I've booked a year ahead reading with Charm for a few years now and I always enjoy our sessions together. She is so knowledgeable about the different transits and how they might impact the individual and is also very gentle and easy to talk to. A lot of her predictions have come true, and many of her reflections and musings always resonate. I always recommend her when my friends look for astrologers.

I did a *Year Ahead Review*. Charm was so respectful of my own background in Astrology; what I most appreciated about her approach is that we were able to just get into it. The whole process I felt taken care of and seen. Charm was able to answer my questions clearly and concisely. The session is something I would recommend for anyone curious about needing a framework for making decisions moving forward. Be as clear as you can with your initial questions.
And this wasn't all... I had followup questions which Charm obliged with rich and expansive resources. My experience went beyond my expectations and I appreciate Charm was able to give some guidance on what I should be paying attention to with timelines.
Charm is the real deal. Professional and engaging, I would absolutely recommend! I will definitely be making Charm a part of my annual life review.

I'm so glad I went to Charm to get a professional birth chart reading for the first time! Not only was she super kind and affirming, she helped explain placements in my chart I had previously found confusing in an accessible and clear way. I learned so much in our time together, which helped deepen my understanding of astrology and of my life. Charm clearly puts a lot of care into her work, and I look forward to booking time with her again in the future!
Cara, Nov. 2023
I took the half-a-year ahead reading with Charm which was excellent, detailed and super helpful. She really honed in on answering my question on timing and explained through the transits why I was feeling restless. Seeing the chart and the houses in front of me as a visual was especially helpful. This reading helped to ease my anxiety and follow my gut instincts on what I needed to do moving forward. Really liked the option of recording so I can take notes on where I'm at six months from now. Would definitely do another reading in the future. Thanks so much for the experience! :)
kr, Jul. 2023
As someone who did not really understand astrology Charm did a really good job of explaining everything to me and how and what each sign in each of the houses mean. She touched on some things that I have been thinking about doing and let me know wether or not now is a good time to work on these projects I have been thinking about.
MV, Jun. 2023 // @megwelltravelled
I returned to Charm for a second reading after my first Birthday Reading in 2022. This year I received a Birth Chart Reading and a Year Ahead reading. I have a particular interest in the annual profections technique, and Charm helped me to understand what themes can come into play for the upcoming year. Our conversation had a good flow and I felt very comfortable sharing past, present, and future details. The session flew by!
CM, Sept. 2023
My locational astrology session with Charm was illuminating, supportive, and a little bit mind blowing in the best possible way. I am so impressed not only by Charm’s deep knowledge of this niche area of astrology, but her ability to present it in a form that is thoughtful, accessible, practical, and actionable. She was understanding of and sensitive to my lived experience as someone with chronic illness, which meant so much to me; her background in care professions shines clearly through her work with astrology. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Charm and look forward to more readings with her. Thank you Charm! xo
Laura, C., Apr. 2023
My reading with Charm was incredible. She is an insightful and thoughtful astrologer and brought such a wealth of knowledge and creativity to my birth chart reading! She educated me about the details of my chart throughout and also reminded me of the many expansive and magical ways to understand the planets and how to work with them in my own life. Embodiment was a key theme, as well as autonomy. I felt both comforted and empowered by our beautiful conversation.
Monica, writer, Oct. 2022
Amazing! I cannot express how on point and how right everything felt. My partner had gifted me an astrology reading some time ago, and at the time, the timing didn't feel right. Fast forward to recently, when something told me I should do it. I am so glad I did. In a time with so much uncertainty, it felt great to get some clarity and answers. I shared my reading with my partner, and she immediately booked a reading. Thank you, Charm. You are a gift and a true blessing to this world.
Edward, Oct. 2022
I received a wonderful and illuminating locational astrology reading from Charm! I'm in the process of thinking through where I want to live next, and wrapped up in that are a range of different types of considerations (my career, livability for partner, proximity to family, healthcare access, etc.). One of the things that was so useful about working with Charm was that her encouraging and open approach helped me get out of the same thought cycles I get stuck in when thinking through the possibilities, and she ultimately helped me consider the same questions through an entirely new lens. What was particularly special about the introduction of a new vantage point was the way she was able to cultivate a dialogue that invited me to be reflective and open in the moment with her; she was also able to ask constructive questions that nudged past any preconceived notions or worries I had about different aspects of the relocated charts (like a new house for my 5th house stellium, for ex.), to help me think more deeply about myself and where I see my life unfolding next. Throughout the reading, she was careful to make sure I was following the different layers of insight she provided, and was very conscientious about making sure there was space for questions. She was also able to cover an incredible depth of information in a relatively short window and I came away feeling like I'd learned a lot about locational astrology in addition to gaining insights about myself. Would definitely recommend working with Charm if you get the chance :)
L, Aug. 2022
Charm's website caught my eye because of how well-researched and knowledgeable she seems, and I was right. She brings all that to the table and more, complete with tenderness and kindness. I had my first ever birth chart reading with her and learnt so much about myself! Thank you for your patience with my questions, and I look forward to the next one!
Raey A., artist & filmmaker, Aug. 2022 // @thatfighterjet
Charm went above and beyond the expectations for our monthly session readings. She came in prepared with thoughtful reflections about what themes would be prevalent for me throughout the month ahead. She asked me questions to make sure what she was sharing resonated with my experience. Her calm presence and clear articulation of what each transit meant was incredibly reassuring and supportive during each consultation. I loved the opportunity to use these regular touchpoints as a tool to track how I was moving through significant themes during this pivotal moment in my life. I left each session feeling hopeful and ready for the work ahead. I can't express how grateful I am to have stumbled upon Charm this year.
jessica, Jul. 2022
I really appreciated Charm's knowledge and detailed discussion of my chart. It was a perfect reading for my birthday to figure what my upcoming year might look like. A lot of things we discussed hit close to home and have already been on my radar. Thank you so much!
