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.
Eine deutschsprachige Version dieser Webseite ist noch in Arbeit. / A German version of this website is still being woven.

Drawing on 30 years of experience in ritual and nature connection I support people dedicated to a more kind, just and sustainable future to:
Find resources, clarity and guidance for your own path
Strengthen energetic boundaries and psychic protection
Develop ritual skills, intuition and spiritual practices
Transform inherited burdens and energetic blockages
Embody your unique gifts and ancestral blessings
Rekindle relationships with benevolent beings, powers and ancestors
Receive insights about your callings and the threads of your destiny
Reclaim your sovereignty, true self and inner wisdom
Attune and align with natural rhythms, cycles and seasons
Experience belonging and interconnection through animist kinship
Awaken to the wild magic and mysteries within the heart of yourself and this sacred Earth
And re-member your place in the community of the living world
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

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.
It is my pleasure to be 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 fate.
By accessing wellsprings of support in the seen and unseen, I help my clients connect with their guiding star, remember their place in the web of life, and embody their unique gifts, joy and magic for the benefit of all beings and the sacred Earth in this time of the Great Turning.
Join Our Community Circles
This world is wild, weird and wonderful. And so are you.
With three decades of experience in ritual and nature connection, I hold space for witchy tree-huggers, spiritual activists, gentle souls, anti-fascist mystics, feminist faeries, nerdy academics, starry-eyed socialists, animist queers, sensitive spoonies, Earth-worshipping Pagans, and the weird and wild at heart.
I welcome clients from diverse cultural, religious and personal backgrounds, and specialise in working with empaths and highly sensitives, people seeking to reclaim or deepen spiritual gifts, artists, activists, scholars, those living with chronic illness, disability or neurodivergence, and LGBTIAQ+ folks.
You are warmly invited to book a free 20-30 minute consultation to ask initial questions, clarify what you are looking for, and find out whether one of my offers is a good fit for you. There will be no pushy capitalist sales tactics, strings attached, or witchy spells cast on you.
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
