about your cosmic guide

Hello, I’m so glad that you stopped by! I am Aida. I’m a diviner working with Western astrology, Tarot, and grounded healing and reflective practices.

Folks often ask me, “how did you get into this?” My family nicknamed me la brujita, the little witch, when I was three years old due to my ability to sense and know things before they happened. I come from a maternal line of seers who all encouraged my gifts and abilities.

When I’m not slinging cards, reading the stars, or talking to the Moon, you can find me spinning on my trapeze, sipping tea while cuddling my feline roommate, or reading at the beach.

my approach

clarity • alignment • embodiment

I use tarot and astrology as a living practice for self-inquiry and grounded embodiment. My approach is rooted in the understanding that nature and the cosmic cycles above us can offer personal and collective perspective, helping us notice timing, patterns, and transitions with more awareness and intention.  I approach each 1:1 session with care, honesty, and a focus on helping individuals recognize their strengths, understand recurring life patterns, and gain clarity about what is emerging in their lives. My intention is to make space for reflection and meaningful connection to self.

selected work & collaborations

In 2023 I launched my divination practice professionally. From events for major corporations, to professional industry galas, nonprofit engagements, local markets, bar events, book fairs, and backyard family parties — I’ve relished all the opportunities I’ve had to share my craft.

Some highlights include:

My favorite part of this work is getting to meet and collaborate with new people. Do you have a cool idea? A vision you’re trying to bring to life? Let’s chat!

my background and training

I bring a decade of experience in project and program management across nonprofit and technical sectors, including international delegations, conferences, and large-scale events, as well as curriculum and workshop design. I have served on nonprofit boards supporting local arts and civic engagement. This foundation shapes how I design and facilitate immersive, interactive workshops for events and group settings.

teachers, mentors, and influences

Divination requires intuition and divine inspiration, but it also requires practice and trained skill.

My approach to my overall practice and healing modalities have been influenced by the curanderismo teachings and mentorship of Erika Buenaflor, my ancestral spirits and guides, and additional mediumship training.

My astrological practice consists of Medieval Persian techniques, traditional Hellenistic methods, and horary. I studied traditional and modern astrology under Samuel F. Reynolds. Since 2020, my practice and self-study has been strongly impacted by the works of Demetra George, Dr. Ali Olomi, Chris Brennan, Debra Houlding, Austin Coppock, Maeg Keane, and others.

I am a self-taught cartomancer (card reader). I began studying tarot in 2016 before expanding to playing cards and oracle decks. My practice and self-study draw from the works of Roger J Horne, T Susan Chang, Charlie Clare Burgess, and Benebell Wen.

My personal craft centers living in attunement to the rhythm of the cosmos — the land and the stars. In other words honoring my divine timing and spiritual connections, alongside my place on Earth and in my community. I am a devotee of la Purísima and her many faces.
