About me
Hui, aloha! My name is Belinda, also known by my Hawaiian name Kalani. A mixed Native Hawaiian and Native Mexican woman born and raised in the Bay area, I moved home to Hawai'i at 19, and have been here ever since! I am the creator and owner of Native Diaspora, a brand and podcast that weaves us together as a people. Native Diaspora's fabric stems from 3 words I created, Dekālānize, Remālanize, and Rewaitalize. Essentially undoing the system built by billionaires and elites, and reverting back to ‘āina and community, steering away from mass corporations and keeping sust’āinability and barter systems in mind.
Whether I cultivated it myself, it is the idea that if I’m not making it, I’m supporting my community and a small or local business that can. Select products are donated to frontline organizations and a family in Palestine. I’ve recently decided to expand my business and skills to one of my truest passions- astrology. Since I was a child, I was obsessed with the stars, spells, and readings. Kalani also means sky, heavenly, and spiritual, so I guess you can say it fits.

There are several forms and practices of astrology. My speciality is in Tropical also known as Western or Seasonal astrology based on the 12 zodiac signs. I do both whole sign and Placidus readings, though I am more comfortable with whole signs. I also incorporate some Hawaiian practices, though Hawaiian astrology wasn’t really practiced, I like to combine Hawaiian Birth signs and the mahina (moon) in my practices. Did you know if you were born at night, you’re more likely to be a night person? Or according to Hawaiian birth signs, if you were born during a certain month you were said to have a set of skills and certain personality traits? Have questions on romance, career, past lives, or more? Book a session today!
Birth Chart Testimonies
"My reading with Kalani was so intuitive. Let me first start by explaining that I am an energy healing practitioner and have studied many modalities. Given that information, my lense and view is different and experienced. Kalani went over several different aspects and I am feeling much more clarity. I resonated with many of the messages and knowledge of this reading. Kalani also discussed Mauli Ka Pō Mahina which was the Hawaiian Moon phase we are in, which is my birth moon. Every part of this reading resonated and what I mean by clarity is I am very self aware, and what came up during our reading was spot on!! I feel that Kalani is a beautiful human being with a soul that is rooted in ancestral knowledge and being a person who does ancestral healing work, this was the most powerfully aligned reading I have had thus far. Do it for you!!!"

"This reading absolutely blew me away. It was such a beautiful mix of astrological guidance, useful information, and deep intuitive knowing. I felt so seen the entire time and was truly shook with everything that was able to come through. So grateful for our time and for the brilliance that Kalani offers us. She is 1 of 1 and we are so lucky to be receiving her magic!!!"

"My reading with Belinda felt like receiving a lot of clarity through the power of knowledge. The reading was very aligned with my current situation and I was capable of making annotations that felt important for my personal journey. The way she mixed Hawaiian and astrology was very helpful to pull information from different sorts of knowledge. This is something that I liked a lot because it gave me a broader perspective on the meaning of the interpretation. I also enjoyed how much depth she gave on the 12 houses and the specific aspects that connected to my chart."
