Are you a woman stuffed full of purpose and passion, but currently unsure how to bring it to life in the world?
You’re a smart, creative woman, with a whole bunch of unfulfilled desires (including the ones locked in your heart and never allowed to speak their name).
Deep down, you know you have something brilliant and beautiful to bring to the world.
But either it’s been elusive for way too long; or you’ve tried to bring it and it’s felt like barriers every which way until Sunday; or you’ve been doing it and now you’re craving something bigger, deeper, even more YOU.
You’re not looking for someone to simply tell you what to do, because you know you’re the boss of you.
But also, if ONLY someone could point you in the right direction, or shine a spotlight on the next steps so you can claim That Thing You Came Here To Do.
Or even just give you some support and strategies to figure out the next step from here.
And no doubt, some days you’re tempted to hand it all over to some ‘expert’ to do it all for you - even when you know that nobody else GETS you like you do.
Strategic StarMap Session
Individual one-to-one support when you’re ready to unlock the next steps on your trailblazing path forward, so you can do That Thing You Came Here To Do with ease, joy, and clarity.
My highest intention for you:
you receive the support of potent planetary allies who each have a vested interest in your clear and joy-filled self-expression (delicious!)
we create a step by step strategic plan, designed to support you in making internal and external changes gently and with grace and compassion (not bullying or hustle)
you experience change in ways that your nervous system can embrace rather than resist
you unlock the most you-oriented ways to blaze your unique trail (without the old outmoded systems of oppression that live in all our heads)
you open the door to embracing your own inborn gifts and powers, so you can reduce struggle, sacrifice and stress
Trusting someone with your astrological chart can feel tricky, because astrology can be (and has been) misused or misunderstood, in ways that can be disempowering or even cause actual harm.
So for clarity …
This is for you if:
you identify as a woman, non-binary or gender fluid human
you have a suspicion that you came here to do important things, but you’re struggling to get fully clear on what they are, or how to make them real - or you’re ready to uplevel and not sure if that’s magical thinking or your soul yelling YES!
you’re not looking for someone to TELL you what to do (yay for that!)
you sometimes have a habit of dragging yourself forward using brute force, willpower and self-shaming
you’re a complete newbie with astrology OR you’re very experienced but haven’t yet been able to use it to untangle this situation
you believe in both science and spirit, at least enough that you’re happy to explore both
This is not for you if:
you’re a man - please know that I love you guys, but my work isn’t going to light you up in the way that I can do for the women-oriented or gender fluid folks - and of course I have people to whom I can refer you
you’re actively cynical about astrology or brain science. I don’t mean you have to have 100% complete faith 24/7, I mean you don’t believe AT ALL. If this is you, my approach is going to be really frustrating (and I’d be happy to refer you to some colleagues whose approach might suit better)
you are looking for someone to whom you can hand over your power and authority. While I am 100% in support of you, I also know that you are the sole authority in your life, so everything we do together is a collaborative partnership
You’re already in business and you need to base your plan on recognising your business as its own entity with its own gifts, superpowers and purpose - because right now, that relationship seems to be getting kinda rocky (for that, you may want to consider the You and Your Business StarMap VIP Consult - and if you want to simply dip a toe into the waters of strategic astrology, by all means let’s start with a Strategic StarMap Session)
Wait… how is this different?
The stars don’t dictate who you are, or what’s possible for you, or what will happen next - despite what you may have heard.
Your own unique natal chart is not the source or the cause of your challenges in life (I spend a lot of time busting this particular myth!)
You didn’t arrive on the planet as a blank slate.
You came here with a unique-to-you set of innate superpowers: your gifts and talents, your natural ‘style’, your preferences and the complex and beautiful tapestry of threads which weave together to make you, you.
It’s a YOUness which can never be erased or lost - but it can get hidden or twisted by all the unconscious programming we all acquire in childhood.
After all, a Virgo kid who’s genius is noticing a glitch in the system and instantly knowing how to fix it, is NOT going to make herself popular with the adults around her. So of course, she ends up expressing a twisted ‘shadow’ version of Virgo until she frees herself to let that brilliance radiate freely in a positive, joyful way.
That programming comes from the systems of oppression and cultural pressures around us, from the ancestral trauma we might inherit through our families of origin, and from our own lived experiences. It’s a lot!
Your astrological chart doesn’t dictate who you are: it REVEALS the full, glorious human being you came here to be. And it provides a handy guide to the planetary allies who are your greatest helpers for doing things the easiest, most enjoyable ways possible.
After all, you came here to blaze a unique trail.
As Joseph Campbell once said, if you can see the path laid out before you, that means it’s someone else’s path, not your own.
And that can feel overwhelming, especially when it feels like you have to go it alone.
