“My darling girl, being normal is not necessarily a virtue? It Rather denotes a lack of courage!”
The Archetype of a Witch is to my greatest pleasure changing… For years a Witch would be seen as a hag, a woman with warts, green skin, cackling laugh, seen to curse all who crossed her path, flies around at the strike of midnight all in all a devil worshiper and freak of nature.
Symbolically a thing to not aspire to be, a disgrace, hideous and bad thing.
When in actual fact looking back to the Witch trials the women condemned of witchery were the outcasts of society, the healers, the loners, the forward thinkers, those who were independent and not of the norms.
In a time such as then, I guess it was not seen of a woman to exhibit such ways, to speak her mind, to be an individual was something to be feared because it was different... Women for centuries have been oppressed, unempowered and suppressed, finally we are reaching a time where the Witch is something to be proud of and aspired to be.
To be independent, different, fierce, and to hold power within your own hands. To be a person whose identity is her own and to think for oneself.
There is a little witch inside all of us. . . Embrace all that makes you unique and create magic wherever you go.
Tonight is all Hallows Eve the day before Día de los Muertos and two days before All Souls Day!
Light your Jack O'Lantern to ward off evil spirits on Samhain as it’s a time where the veil between worlds collide - The dead is said to return back and so that is why we dress up on Halloween to trick the spirits aha ha. Any who Just light a Pumpkin tonight and allow the candle to burn out on its own never blow it out it’s meant to be an open invitation for any spirit to enter the home or something like that =) It also is a way of guiding your ancestors home.
Then the 1st and the 2nd is a time to remember those who came before us, remembering those who have passed over keeps a little piece of them alive. I guess you can look at the 31st as the welcoming home celebration, the 1st to share stories and the 2nd to say goodbye again… It’s also a pagan holiday like that of the new year, where we celebrate all that we have achieved this year so far and all that we put forward for the year ahead.
Okay I’m off now to do some witchy stuff - Happy Halloween my fellow witches!! X x x

I was born on March 13th 1989, and I had came into this world with some unusual gifts. Ever since i was a little girl i made friends with people i believe to be there, because they was as real as you and me are, it wasn’t until nursery school that i quickly realized that the ‘’normal’’ little girl or boy my age couldn’t see them… Adults certainly couldn’t. They ‘’spirits’’ did not appear to me as ghosts, they did not look scary and they was as solid and as tangible as everything else. I remember a little girl telling me that soon they will go away because you have to make real friends or the teacher will tell your parents.
You see i found comfort in being on my own, talking to animals than the ‘’real’’ people they just didn't see things like i did, so i tried my best to keep my friends a secret, until eventually they had to leave. I used to collect spiders, and spent a lot of my time outside playing.
When i was about 8 my dad asked me what i wanted to be when i grew up, and without a second thought i said ‘’angel’’. Straight away my father said that i can only be an Angel when i die and go to heaven and i need to think about something else i can do in this life. So i said well i guess i’ll be a Witch then, it was clear by the look on my fathers face he didn’t understand me, but for one of the very few times my dad asked me why. I said i’d like to be able to cast spells, change the world and help people get everything they want in life (well along those lines more or less). My dad said that i can not be a witch because they do not exist and you can’t make money being a witch… I began to argue a short while and that was the end of that.
My spiritual encounters continued, my mind just filled with more and more questions, the universe was
confusing and i knew there was more. I was that annoying child who was forever asking question after question. One day my father was trying to explain about life and death because i was so fascinated and confused by it… I wasn’t happy with the answer i had recieved so i badgered on a while, until he asked me what i think it is. I said we are being controlled by aliens and we are there puppets in a computer game, everything out there is controling us. My dad was stunned and same again that was the end of that.
