In addition to extensive self-study, Diana McNiff (Founder of Threshold Astrology) has completed Astrology University’s Diploma Program.

Through this program, she has studied with some of the world’s most respected astrologers including Tony Howard, Safron Rossi, Demetra George, Kelly Surtees, Darby Costello, Lynn Bell, Mark Jones, Jessica Murray, Karen Hamaker-Zondag, Jason Holley and Steven Forrest.

Our practice is also deeply influenced by the teachings of Dane Rudhyar, Stephen Arroyo, Erin Sullivan, Bernadette Brady, Chani Nicholas and Chris Brennan.

We follow the International Society for Astrological Research Ethical Standards and Guidelines.

We offer something for everyone, no matter where you are on your journey.

We can work together once or through a package of sessions.

A single reading provides a deep dive into your chart and includes a recording of the session, which may be perfect for folks who like to process over time on their own. You can always schedule a follow up at a later time.

For a guided and expanded navigation of your chart, we offer packages that focus on specific topics and unlock the depth and dynamism of your chart.

We also offer events and workshops including, custom mini-readings for parties and events of all sizes, cosmic book club guide (your group reads an accessible astro-book — such as Chani Nicholas’ “You Were Born for This” — and I join your gathering to help you explore at a deeper level), and workshop formats that are a great way to bring exciting new content to your wellness center, corporate retreat or gathering.

Contact us to discuss your specific needs.

Don’t worry, we don’t need ALL the details! To accurately calculate your birth chart we just need the date, time and location of your birth.

If possible, it’s always best to reference an official document (like a birth certificate) to confirm the exact time. While it may be tempting to just text your parents, it’s best to go the extra mile this time and check the data. Speaking as someone who has given birth — the birthing parent has a lot of other things on their mind ;)

If your birth certificate doesn’t include an exact time — you’re not out of luck yet! You may have a “short form” version. You can try requesting a “long form” certificate from the vital statistics office in your city of birth, or the hospital where you were born.

If you can’t get your hands on an official document, it’s time to do some deeper sleuthing. The next best option is a birth announcement, baby book or other written source — even an heirloom family religious text may have data written into the front cover.

If none of these work out, a time from your parents or family members memory can work. The more detail you can get to confirm the time the better (i.e. “it was the middle of the night” confirms a 1:00 AM vs 1:00 PM time whereas “the doctor made it to the post office before it closed for the day” can confirm a 3:30 PM vs. 3:30 AM time)

If we really can’t pin down a time, don’t fret — there is still plenty of insight available. Feel free to contact us to learn more if you have any questions.

Imagine you are standing at the edge of a doorway. You have the power to choose if and how you proceed. Our offerings are meant to guide you across whatever threshold lies ahead.

Take a peek: Our mini session is a perfect introduction to your birth chart. Includes simple overview to orient you with your chart and a look at your “Big Three “ — the critical trifecta that describes your purpose (Sun), your emotional landscape & needs (Moon) and how you experience the world (Rising Sign).

Take a step: A full natal chart reading can be a stand-alone offering, or a foundation for deeper exploration with a focused session or discounted package.

Take the leap: If you have already experienced a full natal chart reading and are ready to dive deeper, a general or focused follow up (cosmic weather, or special focus) is a great place to explore. We also offer discounted rates on session packages.

We are here to support you at whatever stage of your journey you find yourself.

Still not sure? Contact us and we can figure it out together.

Each session is personalized and based in our philosophy of mutual dialogue and respect. You provide basic information in your intake form, and we come prepared with a thoughtful & practical translation of your chart.

We will share our insights in a dialogue format, allowing us to work together to unearth the unique complexity of your individual chart.

Sessions range from 30-90 minutes depending on the offering you choose. They are conducted virtually. You will be provided with a copy of the session recording, so you can be present in the experience with no worries about missing any of the delicious detail.

This requirement aligns with our commitment to provide practical, personalized and professional astrological resources.

Diving into timing (“cosmic weather”) and other focus areas requires a strong foundational knowledge of an individual’s chart (for both the astrologer and the client). Any astrological work done without this foundation is untethered from its essential roots.

We would never provide an astrological consultation without thorough reference to the individual’s chart. Our requirement of an initial chart reading before moving into deeper territory reflects the value of the meaningful investment being made from both our side, and yours.

If you’re already amped to dig deep, check out our discounted rates available for combined session packages.

If you are located in or around Northern NJ — or would like to bring us on site to your event — contact us for in-person options.

Your chart is a perfect blue-print for your life potential. With that in mind, all the questions are fair game. The answers are infinite.

This is the beauty of astrology. It is a deeply personalized resource for self-discovery that connects our individual purpose to the world we are born into.

This is where it gets juicy. You are already living your chart every day. You carry the quality of cosmic time at your moment of birth. It is an always-accessible resource for your growth and unfolding.

The purpose of professional astrological exploration is to deepen your awareness of the connections between your individuality and the world around you.

We are committed to providing a practical translation of the wisdom within your birth chart so you can harness that knowledge to better navigate your daily life.

Each astrological lineage has its own perspective on this age-old question.

In our practice, we believe that each person carries the quality of cosmic time from the moment and place of their birth. Rather than viewing this as a path (or fate) set in stone, we see the chart as an always-accessible resource for your ongoing growth and unfolding.

With that perspective in mind, we see each person as a co-creative force within the cosmos. While we each have unique potential, we are not tied to a singular fate.

The beauty of being human is our freedom to make choices on every step of our journey. Astrology at its best is a tool to identify your core essence, in order to ground yourself in your personal authority, autonomy and integrity.

They vary! We aim provide a variety of options for all budgets. These reflect the value of the meaningful investment being made from both our side, and yours.

If none of the options listed in our offerings work for you, please contact us so we can try to better meet our community’s needs.

The gift of astrological exploration is thoughtful, meaningful and its impact lasts far beyond the session itself.

We offer both full chart reading and mini session gift certificates.

Fees are due at booking and are nonrefundable, but can be rescheduled online up to 48 hours prior to your appointment.

We know that life throws us curve balls when we least expect it, so if you absolutely need to reschedule within 48 hours of your session, please contact us directly.

We maintain strict confidentiality regarding all information given in private sessions, except in situations where silence would be grievously harmful to a client or to another person, per the ISAR Ethical Standards.

We’re so glad you asked! It represents the heart and soul of our practice, so much so that we wrote a whole homage to our logo at our launch. Check it out here.
