Read an excerpt from Natasha Sizlo's memoir, 'All Signs Point to Paris:' 'I had never been the kind of person who saw an astrologer. Without Philippe and soon to be without my father, I no longer knew for sure what kind of person I was'
I was forty-three years old, soon to turn forty-four, a single working mother renting a tiny yellow bungalow and barely scraping by in the Pacific Palisades, a quiet but expensive neighborhood in the west side of Los Angeles. After my divorce, I put almost my entire budget toward renting this house so I could be around the corner from my older sister, Tara. She helped with the childcare I could no longer afford.
Before I knew it, we were a thing. One night turned into one month, one month turned into one year, and one year turned into half a decade. “Two days ago,” I replied, dumbfounded, flashing back to four of the most pivotal moments in my life: almost drowning in a pool at age seven, being expelled from boarding school at fifteen, battling panic attacks and an awful drug addiction at twenty-one, and having an unexpected fight with severe postpartum depression at thirty. Floaty-scarved wingnut astrology lady or not, Stephanie Jourdan suddenly had my full attention.
For sixty minutes I listened in silence as Stephanie gave me great insight into my childhood, my family, my career, my life path. “Is there anything specific you would like to know before we end the session?” she asked. It’s hard to describe the tidal wave of emotion that washed over me at that moment. It wasn’t relief so much as a mixture of love, sadness, grief, and an immediate sense of letting go. Philippe was not my destiny. Our love story was not written in the stars. It was time to move on.
“Okay, great. Starting the clock now,” she began. She took a deep breath and rustled some papers. “November second, 1968, Paris … ready for this? He’s perfect for you!” she exclaimed, her voice bubbling with the pleasure of delivering good celestial news.“The time could make a difference,” Sheri continued, “but Mars is in the Seventh House, which is your husband. Venus is sixty degrees from the sun—that’s a long-term relationship or marriage.
