Amy Strand
I am the owner of Nomadic Spirit Works — a priestess, healer, reader, empath, and lifelong misfit who has never quite fit into neat boxes. I am trauma-informed and I focus on helping people face, accept, and reintegrate the hardest parts of themselves. My work centers on reclaiming abandoned pieces, mental health awareness, and offering alternative perspectives for processing life’s heavy moments.
I teach sustainable self-love — not in giant leaps, but in small, doable steps. I call myself “The Bad Weather Friend” because while I will celebrate your joy, I truly shine in the chaotic, heavy, hard seasons. I’m not here for surface conversations. I’m here for depth.
I’ve seen and communicated with spirits since childhood. Growing up in rural Minnesota with limited exposure to alternative spirituality, much of what I know was self-taught through research, observation, and lived experience. I received my first tarot deck at 13 from my conservative Christian grandmother, and by 19 I had transitioned to the oracle deck I still use today. I view my guides and deities as equals and companions — not beings placed on unreachable pedestals.
I continue doing my own healing work — facing my traumas, reclaiming lost pieces, and accepting my limitations. Everything I teach is something I’ve had to learn, often the hard way.
I know my energy isn’t for everyone. If you sit with me, you’ll be welcomed openly. But if you’re not ready to face your shadow and own your full story, I may not be the right guide for you.
I will walk beside you for as long — or as briefly — as you choose. Your story is yours. Your guides are yours. Even if our beliefs differ, I will respect your path fully. I call this my open-door policy.

Tianna (Anne) Randolph
Greetings! I have been pagan since 2000, but really it started earlier than that. I just didn’t have ways to express what I was doing. I became a part of Crystal BlueStar and am a second level priestess.
I am also a professional massage therapist of 25 years. I enjoy helping others feel better.
Energy and the energetic exchanges have always interested me. It is part of how I do massage.
I also enjoy doing guided meditations. I have done one on one meditations with some of my clients and last year held a couple group meditations at Witchy Con of the North 2025. Since they seemed well received, I am happily returning to do more!

Darrell Hadley
I am known as “Probably Darrell” which has become my trade name. I have been a member of the metaphysical world for well over thirty years. I am a disabled veteran and have had a very unique life experience. I was an engineer for Siemens, a technician in power generation, and been a supervisor with upper management experience. All of which actually means very little now that I am living full time as a spiritual helper. I have grown into a life of creating spiritual related items, providing spiritual guidance, being an oracle and tarot reader, and most importantly being grounded and one with my spiritual understanding. Helping others and caring for myself has been the most rewarding experiences.

Deb Brazil
Who are the Sagittarius Sisters? Deb Brazil & Lynn Winter
Deb Brazil (she/her), an experienced Wiccan practitioner, began exploring the Wiccan path in 1992 and became associated with the Wiccan Church of MN (WiCoM). While a member of WiCoM, Deb studied and obtained her First and Second degree initiations, and eventually received her Third-Degree High Priestess initiation. She also had the opportunity to serve as the General Representative, a Church Elder, and a Trustee; she also was chosen by the gods to serve as May Queen, the church’s feminine spiritual figurehead (selected at the church’s Beltane celebration) embodying the wisdom and spirituality of the Wiccan path. Deb eventually left WiCoM and engaged in solo work.
After years of being away from the Pagan community, Deb wanted to reconnect but in a different way. She found herself was drawn to the magickal powers of her Sagittarian energy and along the way with some some crazy adventures with her good friend Lynn, Deb found her way back, and together they enjoy exploring and discussing concepts from an astrological and elemental perspective. She also found new family within the community and is currently a Cowan with the Alliance Coven, an open and affirming eclectic Wiccan coven, based in Mpls.
Lynn Winter
Lynn Winter (she/her) is a solo practitioner who has spent a great deal of her life learning whatever came into her spheres, starting in a life of “old wives’ tales” from a grandmother, and moving on to reading various books in the realms of dreaming, psychometry, and doing past life regressions. From there, life has journeyed into energy/healing work of Reiki, Pranic Healing, Shiatsu massage, and The Living and Dying Body Process.
Recently, Lynn has been diving in deeper on ritual magic. Having experienced a variety of rituals at various events, she has especially enjoyed the recent adventures of teaming up with her Sagittarian twin, Deb, in presenting rituals, ideas, and topics from elemental and astrological perspectives.

Jacklyn Janeksela
My work is rooted in lived experience. After years of navigating chronic illness including fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmune disease, Lyme disease, nervous system dysregulation, chronic PTSD, and addiction —I was led to ask not only how to heal, but what it truly means to become whole. Rather than searching for another treatment or technique, my path became one of remembering: remembering the wisdom of the body, the land, and the ancestral ways of knowing that have long existed outside modern models of healing.
As a Saami direct descendant, I have spent the past several years reconnecting with my Indigenous heritage through drumming, yoiking, and relationship with the natural world. Alongside these practices, I have cultivated a respectful relationship with Amanita muscaria as an ancestral teacher, exploring how microdosing, dreams, and deep listening can rekindle connection with ancestors, animal guides, and the more-than-human world. My journey has also included Colombian and Peruvian dietas, Huachuma, Ayahuasca, Kambo, Reiki and energetic healing, yoga and meditation in India, Vipassana practice, Human Design, astrology, and massage therapy —over several decades. Each modality offers a unique doorway into the relationship between body, psyche, spirit, and nature.

Matthew Schultz
Matt’s work is rooted in a lifelong connection to the unseen and the healing process that bridges past, present, and beyond. From an early age, he experienced a unique ability to communicate with ancestral energies—receiving insight, messages, and guidance intended to bring clarity, resolution, and healing to the living.
By his early teens, this connection deepened into a clear purpose: helping to resolve lingering emotional wounds, misunderstandings, and unfinished business between individuals and their ancestors. At 16, Matt received a pivotal reading identifying him as a “Ferryman”—someone who assists in guiding spirits, unbinding emotional ties, and supporting both the living and the departed in finding peace and closure.
Today, Matt offers intuitive house clearings and spiritual communication services. He works with energies that remain attached to spaces, helping them transition while also supporting clients seeking connection, understanding, and healing with loved ones who have passed.
Matt has pursued advanced training with respected medicine people across traditions, expanding his perspective and approach while honoring the importance of cultural respect and permission in spiritual practices. This ongoing learning informs a grounded, ethical, and multidimensional approach to his work.
In addition to his spiritual practice, Matt is a Reiki Master and Teacher, as well as an ordained minister. His sessions incorporate Reiki energy work to support the release of stored tension, emotional blockages, and physical discomfort. As a holistic practitioner, he also offers massage-based bodywork designed to relieve muscular tension, restore energetic balance, and promote overall well-being.
Matt’s approach is compassionate, intuitive, and centered on helping clients feel lighter, clearer, and more at peace—whether through energy work, bodywork, or spiritual guidance.
