Steph Koyfman is a writer and astrologer best known for her work as Lady Cazimi. She is an ardent student of archetypes and is a big fan of using language to poke at the layer of metaphor that encapsulates our experiences.

“Cazimi” is a (Latin, by way of Arabic) astrological term that refers to a planet being “in the heart of” the Sun. During a cazimi, we often experience a moment of searing clarity, naked truth, and empowered perception. This is the sort of experience she loves to incite through her work.