Stephanie, Jun. 2022
Charm gave a beautifully thorough and insightful birth chart reading and provided and invaluable experience. Charm's reading was incredibly applicable and has helped to bring clarity and a new perspective of oneself. Thank you, Charm!!
Clare D, Sept. 2022
As a developing astrologer, I found my year ahead reading with Charm to be precise and abundant with new perspectives and connections. If you want to become a better astrologer, get readings by astrologers you want to learn from! Charm is able to channel her knowledge in an extremely accessible and empathetic way leaving you feeling great clarity. I will definitely be a returning client!
Rachel Ko, Jun. 2022
Charm is so talented! I got the birth chart and year ahead reading right before my birthday and... holy crap, this was such a powerful reading. I was at a crossroads with next career steps, and full of uncertainty. Charm really helped me understand this dilemma amidst the current transits and my natal chart, and helped me think about the big picture in the next year. The next week I received some huge news, putting the whole reading into perspective. The reading was fluid and intuitive, with moments where I was able to ask questions since I'm a beginner to astrology. Charm also had a followup email with my chart and handouts. I highly recommend getting the birth chart and year ahead reading! Thank you so much, Charm!
TR, May 2022
I booked a birthday and tarot reading for my best friend's birthday. Charm met with us via Zoom and did a great job of giving a quick review of charts and signs before preceeding with the reading. She asked questions and gave great insights into what the next year means for my best friend. Many of the things she noted on the chart were true. We liked that instead of fortune telling, Charm was more about giving more active information and advice. More actionable readings that could be put into actual things my friend can do. She was super personable and we both want to have readings again in the future.
Lia, Apr. 2022 // Wandering Ram Handmade Jewelry
My partner and I worked with Charm on a recent exploration of possible moves for us. Although we are both knowledgeable astrology practitioners, this was our first experience with astrocartography. We not only gained insight over our particular situation but learned some key fundamentals about this branch of astrology as well from Charm's thoughtful explanations!
Yanyi, Apr. 2022
Charm is a wonderfully talented human. I have had the pleasure of working with her a few times now. The sessions are so incredibly in depth and detailed. And she really takes the time to explain everything so it’s translatable. With so much knowledge and passion for her craft, Charm delivers with care and compassion. And I feel so very lucky to have this type of energy in my life.
Courtney, Mar. 2022
I had my first astrology session with Charm yesterday and have been thinking about it ever since! She talked me through my chart in a way that helped me see it clearer but also strengthened my understanding of astrology as a whole. Her insight and observations were spot on and I left the session with a lot to think about in regards to what parts of myself have been trying to come out but needed more attention and gentleness. Her astrological knowledge is really beautiful to witness and made me excited to learn more as well. I’m looking forward to when I can reconnect with her to get a deep sense of the cycles within my chart.
Mel Hagos, Feb. 2022
I try to see Charm for a reading 1-2 times a year. Each time I see her I feel reborn, re-set, and rejuvenated. Her insight and ability to decipher my chart and personality is unprecedented. I have sent numerous people her way who have felt the same. Don't sleep on a reading with Charm!!!
Chelsey Lichtman, Jan. 2022
I appreciate so much Charm's approach to astrology. I did a year ahead reading with her and I was blown away by the session. I felt like I understand more how the planets relate to each other in my chart because of how clearly she explains things. So thankful for her wisdom!
Inna, Jan. 2022
I had a lovely one-hour session with Charm about my birth chart. It was a comfortable and engaging session. Charm was knowledgeable and a pleasure to speak with. I learned a lot and loved the materials that I was able to keep to refer back to later!
E, Jan. 2022
My two favorite parts of my year ahead astro reading with Charm were 1, feeling seen, and 2, feeling encouraged to grow without rush or pressure to grow. Charm's interpretations of my transits made a lot of sense and were in-line with what I perceived of them, but having that outsider's point-of-view validated my experience. I learned a few important things too. It was a wholeheartedly good experience, and I'd recommend this to others who want to align themselves with the planets.
nancy lili g., Oct. 2021
Charm is pure light! So knowledgeable, so warm, so welcoming, she recreates the perfect environment for learning, exploration and receiving. I did birth chart reading and had chills the whole time. Even when something felt resistant, or not like me, magically Charm would pose a question that exposed connection and curiosity for me. Furthermore, her method of sharing information is so helpful, I actually feel empowered to read and uncover more on my own in a way that makes sense! Do not hesitate to work with Charm, I assure you, you will be glad you did!
Monique, Sept. 2021
I love working with Charm! She is generous, warm, knowledgeable -- it's easy to be vulnerable with her. While reading my chart and looking at the year ahead, she noted an issue that I wasn't familiar with and wasn't currently appearing in my life -- and funnily enough, the issue actually came up the week after our reading! Working with her is like having someone hold up a lantern on a dark path. Miraming salamat, Charm!!
Amanda L. Andrei, playwright, Jun. 2021 // IG @theamandalandrei // Twt @amandalandrei
Charm has a warmth and glow that creates a safe an inviting place to ask questions to provide guidance and insight to any of your life questions. In my reading Charm made space for me to explore the questions that I had and created opportunities for me to explore things more deeply. I appreciated the kindness and directness of this reading. I would highly recommend Charm's services to all of my friends and family seeking guidance and insight around any life questions.
