Mariola Rosario (she/her) is an artist, astrologer, cartomancer, teacher, photographer, independent researcher and flâneuse from Borikén, the land known as Puerto Rico. She is currently living and experiencing our global collapse between the shores of Paris, France, Puerto Rico and the so-called United States.
Mariola loves collaborating with artists, intuitives, freaks, ghosts, old, new & curious souls, students, teachers, organizers, activists, ancestors, flowers, plants, animals, candles, tarot, planets and beyond. She has always found herself somewhere between the teacher-student axis and would like to continue to find alternative and more compassionate routes towards inclusive pedagogy and revolutionary, anti-extractive modes of learning and co-creating spaces of magical and material mutual aid.
Her interests are cross-disciplinary, from literary and contemporary visual culture to critical theory, mythology, languages, photography and autobiography. Her current principal artistic expression is the love language of Astrology and the empowering conversations that arise from it. With her Astrology journey, Mariola found that the deeper she dove into this contemplative work, the more the language began to reveal itself as an Artistic Practice: a dialogue, a dance, a conversation between us, here on Planet Earth, and the divine Cosmos that houses all the impossible mysteries of the Universe. Mariola follows Hellenistic traditions of Astrology, spanning from the 2nd Century BCE to the 16th Century. She infuses these ancient techniques with her unique intuitive guidance as well as her multifaceted background in the arts, academia and activistvism.
Mariola’s books are open for one-on-one astrology and Tarot consultations in English and Spanish. She continues to study Astrology every day. Some of the teachers and lineages of thought that have informed and inspired her: Britten LaRue, Luz Peuscovich, Andrea Lobo, Renee Stills, Chani Nicholas, Michael J Morris, ET Shipley, Alice Sparkly Kat, Adam Sommer, and always Chris Brennan and the incomparable Demetra George (amongst many others).
