Greetings. My name is Raven, also called White Thunder Bear, and I am known as The Wyld Witch. Throughout my life, I have dedicated significant time to exploring various practices that contribute to spiritual development. It is essential to acknowledge that there are numerous paths to take, and each individual’s journey is unique. My exploration has encompassed paganism, shamanism, vodou, Judaism, Christianity, and Stregheria, leading me to understand that every person’s inward journey is distinctive. With over 25 years of experience in Witchcraft, 20 years as a spiritual herbalist, and more than 15 years in the role of High Priestess, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my practice.
Hello! I come from beautiful Brazil and have always felt deeply connected to my spiritual journey, even as a child. At first, I dreamt of a future as a nun, especially given that 95% of my country practices Catholicism. However, after spending ten years in Catholic school, I realized my spiritual path was taking me in a different direction, one that moved away from Catholicism and Christianity. I feel incredibly lucky to have had my grandfather, a Spiritualist and talented medium, along with my grandmother from the indigenous Timbira Tribe, who introduced me to the fascinating world of the Occult in such a nurturing way from a young age. My grandfather’s mother practiced Italian witchcraft, and having been born in Italy, I think this played a significant role in his journey as a Spiritualist. My grandmother fostered in me a deep love for plant medicine; her mother, my great-grandmother, held great respect for indigenous traditions and the natural world. This family legacy of valuing cultural practices and caring for our environment has uniquely shaped my upbringing. I just wish I could have spent more time with her.
After five beautiful years of practicing as a solitary witch, I happily began my coven training with the fantastic Lady Draekaa in the Coven of the Southfire Dragon. I spent six enriching years on the Wyven Moon path, where I proudly earned my High Priestess title. Once I became an HPS, I was thrilled to start my coven in Charlotte, NC, which I named the Coven of the Blue Moon Dragon. In 2015, life took a delightful turn as I discovered Haitian Vodou and participated in my Kanzo ceremony. Since then, I’ve been joyfully embraced as a member of the House of the 6 Priestesses. Fast forward to 2019, when I dove into a year-long, immersive Shamanism program led by the fantastic Robbie Warren, Otter Woman Standing at The Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine, a place rich in the teachings of Joseph Rael, Beautiful Painted Arrow, I’m delighted to be a certified Otter Dance Earth Medicine Practitioner from the Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine. After this fantastic experience, I became a lifetime apprentice to the inspiring Brandy Winn, Standing Strong Woman, Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine Co-Founder, and a beloved Fire Dance Chief. Now, I happily lead the Coven of the Wyld Moon, and honestly, saying it’s been an incredible journey is an understatement—every day is a chance to learn and grow more!
Throughout my journey of training and exploration, I’ve discovered that spirituality goes beyond religion. It’s all about how we connect with the world around us. Have you ever wondered how to find your place, peace, or your true self and unique energy? These are all part of the beautiful journey to understand why we’re here and what lies ahead. I’m excited to offer online classes and personal mentoring sessions. Plus, I provide readings in Tarot, Oracle, and the traditional art of bone/crystal casting to help you gain clarity and guidance on your path.
My journey into Shamanism has brought me to a beautiful understanding of how our energies connect with everything around us! It’s incredible how we can receive guidance from our animal totems, spirit guides, and ancestors. Along this path, I’ve discovered ways to gently work with personal energy, helping my clients release unhealthy cords, perform heartfelt ancestor-clearing ceremonies, let go of attachments and negative constructs, and guide them through Soul Retrieval. I genuinely enjoy assisting my clients in connecting with their spirit guardians, allowing them to embrace their inner growth!
Embarking on my journey through sound therapy, vibrational healing, and herbal medicine has illuminated my practice and unveiled a myriad of inspiring pathways to achieve balance and wholeness—much like each of us! Deep within, we all possess a treasure trove of untapped potential waiting to blossom into growth, abundance, and compassion.
Most days, you’ll discover me in my cozy little haven, Raven Moon Emporium in Rock Hill, SC, or in my nurturing sanctuary right next door, The Wyld Magick Center for Holistic Healing. I cherish spending my free moments alongside my amazing husband Douglas, our six joyful dogs, and our beautiful ball python! Creating herbal blends and medicine tools fills me with immense joy, yet the true happiness ignites within me when I guide and empower my clients to uncover their hidden potential. Are you ready to embrace your own possibilities? I am eager to witness the incredible person you are destined to become!
