Samantha is an astrologer, ceremonialist, and divination practitioner that is passionate about the power of storytelling, ancestral healing, & intentional gathering to inspire personal growth & collective progress. She started practicing divination through the Rider Waite tarot as a teenager and found astrology in her early 20s while pursuing her childhood passion of acting in Los Angeles. Like many during the pandemic, she was called to dive deeper into her spiritual practice and connection to the natural world. The past two years she has studied the Mayan Cosmovision and Cacao under her Mayan teachers in Guatemala. Her current work involves weaving Western Astrology and Mayan Cosmology for profound insight on the cycles of our personal and collective destinies. She offers 1:1 astrological and tarot consultations through her business Hands of Mercury.
