The Owner and Founder

I had a realization one day that I wanted to enjoy life more. To accomplish that I needed to work for myself, and with elements I'm truly passionate about. Near the same time, I was searching for unique and affordable zodiac jewelry. I was having a little trouble. It finally clicked, I have decades of expertise in astrology, tarot, and crystals. A background in business, design, and artistry. I’ll open a business dedicated to reasonably priced, high quality, personalized, and rare jewelry. I will call it Retrograde Upcycle.

Mission and Policies

Reuse and Recycle

We incorporate as many repaired, repurposed, and redesigned materials as possible, while maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship. All packaging and boxes are recycled, reused or from businesses no longer using them. While practicing ethical disposal methods and operations.

Women owned and Operated

Becoming a part of the ever growing female business owners club, it is exciting to know I'm doing my part to help balance the scales. While encouraging and inspiring not only other women, but anyone who feels running their own company will bring them closer to their most authentic selves.

Self Empowerment

Custom Orders

The custom made collection showcases the unique qualities of your birth chart in several handmade and hand stamped metal designs.

If you know the signs and degrees you would like to have stamped on your custom pieces, please include them. If not please provide your date of birth, birth time, city, state, and country where you were born. Which are needed to correctly calculate your chart. (Your information will NOT be used for any other purposes. 

What is The Big Three

Many people are familiar with their Sun Sign, but personal astrology encompasses much more. In addition to the Sun's position in a specific constellation at your birth, the Moon and all the planets were also aligned in certain constellations. The most significant aspects of your chart are often referred to as "The Big Three," which includes your Sun Sign, Moon Sign, and Rising Sign, or Ascendant. The Rising Sign represents the constellation that was rising on the eastern horizon at the exact moment you were born, and it plays a crucial role in shaping your entire astrological profile. To ensure the accuracy of your birth chart and the calculation of your Ascendant, knowing your precise birth time and location is essential.

  • The Process

    Whether it's metal stamping, engraving, hand setting stones, beading, wire wrapping, crystal corresponding or designing aesthetically beautiful jewelry, each piece is meticulously handcrafted with special attention to detail, quality and craftsmanship.

    Retrograde Upcycle uses natural gemstones and crystals from private collections, salvaged gemstones and new crystals and other natural pieces. We use several methods to authenticate the genuineness of our gemstones and crystals. To provide you with the most accurate, affordable and beautiful jewelry to express yourself!

  • Why Limited Edition?

    While adding uniqueness and rarity, we salvage re-imagine and fix broken jewelry, and other neglected supplies and pieces. Which most likely would never be used again or thrown out. Along with using high quality crystals, beads, and metals, using these other non traditional materials makes some collections very difficult if not impossible to recreate.
