MEET KARLY ATKEY
My story comes from the Emerald Isle and the Misty Moors, The Black Forest and the Côte Fleurie, where the ancient Oaks, Rowans, and Hawthornes stand as guardians of time itself. It echoes with the soft strains of harps carried by the wind and the whispers of the hidden folk in the moss-covered stones and wild, ancient lands. These are the rocky shores of Alba (Scotland), the sacred hills of Éire (Ireland), the fog-draped forests of Deutschland (Germany), and the deep, quiet valleys of France—places where my ancestors walked, and their stories still linger in the air.
​
My lineage is defined by fairy mounds, standing stones, healing springs, burial cairns, and enchanted islands—lands where magic and the mundane are woven together by the threads of ancient power.
​
The Calleach, Banshees, Tarot, Druids, Selkies, and the Morrighan—they are the spirits of my blood, my bones, my DNA. Their whispers shape my path, guiding me from the realms of dreams and walking with me as I navigate this world. The ancient ways of herbalism, veneficium, and plant medicine join me on this path.
​
They say I’ve been touched by the Fae ~ my changeling eyes, a telltale sign. I walked through my early years as a Seer who never quite fit in, always feeling the pull of the gatekeepers of the underworld, seeing beyond the veils but unaware of my true nature as a living oracle. I was meant to walk this physical realm, to awaken with new stories, new paths, and new medicine for those ready to receive it.
In Ritual and Ceremony, I am split - my body remains grounded here on the Earth while my spirit travels into the abyss.
SPACE FOR HEALING
Having overcome a 20-year battle with a control-based eating disorder, two severe car accidents, a broken neck, and a childhood marked by abuse and neglect, I stand here with a path to healing—one that has guided me through some of life’s darkest moments. And now, I wish to share this journey with those who are ready to discover what true healing feels like when we allow ourselves the space to be whole again.
​
Healing begins when we make space for it—when we return to the place where the wound began, when we speak what was never said, and feel what our lineage could not carry. Our ancestors are always here, ready to help us remember. I am here to guide you to them. To speak the ancient language of your body, to see you for who you truly are, and to hold you through it all as we activate the dormant healing within you.
​
Within my culture, I have been gifted the titles of Sage, Seer, Bean-Drui, Cailleach Bhán - a living oracle, shaped by a journey of initiation that has been nothing short of wild and transformative. Every lesson, every challenge, has led me here—to this sacred space where I can share the wisdom I’ve gathered. Come join me as we slip behind the veil and step into the deepest, darkest parts of yourself. This will be the healing journey of a lifetime.
You are never alone. When you are ready to say yes to this path, it will be my honor to walk alongside you. On the other side of fear, only your truest self remains.
