About Kelsie Hammitt, LAc, LMT, and Professionl Astrologer
Welcome to Alchemy Astrology! Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Kelsie Hammitt and I am a practicing astrologer. I was born under the sun of Aquarius, Moon of Libra, and horizon of Virgo. In addition to practicing Astrology, I'm also a practicing Acupuncturist and Chinese Herbalist in SW Portland. Of all the lineages I have studied and practiced, Chinese Medicine and Western Astrology stand as the two pillars of my work and are my greatest passions in life. Both of these modalities offer a profound understanding of the body in relationship to the cosmos, giving language and rhythm to the experiences I find myself, and my patients, navigating through each day.
I owe my deep love for these traditions to my dear and later teacher, Bill Frazier, who offered me the wisdom of his 55 years of study and practice and has left me with our shared dream of integrating these two systems within the treatment space. Astrology has served me personally as a tool to do deep introspective work and it is an extreme blessing to offer helpful reflections to others. I believe that when we have the courage to learn about ourselves through the lens of astrology, we have the power and insight to live more intentionally, gracefully, and peacefully. It is a great passion of mine to integrate and interweave the teachings between Western Astrology and Ancient Chinese Medicine. I find great joy being able to offer both of these rich modalities in session with my patients and clients.
Outside of the treatment space, I am married to the love of my life, my wife, Elena. Together, we have built an incredible life that continually nourishes me and fills me with gratitude. As a queer woman, I feel deeply proud of the love and life we share. Our home is joyfully filled with our two small pups, Milo and Copper, and two very content felines, Penelope and Nahla, who rule the couch as if it were their throne. I have family in both the Southwest and the Midwest, and I’m passionate about traveling to places rich in history and culture, journeys that remind me, and those I work alongside, of the beauty of being fully alive and privileged enough to embrace it with an open heart. I cherish the many dear friendships in my life and find the relationships I share with my patients to be among the most nourishing of all.
I’d love to meet you and be of support to you and your journey that continues to unfold.

Education:
I graduated from the National University of Natural Medicine in June 2025 with my Master's Degree in Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, and a specialization in Chinese Herbal Medicine. My astrological education has been deeply shaped by focused study and mentorship with the late Bill Frazier, L.Ac., in Aurora, Oregon. I have also studied Medical Astrology with Kira Sutherland, a Naturopath based in Australia, and Experiential Astrology with Jason Holley, a practicing astrologer of thirty-five years and psychotherapist of eighteen.
Following Bill Frazier’s passing in July 2024, I have continued my studies primarily with Jason Holley and am currently under mentorship with him from November 2025 through June 2027. This mentorship allows me to integrate the hands-on modalities of experiential astrology into my clinical work, bridging astrological insight with the somatic awareness cultivated in the treatment space.
Alchemy Astrology Testimonials
"Kelsie is an amazing astrologer! She has a way of delivering her wisdom that made me feel so open, calm and receptive. I gained so much insight through Kelsie’s reading, and she provided me with ideas for ways that I can harmonize the energies in my chart. I left the reading with a greater sense of self-appreciation and self-understanding and a higher perspective about some of the more difficult aspects and cycles I’m moving through.
"Kelsie knows her art and communicates it in a way that is straightforward and inspiring. It’s clear that she is deeply in touch with the roots of this science, beautifully expressing the essence of what a chart can tell us about interacting with our life. She has received her teachings through the oral transmission of her mentor Bill, which is a rare thing to find in this field yet holds true to ancient tradition. Her reading solidified what I was ready to accept about repeating patterns in my life and gave me permission to utilize what I am here to do in this world. Kelsie is your cheerleader. I would recommend a reading to anyone."

"What a gift to work with Kelsie and learn about the nuances of my chart and how I can be better supported in my path. I loved the way she walked me through visually so that I can interpret the chart in a way that is relevant for my life. It was clear to me that Kelsie really took the time to study my chart so that she could offer deeper insight in the relationships at play. I highly recommend Alchemy Astrology for those new to astrology, like me, and folks looking for a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the planetary aspects impacting them."
"I so enjoyed my time with Kelsie during my natal chart reading. I am a total newbie to pretty much all aspects of astrology and I was a bit intimidated for the first minute and then Kelsie put me immediately at ease. The information Kelsie shared has made a truly significant impact on me and I want to learn more about astrology and how it impacts my life. Her insights in regards to my areas of strengths, my areas that I might struggle, and how to be the best version of myself was priceless. I loved my time spent with Kelsie and look forward to many more interactions with her – the sky is the limit on my new insights – thank you Kelsie!!"

"I reached out to Kelsie asking a simple question, and she went above and beyond with her answer. I knew absolutely nothing about astrology and after 30 minutes with her I walked away understanding so much more than I thought I would. She took the time to fully explain every question I had, and elaborated on everything without me asking her to. I sent her information to friends immediately after our call — I truly cannot recommend her enough."
“Learning about what the stars had to tell me was super interesting. Especially doing this with Kelsie was such a joy. Her passion for this art really shines through. She presents the information in a clear and nuanced way from a place of wisdom. It definitely gave me some more insight into my life and the direction I want to take moving forward. I would highly recommend!”
