of their own. Amanda is great at engaging questions along with offering knowledge and interpretation. In my experience, she meets you where you are.

  • I started my journey of self-discovery with Amanda as my Mentor from Debra Silverman Astrology. When I met Amanda, I was so afraid of myself! She intuitively knew this (who knew, I am a psychic medium, Amanda knew). Amanda has a compassionate and patient teaching style that made me feel comfortable in class. I have taken so many classes with Amanda, I don't know where to start. Amanda is a very spiritual soul and has an intuitive way of sending you in the right direction of self-discovery. Every time I am in her classes, I learn something new about myself, astrology or of how to be in service to others. She is pure Magic and always serving as her higher self!

  • Amanda is incredibly professional and a pleasure to work with. I always feel safe and supported in her care, thanks to her trustworthy and compassionate approach. She breaks down my chart in a way that’s easy to follow, making astrology both accessible and empowering.

    — Courtney, 55, California

  • In 2020, my first time ever studying astrology, at the age of 75yrs old, I was very fortunate to find a talented, knowledgeable, generous teacher and mentor like Astrologer Amanda Oakson. Amanda created and continues to create in her classes (sign up every chance I get) an open forum where I feel and I believe the rest of the class members feel free to share ideas and new discoveries enabling the emergence of evolutionary growth. Amanda brings the Quantum into reality.