A Strategic StarMap Session is not about you being told ‘such-and-such is going to happen to you’ or ‘you have Moon in Capricorn so you’re doomed to work hard’ (yes, that’s what an astrologer once told me - ack!)
This is about embracing your own potential, noticing where things might have become twisted or been hidden, and liberating yourself from any of the toxic BS that’s been in the way.
It’s about planning out the adventure ahead, with an expert map reader who can help you read the map, help you plan and pack the best supplies for the trip, line you up with your best planetary companions, spot any obstacles worth knowing about (so you can go around, under, over or through), and hand you the lantern to light your way.
(And there are options for having the map reader come on the journey and help hold the lantern, if that’s what you end up deciding you’d like).
I’m Janette Dalgliesh
Ever since I was the union rep on a TV production in 1995 and went into battle for the child actors to get their proper lunch breaks, helping people to liberate themselves from toxic systems has been my jam.
I did it for nearly a decade, as a union organiser for actors and, later, for academics.
Since 2011, I’ve done it with many hundreds of students and clients.
I've been a student of astrology for over a decade, taking an anti-patriarchy and Jungian lens to this powerful symbolic language. And my favourite way to use it is to help people reconnect to the planetary allies that are the most enthusiastic and positive supporters of their goals and desires.
I’m also a potent coach, with two coaching qualifications totalling three years of training inside a very diverse student body, as well as various adjunct learnings in positive psychiatry, psychological first aid , trauma, identity shifting, conscious creation, mindset work, emotional intelligence, magic practices, and diversity, equity & inclusivity.
And with 20 years as a professional performer, a decade in progressive politics and union work, and growing up the daughter of a country doctor - it’s easy for me to work with clients from all walks of life.
Tanya Dee
“I have to share the very special session I had with Janette Dalgliesh this month.
Every time I connect with Janette, I walk away feeling more grounded, more powerful, more me. She has a way of acknowledging the realness—the personal hardships I have carried and the horrifying mess this world is in—and still yet always manages to leave me feeling strong, resourced, and ready.
So this year, I treated myself to a session with her for my birthday—and let me tell you, it was the ultimate soul-level gift. That hour felt like a spa day for my heart. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so deeply seen and valued.
Now, as I’m finally sitting down to read the report she sent afterward, I’m absolutely blown away. It’s 6pm, I’ve been on the go for 13 hours, haven’t eaten dinner—and yet, I feel lit up, calm, and completely capable. Like I can conquer anything... but also like I don’t need to rush. Because I know, deep in my bones, I’ve got this.
If you’re seeking support that meets you where you are and lifts you toward where you want to go, Janette is that rare kind of guide. And if you’re even thinking about working with Janette—stop thinking and go book the session. She is pure magic.”
What will be covered
Unveiling your inborn superpowers and gifts, and then stepping in to claim them, is a journey that begins with a map.
Imagine your most authentic self, the one who is doing the epic stuff she came here to do, is currently asleep in the tower, surrounded by thickets of thorns (social conditioning) that make it seem incredibly hard to get to.
Now, imagine you are also the hero of the story, riding in on your mighty steed, sword drawn to hack through those barriers so you can awaken the sleeping princess.
That’s the poetic metaphor - but what’s really included here?
First of all, I will meet you where you’re at, with what you need, all the way through.
Along the way, you can expect to encounter any or all of the following:
An enthusiastic team of planetary allies who are like VPs with areas of special interest - Mercury for commerce, Saturn for getting shit done, Jupiter for vision and Uranus for smashing through old crap. Your chart helps with designing a Strategic Plan which allows for how YOUR allies like to operate, so you can recruit their aid and weave it into your Strategic Plan
No more nasty crap in your head that says your chart is had ‘bad things’ in it (in 11 years of this work, I’ve never yet seen a ‘bad chart’ - only glorious humans full of potential)
No spiritual bypassing that ignores areas of challenge, and no toxic positivity which sticks a band-aid on the painful bits
Shining a spotlight on the joy that comes when you can unapologetically recognise that YES, this is who I came here to be, and what I came here to do - without any of the dude-bro hustle or the rush to Get It All Done
Practical strategies to help you steer from where you’re at now, to someone who is fully living that joyful vision of your own potential
Access to simple brain-changing protocols and/or magic practices that boost the support of your allies, while helping retrain your brain out of any old unhelpful patterns
Delightful ways you can use to ditch any of the ‘who am I to be doing that?’ BS that sneaks in so easily
Permission to embrace your powers, including the ones that have made it feel unsafe in the past (you don’t actually NEED permission from me - that would be absurd! - but sometimes our nervous systems FEEL the need to have someone say ‘you can do this’)
No longer struggle in the exhaustion of trying to figure this shit out on your own (imagine having non-physical allies who can help with the heavy lifting - ahhhhh!)
