Tamara McLellan:
Astrology, Classes & Readings
Tamarais a lionhearted woman, mother, sister and daughter, living in the beautiful Okanagan.
She works as an astrology + meditation guide weaving into her work all the ways that nature is part of who we are. She has taught workshops on mountain tops about what it means to live courageously and leads classes and day retreats in her hometown of Lake Country, BC as well as online here.
She has raised thousands of dollars and spent innumerable hours fundraising and working with causes such as women empowerment, girls education and nature stewardship organizations. In 2019, Tamara did a barefoot TEDx talk for Kelowna Women to stay connected to her message. Shortly after, she organized the First Canadian Summit on Climate Action in Food Systems with her co-creator Brenda Tjaden. In 2020, she built a tiny offgrid cabin by hand and hammer. She has a big spirit and (hopefully) a light touch.
Tamara has the highest level of respect for those that work in reverence to the land and all living things. Her big message is to remember the interconnection we weave with everything around us and to live our lives so that each breath has meaning: to live our lives so that we are fully alive.
She recently published her first book: The Shark & The Sunshine.
Life is always whispering. Lean in.
Events: Astrology + Self Marriage
Celestial Feasts with the Okanagan Table
In person astrology:
Monthly Astrological Dinners with the Okanagan Table. Join us here.
A curated dining experience that explores the unique flavours, textures, and energies associated with each of the 12 sun signs. Each dinner in the series is a multi-sensory journey, designed to reflect the sun sign’s dominant element (fire, earth, air, water), its ruling planet, and its archetypal characteristics.
Led by moi, each evening will include a discussion of the featured sun sign—its mythology, symbolism, and culinary connections.
This celestial feast will be crafted by award-winning Chef Rod Butters, with each menu designed to embody the unique energy of the featured sign. Complementing the experience, expertly curated beverage pairings by Audrey Surrao will reflect the astrological themes and elemental force at play. Both the food and drinks are carefully aligned with the essence of each sign, creating a truly immersive and cosmic dining experience.
Self Marriage: A Ceremonial Journey
The next: Self Marriage Ceremonial Journey is March 2026. Perfect timing as we prepare to enter the biggest Aries season we’ve ever seen!
What is the Inner Union Ceremonial Journey?
Self Marriage brings us home to ourselves in a way that nothing else can. This Inner Union journey is a profound ritual and rite of passage where we anchor into the most important relationship we will ever have in this life…with that human in the mirror. With that soul in your eyes. With you.
I teach online classes that will feel like church. These walk us through the ancient mystery school teachings around inner union and will include meditations and exercises to embody the deepest parts of ourselves. The class series will set you up for a ceremony that is yours and yours alone. The ceremony is a commitment to your wholeness.
It's the heiros gamos "the sacred marriage within".
With my work, I marry a lot of people and it's come up for me that not everyone is committed to their Inner God. They are ready to commit to the other Outer God, the Other, the Lover, but not everyone has that big place inside of them that is unshakeable.
When we move through the ritual of Self Marriage, we invite ourselves to the table. A L L O F U S. And we say to Her, ALL OF YOU IS WELCOME HERE and you don't need something outside of you to get you because I G O T Y O U. period.
We engage in self leadership, self validation and take self responsibility.
and through this art, we create an unshakeable inner relationship that ultimately makes EVERY RELATIONSHIP WE HAVE BETTER.
It takes back our projections from all others and sources from our inner well. This is good for you to do if you are single, married or anything in between.
Photos below from our various sessions at She is Wild Fest and in Lake Country where 100+ women were READY to re-commit to self.

TAMARA’S BACKGROUND
Tamara is a writer, storyteller, astrologer and life celebrant. She also has trained as a Death Doula, a psychopomp-in-training. As a family historian and astrologer, she works to heal ancestral storylines by illuminating family patterns.
My mission is to celebrate our wildness within and help people show up for the entire range of being ALIVE, right to the moment we die.
This includes grief, fear, anger and rage right alongside love, joy and hope. This, to feel the whole gamut of emotions, is soul activism. When we come home to ourselves, it is reflected in everything around us and creates a wealthy inner spirit that is incomparable to anything else.
My background:
I grew up moving all over the Prairies and in 2009 I started solo travelling to countries like South Africa, India, Central America to do volunteer work. In 2016, I completed an integral and deep 200 hour training that brought me into a daily practice of Spirit. I dived deeeep into yoga nidra and Trauma-informed yoga and then spent a week immersed in a yurt in Ontario, for hours of ancient quantum practices of Yoga Nidra with Jana Roemer. I’ve co-created with nature for as long as I can remember and have taken courses in Wildcrafting Basics, Wildcrafting by Design and Yasei Shinrin Yoku (Wild Forest Bathing or immersing in nature as therapy) with Don Elzer of the Wildcraft Forest School. My son and I spent a week at the Art of Mentoring wilderness training on Salt Spring Island and I later worked with the Wisdom of the Earth School there. I’ve studied Dreamwork with Toko-pa Turner, End-of-Life doula training at the Douglas College and Griefwork with Josea Crossley. I have taken countless Astrology classes with teachers like Chani Nicolas, Jana Roemer, Linda Berry, Divine Harmony, Gemini Brett and more. In 2020, I built, by hand, an off-grid cabin. I self represented in Supreme Court. I went to the Underworld and back to become a homeowner with Habitat for Humanity. I have faced the wretched and the glorious within me. I teach and do readings from that full scope of living.

I will forever advocate for the wild spaces that we keep within ourselves because that is our sovereignty, the ultimate purpose, the point of why we are here on this little strange and magical home called earth. To find our wildness, buried deep within. To free it and to free all others in the process.
From my endless heart to yours,
Tamara
