About Anastasia
The Journey of a Mystic
Some say I am foremost a Mystic because I walk, talk, live and work within the Spirit world, the elements of nature, with the dead and ancestors, Saints, Goddess, God, and most importantly, with your higher self when holding a session with you.
While my tribe humorously refers to me as a good Irish Catholic New Orleans Witch, I suspect the reason why they do refer to me as that is because of my unconventional passionate creative perspectives. I "see" very differently than most based from my combined life experiences and formal education.
With such a wealth of knowledge to draw from, I am able to guide and empower you like a beacon of light on the shoreline within the storm or calm waters, soulshining bright within the shadows as you obtain that unique clarity you require.
Do not misunderstand when I say I am NOT here to save you, as I do not do that. However I will aide in uplifting your spirit and heart while empowering you to live your highest and greatest good. I am right along side you like a pillar of strength and got you with no worries. I strongly believe that by having such loyal support, you can make good enlightened educated choices with successful results of meeting your objectives and reaching for the next objective(s) in your sights. I know I did when my mentors were there for me.
I will assist you with navigating your personal journey. We accomplish this through the collaboration of a master mind alliance, hard work, tenacity, intuitive mindful practices that stay with you so when you fall out of rhythm, you can get back into harmony by realize and remenber that when, or if a set back or failure does pop up, I am still around to reflect and remind you, it really is just a redirection saying that is not the way, find another, it is there. I hold a safe sacred loving space with a passionate compationate heartfelt connection that is non judgemental, discrete and respectful with you, therefore makes it possible for you being genuinely you in your evolution and awakening.
I have humbly dedicated my life to the art of being of service to/for others in the way of intuitive guidance and mentoring with a focus on empowerment and heart centered authenticity. What I do is not "just intuitively reading tarot cards or energy work," it goes soul deep, it transforms, even transcends because it is my realm of genus. It is my purpose.
I, Anastasia, Mystic of New Orleans, invite you to join me in discovering your true self.
Be happy. Be love.
Even if it gets messy.
It WILL be worth it.
Roots
They say I entered this life through the caul (the veil), being a breach birth here in Uptown New Orleans on Prytania Street. I was reared in this beautiful Scorpio mystical city of New Orleans or Bulbancha (New Orleans real name) and an island at the mouth of the majestic Mississippi River called Pilottown.
With such a backdrop that is well known for being deeply steeped within culture and magic, this provided me with priceless opportunities in which to develop my abilities throughout my life thus far. New Orleans has provided such diverse situations, lessons, experiences and guidance for me as an intuitive Psychic, as a Medium, as a Mother, Grandmother, Wife, friend, and just as a spiritual soul in gereral adding to my overall foundation. I have and continue to develop, refined, honed in and share these experiences, even if some are/were misadventures sometimes, either way it seems you still benefit someway, somehow. Very true that I have no regrets because all these experiences are priceless.
I strongly believe in the magic of love, the "I am," and that is where everyone belongs.
My family has roots reaching back into the late 1700's here in Bulbancha with my father's side being a big part of establishing the port of Orleans.
My "abilities" called me.....not the other way around. I am still not sure if this is a blessing or curse. Add in my fascination with the stars and planets, quantum science, music, art and storytelling and rebeling....... welllllll ...... my family had hoped in my youth with such a broad inquisitive nature, that I was going to just "out grow these creative eccentric ways" which ended up reflecting my abilities of the many different "clairs," of the mystical unknown. Soooo Nope. That did not happen. Nahhhhh.... not a chance....
My abilities only grew stronger and more developed as I became older in my teens. In my 30's I did my best to ignore them over the decades. However quickly and sometimes harshly learned even with the "learning curves" that ignoring the signs, these "gifts" or abilities" was not and is not, a wise choice to make.
It is said you can take the Duchess out of New Orleans,
however the New Orleans never leaves the Duchess
Even after college as I entered into the nonprofit and entertainment sectors for many decades to no avail, I got the message loud and clear that it was best to return to my spiritual roots during the early 2000's. This is when I had one of my many "aha moments" where it became blatantly clear I can better be of service being a Mystic, my true authentic witchy self. A "Keeper of the culture" and not necessarily the Executive Director of a nonprofit. This indeed was a better way to protect, perpetuate and practice as well pass on, the knowledge of the culture and traditions using the art of storytelling keeping the old ways alive by sharing, teaching, and passing it forward by being of service.
It does not matter what method, modalities or tools I use, whatever is chosen, is aways in concert for your highest good. My favorites as I do admit is using tarot cards, runes and my canon digital camera.
It has been said that I am the Witch's Witch, the Shaman's Sage, the Mystic's Mystic, the Healers Wise One, the Psychic Medium's Oracle being highly sort after for assistance and advice throughout the decades.
I do not "kiss and tell" hence some of my clients whom are renowned Musicians, Producers, Directors, Writers, Artist, to high profile CEO's, business professionals and political figures etc.,known me for my discretion, authenticity, straightforward nature. I will not confirm nor deny IF you are a client of mine unless given written permission. I am just that old school.