TJM, May 2021
This was my first ever astrology reading and wow was it a great experience!! I had a birthday reading which consisted of Charm going through my chart and telling me what was in store for my year ahead. Charm was so friendly and made it easy to talk to. The things I learned from the session have given me things to reflect on, which I appreciate. I will definitely be making this a yearly reading. A birthday gift to myself. Thanks, Charm!
Sara A, May 2021
I had my first tarot reading with Charm and it was wonderful. I found Charm's reading insightful and powerful. Our conversation helped me understand my past, present, and future through a new perspective. I would definitely recommend booking a reading if you are looking for perspective and instrospection. Thank you, Charm!
Mario, May 2021
I had a birth chart reading. Charm was so wonderful! I loved her demeanor - she made the session feel very comfortable. The insights she gave me were helpful, new, and insightful. I had not looked at my chart that way before, and she helped me think more about who I am and why I react to certain situations the way I do. I can't wait to have a forecasting done with Charm soon!
Amy, May 2021
I got a birth chart + year ahead reading with Charm and have followed up with month ahead readings every month for the past little while (and will continue to!). Charm is an amazing listener and wonderful communicator. She has such a lovely and inviting energy and makes me feel comfortable talking about whatever is coming up in my life. With Charm's help, I feel like I've built a really strong relationship with my chart and with astrology. As we've continued our sessions, my astrological literacy has really improved, but Charm has always made the information really accessible and understandable. I revisit my notes from our sessions frequently, and every time I discover more detail and nuance that I had previously missed. I highly recommend getting a reading with Charm, she synthesizes astrological information so beautifully and has always treated my chart with such care and detail. She is also just very lovely to spend time with!
Jenny Kerry M, Apr. 2021
I did a birth chart and year ahead reading and it was fantastic! Charm layered in so many details throughout our conversation and really invited me into an understanding of what the chart was all about. Also, she totally answered my armchair astrologer questions, which was really fun for me. I loved the handouts that came with the reading and the opportunity to check out the video again to think more about what's in the stars. Thanks, Charm!
K.G., Apr. 2021
I feel very grateful to have had the opportunity to get a reading from Charm. I am a bit of an astrology junkie and have had readings from many great astrologers, but she is at the top of my list and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you for your insights Charm!!!
Sharon S., Apr. 2021
Charm offered really helpful information and asked questions that guided me to think deeply about my chart in ways that I haven't been able to understand or access on my own. Sincere appreciation for your work!
NE, Apr. 2021
I loved working with Charm. 😊 She led me through my Birth Chart and My Year Ahead. She had so many useful insights and shared so many valuable connections with me! I am drawn to her perspective and her energy and the way in which she addresses potentially vulnerable areas and spacious opportunities for growth and action. It was a beautiful experience for me. Thank you Charm!!
AG, Apr. 2021
I received a birth chart reading from Charm and loved every single second of it! Not only did she explain houses and alignment and how they all connect together, but she literally told me everything I know about myself and why I behave the way I do based on planetary alignment. It was surreal and amazing and I can’t wait to book more sessions with Charm in the future!
Sarah, Apr. 2021
I booked a birth chart reading with Charm and it was a wonderful experience. Charm incorporated methods like AstroCartoGraphy for a comparative look at my relocated birth chart and local space lines. This is a really fascinating exercise and I don't know of many astrologers who offer it; I loved her wide range of traditional timelord techniques used in combination with astrolocality. I also really appreciated Charm's professional manner and way of being. She was warm and engaged throughout the session and it was a pleasure to be in conversation with her. I'm thankful for the grace given during certain technical difficulties on my end. Her perspective and suggestions regarding the life topics I was most preoccupied with were thoughtful and spot-on. I've already recommended Charm Torres to several friends (all with varying levels of astro knowledge) and will continue to do so to anyone who will listen!
AE, Apr. 2021
had such an amazing astrocartography reading last night with @charm_astrology it just made me love and appreciate astrology even more and how it can explain literally EVERYTHING brb taking notes of every single thing you said
saturn’s baby @spaceamelia, Apr. 2021 // transcribed from Twitter
Charm excels at giving clients a robust, thoroughly researched, and gently communicated reading. Throughout the 3+ years I have been a client, Charm has keenly matched my level of familiarity and interest in astrology, providing me more detailed and advanced explanation and insight over time. As a teacher myself, I value the rare skill Charm demonstrates in being able to not only connect with a broad range of clientele at various levels but also build their capacity for understanding. I come away from each reading (whether natal chart, Saturn Return, 6-month or 1-year ahead) feeling like I have not only received valuable information but also learned and grown in my own capacity to apply astrological insight to my life between readings.
Momi C., Mar. 2021
I met with Charm for a birth chart + solar return reading and she was just fantastic. Charm is clearly very knowledgeable and professional, but also showed a warmth and empathy that made me comfortable exploring some of the more intimate areas of my astrology. Highly recommend!
JK, Mar. 2021
Charm was so sweet and informative! This session really helped to affirm where I am at currently and remember to trust myself and where I am going. Charm is very talented and lovely to work with!
Ellie A, Mar. 2021
My session with Charm was incredibly affirmative. I booked a birth chart reading followed by a 30 minute tarot reading. Charm is knowledgeable, warm, insightful, and answered all of my questions thoroughly and thoughtfully. I had space in session to ask clarifying questions, and Charm asked me questions in a gentle way that helped me to understand how my natal astrology has shaped my lived experience. I left feeling grounded, supported, and inspired to incorporate some of Charm's 'nuggets of wisdom' in my day-to-day healing work. I recommend working with Charm highly, and I look forward to my next reading!
