About Søphia
SØPHIA: That’s me, Sandra. I’m a Tarot reader, astrologer, and eternal student, with a deep passion for books and literature. My identity is neurodivergent, empathetic, and collective, and my practice emerges from that intersection.
My training in Astrology and Tarot has developed through the teachings and mentorship of Hanna Graves, Cult Mother; Laetitia Barbier; Luís Ribeiro, Academia de Astrologia; MOIRAS – Center for Research in Traditional Astrology; Chris Brennan; and Letícia Coca, Piloto Júpiter.
I am a member of ISAR – International Society for Astrological Research; the Association for Young Astrologers; the Tarot Association of British and International Members; and the Tarosophy Tarot Association.
With a background in Art Studies, a specialization in Cinema, a Master’s in Literary and Cultural Studies, and a PhD in Literary Theory, my academic and professional path has always been intersectional and multidisciplinary. I worked full-time as a photographer for eight years. While today I present myself as a Tarot reader and astrologer, I continue to see myself primarily as someone in constant learning, driven by insatiable curiosity.
I believe these tools can create space to think, feel, and act more critically and creatively in our everyday lives. My practice is for real, tangible, human people, and for the struggles they face in a world marked by systemic inequalities and injustices. That’s why I embrace an approach that considers the social, political, and emotional context of our lives.
In Astrology, I work with traditional Hellenistic and medieval techniques, maintaining a constant dialogue between tradition and contemporary context.
In an era of distraction, Tarot and Astrology call for presence. They invite critical thinking, self-exploration, and openness to the extraordinary. And it is in that liminal space, between who we are and who we could be, that new and more authentic narratives emerge.
Welcome to SØPHIA! Let’s explore the possibilities of being, existing, and creating. Together.
Testimonials
Other Testimonials:
“Beyond the course, which I highly recommend, SOPHIA did a reading of my natal chart and it was breathtaking. It was not just a reading but also a learning experience about how to interpret a natal chart, and above all, a journey of self-discovery. I highly recommend a reading with SOPHIA. She is kind, explains everything clearly, and shares her work with enthusiasm and love.”
“Sandra, I think you have no idea how much this has touched me. I was not expecting something so beautiful and so pure. I am truly at a loss for words.”
“You have a gift. You are wonderful. This light you carry should be shared with the world. I am moved to tears and honestly do not know how to thank you.”
“I did not expect something so detailed, structured, and professional. But even more, I did not expect it to make so much sense. I have reread the document several times and shared it with close friends to make sure I was not the only one seeing myself reflected there. We were all amazed by the accuracy of your insights. I cannot help but feel emotional about what you saw in me. It feels like you could have known me for years before reaching these conclusions.”
“It was fascinating to read both parts – astrology and tarot – and see how they intersected. I never imagined it would be so rich and insightful. Even though I thought I knew my natal chart, I realized no one had ever given me a proper reading. I finally saw things I had always felt but never seen reflected in previous readings. This reading made me think, ‘Yes, now this makes perfect sense.’”
“Your card reading left me completely astounded. I remember you saying, ‘It is very interesting that this card came up, considering your reading orientation.’ I can honestly say it is almost shocking how precisely these readings reflected my dilemmas, searches, and uncertainties at this moment.”
“It was incredible, Sandra. Thank you so much. You have an amazing talent and I still feel deeply moved as I write this.”
