My name is Mark Romanenko and I’m an astrologer based in the Pacific Northwest. I view astrological consultations as a sacred space where both client and astrologer participate in the mystery of a living cosmos full of divine wisdom. My practice is deeply rooted in Hellenistic techniques and informed by Ancient Greek and Indian philosophies, following the lineage of my primary teacher Adam Elenbaas.
I also draw inspiration from Christian mysticism, navigating the complexities of faith and spirituality. This journey allows me to connect the insights of astrology with the profound mysteries of existence, honoring both the divine intricacies of the universe and the sacred dimensions of life. I believe that astrology offers a unique pathway for contemplation, illuminating the interplay between the heavens and our everyday experiences.
In addition to my formal studies, I have been significantly influenced by the work of renowned astrologers such as Chris Brennan, John Frawley, and Steven Forrest. Their teachings have shaped my understanding and practice, providing valuable perspectives that I integrate into my readings.
I am dedicated to creating a compassionate and insightful atmosphere during consultations, where you can explore your personal journey and uncover the deeper meanings within your astrological chart. Together, we can delve into the mysteries of the cosmos and its reflection in your life, fostering a sense of connection and purpose in your daily life and spiritual path.
“I gained a new insight into my natal chart that has really been resonating in the days after the reading. A deeper understanding/view into the balance between oneness and limitations. I also really appreciated his reading into the upcoming eclipses and transits. I feel some fresh motivation for how I may want to prepare and consider for a vision ahead. I’m glad I booked with him and would recommend for anyone considering a look into their astrology.”
“The reading I got from Mark was accurate and very helpful to me. He made sure we were on the same page about what I wanted to talk about and helped me see nuances to my chart I hadn’t considered myself. He’s very easy to talk to; in fact, it felt like sitting down with a good friend to get a second opinion for a big life decision.”
“Mark’s reading of my birth chart was a great experience. He provided me with insights into the chart and upcoming transits that have given me useful perspective. It was particularly helpful to have him point out transits that will require more/less active work on my part. It helped me feel more clear on where to focus my energy within the realm of personal development. I also learned a lot about astrology from the way he explained/described things. Definitely recommend!”
“Mark is a warm-hearted and dedicated astrologer. He was well-prepared and immediately put me at ease when we started the session. I was given enough time to introduce myself and the topics I wanted to cover in the session, and I deeply appreciated how Mark listened with an open heart and a clear focus. He provided a thorough analysis of my birth chart, addressing even challenging placements with respect and honesty. Being an astrology student myself, I really enjoyed his nuanced explanations and meticulous delineations. I left the session feeling seen, lighter, and with more clarity and direction. I’m so grateful for this meaningful and genuine interaction. Mark is a true gem and I cannot recommend him enough.”
“My reading with Mark was focused on career questions/directions that I am working through. He provided insight into which ways my natal chart supports the overall work that I do and clarifies the challenges I need to take head on. In addition, he pointed out and helped me to understand how the major transits over the next few years are actually supportive of the changes I want to make, but also where the discomfort might lie in the process so that I can be aware and prepared. I found Mark’s insights very helpful and I look forward to following up with him in the future!
I truly appreciate the affordable reading program Nightlight is offering because it allowed me to actually have a professional reading—something I have not done prior to this. I learned so much in a short time!”
“Overall, had a wonderful session. Mark was warm, welcoming, and very patient while I had technical issues. He gave me insights into certain planetary placements which I hadn’t realized previously and also helped unpack some transits that were happening in the near future. I was surprised and felt happy to know that Venus retrogrades in natal charts aren’t always negative, which is a misconception that I’ve had for a while. Very grateful for the experience and to have an open-minded chat about other related topics! Look forward to the next one.”
