And from as young as I can remember I’ve had encounters with spirit.

Growing up I felt both fearful of the things I experienced yet nervously intrigued by all things occult.

At around age sixteen, instead of embracing my true calling, I began on a path of escapism, completely overwhelmed, I disconnected from my psychic senses and began drinking heavily.

I left my childhood home in East Yorkshire not long after for Australia, I had ideas of reinventing myself, but I fell further into escapism. I let drink, drugs, partying, and unhealthy relationships run the show, and lost who I was along the way.

Eventually in my early thirties, I turned my life around. I became a woman of science! I put myself through university, studying behavioural sciences and psychology, I gave it my all, but it just didn’t do it for me. Something still felt off. Something was missing.

And in part, that was because I had a rather intense Eating Disorder that needed attention. On a soul level, I was still very much lost, and it wasn’t until I found the fight in me to recover and really gave it my all, that I heard spirit speak up clearly for the first time in years ‘you must message that guy and apologise.’

I felt it in my core. I knew exactly who they meant. Six months earlier I’d chatted to a guy on the apps, but wasn’t in a good place, so I cancelled our first date and then deleted my online presence entirely (or so I thought). That guy is now my husband.

I knew I had to start listening again.

A couple of years later, an opportunity to relocate to the UK then followed and spirit started to get really chatty. I dipped my toe in the water, had sessions with brilliant tarot readers, I read extensively, I entertained new ideas, re-incarnation of the soul? Numerology? A Life Path? When I worked out my own (which is a classic seven!) I was filled with sheer wonderment and relief! It validated me. I felt seen, I felt understood. And I began tracking my Personal Year Cycles.

Fast forward a couple of years and I came to be living in Denmark studying the Runes with a wonderful Rune Master and Northern Vitki I’d met on my travels in the Isle of Avalon. I then dedicated myself to further study and entered a two-year path of Northern Shamanic Studies.

More recently I began working with Tarot, which felt like a natural progression after my years reading the Runes. I’ve always admired its imagery and symbolism and I feel it brings another layer to my readings.

And then life does what it does best and surprises us, an opportunity in Australia poked its head through, and whilst I felt conflicted about leaving the North once again, my heart told me to go for it.

Today I carry my Northern Magick under Southern Skies.

I bring to you all of the tools and experiences that have shaped my own life, practice and relationship with spirit, the land, my ancestors and everything in between.

The aim for my readings is for you to leave with a greater sense of purpose, empowered, with clarity and guidance for your next steps in the Wild Wyrd.

With love,

Sophie