S, Mar. 2021
Charm is so lovely!!! I learned so much about my 'natal promise' as well as the year ahead and it was all mind blowingly accurate. I also loved that you receive a video recording of the session because it was so much information to take in I couldnt keep it all straight. So being able to go back and watch was amazing. 10/10 first reading!
Chloe, Mar. 2021
I've seen Charm for her year ahead astrology forecasts around my birthday for two years now and they are such an amazing tool for me to head into my next year with intention, clarity and knowledge. Thank you Charm!
Kristen Elysse, Mar. 2021
I really enjoyed my reading with Charm. Since our consultation several months ago I have begun to see her predictions for me unfold in front of my eyes. She met me where I was at in my astrological knowledge and spoke to it clearly. I like her take on things and her work is always done with care and consideration. I definitely recommend booking a reading with Charm.
EP, Mar. 2021
I did a year in review and Saturn return reading with Charm. She was professional, timely, extremely well prepared, and most importantly able to break down the complex world of astrology into a context that I could easily understand. I really appreciated the way she was able to share what was going on for me astrologically and allow me to make pertinent connections. I highly recommend working with her you will gain huge insights and walk away with a clear vision of where to focus your energy.
Laxmi Dady, Mar. 2021 // @coachlaxmi
charm gave me a year ahead reading. we talked about the themes of the year, and some general months to look out for. she was very patient and warm. she offered me a book recommendation and an horary astrologist. i felt that she intuited what i was looking for and tried to help me through a difficult time. i felt cared for.
B, Feb. 2021
I had a Saturn Return reading with Charm and she was delightful! She was confident yet relaxed and it was very obvious that she knew what she was talking about. She held space for my reactions and answered my questions thoroughly. I wouldn't hesitate to book again (and absolutely will!).
Elizabeth, Feb. 2021
Charm's Year Ahead reading was so thorough and beautifully prepared. Charm does enough pre-work to get a grasp on what she wants to talk you through, but she leaves so much room for questions and dialogue. I really enjoyed her consultative approach to my year ahead reading and how much she took into account the questions I had sent in my intake form. I am looking forward to finally being out of my Saturn return and have so much to look forward to thanks to Charm's wonderful reading for me!
VD, Feb. 2021
Charm was such a delight to meet and connect with for my first tarot reading. She was really informative when it came to finding the right spread for my question and she provided a lot of insight culturally as we are both Filipino. Thank you so much Charm!
Christina, Feb. 2021
I had a birth chart + year ahead reading done by Charm. I thought Charm was extremely organized and well-prepared. I found the session to be relaxed and non-intimidating. Charm's demeanour makes for a warm and welcoming atmosphere that felt safe for exploring very intimate parts of oneself.
Teresa, Feb. 2021
@charm_astrology had an amazing relocation consultation. I have been telling all my friends about it. It’s so dope to hear someone who doesn’t know you listen to your plans and reaffirm them and explain how moving will effect your chart. Also Charm’s voice is so soothing.
Kiara, Feb. 2021 // transcribed from Twitter
This session was so incredibly helpful! I received an astrology reading where we primarily focused on relationships and relocation. Charm made me feel accepted and gave me actionable advice when it came to choosing a place to live. I left the reading feeling much more clear about how to proceed forward and what to expect the upcoming year.
Julianna, Jan. 2021
My Birth Cart + Year Ahead reading with Charm was the best way to end the year! After a tough few years during Saturn's transit through Capricorn, I had some anxiety about what disruptions and roadblocks Saturn might bring in the next couple years. Thankfully, Charm was able to contextualize Saturn's interactions with my natal planets to help me understand why the previous few years had been so challenging, and gave me some great suggestions about how to focus my energy and attention over the next year. I also enjoyed Charm's use of locational astrology. She explaining my relocated chart, which confirmed a lot of what I feel is possible for me in the city in which I currently reside. Charm is a great listener, and I appreciated that she gave me space to share my own thoughts and feelings about my chart. Overall, I came out of the reading with a sense of confidence and direction. I look forward to future readings with Charm, and to gifting my friends readings with her!
Sabrina, Dec. 2020
I had a 6 month forecast and my very first ever Tarot reading. Blown away. The combination of the precise analytical nature of the astrology forecast with the intuitive tarot reading really was magical and it left me with a lot to think about and reflect on regarding some upcoming career decisions--and it revealed to me things I didn't even know my heart was longing for in my current relationship. So much of that magic is due to the way that Charm balances considerable knowledge with deep insight. They obviously care about not only the work they are doing but the person they are doing the work for. By the end of the session my heart and my brain were buzzing and hopeful. I felt like I had some good information to make some decisions in my life but also like my heart had just had a spa session. I will definitely be back in 6 months!
HB, Dec. 2020
I did an hour and a half birth chart + year ahead reading and I was thoroughly impressed with how knowledgeable Charm is. Everything was broken down in a way that was easy to understand and we made many connections between my past and present. I highly recommend getting a reading with Charm.
M, Dec. 2020
Super knowledgeable on astrology! Very kind and open during session. Would definitely recommend!
Whitney, Dec. 2020
My Saturn Return session was wonderful. Charm is incredibly knowledgable, and did a great job explaining the many factors at play in my chart, while leaving room for me to contribute my own reflections. Highly recommend!
