An introduction…

Hi! I’m Christin Johnson, and I’m formally introducing the facet of my “self” that is the professional Astrologer and Aesthetic Consultant.

After a traditional education and decade+ long career in HR, I found myself at a crossroads of identity. I’d just welcomed a sweet baby girl, settled into managing a new home and full-time wife lifestyle with my band playing, business traveling husband, and developed an independent HR consultancy. I was also addicted to my social life (only an issue when your hermity Taurus essence battles your Sagittarius rising!).

Attempting to balance such incredibly rewarding, yet competing areas of life forced me down a path of finding my deepest inner voice - one that I had been quieting with un-serving habits for a while. It was time to listen to that little ping inside, acknowledging that perhaps I “should” be doing life a certain way, but I REALLY have these other desires… tapping into that voice and deciphering my soul path has been so thrilling.

Choosing the “should” path from an early age, and either not living up to the standard and feeling so terrible about myself, or achieving and still not feeling satisfied - this was a cycle I needed to look closely at - and eventually choose to break.

I decided to explore an old passion more seriously and signed up for a course in astrology, purchased dozens of astrology books, and got myself a doozy of a knee injury so I could really sit still and focus (phew…those Saturn driven lessons hit HARD!). Learning the language of the stars in an effort to connect the inner experience to my external life choices finally “clicked” and opened an entirely new, more fulfilling set of options and perspectives.

Around the same time, I began integrating “Thought Work,” a form of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). By aligning my spiritual “knowing” with a more managed mind, I was able to be truly intentional, curating new thoughts, thus creating different results in my life. This practice has been the key to unlocking a remarkably enhanced sense of joy, peace, and confidence.

As I practiced mastering my own mind, I realized that so many ways I spent my time were out of duty and not desire. Sure, it’s important to respect your commitments and act from a place of kindness and loving service, but it just doesn’t make sense to structure your entire life around obligations (IMO!).

So I let that little ping sing a bit louder. I’m still in awe of the sublime simplicity I heard once I chose to actively listen, and align with the light shone by Venus in my chart. I’ve been passionately educating myself and practicing beauty for almost two decades. Rarely does a day go by when I’m not learning or being asked about something aesthetic related. It’s such second nature to me that I assumed everyone must know what I do (turns out: not true, and yes, I can now identify imposter syndrome symptoms within a natal chart!).

Since I’ve always spoken in vibes, auras, and emotional connections, it’s like I’ve been a professional friend my entire life. One you’d ask for an honest outfit opinion from. In this current point of evolution, I trust the root of this natural calling is to help others accept the challenges of life, and confidently take steps towards achieving their dreams. Sometimes that also entails an outer makeover to match the inside one ;)

Sharing my energy, astrological interpretations, and beauty advice allows me to honor that core need of effectively helping others (hello Capricorn Moon aspected to Uranus!). I am thrilled to use my gifts and knowledge through Astrotiq - this means of self expression allows me to support so many people in finding relief from suffering, and mastery of their life’s experiences and trajectory.
