Elizabeth Rose Campbell was a noted writer, astrologer and video-grapher. She died of cancer on December 15, 2004 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina at the age of 52.

In 1975, Elizabeth received her B.A. in Studio Art and Journalism from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. After graduation, she was an Editorial Assistant for the Southern Economic Journal in Chapel Hill and in 1977 she became the Assistant Editor of The Sun: A Magazine of Ideas.

In 1982, Elizabeth joined the Omega Institute of Holistic Studies in Rhinebeck, New York and became their Director of Marketing and a Program Coordinator. However, it was while Elizabeth lived in Chapel Hill that she became interested in Astrology and had been an astrologer since 1984. She credited this interest in Astrology to leading her to a full-time profession and the publication of her book, Intuitive Astrology : How to Follow Your Best Instincts, published by Random House in 2003. She was also the first-in-house astrologer to practice at the Institute from 1991 and continued to do so until 1997.

Elizabeth continually worked on her filmmaking and writing. In 1996, as a videographer she won a PBS award for “Pulses” her video on the creative instinct. Her nonfiction was also published in several publications including the anthology, Jo’s Girls, by Beacon Press in 1997.

BIRTH AND DEATH DATA: Elizabeth's close friend, Amanda Owen, quotes her birth data: March 7, 1952, 11:35 AM/EST. Rocky Mount, North Carolina. However, Elizabeth's obituaries show Weldon, North Carolina as her birth place. She died of cancer on the early morning hours of December 15, 2004 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

A quote from Elizabeth's obituary that was published in the Chapel Hills News on December 19, 2004:  "A native of Weldon, she graduated from Weldon
High School in 1970."  The hospital where Elizabeth was born was located in Rocky Mount.

A TRIBUTE FROM Janet StraightArrow:

Elizabeth Rose Campbell spoke your astrological chart like a story with twelve chapters.  This wonderful way of working brought you into the reading whether you knew astrology or not, it was fun and personal and real.  Your chart is the book of you. And she helped you learn to read and understand the possibilities of you and your life journey in your own book.  She was so very connected to spirit in her readings that the most profound information always came through.

We were born the same year and we shared many passages. 1952 was such a turn key year for everyone in our culture.  Elizabeth added to my understanding of myself and my life purpose in ways that helped me to take action. She is very appreciated and missed.

 

 

 I am shocked to have googled Elizabeth Rose's name to find out that  she had died.  Elizabeth was a central support person for me during  my years at Omega as a Healing Touch Practitioner.  She inspired me  to see it all as positive, and to help me to trust the fact that I  was not only talented, but destined to arise above the norm.  I was  looking her up to let her know that my Healing Touch for Babies  workshops were finally becoming frequent and profound.  I wanted to  let her know how much she helped.  So dear one, as you look down,  know that there has always been deep gratitude to you for grounding  me in my own unique authentic self, especially during the painful  wild ride to get there.  See you on the other side.

Hello, Well, this is strange.  I've recently pulled Elizabeth' book "Intuitive Astrology" off the bookshelf and begun to review her approach to the birthchart.  I decided to look up her website (it's 2:00 in the morning & I couldn't sleep) wondering if she does personal readings.  Needless to say, I was shocked to discover that she had passed three years ago.  A sadness for her loss at such a young age prevails.  Blessings on her and all who know her personally and all of us who have been touched by her in any way.  What a lovely picture of her on the memorial.  Thanks for doing this.

Sincerely,

Christine O'Brien
