About me

My name is Ximena Aguada but most people call me Mena. I was born under the sign of Cancer, on July 9, 1971, in Córdoba, Argentina. The Sagittarius ascendant marked my main character and my emotions the Moon in Aquarius.

In my childhood I was a sensitive, joyful, shy but very confident girl. I had fun playing alone, or with my sister, cousins and neighbors.

 

There were no mobil phones or Internet but there were many ways to have fun outdoors or at home. Even today I don’t know what does it mean to be bored, because if I’m not with others or doing something, there is nothing more pleasant to be with oneself. Perhaps it is due to I’ve never felt really alone.

 

The connection with other beings «alive» or «dead» was always for me something natural. Perceiving others and myself as energy.

Very young I was in some rock bands as a bass player. I started working when I was 17 years old, mostly in jobs that required to manage, organize, write letters in English, Spanish, to interpret with foreigners, meet others or giving lessons to children and adults, either in English, mathematics, plastic or computing. I also worked babysitting and taking care elderly people and cleaning houses.

I began studying astrology at age 18, with a group of people. A teacher taught us in a year some «secrets» of Cosmobiology, to make a natal chart, when there weren’t softwares like the present time and we had to do all the calculations manually, and to interpret a little aspects between planets and planets in signs and houses and in addition some exercises about Inner Work.

From there I continued studying self-taught through books and more books, practice and more practice. I made charts to anyone who came to hand, family, friends, cats, dogs … that way i was testing, making my stats, discovering things.

And so I was studying, learning and incorporating techniques. At the same time, I met again with Work ideas from Gurdjieff through his books and later through E.J. Gold and Work-Study groups online and in live.

Since very young I was interested in literature, philosophy, psychology and esotericism in general, I incorporated a little of it all over the years.

I started some college careers and where I spent more time was Librarianship, which gave me some interesting work outputs.

I studied English since I was little. I lived and worked for a while in Ushuaia, perform different jobs, I met people from other countries. Then Internet became accessible and I could also connect with other people in different parts of the world. Until one day it occurred to me that I would spend holidays abroad, visiting friends who knew from Internet through working groups, friends in astrology, philosophy, and ended up traveling to Spain.

I did not know then that this trip would change my life, I met again with my soulmate of many incarnations … and yes, I stayed and after many adventures and misadventures, right now I’m married I have 2 beautiful children, 2 beautiful cats and I am dedicated like always to various things like the multitasking printers…

It’s been more than 30 years with astrology. One day the friends gave me the push to start charging for my job and since then I work professionally on it, combined with being a mother and wife 24/7 hours a day, and other activities such as layout, designing books, make orthotypographic corrections and translations.
