What if unresolved health issues weren’t random—but part of a deeper energetic pattern you were born with?

In this episode of Rooted & Wild, I’m joined by Leslie McGuirk, an internationally acclaimed astrologer, author, and illustrator whose work is helping restore astrology to its original role as a diagnostic and healing tool.

With nearly four decades of experience, Leslie has guided thousands of clients—including creatives, thought leaders, and medical professionals—through what she calls astrological imprinting: a system that reveals the energetic blueprint each person is born with, like a personal owner’s manual. Rather than predicting the future, this approach illuminates patterns in the body, mind, and emotional landscape that can point directly to unresolved or chronic health issues.

In our conversation, we explore how astrology can offer insight into physical symptoms, emotional patterns, and long-standing health challenges—especially when conventional approaches fall short. Leslie shares how she translates complex birth charts into clear, practical insights, and why her work is increasingly valued in medical and psychological circles as a complementary lens for deeper healing.

We also discuss her book The Power of Mercury (HarperCollins), where she explores how communication style, mental wiring, and nervous system patterns are shaped by Mercury’s placement at birth—and how misunderstanding these patterns can lead to stress, burnout, and imbalance in the body.

Leslie’s work bridges ancient wisdom with modern science, blending visual storytelling, intuition, and pattern recognition. As the founder of the Astrology Wisdom Academy and the creator of The Quest for Inspiration—a corporate creativity program taught at five-star spas and global companies—she brings a refreshingly grounded, accessible approach to astrology.

From her TEDx Hollywood talk The Importance of Being Wrong to her frequent appearances on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, Leslie’s mission remains the same: to awaken the intelligence of the heart through the language of astrology—and to remind each of us of the brilliance we were born with.

This episode invites you to rethink astrology not as belief, but as information—and to consider what your body may already be trying to tell you.
