Meet the Creator

 

 

Hi lovelies!

Welcome to LightShadowSmoke.com!

After growing up in a Southern religious household I found myself searching for more than what was being taught in the Christian church. I felt disconnected, lost, and as if something was missing from my life. During an extremely stressful period in my life (around 2010), I encountered a tarot reader; (growing up such things were highly discouraged and seen as "un-Godly" yet: I decided to follow the "intuitive nudge" to sit down and get my first tarot reading! I cried, I smiled, and I felt relief. I felt so loved, and seen by something larger than myself; and also felt SO connected to the energy as well (it didn't feel evil or "dark" like others painted it to be)... and with that: my spiritual journey began.

That same tarot reader worked inside a spiritual goods/metaphysical shop, and as I began to visit her for more readings, I started to fall in love with exploring these types of stores. I loved seeing what my intuition would lead me to when I walked into one! Years later (after the one of the hardest years of my life), I found myself "seeking" again... but this time it was about making a choice to lean into passions/interests that I thought I couldn't have/wasn't worthy of: being a guide, reader, and light for others! Since "answering the call" I've become a Reiki Practitioner, Akashic Records Reader, and Intuitive Tarot Reader. I am also certified in Clinical Hypnotherapy, Life/Success coaching, NeuroLinguistic Programming; and it's only the beginning! 

I feel so blessed, and am full of gratitude to have been guided to such amazing guidance/healing tools. This store is more than just a store...it is my baby; it brings with it the energy, tools, and modalities I SO needed when I first started my spiritual journey to discover "Me" and my "more," and I wanted to make sure I provided that for others. 

If you're here, it's for a reason. ;-) Welcome!

Yours in love, light, healing, and truth,

Christian
