We are honoring the life of Lilly Roddy, Houston’s Renowned Astrologer. She was so much more than an astrologer and counselor. She was a steadfast member of the Houston Community in her support for the LGBTQ members. She lived her life through courage and lifted so many people to find their own voice. Her wit was infectious and made so many serious situations lighter by her very presence. Her reach was far and wide; beyond Houston. She was a counselor to individuals, corporations, and a long time teacher to so many astrologers. Her wisdom was experienced through multiple perspectives and she knew how to find the calm amidst the storm. Her gift will ride with all of us in our journey’s forward and all we have to do is look up in the sky to see her STAR SHINING BRIGHT! If you wish to celebrate Lilly then please join us for this event. And please hold her surviving partner Yvonne Carroll close to your heart.L. Coble
