The Heart of My Work

My work honors and expands the literacies of liberation, the languages we must learn to pronounce freedom. Tarot is a tool inside a world where aesthetics and ideology shape what counts as truth and beauty. We read to interrupt distortion and reopen perception.

Lets cruise with the cards and revel in the stranger intimacy offered in a consultation. This reading looks into the cards as gateways of sensual speculation to provide perspective into our innermost desires and erotic processes. The cards were made for pleasure. And in their divinatory capacity most predictive uses are usually geared toward love, erotic and sexual relations.

Like Carlos Ulises Decena these cards will contact the sacred, a sense of futurity, through the stranger’s ‘indecent’ conocimientos.

What we do in a session

  • Interrogate, uncover, and re-collect the fractured pieces of a self shaped by empire.

  • Move through anger, melancholia, desire, and humor with care.

  • Create space for erotic honesty, move through shame and embolden sensuality.

  • Name clear next steps. The reading echoes forward and continues to work.

This reading uses a variety of explicitly nude decks and is designed to work through colonial puritanical shame as it inquires into further articulating sexual, erotic and relational liberation. This reading is for those who are comfortable or courageous enough to venture into the taboo, toward a naked beauty, a sensitive love. These erotic readings are perfect for the solo seeker or partnered couples. I will use a variety of erotic decks along with providing sensual suggestions. We will examine how to release, how to join through feeling eros in its freest expression.

The Tarot as Tool and Tactic

  • Sensual Speculation

    The cards were made for pleasure. And in their divinatory capacity most predictive uses are usually geared toward love, erotic and sexual relations.

  • Seeking Communion

    Relationships are places to bond, merge, get lost, hide, blame, heal, to discover the self. Ultimately, we seek communion with others, we want to cum, together. But we are always being foiled, repressed or shamed.

  • Eros is Eternal

    The power of love, Eros, is invincible, eternal and infinitely diverse in its manifestations. The reading becomes a tactic for erotic liberation. Sensual self-understanding expands so that relationality can evolve.

  • Chris was lovely and it is quite clear that the work they do is a labor of love. There is intention, clarity, and reverence to the spiritual work and guidance they provide to others. I've found great solace in their guidance through my birth chart as I navigate my Saturn return. They provided a depth of knowledge, wisdom, and patience in walking me through my birth chart and stopping to explain what it means in the context of my life. With their limpias, again, there is so much tenderness and attentiveness in ensuring my spiritual hygiene was taken care of and my needs were met. I'm grateful and so full of love and esteem for them.

    —MARYJO V.

  • I've never received a limpieza & scheduled one because I felt a lot of negativity in my life. Beyond the limpieza, Christopher listened to what was bothering me & reaffirmed my experiences. They did their research on my birth chart & explained how various aspects of my birth chart fit not only into my life, but also the tarot reading I received. I have never felt such a lightness in my heart and body until this limpieza. When they said make sure you hydrate before, they weren’t kidding! Christopher also explained everything in a digestible and relatable way as it connects to queerness. If you’re considering booking an appointment with them, trust your gut and do it!

    —ALEXANDER B.

  • If you're on the fence about connecting with Chris, read this and you'll know why you should schedule. For my 30th birthday I gifted myself a natal reading with Chris after hearing them on the Witch Wave podcast, the timing could not have been more perfect if I had written it. Throughout our time together Chris' energy was so warm, it felt like reconnecting with an old friend...especially how much they knew about me! Firstly, Chris came to the session so prepared with notes and major talking points about my charts while also being extremely fluid and flexible during the session. I felt so safe and seen throughout my session with Chris. During the session I learned that the timing of my partner and I getting together and their personality align super close to my Saturn return. I also learned how my chart reflects the lessons I've learned and survived thus far, again lining up creepily well with my charts. Chris also allowed the session to be recorded so I've been able to re-listen/ watch it a couple times since the session and it's been extremely helpful. I know that despite the rollercoaster of things that have happened, I am absolutely on the right path and feel validated. Thank you so much Chris for this reading & I can't wait to speak again in the future!

    —ASHELY NICOLE M.

  • The reverberations of my Muertos reading continue to echo within me days and weeks afterward — and will for years to come. Christopher’s kindness is grounded, their consideration rooted, allowing deep vulnerability to be both held and cherished. The moments of connections and insights were profound, and could not have been facilitated in such a way without their guidance. Truly, an everlasting experience, and one I am eternally grateful for.

We read in watercolor and shadow light.
We practice attention.
We welcome what arrives.
