Isha Lerner is so much more than an astrologer and when you listen to this deeply moving interview you will get it! I feel blessed that Isha has been a close friend since our children both started Waldorf School in 1985.
I am thrilled that she agreed to do this interview as her story is so important for all women who have begun a business from a love and passion for something that was once considered a fringe modality.
I have watched Isha shift from a place of not fully embracing her true calling to the shift of creating a highly successful business as an author, creator of a powerful line of flower essences, creator of her own Tarot decks, an international speaker, being a highly acclaimed astrologer, and so much more.
She shares so much deep wisdom in this interview and it will be especially potent to women entrepreneurs who want to follow their true passion and intuitive calling, and also develop a sustainable business.
Isha began her venture in her late 20s and is now stepping into her wise woman years. You will love her story and her advice about following your spiritual destiny.
About Isha Lerner
Isha Lerner is an astrologer with an international reputation whose deep interest and broad background in Western mythology and fairytales form the foundations of her prowess as an interpreter of Tarot.
She co-authored the best-selling Inner Child Cards: A Fairy Tale Tarot (published 1993 by Bear and Company), which illustrates the transformative relationship between fairytales and human development. The Inner Child Cards have been translated into eight languages. In 2001, Bear and Company published the companion book, The Inner Child Cards’ Workbook.
Isha is also co-author of The Triple Goddess Tarot, The Power of Flowers book/deck set and The Tarot of the Four Elements. A long-time writer for numerous periodicals, including Welcome to Planet Earth, Healing Currents, Planet Light worker and Children of the New Earth, she has also been a guest columnist for several newspapers and journals and has twice appeared on the New Dimensions Radio program.
The foundations of Isha’s work go back to challenging ‘out of body events’ and an ongoing mystical communion with Nature she experienced during childhood. Her work with the pioneering research of Robert Monroe and his book, Journeys Out of the Body, proved to be profoundly healing and triggered a lifetime of passionate exploration of metaphysics and mysticism.
While living in the Hawaiian Islands in her late teens and early twenties, Isha continued her exploration of Nature. During a backpacking trip on the island of Kauai in1975, she heard about the Findhorn Foundation community in Northern Scotland whose work—focused on a three-way cooperation between human beings, Nature, and the Divine—was soon to bring it international renown. Three months later a series of powerful synchronicities had her winging her way to Scotland where she lived and worked in the Foundation for three and a half years.
Isha’s work bridges countries and cultures and is deeply rooted in years of inner and outer journeying and the experiences of global connectedness they have provided. After three plus years of group work as CEO of Inner Sight, she has returned to her first loves of consulting, teaching and writing. You may browse her services here:
Isha lives in Eugene, Oregon where she raised three daughters and, in addition to her work, thrills in grandmother-hood.
