The egg slowly rolls down the ridge of my nose, over my lips, along my throat, circling my chest. I feel the cold delicate shell against my spine, as it follows each curve of my body. Once every part has been covered, the egg is cracked in a glass of water. This is the diagnostic. It takes a few minutes for the egg to settle into its unique shape. It informs the shaman of the physical, emotional and psychological blocks the person is experiencing. Like reading tea leaves, the egg becomes a channel of information. It sets the tone for the remainder of La Limpia ceremony.

Rachel’s tarot readings are a reflection of the unwavering compass to which she is attuned, here and in all of her spiritual services. Her reading allowed me to face, and in turn address, forces that were interfering with the forward movement of my life, and to explore in their subtleties and essence the ways in which they were operating and connected to the deeper parts of my psyche. Rachel’s insights, gentle guidance, goodness-seeking spirit and humility made the reading of each card a gentle ride towards more honesty, awareness and clarity. 

I have been receiving tarot card readings from Rachel for over a year now. I am always blown away by how each reading is so accurate and insightful. Even from a distance on WhatsApp the readings totally resonate with me and are so helpful in guiding me on my spiritual path. Not only does she answer my questions, she helps me reflect on my current situation and gives me the tools to break through the layers that are standing in the way of me walking my truth. I would totally recommend a session with Rachel to anyone who wants to dive deep and do some serious soul-searching.

I have received many tarot readings from Rachel, both in person as well as over the phone. Regardless of whether you are sitting 2 feet from her, or are separated by countries, her readings come through clearly, and absolutely on-point. Every reading I’ve had from Rachel has been a confirmation of what is happening in my life, and what potentially may be. I know them to be true because she is telling me things that I already know are personally happening to me. I wouldn’t call it fortune telling per se, I experience it as Rachel tapping into the truth of you and reflecting that back for you to see yourself clearly and consider some available options to guide you into your future. I would highly recommend an in-person reading as Rachel‘s presence is a gift in and of itself. Her cards, preparation ceremony, and medicinal objects to conjure the spiritual connection are delightful and enrich the experience.

It was amazing! I had some inner child healing that needed to be handled. I had a horrific childhood and a part of my soul fragmented and became stuck deep within the tissues of my body. I asked Rachel if she would help me access this little being. We began the journey with Hapé and Rachel called in our guides and began her drumming. Within minutes I was in a trance. I vaguely recall her putting florida water (that she made) in my hands and placing my palms on my cheeks. I remember her having me lay down and “wooosh!” spirit was right there and she and I journeyed together to rescue my inner child. It was deeply emotional. Rachel did a magnificent job of handling the part of my soul that was still 3 years old so she could reintegrate her into my body. There were times when I felt like I was flying - literally felt the wind swirling up, over and under me. It was a strong and powerful experience. I highly recommend Rachel if you are looking for a strong, nurturing and connected guide.

The La Limpia ceremony was absolutely life altering. While being totally grounded to the earth, and aware of all of my senses, except that my eyes were closed, it was as if I was traveling through another dimension. I let go and just allowed whatever occurred, and it felt like I was journeying. I sobbed the most amazing full-body release I have maybe ever experienced. It wasn’t sadness, it was an energetic release that moved through me, loosening up and allowing to flow away many arduous journeys from my past and breath-stifling anticipatory futures. When I finally opened my eyes at the very end, I looked at Rachel and she had white hair, pale white skin, and a beautiful, wrinkly, wise, smiling face. She occurred as the grandmother of herself, but also as all the grandmothers that have been, and all the grandmothers that will be. Rachel was born to bring this gift to our planet and share this very special medicine for healing us all on our journeys, as we do our work, in love, together.

Rachel’s gift is to be in awe of the wisdom of nature and the knowledge to access its healing properties. The Full Moon Ceremony that Rachel designed for me was transformational. After a conversation with Rachel, arising from her tarot reading, I was given a set of instructions for gathering, preparing and completing my ceremony. In the midst of this was an invitation. The ceremony released waves of emotion, inspiration and ultimately, gratitude and I am forever grateful for Rachel’s deep commitment to her craft and knowledge of the wide world of wisdom available to us all. Underneath all of this is her humility and creativity; Rachel is the best kind of guide - she invites you to experience the infinite, she is not the gatekeeper but the spreader of its powers. As a forever student of the spirit world, Rachel incorporates knowledge and practices from a wide range of schools and philosophies. At the core of it all is a respect for nature, its cycles, intelligences, and power, and a deep understanding of aligning intention & prayer in joyful communion.