Meet the secret, hidden allies you may not previously have seen in your own chart, since we are rarely able to see our own charts fully (ask me how I know this one heheheh)
If you’re yearning for more clean, clear, aligned self-expression in the world, this is the first step - and it might be all you need.
The Nuts and Bolts
I am your cheerleader, your ally, your tour guide, your confidante and your partner-in-liberation, for the whole period of this ‘session’, not just during the time we meet face to face.
Here’s what you get:
Preparatory work (that feels less like work, more like a big warm hug). Prior to your first session with me, you will be invited to use my deeply compassionate and potent process of self-enquiry, perfect to help us hit the ground running. Colleagues from the coaching world have described this part as being profoundly supportive, all on its own.
A 90-minute live Zoom call where you will meet and get to know your key planetary allies, and we will design your strategic plan based on where you’re at, what you prefer, and what will be most potent and easy for you. Video calls last for 90 minutes, you can have your camera on or off, I will be sharing my screen so you can see exactly what I’m seeing in your chart, and calls are recorded (either directly to your computer, or to my cloud server if you’re using a mobile device and need to download it later).
A one-page ‘cheat sheet’ PDF outlining your unique Strategic Plan, so you can keep it handy
A lightly edited copy of my working notes, so you can easily remind yourself why you’re doing the different parts of your Strategic Plan. You can revisit the recording at any time, but sometimes you want a quick and handy reference doc, and this is it.
Bonus resources. I have a wide range of resources I’ve created over the years, and if I recommend one which would normally incur a cost, you get it included with your StarMap Session, so there are no extra costs.
OPTIONAL - you can, if you wish, add on 30 days of Asynchronous (AS) Coaching support at a special discounted price. This is ideal if you decide you’d like some help integrating and implementing the Strategic Plan for the first month. You don’t have to rush with deciding about this option as it’s is available up to 30 days after our second Zoom call. AS Coaching happens when we’re not present at the same time - in other words, via some kind of messaging system, rather than in a ‘live’ conversation. I prefer to use Signal, WhatsApp or Voxer, as they allow for both text messages and short voice memos. Email is also an option.
There are some ephemeral ingredients you can also expect to encounter in our time together:
Compassion: the most effective backdrop for change and growth, and a potent antidote to the mean voices and brain weasels in your head
Animal-body safety: comfort and consolation for your nervous system, no matter how fried, jangled or overwhelmed she is, or how busy you are
Absence of rush: we live in a culture renowned for its addiction to instant gratification, pressure of time, and FOMO. If you’ve ever tried accelerating hard off slippery mud, you know that rush often results in standing still; while gentle acceleration is what gets traction. Absence of rush is the foundation of your Strategic Plan.
Jodi Cleghorn
Janette’s practice of planetary magick is groundbreaking — both in its disruption of the old paradigm of “astrology” and in what it will create as a foundation for a new understanding of yourself and how to move through the world with fierce and compassionate grace.
The reading Janette did for me years ago, I still consider how Mars, Uranus, Jupiter and Venus play out in my chart. And how to leverage them for real abundance. Every over-achiever needs a Janette.
A note about the cost
I’ve never wanted the giant scaled-up business empire with a team of coaches and a bathtub overlooking the Eiffel Tower.
But my work does need for me to make a living, which is why I do it as a business and not as a non-profit or a hobby.
And the stark reality for all of us is that we live in a world where people’s access to resources is wildly variable, in ways that have nothing to do with their innate brilliance or their gifts or their knowledge; and everything to do with the systems in which we were all raised.
So I use ‘Pay from the heart’ pricing, as taught by the brilliant Mark Silver from Heart of Business.
For all of my StarMap offers, there are three prices to choose from.
Here’s how to make your decision:
first, ask your heart ‘is this the thing I need or want right now?’- and listen for a powerful yes or a powerful no
next, ask your heart ‘which is the right fit for my needs right now? - and listen for the nudge towards one of the two options
finally, ask your heart which of the three prices is most appropriate for you to pay (the $$ details are shown for each one below)
Standard: the ‘break even’ price, which enables me to keep the business going, and to put food on my table and a roof over my head
Growth: a generous amount designed for those who have more access to wealth and resources, who relish the opportunity to help subsidise those with less, and who want to support the growth of my business so I can, in turn, help more people
Access: an accessible price for those who are in a situation where paying more would put their own food and shelter at risk.
Regardless of which price you pick, you will get the exact same service - no ‘punishment’ for needing to use the Access pricing; and no FOMO-inducing ‘VIP extras’ for choosing the Growth option (though of course, you will get lashings of gratitude, if that’s your pick)
I don’t use traditional equity pricing, where prices are set based on someone’s membership of a historically marginalised community - it’s not a terrible model, but I prefer to make space for the reality that there are many individuals from those communities who have found a way to break free of old generational constraints; and there are many in traditionally privileged groups whose personal circumstances may be difficult.
