We recently connected with Aradia Arcanum Arcanum and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Aradia Arcanum, thanks for joining us today. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?

Coming into this world with the innate ability to understand the unknown along with my personal life experiences, all have lead me to be a voice for the mission I believe in. The Mission “Bringing awareness to our Personal Alchemy through mind, body and soul practices along with the knowledge that we each have our own unique powerful abilities to create and manifest magickal lives”.

This mission is crucial because it emphasizes the significance of mindfulness practices and highlights the extraordinary power we all possess to create positive change.
What is Mindfulness? It involves being fully present in the current moment, aware of our thoughts, feelings, and sensations without judgment.

Bringing awareness to what each of our own Personal Alchemy is helps people develop a sense of inner peace, clarity, and the ability to make more informed decisions. Also, to understand how to tap into personal power as a part of how we create on an individual level and incorporating it into the collective.
This awareness can help individuals learn to manage stress, anxiety, and negative emotions effectively. It enables them to be more focused, attentive, and engaged in their daily lives, fostering better relationships, decision-making, and overall well-being.

Aradia Arcanum, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

Growing up, I always had this feeling deep inside me that I was different from others. I could sense things that others couldn’t, feel energies in a room, and hear whispers that no one else seemed to pick up on. It was like I had a secret that I couldn’t share with anyone, and it made me feel so alone. As I got older, I realized that my abilities were not something to be ashamed of or hidden away. They were something to be celebrated and explored. I started on a journey to find out more about the things I inherently understood but didn’t have the words or knowledge to articulate what it was.
I began practicing meditation and other spiritual practices to help me develop my abilities and gain a deeper understanding of the spiritual world. And let me tell you, it was an adventure like no other! I started with astrology, and oh my gosh, I was hooked! The idea that the position of the planets and stars could influence a person’s life blew my mind, and I spent hours poring over books and charts, trying to understand how to read a person’s astrological birth chart. Now knowing we all have a Personal Alchemy!
And then I discovered tarot, which took me further into this otherworldly universe. I felt this deep connection to the images on the cards and was fascinated by the way they seemed to provide insight into a person’s life.

But it didn’t stop there! I was drawn to reiki next, then becoming a reiki master, it was a game-changer. The power of this practice to promote physical and emotional healing was simply amazing, and I was in awe of its ability to help people release emotional blocks and find a sense of peace and calm.

And then (I couldn’t help myself from learning all things magickal!) I delved into energy work through Tuning forks and other healing modalities, learning about the chakras and how they can affect a person’s physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. I practiced various energy healing techniques, such as crystal healing and aura cleansing, to help people balance their energy and find a sense of harmony within themselves.

Of course being the nature lover that I am, especially within spirituality, I delve into the world of Herbology and wanted to have a foundational understanding of what the earth provides us and how we can use it.  After having the schooling I now have a greater love for herbs, roots and plants and how to use them to elevate spiritual practices.

And you know what? Through my studies and practices, I became a well-rounded spiritual intuitive, able to use my knowledge and gifts to help people in a variety of ways. It was like everything I had learned had its own unique benefits, and it was important to have a diverse range of skills and practices if I desired to be a vessel to help people on their journeys of awareness.

I am passionate about helping people who are struggling with lack of direction, mind body and soul healing, and other emotional challenges. It’s an incredible feeling to know that I can be a part of making a real difference in people’s lives.

This journey has lead me to now where I have built sacred space online and in-person to offer Spiritual Mentorship, also providing Birth Chart Readings for Personal Alchemy knowledge and Spiritual Coaching. All to bring hope and awareness of the potential we each hold within.

And you know what the best part is? My journey is not over yet! I continue to expand my knowledge and skills, always seeking to learn more and spread the news. Because for me, it’s not just about my own growth and development, but also about being in service to others to make the world a better place. As sappy as that sounds and as tall of an order it can be, I’m up for the challenge.

And that, my friends, is what makes my heart sing!

Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?

Like many others, my life has not been devoid of challenges that I’ve had to overcome. In my younger years, while aware of my uniqueness, I had to confront family traumas which involved abandonment and molestation and navigating through being on the streets to going through the foster care system before becoming a parent at the age of 18.

Throughout my journey, I’ve encountered numerous valuable lessons, particularly on my most beloved spiritual path. It served as a significant driving force, even during my ethereal conversations and visions as a young child.

Upon entering adulthood, I was driven to distance myself from these experiences and even got married and relocating with my daughter to another state, seeking a fresh start.

Despite successfully building a new life over the years, there was always a persistent voice that I couldn’t ignore—a calling that drew me towards a particular path. I began the process of unlearning what no longer resonated as truth and embarked on what is now commonly referred to as shadow work. This involved addressing and working through my traumas because I knew there was something I needed to do or become.

Reflecting on my journey, I genuinely feel blessed to have reached this level of understanding, particularly in terms of the psychological aspects involved. Unfortunately, not everyone I knew during my youth has been able to make the same progress. However, an inner force propels me to continue evolving and growing, and the evidence of what I’ve already overcome serves as a reminder that I am capable of overcoming future challenges.

Have you ever had to pivot?

As an adult, I found myself pursuing the so-called American dream, which involved having a family, a home, and the quintessential white picket fence. I had a great job, but I lacked a clear business goal or direction. We attended church for years because the pull and call for spirituality were still present, driving my ongoing search for a deeper connection.

However, I reached a breaking point and realized that the church did not align with my personal truth. This led me on a several years journey to seek spirituality and immerse myself in courses and training that delved into metaphysical concepts and the mystical arts.

During this time, a situation at my job made me question the path I was on. It was in that moment of contemplation that a voice and vision emerged for me to utilize all the knowledge and wisdom I had acquired from my childhood until that point to go and help others.
My soul longed to assist and guide others through their own challenges.

Driven by this newfound purpose, I made the courageous decision to leave my 9-to-5 job and go on a path that integrated spirituality into the realm of helping others. The beginning was arduous, requiring considerable time and effort to establish a presence.
However, fueled by the countless stories I had heard from individuals who expressed a lack of hope and direction in their lives, I remained steadfastly dedicated to staying the course.

Currently, walking the path as a Priestess, Spiritual Mentor/Coach, Energy Worker and Astrologer, I am fulfilling the yearnings of my soul and answering the call I felt deep within me.