Tori M, Dec. 2020
I got a Birth Chart + Year Ahead reading done. I have always been into astrology but only recently started learning about birth charts and Charm’s insights about reading charts gave me a whole new, extremely helpful perspective. She was incredibly kind and easy to work with, I always felt very comfortable during the reading. This was my first time but I will definitely be coming back for more readings!
I did a birth chart + the year ahead reading with Charm and was so pleased with it! Charm was patient and thorough, explaining everything on my chart fully and carefully, with plenty of visual aids, charts, and diagrams to back it up (all of which I received to keep at the end of the session as a reference!) Charm is clearly incredibly knowledgeable about astrology, birth charts, the planets, and more, and more importantly, is compassionate and kind. Charm sought to educate me about my chart, including me and my thoughts in the interpretation, and was overall just so lovely to spend time with. I highly recommend a reading with Charm.
KLM, Nov. 2020
I had a Year Ahead reading with Charm which perfectly landed on my birthday -- what a treat! The reading was layered, detailed and thoughtfully put together. There was a lot of opportunity to explain my experiences, so that she was able to pinpoint meanings within my chart. As I am becoming an astrologer myself, she was quick to adjust to more technical talk, and I had fun interpreting different parts of my chart with her. Based on the resources she provided with my reading, she must also be amazing at speaking to Astrology beginners as well. Charm used both modern and traditional techniques, and had a beautiful way of weaving everything together. Thanks again, Charm!
Meghan McCooey, Nov. 2020
I've had two sessions with Charm in the past few months—a natal chart reading and a year ahead + a tarot reading. Charm is so thoughtful, gracious, and in-depth in these readings. A very self-centric feeling I've had after these sessions, still nonetheless true, is that Charm absolutely and thoroughly reads and sees me. I appreciate that Charm zooms in on a few areas of one's chart. This approach, rather than a broader, more general reading, really emphasizes a moment or feeling that I have had and couldn't exactly explain. These sessions are so beyond pop astrology (which is why this is excellent!) and I truly believe they are the purest form of self-care that I've offered myself in recent months. To ask a professional to make sense of the universe is one of the most beautiful gifts one can give to themselves, and Charm is absolutely the one to do it.
Sarah, Nov. 2020
I received a solar return reading with tarot and was really impressed by everything Charm said! Her knowledge of astrology was impressive and helped me understand the upcoming transits in a simpler way. I am very glad I got this reading!
K, Oct. 2020
My Year Ahead astrology reading with Charm left me feeling affirmed and supported with relevant ways to understand present and upcoming changes. Charm is highly skillful, kind, and knowledgeable--I feel like I have several new ways of understanding my chart as a result of a single reading with her. I recommend her work whole-heartedly!
Lo Kwa, Nov. 2020
I got a really great Saturn Return reading with @charm_astrology earlier & now I feel better/am not beating myself up for feeling like I failed my Return because I know I learned a lot the past 3 years & whatever limitations I have right now is there to teach me something!
Triszh Hermogenes, Oct. 2020 // transcribed from Twitter
I just got the most comprehensive year ahead reading with @charm_astrology (zodiacal releasings! my relocated chart!) and my heart and mind both are so full and nourished. Even pros need to get other eyes on our charts. Book with her here!
Jeanna Kadlec, Sept. 2020 // transcribed from Twitter
Had a great locational astrology reading w @charm_astrology! Been thinking a lot about my future in HI, my home for the past 7 years. Highly recommend!! Here’s to a future full of dismantling capitalism, Saturnian partners, & Moon in the MC things
Pao, Sept. 2020 // transcribed from Twitter
Charm takes a fun and light-hearted approach to divination on social media, while being uniquely adept to the needs and nature of her clients. In my first reading with Charm, a year-ahead birthday reading, she guided our discussion with such grace and depth, which made it easier to be vulnerable and open. And, to create space for the actionable takeaways she provided in return, which have proven to be so valuable in the months that followed. Thank you, Charm!
S.E., Sept. 2020
Charm did an incredible job and helping uncover some of the larger forces at play in my life. She was able to translate her knowledge and expertise into meaningful interpretations related to my experience, and help me make connections I hadn’t seen before. I benefitted significantly from our time together and would recommend Charm without reservation.
Quinn, Sept. 2020
It was my first time ever speaking with a pro astrologer, and my session with Charm was amazing! She is knowledgable, easy to talk to, as well as pleasant and fun. Her Year Ahead reading shed so much light on things I've been through as well as what's in store for 2021. I would recommend it for anyone, especially if you are new to astrology!
Marny, Oct. 2020
i had the pleasure of having a birthday astrology reading and a year ahead reading with Charm Torres, an incredible astrologer and tarot reader. Charm and i arrived together on a very heavy day in my life and she held my feelings + worries + troubles with great care. she provided helpful insights and resources that i can learn from further into the year. i appreciate her accessible wisdom, humour, and grace as she discussed the various aspects of my chart and my future. thank you Charm!!! i'll see you again soon I hope. xoxo
Lea Rose, Aug. 2020
Month Ahead Reading - interesting, informative, accessible for someone with limited astrological literacy. Charm is friendly, welcoming, and well-prepared. Looking forward to re-reading the session materials she sent afterwards a s re-listening to our recorded session.
JB, Aug. 2020
My locational astrology with Charm was eye opening. It've never done a birth chart reading before and I've learned a lot about how my present come to be from relocating from Hong Kong to Toronto. She explained everything clearly for a newbie like me and she gave me these great resources to keep and to read more about my chart. She has a calming and friendly energy and I really enjoyed my session with her.
