Esoteric Counseling
Astrology, Tarot and Archetypal Counseling for Creative Liberation
Meet Jillian
Jillian Adel (she/her) is a Los Angeles-based multidisciplinary artist, anarchist, and Resident Mystic of The Wu:um. She explores the intersection of the archetypal and the intimately personal through ritual as a means of creative liberation. Her work with death, nature, and the erotic facilitate integration of shadow for a more equitable collective.
As the In-House Esoteric Counselor at The Wu:um, she brings her practices of counseling astrology, tarot and ritual to the community. Her work blends ancient Hellenistic methods, Hermetic philosophy, depth psychology, art-making and psychomagick. Her embodied devotion to the decimation of oppressive structures defines her goal of assisting others in deconstructing their psyches from capitalistic programming and rebuilding a more equitable, non-hierarchical world in alignment with nature’s laws through individual self-sovereignty.
Although she has flowed through spiritual communities in Los Angeles for the better part of a decade and got her first Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck when she was 14, her esoteric studies began in earnest when she began learning the Western Mysteries and practicing ceremonial magic in 2023 at 22 Teachings, School of Hermetic Sciences. She is mentored by 22’s Head of Faculty and Master Tarot Reader, Naha Armády, and has also studied under: James Jude,Laetitia Barbier,Bel Senlle,Jeramie Bellamay,Dr. Mary Antonia Wood, and Richard Tarnas.
She is currently available for Astrology and Tarot Consultations, both one-on-one and on an event basis. And her monthly group working, Death of the Moon, pursues revolution through ritual in alignment with the darkness of the new lunar cycle.
Offerings
Astrology Consultation
Astrology Consultations use your natal chart to interpret your archetypal blueprint. With this information, we can assess various areas of life in order to provide context, validation, and practical tools with which to embrace your strengths and remediate your challenges.
Initial consultations evaluate your 7 classical planets and their aspects. Follow-up readings have the option of going deeper into the natal promise, exploring the transpersonal planets and asteroids, examining timing and auspicious dates, or navigating specific questions and topics of interest.
Tarot Reading
Tarot readings provide clarity by way of divination through cards.
Tarot provides an energetic portrait that opens up a conversation with your spiritual guidance team and provides insight and actionable tools in areas of interest. The aim is to share clear and healing messages that will be most helpful to hear for you to align to your highest empowerment.
All readings appropriate for all levels. Accessible to those with no previous knowledge and full of depth for even the most seasoned practitioners.
Mini Reading
Pre-recorded 10 minute voice note readings are available for both tarot and astrology. Ask a question or choose an area of interest to look into.

One-on-One Consultations
Death of the Moon
The Death of the Moon is a monthly ritual exploring the revolutionary nature of coming undone in alignment with the darkness of nature. Lead by The Wuum's In-House Esoteric Counselor, artist and anarchist, Jillian Adel, the group will explore astrological, archetypal and anti-capitalist philosophy as an entry point for rooting in the body and venturing into the lesser-worn hallways of self. Combining idea with meditative exploration, the aim is to crack the artifice of our daily shell and allow creative juice to flow to use throughout the duration of the lunation cycle.
Join us each month on the new moon at The Wu:um for a night of revolution through ritual.
The next is Sunday, June 14 at 7pm.

“Jillian brought so much care, intuition, and insight to the reading, which left me feeling left affirmed and expanded. I'd especially recommend working with her if you’re a writer or artist, because Jillian really understands how astrology can speak to creativity, eroticism, and personal transformation.”
