Hey, I'm Buck

Scorpio Rising

I'm an astrologer, tarot reader, & artist living on the occupied lands of the Kalapuya, Clackamas, Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Bands of Chinook, Tualatin, Molalla, and many more tribes of this region (colonially known as Portland, OR).My experience of the world is informed by being queer, non-binary, trans, neurodivergent, disabled, large fat & a descendant of German, Bohemian, Scottish, Irish, & English settlers.I've been in love with astrology since I was a kid & more recently started studying tarot in 2018. I've been reading natal charts for community members since 2014 & have been doing tarot readings since I began my studies.I practice western tropical astrology with whole sign houses. I utilize Hellenistic & modern modalities, balancing historical and intuitive/embodied approaches.Consultations with me are collaborative, conversational, full of depth & warmth.

☆ Sliding Scale ☆

First and foremost, I prioritize sliding scale prices for BIPOC, especially queer/trans people of color.If you are white, but experience other forms of oppression (like being disabled, formerly incarcerated, etc.) that greatly inhibit your monetary resources, email me [email protected] and we can talk about it.When you reach out, please give me some information about what your financial situation is like so I can get a better picture of what’s going on for you/your budget.Questions to consider:
~ Do you have at least $1k in savings?
~ Do you take vacations/go on trips at least once a year or more?
~ Do you have a retirement account/investments that you could liquidate?
~ Will you inherit money from relatives or have you in the past?
~ Do you have a trust fund or receive financial support from relatives?
~Do you have anyone in your friend group/family/community that you could safely ask for money?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then my sliding scale is not for you.I want to make sure I can continue to offer mutual aid to those who truly need it the most (and reparative pricing for BIPOC) vs. people who would prefer to pay less for my offerings.

☆ Client Testimony ☆

"Discussing my chart with Buck was SO illuminating and informative. I felt met with openness, curiosity, and compassion as well being met in my level of knowledge and experience. Buck is thoughtful and knowledgeable and offered so much insight and perspective on my entry in my Saturn return. So much of what we discussed felt resonant and applicable to my life and so much of it is understanding we came to in collaboration. Highly recommend!!!~ b. 6.18.25


"My session with Buck was well beyond what I was expecting. Not only did they go deep without losing me (and I'm a beginner at all this), they did a great job thoroughly answering my questions as well as venturing off into other areas that I didn't even know I needed to hear but did! They were very sensitive about checking in and making sure the pacing was ok, and also really put me at ease with their warmth and caring nature. Their energy was infectious and I left wanting to learn more. I will definitely be following up with another appointment once I have absorbed the massive ground we covered in 90 minutes."~ Chris B. 7.17.25


"I got an astrology reading with Buck and it was really incredible! They're so knowledgeable and so skilled at communicating what they know in a way that's easy to understand. Buck also did a great job creating a safe container to talk about difficult, personal things with just enough humor and irreverence to keep me present.I came with some specific questions about a difficult placement in my birth chart. Buck spent a large portion of the reading addressing this specific question; but they also tied in elements of the rest of my chart to help me understand the full picture. Towards the end I got an overview of upcoming transits that might impact me and some tips for how to best work with that energy.While I really wanted Buck to tell me how to "fix" this difficult placement, they instead helped me see the gifts it provides and to come to a place of acceptance. I would have never asked for that but it's really what I needed. As an ultra private double Scorpio, I don't let just anybody peer into me and tell me about myself. I'm so glad to have done so with Buck because I'm a different and better person after this reading. I can already see the positive impact in my life."~ Wolf A. 8.6.25


"I was very impressed with how knowledgeable and detailed the information I received during my reading with Buck. My reading gave me a better understanding of why I have made several decisions in my life and confirmed who I am as a person. Additionally, it was very insightful and inspiring to what the future holds! I truly appreciated receiving the documents of our conversation, in addition to my chart. Hands-down, this is the best reading I have experienced!"~ T.W. 6.10.25
