Hello, I’m Ashley!
And I serve women as a midwife for songs of the soul that long to be expressed.
I am devoted to and lead creative liberation, holding deep, rooted space for initiations into your unique soul’s song, heart’s desires, and authentic artistry, midwifing the birth of your medicine and visions as an artist, oracle, and woman.
I serve the wild eruptions and roaring waters of The Mother, her seeds of potential, and the feminine flames of desire ready to be ignited once again within the body of the women.
I am your mystical doula-sister holding a lantern through the dark nights of your descent journey and a steady anchor and resource on your ascent as you widen your capacity, plant your visions, refertilize the soil in the garden of your dreams, trust nature and the mystery of life as it dances through you, and birth new realities on Earth with so much PLEASURE, purpose, and joy.
MY JOURNEY
My path to serve the feminine, the Earth, and what She desires to birth began lifetimes ago, and this life has been a journey of remembering, reclaiming, and rewriting the songs and stories of the Mother.
I have always been a wild dreamer, both in envisioning the widening potential of life and in the dreams we dream while we are asleep. Since I was a child, many of these dreams turned into artistic expressions, and others became threads that carried me through a challenging and unstable early life. My creative spirit was nurtured by my free-spirited grandmother, who raised me on all things esoteric, art, and Venusian pleasures. We spent much of our time reading tarot, listening to Prince, making art, preparing healing baths filled with gardenias, and eating lemon pie straight out of the box as she taught me about space energetics, men, and how to surrender to the mystery of life. When she passed, my world was shattered and reconfigured in a new way. Her death more radically awakened me to my extra-sensory and creative gifts, dreams, and catapulted me onto a path of the oracular healing arts. It was then that I inherited some of the most pivotal tools for my path: her analog cameras, 1970s tarot deck, and astrology textbook, and her love forever imprinted in my heart, giving me courage and strength to step into a relationship with the mystery.
After some time in formal art school with a focus on design and illustration, I went on to spend a decade deepening my studies in various forms of divination, psychic mediumship, energy healing, breathwork, Quantum Healing Hypnosis/past life regression, ceremonial tattooing, plant spirit communication, and ritual facilitation with teachers, mentors, and guides, both in form and unseen while simultaneously pursuing my career in film photography and art/design. This guided me to uncover my authentic expression, medicine, and how creation and the feminine force move through me.
In 2014, I began hand-weaving tattoos on the body, and in 2016, I channeled my Soul Tattoo® modality of alchemical ceremonial tattooing as a bridge between soul and embodiment. Stepping into Soul Tattooing was a catalyst for rapid expansion and service to the sacred, the feminine, and the Earth. This led to facilitating, teaching, and holding transformational space through tattoo alchemy with thousands of people worldwide. It also led to co-leading over 600 students and apprentices in the art of Sacred Tattooing through the School of the Sacred Arts, as well as passing the torch along to Soul Tattoo apprentices privately from the U.S. to New Zealand.
In 2019, I signed with Sounds True and wrote my book, Tending to the Sacred, co-created with the voices of the little people, and birthed my oracle deck, Messages from the Heart of the Divine, both released in 2021. In 2022, I began bringing through my second book, which radically shifted my creative path and life, midwifing me through a divorce and opening me to a fuller expression of my truth, desire, passion, pleasure, and divine artistry. Slowly writing this book has sent me on a wild, nomadic journey of soul-retrieval and power reclamation all over the world as I listen to the mother voices erupting from the earth at this time.
Along my journey, I have transformed through a million deaths and rebirths as the feminine does to step into why I am here, following the voice of my soul to create, guide, and lead. I’m still a big dreamer, turning my dreams into art and holding their threads in my hands as I weave them into form, honoring that to dream is to hold the door open to the otherworlds, and I believe that is one of the reasons why I am here.
I humbly bow with devotion, gratitude, and love to the guardians, teachers, guides, grandmothers, ancient ancestors, little people, bees, and many various beloved spirits of the earth for guiding me along this path.
Let’s weave together
We all have a unique creative expression to share, a medicinal soul song that is needed more than ever to revitalize the earth, bringing the creative fire, fertility, and voice back to the feminine so that she may birth the seeds of potential she is here to birth. The greatest lesson you can ever learn is to allow more of your soul to flow through you in all you do. That is your healing balm to offer the world. And I am here to help you bring that into form!
I offer mentorships, photoshoots/visual artistry, private and group Soul Tattoo ceremonies, retreats and immersions, and more in person and online. Sign up for my newsletter for more seasonal residency announcements. Want me to come to your part of the world to create? Reach out, and let’s weave.