W.K., Aug. 2020
I have done a few astrology readings in my life but @charm_astrology by far, was the absolute best and most thorough reading I have ever gotten. I asked so many questions I feel like I need another. So kind and reassuring! Giving thanks for life for the blessing of the new year!

My recent Year Ahead reading with Charm was enlightening and inspiring. Prior to our meeting, I had been impressed by her breadth of, and commitment to, study of astrology, particularly Hellenistic and Horary techniques. I was looking forward to her perspective and insights, as I was fairly new to these approaches.
Charm has an effortless command of diverse astrological theories and a gift for eloquently conveying dynamics that make them easy to understand and internalize. At one point in our session, she had several windows open on her screen: my birth chart, a timelord chart, astrolocation, maybe an ephemeris at one point...? It was a thrill to dance back and forth between these with her, as she wove a thread that made sense and led us to new thoughts and connections! I look forward to revisiting the recording of our session and exploring the many layers and concepts we covered. Charm's presence is very calm and welcoming. I felt immediately at ease and free to flow with her insights. It was a lovely conversation that left me with so much to think about and take with me through the months ahead. I highly recommend working with her! Thank you, Charm!

Thank you @charm_astrology for the amazing reading today! It was my first professional reading even though I've been studying astrology for 4 years. I confirmed a lot of things and have a better idea of what's ahead for the year as well as the direction I'm headed professionally!

I just had a birthday astrology session with Charm for the first time yesterday and I loved it. She's a wonderful communicator, very clear and I found the format of doing the session on Zoom worked well for astrology. I found it easy to follow and it was nice to have the visual aid of her pointing out things on my chart while she talked about them to be helpful. She's passionate and embodies the language of astrology but does it in a way that's quite accessible. Speaking of accessibility she takes a lot of care in her intake form and her business to make sure that her readings are accessible in all the meanings of the word. I highly recommend doing a session with her if you're been curious, you'll be sure to learn something new about yourself. Thanks Charm! <3

The Birth Chart + The Year Ahead" is so comprehensive that I am now a loyal, regular client, flourishing in day-to-day living (even in these very challenging COVID-19 times!) with Charm's "The Month Ahead" readings. These sessions every 4 weeks are vital to my awareness and insight on how best to approach the upcoming days. The data specific to natal transits is truly invaluable!!! I am now armed with crucial cosmic knowledge, individualized to me, which goes a long way towards lessening my overall anxiety and increases my confidence in progressing through any challenging issues or circumstances.

I had my first birth chart reading ever with Charm and I found it to be both a magical and grounding experience. Charm is an exquisite astrologer who is exceptionally knowledgeable but also approachable in her practise. I view astrology as being an intimate practise; I immediately felt completely comfortable opening up to Charm and discussing different aspects of my birth chart. I came out of the reading feeling inspired and refreshed, with new insight to aid in my self-reflection. I am so happy with my experience and would highly recommend Charm :-)
JP, Jul. 2020
Charm clearly makes sure every client get's their money's worth when they work with her. I see what people are saying in her reviews praising her warm and inviting energy. I booked a month ahead reading which was only 30-minutes long but I still received much more insight and information than I expected as someone that isn't entirely new to astrology. Specifically, I appreciate that she contextualized my month ahead with my annual profection planet first. I will definitely be coming back to Charm for more readings soon, especially since she offers to many different kinds of readings. I definitely will be reaching out for a Saturn Return reading since mine is coming up.
Chris, Jul. 2020 // @OneWingedChris
I had a birthday reading with Charm, who helped me to better understand many elements of my chart and astrology in general. The reading looked at the next year of my life and gave me insights into what elements of my chart I can expect to be activated. Everything Charm shared with me connected deeply to what is occupying space in my heart and my mind right now, and offered me new perspectives to reflect upon and apply to different areas of my life. This was my first reading with Charm--and an astrologer in general--and it will not be my last. Thank you so much for your work!
Crystal, May 2020
Thank you for the Birth Chart Reading!! I appreciate your guidance through the chart and the clear explanations of the meanings and connections. Thank you for holding the space for me to share some emotional personal and family history in relation to my birth chart. I appreciate you for sending the video! I've rewatched it a couple times and have made more connections since. So happy to have this saved so that I can always go back to it. I look forward to our next reading!
Alec Perez, May 2020 // @alecisamazing
My birth chart reading with Charm was so fun and educational! She's very insightful and explains everything in a way that's really easy to understand, frequently asking if you have any questions or need clarification. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone who has been considering getting their birth chart read, and I'm sure her other astrology and tarot readings are just as good! I hope to get more readings from her in the future!
Erin, May 2020
My reading with Charm was quite wholesome. Charm created a warm, soothing and safe environment. I felt seen in every aspect of my chart and I was met with an empathic approach when we discussed my upcoming challenges. I would highly recommend booking a consultation with Charm, you won't regret it!

My birthday month reading with Charm was the first personalized astrology reading I've received. I learned so many new things about my chart and gained helpful ideas on how to work with the astrology in the year ahead. I really appreciated Charm's use of open and inclusive language around gender identity, relationships and ability, it made the experience feel safe and relevant to my life. I've re-watched the recording twice since the initial reading and each time I gain new insights as the year unfolds. I think that birthday readings with Charm have become a new tradition for me!