I’ve never had a formal tarot reading before and I am beyond delighted that my first reading was with Rachel. The reading was exactly what I needed in this moment and was incredibly supportive and validating. Rachel’s compassion and natural ease of navigating the tarot and her connection with her own guides was apparent. Her ability to weave the cards together into the larger narrative is something that requires skill and is a true gift that she possesses. She asked key clarifying questions of me and of her own guides that allowed for an organic conversation to ensue throughout the reading. The bonus to the reading was that Rachel wove in small healing moments and provided me with a healing ritual to help me move through some of the more difficult aspects of the cards that appeared during the reading. I highly recommend Rachel for one of her shamanic tarot readings!

Rachel is a devout and fully committed practitioner of the shamanic arts and tarot. The wisdom from readings continue to unfold - even months later I find myself reflecting on and finding the truth in the wisdom imparted. She is able to connect to a wide range of personalities and experience-levels bringing juicy pearls to everyone she reads for. You can feel her genuine investment in your well being as well as her giving of herself to the practice. Her artistry, passion, breadth of knowledge and elegant way with words make her uniquely able to channel and work with spirit in a moving and powerful way and meet you on your own terms. She has been able to effect miraculous positive change in my family dynamics as well as empower and illuminate for me my own inner wisdom. She can be an honest supporter and collaborator in your spiritual journey too.

Rachel created a thoughtful ceremony full of beauty and harmony. I felt held and guided by her loving care and kindness at all times and came away feeling grounded and serene. Thank you!

I was nutting through very specific, strategic questions and my intuition was telling me that I was missing something. I reached out to Rachel, thinking I would have to wait to see her in person for a reading - instead, she was able to immediately jump on a FaceTime and provide invaluable guidance. So grateful!!

My tarot reading with Rachel was so profound. I loved how she combined her mediumship and channelling abilities, together with her deep knowledge and wisdom of the tarot. She also combined the reading with practical and grounded guidance and ideas on how to integrate the suggested solutions for the challenges I was facing.

I first visited Roots & Stars Botanika soon after Chakra opened & was entranced by the vibe, aromas & Infinity Boxes. My intention was to have a tarot card reading from Rachel & I felt immediately welcomed. The reading was so helpful that later I scheduled a shamanic energy-healing with Rachel. The experience went beyond my expectations & I felt much lighter & at peace afterwards. I strongly recommend it if you're at a crossroads & need some intuitive guidance &/or cleansing. I was given the clarity I needed & am very grateful for Rachel's wise spirit.

Rachel is an outstanding Tarot Reader and Shamanic Healer. She really grasped my personality and essence. Also where I have been and where I'm going. I am terrible at following instructions and rituals, but I was able to follow Rachel's procedure effortlessly because it felt very natural and right. I really felt the shift with tangible results right after the ritual. She helped me get answers with work and relationships. Her wisdom is timeless! She gave me clues and signs to watch out for which really helped me make decisions. She is a wonderful support to have and I am very fortunate to have met her.

Rachel is a pure hearted vessel. She listens deeply and is able to convey powerful messages with delicate ease. Her reading of the Tarot made clear ways that I needed to protect myself from external energies. And her clear and detailed guidance helped me put to rest stories that no longer served me. I unequivocally recommend Rachel, she is gifted.

The multiple Seven Sisters Retreats that I have attended have been so relaxing, healing, and heartfully joyful. Rachel expertly coordinates everything from communal, organic, fresh, healthy meals together to expertly produced and life-altering sound bath and breathwork experiences, massages, yoga, plant medicine ceremonies, hikes, starry night hot tub communions, and sunrise and sunset greetings. She weaves the hand-selected women and the events together like the most precious tapestry, both pleasing to the eye and engaging to the touch. These experiences are like being wrapped in a warm blanket full of laughter. The Ranch in Joshua Tree is the perfect gorgeous, calming, sacred space for this retreat.

I recently had the honor & delight of receiving a Tarot Card Reading from Rachel Reid Wilkie ~ I cannot recommend this enough! Somehow she was able to pick up on a professional challenge that had arisen ~ one I had shared nothing about; through the reading she guided toward precisely how I needed to handle the situation ~ and conduct myself moving forward to deal with or even prevent similar situations. The morning after the reading, after having contemplated & meditated on Rachel’s insights, I completely switched gears ~ sent a decisive & surefooted missive to the people involved in my professional challenge ~ and everything was suddenly resolved in a way that was of benefit to us all: a better outcome even than I had imagined! Rachel has a Gift ~ subtle, simple, yet powerful ~ and was able to guide me toward standing in my own Power; I look forward to consulting her again ~ and I highly recommend her gift & service.
