This Last week I had the privilege of interviewing Miss Remy an employee at our Portland location about her practice, background and her two upcoming classes. The first will be a Psychic Self-Defense Workshop happening December 7th from 6:30-8pm and the other is a Chakra Class coming up in 2022. You can also book a phone reading with Miss Remy. “She uses a combination of oracle cards, empathy, Reiki and psychic intuition to provide deep and meaningful readings and healings with her clients.”
Annie: How long have you been practicing witchcraft?
Miss Remy: Gosh, well, I was a self-proclaimed "Goddess worshipper" since about the 7th grade, so about age 12. But actively practicing my Craft, since about age 18 or 19. I'm 40 now. More than half my life.
What is your favorite part of your practice?
Connection. Feeling connected to myself, those around me, my ancestors, the Gods, the living world around us.
Are there any deities that you are particularly drawn to?
Yes, over the years I have paid homage to many deities in many forms; I am currently a Priestess & devotee to Selene, and a devotee of both Cybele & Hekate. With connections to several others. I have always been drawn to the deities of the Hindu pantheon as well, Saraswati & Ganesh hold a special place in my heart.
Are you part of a coven?
No, not currently. I have been in the past. Several in fact.
When did you know you were psychic?
Lol its funny, I remember being a young child and praying to Christ to make me psychic, like in the movies.... turns out I always was... but it wasn't until I was in my early 20's that learned "my way" of being psychic, which is definitely not how it's portrayed in the movies.
On your bio it says that you are a Lunar Oracular Priestess. Can you tell me more about that?
A few years ago, at SunFest, I met the primordial Goddess Selene; where she chose me as one of Hers, and used my body as a vessel. Allowing her channel through me is something I do several times a year.
You are the board president of Other Worlds of Wonder. Could you tell us a bit about Other Worlds of Wonder? How was it founded and what is its mission in the community?
Other Worlds Of Wonder or OWOW, started over 30 years ago as an offshoot of Nine Houses of Gaia, with the mission of acquiring pagan owned land, somewhere to host festivals. We met that goal when OWOW helped in the purchase of Ffynnon. Our mission now is to host different events and the summer solstice festival SunFest, to create space for the pagan community to come together, to meet and to gather.
Could you tell us about your upcoming Psychic Self-Defense Workshop?
Psychic self defense is a workshop in which I share different techniques and methods of Protecting your psychic, energetic and Empathic self; using methods I know work for me. Using guided meditation we will build our defenses.
I know that you’ll be teaching a class Chakras in 2022. Could you tell us a bit about that as well.
My chakra class is a 7 week, one chakra a week course in which we start in the Root chakra and through discussion, meditation and the sharing of experiences, we learn what each chakra is, what it does, how it affects our lives and how to heal ourselves through these central energy points.
