Hello, I’m Maria

Welcome! I’m a Los Angeles-based tarot artist. My oeuvre includes readings, writings, classes, and rituals that have impacted thousands of people since 2017.

I’m not a healer—I psychically help people find ways and resources to heal themselves.

Much of my work orbits everyday magic and holographic thinking in the contexts of social justice, erotic sensuality, and liberation.

Sparked by a Kundalini awakening after a near-death experience, my business and practice are inspired by voids, whale songs, Southern ritual, the moon, movement, radical liberation movements, personal experience, plant wisdom, infinite interconnectedness, and clouds. 

I’m boldly Black and wildly intent on living on purpose.

“Empathy means knowing that if we desire to be seen, we also have the responsibility of bearing witness.”
— Maria Minnis
