Sandra Nelly, Astrologer and Career & Business Coach

To start off, what is a fun fact about you?

Astrology has been a part of my life since childhood. My fascination began when I came across a book lying around the house that described different zodiac signs for children, parents, friends, and more. It resonated with me, and I was hooked. I've been applying it at school and in the work environment ever since. Everyone has always referred to me as the “Astrology girl.”

I was fortunate to be exposed to everything from Astrology and dream interpretation to crystals and pendulums through my mom and aunt, respectively, from an early age. I even had my first Astrocartography reading as a child without fully understanding what it was at the time. It felt like a full-circle moment when Astrocartography found me again later in life!

I’ve always been captivated by maps, spending countless hours with Microsoft Encarta and, later, in a dedicated map store while living in London. I would feel drawn to certain destinations to visit or move to and then make it happen. Now, looking at my Astrocartography map, it all makes sense.

How do you help your clients?

I have a 9th house stellium, meaning many of my personal planets and chart ruler are in the 9th house. In Astrology, the 9th house represents foreign countries, languages, travel, and higher education. I consider myself in the business of sharing knowledge and empowering my clients with as much information as possible to make informed decisions.

What services or products do you offer?

Based on my birth chart, I thrive in working one-on-one with clients and am meant to be of service and deliver rapid results. I offer a range of services, including Astrocartography, Astrology, and Human Design readings and strategy sessions, all with a primary focus on career and business. Additionally, I have authored on-demand masterclasses and courses to empower people to read their own charts and maps.

As a 1/3 Manifesting Generator in Human Design, my interests and passions are constantly evolving. When something excites me, I dive deep, research thoroughly, and incorporate new insights into my business. With a background in marketing, journalism, and career coaching, I integrate that expertise with spiritual tools to support my clients’ unique journeys.

I am also a bit of a trailblazer and am fascinated by the latest technology. I have built custom GPTs for my business to act as lead magnets and as extensions of myself and my framework, helping clients on a daily basis. I am passionate about helping other coaches and spiritual entrepreneurs incorporate AI into their practices, particularly encouraging more women to get involved in AI.

What kind of audience do you target your business toward?

Through my focus on Astrocartography, I attract digital nomads, people with flexible or remote jobs, solopreneurs, and business owners. I also work with many successful professionals and individuals at crossroads in their careers or considering where to live next, as well as business owners eager to find out where their businesses can grow even more and from where they can attract clients. Little-known fact: Your business also has a birth chart.

There is also a concept called remote activation, where you can bring the energies from a favorable place into your life through food, music, movies, language, and more without having to be physically present. For example, I watch travel vlogs from my supportive career and business locations and use those locations in organic social media posts.

Could you share another practical Astrocartography example?

I have a very supportive career line just west of Stockholm, Sweden, which amplifies my public status centered around communication. This has brought me numerous high-profile work and career opportunities in Sweden (I’ve lived there for a bit) and from people and businesses connected to Stockholm, even though I don’t live there anymore.

For example, I’m currently in the midst of being interviewed by you for Brainz Magazine, a company based in Stockholm, after you unexpectedly reached out to me to become an Executive Contributor. It’s a prime example of how Astrocartography works in practice.

Looking at my other supportive career and business lines, I’ve noticed that most of my clients have some sort of connection to locations within the orb of those lines. Whether they were born there, live there now, or work for a company based there.

What is your mission?

Many of the topics I work with are currently trending and growing in popularity. For example,

Condé Nast Traveler named Astrocartography a travel trend for 2025, and ELLE Magazine called Human Design a wellness trend to watch this year. My mission is to make these tools even more popular and accessible, helping as many people as possible optimize and align their lives, careers, and businesses.

How can people get in touch with you?

The best way to start is by visiting my website, where you can always find my latest offerings, many free resources, and my social media accounts. You can also discover my on-demand masterclasses and courses to empower yourself with chart-reading skills. If you’re interested in booking a reading or strategy session, my website has all the details you need. I would love to help you level up in life, career, and business!
