Karyn Crisis trained as a platform Medium under an NSAC certified Spiritualist Minister, and has become sought-after in the Bay Area for classes, workshops, private readings and public demonstrations. Her work has taken a turn towards historical recovery focused on reclaiming Ancient Wisdom received through the Old Ways after she took a fateful trip to Italy's Tuscany region in 2009: Goddesses from Italy's history suddenly began appearing to Karyn as clearly as other spirit people had, and they began transmitting to her the information of a most interesting cultural melting pot in Italy that gave rise to its unique and complex spiritual landscape. Among the information shared was the knowledge of Italy's own indigenous Lineage healing, a female shamanism hiding in-plain-sight that can be traced back to pre-pagan times. Following the guidance of the Goddesses, Karyn returned to Italy in 2017 where she embarked on a long and intensive research study. Taking cures from "streghe," meeting herbalists on mountain tops, experiencing a 6 hour ancestral fire ritual with a secret group called Benandanti, having a past-life curse released through making "occhi," interviewing local authors and museum curators and archivists and folk lore experts, living among locals and walking on the remains of the Goddess Diana's 2,000 year old temple, Karyn found the historical evidence to support what the Goddesses had shown her in visions. Karyn's research provides a comprehensive spiritual history of the "Italian Witch" and reveals an important matrilineal living practice supplanted by the patriarchal invasions of pre-pagan times, whose acts of repression still affect the world today. Along with documentation of a groundbreaking history of women, you will also find practical tips on how to prepare yourself to reconnect with this female Lineage. Karyn reveals her own visionary experiences in passages called "Secrets," which may serve to illuminate the validity of your own spiritual path. www.karyncrisisheals.com