I remember an incident that happened when i was around 7 or 8 maybe younger than that, that would take place place when i go round my babysitter's house. There was always a jamaican man in the kitchen, he had white hair, trousers held up with braces and an old style shirt. He would sit for hours and hours talking to me, sharing his wisdom on life, and i would talk with him also. It would be so happy at the thought that someone wanted to talk to me and made time for me. The thing was he would only appear when i was on my own. My sitter would come in and ask who i’m talking to and i would say, his name has gone from my memory, but soon as she would go he would come back in. It didn’t occur to me that he was a spirit, because he was as real as you or me and there was nothing scary or unusual about him. But then one day he told me something about the sitter and i told her, she got so spooked out that after that she told my nan that she would no longer be able to babysit for me, my brother and sister. She never gave them a reason and that was that. It was not until many years later that i asked about the man that i soon realized he was of this world.
In 2002, I brought my first ever Gypsy Tarot Cards, the connection with the spiritual side of life pulled me in. I was quite the natural with my cards, predicting things that happened in the past (way before my time), things that were going on in the present and then in the future. I started by reading for family and friends of the family, I received some brilliant feedback, that what i was saying was very much true or later came true.
I read for two of my Aunts one afternoon when i had visited my Nan's one weekend. My Nan really did not like the fact i was into such things, but to begin with she was adamant that it was a phase, and that nothing i was going to say would be true they are just some cards with strange pictures on them. But as soon as i began they became very quiet, they were stunned, shocked yet amazed by what i was saying and soon enough what i had predicted for the future then soon had come to pass. My Nan was so angry by what i was saying and was sure it was the work of the devil. She told me to stop playing with those cards because they was doing nothing but bad evil things.
It was clear that there would always be people that did not understand me, my gifts or my abilities… In fact i’m pretty sure i spooked a lot of people out by what i was telling them, private things that nobody knew, secrets i had revealed, and predicting things that soon would happen.
I didn’t get why people thought they were so bad, they was just cards, and i was helping people, i was able to tap into and connect with them, comforting them and advising them. I was able to relate and ease peoples pain, show them what’s to come on there journey. Help people who had lost hope, guide people on decisions they need to make, show them opportunities that are coming there way. Helping them fulfil their life purpose. One thing i found in common is that there are a lot of people who feel alone, they feel like people don’t truly understand them, because they have not experienced what they have, and then i gently shine the light on there darkest shadows and heal them, i heal people without even meaning to just by understanding the persons emotional body. When you can touch someone from within and heal them its the most amazing feeling in the world, they completely transform, some quicker than others, but soon as you heal a piece of them inside their reality shifts and heals also. Its Magic.
From 2002 - 2008 i Kept what i did only between close friends and family, i still read for people and i kept getting asked to do more, the feedback was great! But i began my journey of research and studying all things otherworldly, such as, Astrology, Tarot, palmistry, runes, magic you name it i was intrigued by it, the fascination still to this day draws me in. After school and college was over i slowly but surely came out of the closet ‘’the witches broom closet’’. The response was mixed but better than i expected, it took me to predict something for people to believe but i did, i turnt a lot of people into believing that this ‘’stuff’’ is very real.
I began offering readings to work colleagues, customers, friends, friends or friends, family of friends and it grew and grew and i loved it!!! It was so warming to be able to help people in this way, in my spiritual way and by being just me. I have never felt more at ease than when i’m giving a spiritual reading, easing people, comforting and guiding them by embracing my gifts and having a sense of allowance to being just who i am. Spirituality comes so naturally to me and it creates this huge spark in my life.
In 2011 i took it to the next level, i wanted to reach out to more people, put myself out there and reach a wider audience. I always knew that this was my greatest passion and i had this dream of traveling the world, or being able to connect with people from different cultures doing something spiritual. In 2012 to prove it to myself i took a Tarot Course, and to my delight i didn’t learn a great deal, but it did boost my confidence a whole lot. I was a natural and that’s something i had known all along. I did however learn about the legal side of providing a spiritual service, that was something i had not known up until i took the course. To pass the course i had to read for 3 people , that of which were close friends of the Tarot Teacher holding the course. I read for Courses leaders ex partner and good friend, I read for a psychic medium and another dear friend of the course leader. I passed with flying colours, in fact her ex partner told me that i had given him a far better reading than the Course Leader had given him, which really boosted my confidence.