EW, Jan. 2020
I've had three astrology sessions and counting- with definitely more coming in the future!- with Charm. Before working with Charm, understanding the vast complexities of astrological languages and concepts seemed like a far-off reality for me. However, Charm's incredibly accessible and poetic talent in going through each layer of meaning in my chart helped me unlock my internal constraints in understanding astrology. I now find myself leaning on her work to not only navigate my future, but also in gaining a deeper understanding of where I have been in life. Charm's passion in her work is evident during sessions, as is her inherent values in sharing astrological information that benefits us individually and collectively. Needless to say, I look forward to each and every session with her, and cannot recommend her services enough to all! (Note: I am also Deaf, and Charm has worked on providing stellar text access to me despite audio barriers. Thank you so much, Charm!)

I've had the pleasure of having two astrology readings with Charm. Despite both being done virtually, her warmth and care come across very strongly and I immediately felt comfortable with her. During the readings, there was a perfect mix of conversation and learning/teaching. I especially recommend her for fellow LGBTQ+ people who want their identity treated with care and consideration!! I'm stoked to have her as an insightful astrologer for future readings as I feel she has been one of the most thorough and caring astrologers I've come across.
Gala Emm, Feb. 2020
We hired Charm for one of our Co-founders birthdays, she was kind enough to tailor our experience to our needs. She started with a mini lesson on astrology and the importance of it in our day to day life followed by a private reading with our Co-founder. Our experience with Charm was that she was warm, reliable and extremely knowledgable. She not only travelled to our location but she also spent genuine time with all of us, she felt like a friend and has an air of professionalism mixed with warmth and compassion. We would 100% recommend her for any moments you want to make magical.
Charlotte, Feb. 2020
I just had a beautiful Year Ahead reading with @charm_astrology that blended annual + advanced profections, astrocartography, solar revolution, secondary progressions, zodiacal releasing, and tarot. I'm so grateful for such a dazzling encounter with such skillful synthesis! TY!
Michael J. Morris, Jan. 2022 // transcribed from Twitter
I had a wonderful experience working with Charm. I am grateful for the process as much as the insights. I felt safe and supported through the whole reading and I felt a lot of heart and care was put into it. Thank you Charm!
Alysha Brilla, Jan. 2020, Artist, Music Producer & Songwriter
My birth chart and year ahead reaching with Charm Torres was a wonderful, warm, and genuine session. It can be hard to jump into meaningful and personal conversation about lots of different parts of your life but Charm facilitated an open and accepting space. I was asked questions about my life that I hadn't thought of before and those invitations to reflection have stuck with me after our session. I highly recommend booking Charm Torres for a consultation/session!
LE, Feb. 2020
Meeting with Charm was the first time I'd met with an astrologer to read my birthchart. It was amazing. She is so lovely, and so intuitive. And she really demystified astrology for me. Thank you so much Charm!
wishingwell, Jan. 2020
I had a birthday astrology consultation from Charm and it was great. She laid out everything very clearly and answered all my questions so I could understand things that weren’t clear.
Mike, Jan. 2020
As a baby student of astrology, I left my session with Charm feeling both grounded & seen, as well as thrilled to dive into the recording as study material. Our reading was a look at the 6 months ahead, which clarified a lot for me around my daily experience of being alive & fed me sustained intellectual nourishment. I'm so grateful for the beautiful work Charm does to translate the stars for us, to reflect the sky back to us :)
bruce, July 2020
Locational astrology: Charm is an incredible astrologer and has such a warm energy. Learning about the astrological impact of my adoption and how moving to a different continent affected my natal chart was so insightful and eye-opening. Would absolutely recommend Charm and her services <3
K, June 2020
I received a natal chart + 6 month ahead reading from Charm and am a long-time fan of her work! Charm was extremely thorough and engaging, explaining complex topics clearly. She is also extremely warm and I felt very comfortable during our reading. Charm is a fabulous astrologer for both beginners and more advanced students alike.
Davis Carr, Jan. 2020 // @meridiantarot
Charm’s reading was both joyful and precise, and she left a lot of room and agency for me to affirm the astrology with my life rather than the other way around. Charm is very knowledgeable, paying attention to the past, present and future astrological transits, and consulted in an encouraging way for me to help plan my next year and affirm the decisions I am making. I received birth chart and year-ahead reading, and I enjoyed learning more about the zodiacal releasing and annual profections techniques.
Emilia Wang, June 2020 // @emiliawwang
this work with charm that i received from a group of friends as a birthday gift was and still remains rich meaningful and necessary as my path unfolds...there is a wealth of star wisdom to revisit review reflect upon at any time i need the clarity that is uniquely my constellation...the one that is truly symbolic of my connection to all living beings across the globe that were present when i arrived...deep gratitude, charm for walking me through the houses my being calls home and providing insight into how my divine spaces can continue to become abodes of sanctuary as i surrender to the fullness of my being💎🌸💎🌸💎🌸
tUkU, Jan. 2020
I gifted myself a solar return reading from Charm and I am so glad I did. I left feeling motivated, focused and knowing exactly how to take on my year ahead. At a time of so much uncertainty, looking to the stars provides me with what I feel like is a little superpower, and I have thought-leaders like Charm to thank for making it so accessible. Much, much recommend this talented astrologer and kind soul.
Kait Fowlie, April 2020 // @kait_fowlie
I had a great Astrology solar return birthday reading with Charm and then an in-person follow-up session a few months later. She is extremely professional, and has a lot of knowledge of traditional methods. Toronto is really lucky to have her within the astrology community. Thanks Charm!
MMG, Feb. 2020
Charm's calming energy facilitated an ease in discussing vulnerable topics. Her nonjudgemental and kind guidance helped me navigate employment decisions and immigration grief. I definitely recommend her consultation work!