Pay from the heart means I trust you to choose the price that is most appropriate to your own situation, the price that your own heart quietly whispers in your ear.
For the core Strategic StarMap Session:
Standard: $300 USD
Growth: $400 USD
Access: $150 USD (these are limited in number, please don’t abuse the system)
Add-On Asynchronous (AS) Coaching - 1 month
Totally optional extra month of asynchronous coaching, to support the implementation of strategies emerging from a Strategic StarMap Session.
You can’t buy it right now: instead, you will get a link for this offer in the follow up email I send you after our session together; and you’ll have 30 days to decide if you want it. No obligation to buy, and zero pressure.
AS Coaching means we do it all via messaging, on a platform such as Signal or Voxer - no Zoom calls required.
Pricing for the add-on AS Coaching option:
Growth - $350USD
Standard - $250USD
Access - $150USD

“A few years ago (10/2020), you gave me my astrology reading and today looking back on it I AM BLOWN AWAY!!!!
I forgot some of those things AND watching you on screen today was like you were showing me my future once I stepped into all of my GIFTS. You even some of the words I use to describe myself- innovative, disruptive. Wow!
I watched the entire thing and looking at that version of me then to now is just so mind blowing. EVERYTHING you shared with me, especially my Jupiter and how I am here to take people beyond what they think is possible for them is just truly TRUTH of who I am, what I embody and the way I work. Thank you for such a beautiful gift. I am in awe all over again!”
FAQs
-
Many modern astrologers view the natal chart through a Jungian lens, linking mythology, astrology and archetypes to create a profound understanding of who each of us came here to be.
I do that too, but I also know that from the earliest days of the ancients, through to the psychology of the 20th century, all astrology has been steeped in systems of patriarchy, colonialism, and misogyny.
Many of our most potent planetary allies have been ‘domesticated’ without our realising it, so for the past decade I’ve been seeking to ask ‘who are these allies when we strip away some of the toxic tropes that were never truly part of their nature?’
In 2021 I first brought this to my clients under the umbrella of ‘Liberation Zodiac’ and it’s been a fabulous way for people to claim their own sovereignty.
-
Yes, with some caveats.
We’d need to get on the same page in relation to matters of consent and confidentiality for the loved one to whom you’d like to make the gift.
Please use the ‘ask me anything’ form below to get in touch - because I would love to help.
-
My working hours are generally 9am to 4pm, Melbourne time (Australian Eastern Time).
To make it easier to navigate, I use an online scheduler called Acuity which allows you to see open spots in my calendar in YOUR timezone (sweet!).
If you’d like to check and see what my availability is like for, say, the next month or so, I’ve made a special link where you can preview how my system works.
Please don’t try to buy from this link, it has a ridiculous price attached and it was made just so you can check it out!
-
While it’s true that many of my clients are solopreneurs and small business owners, I also work with people whose passion and purpose is expressed in other ways.
My clients have included CEOs of non-profits, politicians, poets, physicians, and even doctoral candidates.
If you’re not sure, please drop me a note via the ‘ask me anything’ form below and we will figure it out.

Investing in this kind of service is a big thing, so if there is anything you need to ask before diving in, please zoom to the end of this page and use the contact form provided.

Cancellations & Refunds
When you book and pay, you’ll get a confirmation email with a link so you can dive into the pre-session work.

You’ll also get reminder emails 24 hours and 1 hour before the session, so you won’t miss it.
You can easily reschedule with the reschedule button, as long as it’s at least 24 hours beforehand. If you need to reschedule with less than 24 hours’ notice, you’ll need to drop me an email - this is to make sure I have time to get the notification of the change before we meet up!
Refunds
I don’t offer cancellation with a refund simply for a change of mind, so I want you to be really sure before you commit - if you’re not sure after reading this page in detail, do please reach out with any questions so I can support you to make a powerful decision one way or the other.
I also know that a change of circumstances is a very different situation from a change of mind, so refunds may be available - and we’d need to have a conversation first.
Refunds are based on the following principles:
Not available once our Zoom session has taken place
All future appointments are cancelled
You’ll stay on my email list, unless you unsubscribe as a separate thing (which you’re always welcome to do!)
If you’ve submitted any pre-work information, that data will immediately be deleted from my system
If I have given you access to any of my bonus resources, that access will be revoked
There will be an administrative fee of $50 USD deducted from your refund
Ask me anything
Questions? Awesome!
Please use this form to ask me anything at all, and I’ll get back to you as soon as humanly possible.
(Note - it might be the middle of the night for me right now, or I may be with a client, so ‘humanly possible’ generally means some time in the next 24 hours)
