Heather Gatto – SOI Clairvoyant Reader
Throughout my life I have used my visionary skills in a variety of ways, from artist to yoga instructor to shamanic practitioner. My spiritual path has had two influential beings: Char Sundust and my guru Mata Amritanandamayi. Through their guidance, I am able to live a life that is good, true and beautiful. This allows me to serve others for the highest good. I utilize my ability to see, hear, and feel spirit in order to help others receive the guidance, healing, direction, love and clarity that they seek. Readings tend to have two parts: the first inspires by bringing hope, deep feeling, understanding, and the energy of love; and the second offers tools for transformation through specific directions given by spirit related to actions to be taken. Energetic healing is also used when it is needed.
It is my sacred intention to offer my self as a hollow, holy vessel, one that brings about help and healing for the highest good and for the greatest joy and upliftment of all for all times.
Marti Joslyn - SOI Clairvoyant Reader (Animal Communication)
From a young age Marti Joslyn has been blessed with a variety of animal companions. Growing up on a farm in Michigan, she was able to experience the interconnected web of life, particularly the beautiful wisdom animals hold. Marti tended to the various animals on the farm and feels fortunate for the relationships she developed with these animals. Observing local wildlife was especially delightful for her. These connections were important foundation stones for her life work with animals, especially significant for her work as an Animal Communicator.
In her 20’s she studied and worked in the medical field, in Physical Therapy where her compassion and empathy were integral in service to others. Marti and her partner were blessed with the birth of a son and then a daughter. Becoming a mother increased her joy, curiosity and appreciation for all living things. In her early 30’s Marti and her partner started an educational outreach program combining the study of Natural Science, with emphasize on hands-on live animal presentations, in elementary and middle schools. This was particularly needed as our education system seemed to have a disconnect between earth science and our fellow Earth inhabitants. As a response to this situation they started a non-profit education foundation, hoping to bridge this disconnection. Marti felt honored to facilitate the sacred connection of children with other living creatures in a nurturing and safe space. During this time she cared for animals of great diversity from horned sharks, turtles, snakes, horses, goats and porcupines to more exotic animals such as macaws, wallabies, alligators and binturongs and octopi. Marti and her family moved to California in the early 90’s, to continue connecting children, as well as adults, with a wonderfully diverse group of living animals.
Currently, she and her partner reside near Seattle, where she is currently a third-year student at Sundust Oracle Institute. In addition to pursuing Shamanic studies Marti is also interested in Reiki, Cranio-Sacral and other healing modalities. She has honed her skills as a compassionate and empowered listener. From her many years of experience, Marti understands that all animals, domestic and wild alike, have much information to communicate from their unique perspective. Her deep love and respect for animal wisdom is available to all.

Mia Roozen – SOI Clairvoyant Reader
I am a certified shamanic practicioner specializing in intuitive readings and soul retrievals that lead to healing, renewal, and the manifestation of life dreams. My intention is to open up and really listen for the person. I generally look at the whole person, what is working, what is needed and what can be let go of at this time for them to move more fully toward their highest good. Each session is as unique as the individual in the room. I integrate tools and clear directions into the work so that the person leaves feeling energized, inspired and empowered. I have been pleasantly surprised at how natural the work is and how clear the Spirits are in their information and directions. Having grown up with some challenging situations, I understand first-hand how this work saves lives. It seems that some of us come to this after exploring many other avenues and then find how well it works. Some of the beautiful aspects of this spiritual practice are the endless opportunities for growth and the learning and practice of unconditional love and acceptance of ourselves and others wherever we are on our path. Through this, as a daily practice and a commitment, we heal each other and the earth.
I have been trained by Char Sundust through her three year program and I have her blessings to practice. I continue to work and study with her and I follow the teachings closely. I am grateful to Char for her continual leadership and courage in moving Spirit’s work into the realm of visible and accessible.
I have been reading professionally at Eco-Elements, the Rosebud on Capitol Hill, and Andaluz in Columbia City. I am honored and humbled to be able to practice work that can have such profound effects.

Trish has heard the song of The Great Mystery all of her life and is delighted to sing along as the words are revealed to the melody. Music is her medicine and Trish has found that creative inspiration swirls through her life when you are “In Spirit” you get inspired and things happen.

Trish is blessed to have received powerful spirit teachings, healing work and inspiration to live her dreams from studying with him. After Dariusz passed away, through my grief the gentle, wise and loving hand of spirit guided me towards the teacher of my teacher. It is certainly my privilege to now be afforded the opportunity to study with his teacher, mentor and friend Char Sundust. Trish is blown away by the powerful wind of spirit that moves through her. It is a delight to learn from this amazing Shamanic woman of power, teacher of spirit and mentor of future healers. Char is the epitome of integrity and dedication to spirit work.