I received the Birthday Consultation from Charm as a gift from a friend. It was such a beautiful and uplifting experience which made me feel very hopeful for the year ahead. Charm is so warm and I felt immediately at ease with her. It is very evident how knowledgeable she is in her practice and there were times where I had chills because it was downright moving how accurate her readings were. She also provided files from our session (of the materials we covered) so I could look them over and really absorb the wealth of information she had given me. Our session gave me a lot to think about in my daily life and is pushing me towards deepening my own spiritual practice. She was extremely insightful and this experience is something I would highly recommend to others and look forward to making sessions with Charm an annual gift to myself!
Charm is a kind, thoughtful astrologer, speaking truthfully about what she sees. She actively listens to clients' feedback during the session, interpreting the astro so that you can easily and clearly understand what's happening in your chart. Charm's work is well worth the investment (and if you're in the US, pay her $45USD for the 45 minutes, send a tip along!).
Sam, Jan. 2020
The Birth Chart and Year Ahead reading I had with Charm was wonderful. I felt seen and well-guided through the different aspects of my chart, and she met me on my level of astrological understanding. Her approach to discussing both placements with potential and more challenging ones felt balanced and comfortable. The reading felt like an insightful, wide-ranging and easy conversation - particularly with regards to looking at my year ahead. Would definitely recommend booking a consultation with Charm!
KWL, Feb. 2020
It is rather hard to put into words what an experience with Charm is like. Every time I sit with her my mind is blown by her brilliance and careful attention to all the nuances that make up an astrological reading. Seeing Charm makes me feel grounded and like I am coming home.
Chelsey Lichtman, Jan. 2020 // @queerealty
I am a long time client of Charm's (her first ever actually!), and I so look forward to my twice yearly sessions with her. The insight, guidance, and direction she provides throughout each session is unparalleled. I recommend Charm to everyone I know who wants to see an astrologer, or doesn't yet know they want to see an astrologer. She will change your life guaranteed!
Chelsey Lichtman, Nov. 2020
Charm is a phenomenal astrologist/tarot reader. I've done a tarot and birth chart reading with her and both experiences were fantastic. Her approach is collaborative, educational (I learnt a ton from her), thoughtful and practical guidance. Highly recommend her if anyone is looking for a great reader but also teacher 🙂
Shiori Mine, Jan. 2020
Charm accurately predicted the return of my cat with horary astrology! 10/10 💗

Really helped me ground and gave me guidance!
Kate Jellyn, Mar. 2020
i’m a long time fan! charm is both technical and intuitive, she makes what often confounds me understandable. it’s like she’s relaying a story that the stars tell. and, listening to her helps me hear myself better.
Karen B.K. Chan, Jan. 2020, Sex and Emotional Literacy Educator // Fluidexchange.org
Charm created a warm environment which set the stage for a wonderful, thoughtful reading. It felt spot on, and I look forward to seeing parts unfold throughout the year. Think I’m going to make it a yearly ritual.
Carr Mel, Jan. 2020
My reading with Charm was superbly insightful! It really helped me bring my best game for the year to come. I am looking forward to my next year ahead reading with her.
Lalou Thibault, Jan. 2020
I received a Year Ahead birthday reading with Charm, and it was fantastic! Her reading has stuck with me all year. I have gone back to our recorded session and the additional material she sends — especially when times get tough — to help me stay grounded and to appreciate what's in front of me. Her readings are deep and very informed, but aren't overwhelming, and I love how she adds in tarot as support. I recommend her services to my friends who are also looking for an astrologer, and I've given her birthday readings as a gift too! I'm a huge fan!
Kathryn Bondy, Jan. 2020 // Golden Age Botanicals
charm is a tremendously empathetic, sweet and clear astrologer who has many years of deep study and experience under her (very stylish) belt! 10/10 would recommend to anyone 💗💗
Alyssa Rachel, Jan. 2020
Charm is a skilled astrologer and delightful human being. I’d recommend Charm to any friend.
Catherine Grubb, Jan. 2020
My Saturn Return reading from Charm Torres was exactly what I was looking for. Charm gave me insightful, thoughtful guidance communicated in an affirming way. I am grateful for the opportunity to speak with them!
DR, Apr. 2020
“The last time I saw Charm in person (and incidentally the first time I met her in person), I introduced her to my friend as "my astrologer". I feel like that in and of itself, is a pretty strong testimonial!”
Carla McVittie, Jun. 2020
I found Charm's reading of my chart so helpful. Charm did such a thorough job in preparing for our reading. She took time to explain things to a newbie like me and opened up a new approach to understanding my life and purpose. Charm is so intuitive and kind. She checked in with me at all time and encouraged a dialogue and questions. I highly recommend a reading by Charm.
Carrianne Leung, Jan. 2020, Fiction Writer and Educator
I had a wonderful session with Charm last week - it was my first time having my natal chart read and she was very clear and thorough. She immediately made me feel at ease due to her friendly and professional demeanour, and is clearly very knowledgeable when it comes to her craft. I learned a lot throughout our session; it felt as constructive as therapy. I highly recommend Charm's services and will be back soon!
Cassiopeia Burrel, Jul. 2020
I saw Charm for my first ever natal chart reading and loved the experience! I learned so much about my own chart and astrology in general, and upon listening to the recording a week or so after the initial reading, I picked up even more this second time around. Thank you Charm! I highly recommend booking a reading, as I will be doing again in the future!
