About My Writing & Scholarship
​
​
My writings range from academic & scholarly articles to web journals, experimental forms of poetry and the content I'm building here on Evolutionary & Archetypal Astrology & the Healing Arts. I am currently working on a book about Pluto & Evolutionary Astrology for a new paradigm of awakening & healing.
Below are just a few of my scholarly writings if you are interested in exploring my work, most of which is focused in trauma, poetry & healing. You can also follow me on Instagram (@madronaspulse) for daily writings/reflections based in astrology or check out my Youtube Channel where I've begun sharing on Astrology for Healing!

"This extraordinary work of artistry is a profound call to listen to the wisdom of bodies – to reclaim the felt awareness of embodied rhythms, embodied knowing. Through elegant prose, poetry, art and scholarly engagement, Gildea challenges the paradigms of colonial patriarchy and summons readers to a journey of deep listening to the watery cycles, rhythms and wounds of our own bodies and that of the earth. The Poetry of Belonging is one of those rare books that invites readers to slow down and to savour, to read and re-read as the wisdom of its pages transforms us from within." ~Pamela R. McCarroll, Jane and Geoffrey Martin Chair in Practical Theology