So here i am now 2014, running a successful online spiritual service touching people from all walks of life. This is just the beginning of what to come on my journey, and I believe venturing on to youtube will enable me to connect with more like minded people, sharing and exchanging stories with all that crosses my path...

Sharing my insights and teaching what i know on how to tap into your psychic abilities, how to enhance your life, talking about spiritual subjects, the strange and unexplained, please subscribe to my Youtube Channel and other social networks and join me on my journey for many, many years to come
Tarot has been around for at least
six centuries now, it’s hard to say exactly where Tarot came from as there are
no written documentation confirming dates. However there are many myths saying
that Tarot originated from ancient Egypt and another myth claiming that the Gypsies
brought Tarot to Europe.
Tarot for centuries has been used to
solve your most burning questions or to catch a glimpse into the future or that
of the recent past. Sceptics argue the fact that a set of cards with obscure
pictures, could ever possibly tell us anything about our lives. There are a lot
of misconceptions spread around by superstitious and religious people who shy
away from Tarot in fear. They say that the cards are evil and that demonic
entities will curse you or doom your life. The honest truth is that they are
just cards and on their own hold no real power.
So we have discovered that the cards
are not supernatural and controlled by evil spirits, they are used as a
divination tool. Like with any tool, they are only as good as the skilled
person wielding them.
About my readings
I have been reading cards since I was
Thirteen years old, first for family and friends, then for friends of friends
and family friends, and so the word spread…’’It runs in the family’’. I
completely understand the stigma that comes with this line of work, and so I
make it top priority that the client understands fully what tarot is, how it
works and also the new law legislation implemented by the government, that all
spiritual workers now have to inform clients. When booking or paying online you
will receive this ‘’disclaimer’’.
I like to make YOU, the client feel
at ease before beginning anything, as the more relaxed, calm and open you are
the more you will gain from the reading. I also only read for people genuinely
intrigued, or open to the possibility of what tarot and spiritual readings can
offer, as I have out grown the need to feel like I have to prove anything, it
goes without saying the reading speaks for itself.
There nothing wrong with being skeptical,
belongs your open minded tarot will never seize to amaze you.
Let me explain further…
So once we have one through the
essentials, payment has been made, and we have discussed how it is that you
came for a reading, what it is you may be interested to know… We begin the
reading.
Now bear in mind that the cards will
show you whatever it is that they feel you should know – all for the higher
good of course. They will only tell me the things that you need to know, they
will clarify things that have happened in the past and work up to the future.
People often worry about getting bad cards, but in all honesty there is always
something positive to come out… & always guidance and advice for you follow
so the bad, doesn’t end up bad. But of course it’s your life, your choices to
make, your lessons to learn… I am here to listen and guide you onto the right
path… the happy path!
So here I am, your spiritual guru, counsellor
or witch – whatever you like to call me!
I’m not a professional psychiatrist,
or medical doctor… But in all honesty I believe healing is not cured by taking
pills, not to say that modern medicine is not good I just feel it’s used
without fully understanding what’s making the patient ill. I feel it’s
impersonal and I have yet to find a good doctor and so always use a more
holistic approach to health (that’s not to say it’s for everyone). We get ill, discouraged
by a range of physical, emotional and spiritual strains on the body and mind.
But this is an entire other subject. What I’m trying to say is, think out side
the box, listen to your body, heart and mind… Stuck in a difficult
relationship, keep getting ill, want that job you always dreamed of… tarot will
help you but it’s you that has to make the choice, and step into the life you
long for.
"Remember those that do not believe in
magic… never find it! It’s good to dream! "
How I do online Readings
With an on-line reading, I tune into you
by photograph and using your date of birth. With your payment you are giving me consent, allowing
me to connect with you. I then draw cards, with any questions that you may want
to know about. Please do bare in mind that the cards will tell me what they
feel you need to know, they will never tell me anything that you cannot handle. And so, I will guide and prepare you
for what’s to come… Please do check out my feedback on my Facebook page… and
all links can be found on my website. I truly hope I can help you like i have helped so many others
