Root to rise. Ground to expand.
Become your truest self to change the world.
Hearth & Spiral is a space devoted to grounded growth, cyclical wisdom, and the slow work of becoming who you truly are. Here, we weave together astrology, human design, embodiment, breath, and the creative process into practices that support real, sustainable change.
I’m Alison Dale, founder of Hearth & Spiral.
Hearth & Spiral is a sweet child of mine, bringing together practices that have saved my life… over and over again. After finding myself caught up in the pressurized race of what I thought I should be doing for far too long, it took a series of major rug-pull moments and not-so-fun transformational crises to wake me up and help me find my way back home.
As I child, I spent most of my time playing in the dirt and gazing at the stars, moving my body in play, singing and breathing deep, making art and creating new worlds from my imagination. To my surprise, these were the same practices that found me again when I thought all else was lost. Together, they have helped me strip away the “shoulds”, connect with my true self, and find deep belonging in the world around me.
I’m excited to share with you some of these practices, these wisdoms, that are your birthright: your place amongst the stars, your body’s natural intelligence, and the way that the earth holds you close when you let her.
Today, I am passionate about helping people realize their innate potential for presence, creativity and abundance in their lives in times of personal and global transformation. My work combines somatic practices (breathwork, voice & nervous system balancing), diviniation practices (astrology, human design & the I’ching) and the creative process.
My goal is to create spaces where individuals can connect with the wisdom of their bodies, exercise their creative muscles, and find true belonging within their worlds and the larger universe.
When you’re feeling lost, there are many paths that can guide you back home. Let’s work together and see which one helps you feel the most free, the most connected, and the most yourself. From there, you can begin to co-create the life, and world, that you’ve always dreamed is possible.

Alison is such an amazing astrologer. She is able to make complex concepts so accessible, practical and usable. I also appreciate how she pairs intuition, wisdom and genuine care with her detailed knowledge base and technical mind!

For those of you who, like me, appreciate someone who can skillfully weave together several archetypal modalities to make sense of our lives and our world, I highly recommend Alison Dale and her podcast. I have felt very blessed and enriched by what she offers.
-Bryan
If you aren’t following Alison Dale’s work, you should. She combines Astrology, Human Design, the I’Ching, the Gene Keys, and a myriad of other esoteric practices in an approachable and digestible way that gives such a holistic and fascinating perspective on the cycles of life. She is also a fabulous breathwork practitioner and brings this into her work.

Work with me to help strip off your conditioned layers of should and get in touch with your soul's most authentic aspirations and desires.
Together, we can discover pathways to remember:
How to attune to the natural world around you (plants, seasons, planets, people),
How to tune the incredible instruments that exist within you (your breath, your voice, your nervous system),
How to cultivate practices (that you can return to again and again) to help overcome obstacles, move through major life transitions, and learn to love yourself for exactly who you are.
All that you touch
You Change.
All that you Change
Changes you.
The only lasting truth
Is Change.
God
Is Change.
