WILD REMEMBERING
“The future has an ancient heart.”

Remembering Our Wild and Ancient Heart
through Earth Connection, Ancestral Healing & Ritual Arts
You are loved.
You belong.
You are called by the living Earth.
Come back into relationship with your wise and loving ancestors,
awaken your magic,
and rediscover your place in wider webs of kinship.

Warm Welcome
& Tha
nks for Being Here!
My name is Flora Schanda and I delight in supporting others to come into conscious relationship with the more-than-human world and their kind and helpful ancestors, and reconnect with the wisdom, beauty and magic of the ancient heart of this animate Earth.
I am devoted to being of service to fellow humans and our other-than-human kin as forest bathing and nature connection guide, ancestral lineage healing practitioner, oracular medium, queer scholar and animist ritualist. Based in Vienna, I offer online sessions and 1:1 mentoring, as well as community circles and in-person events in German and English.
Through my own journey to overcome profound challenges caused by intergenerational and energetic burdens, I have learned to partner with helpful ancestors and other wise and compassionate powers to change poison into medicine, turn the tides, and reweave the threads of my fate.
With three decades of experience in ritual and nature connection, I hold space for witchy tree-huggers, spiritual activists, gentle old souls, sensitive spoonies, anti-fascist mystics, starry-eyed socialists, radical faeries, nerdy scholars, animist queers, and the weird and wild at heart.
By accessing the immense support available in the seen and unseen, I help my clients to find clarity and new resources, strengthen energetic boundaries, transform blockages, connect with their guiding star, remember their place in the web of the living world, and embody their gifts, joy and magic for the benefit of all beings and the sacred Earth in this time of the Great Turning.
I know an ash stands,
it is called Yggdrasill,
A tall tree poured over
with shining bright clay;
From there come the dews
that fall in the valleys,
It stands ever green
above the Well of Origin.
From there come maidens
possessing much knowledge,
Three from the dwelling
that stands beneath the tree;
Urð one is called,
Verðandi another,
Into wood they carved,
Skuld was the third.
They laid down the laws,
they shaped the lives,
For the children of the ages
they determined all fate.
— from the Prophecy of the Seeress, Poetic Edda

“Flora is an extraordinary practitioner and human being, balancing radical compassion with fierce integrity, and bringing a spark of magic with her to everything she does. I deeply appreciate her awareness of social justice and intersectionality and her capacity to hold and honour diversity, difference, and marginalisation. She brings an openness and an abundance of kindness, warmth, curiosity and creativity that make her a pleasure to share space with.”
– Rev. Rowan Bombadil, Author of “Igniting Intimacy - Sex Magic Rituals for Radical Living & Loving”
To pray you open your whole self
To sky, to earth, to sun, to moon
To one whole voice that is you.
And know there is more
That you can’t see, can’t hear;
Can’t know except in moments
Steadily growing, and in languages
That aren’t always sound but other
Circles of motion.
— Joy Harjo, from Eagle Poem
