Meet Francis Gutierrez, Owner of The Vision Hive I first began noticing my gifts as early as 8 years old, though some were overwhelming and even frightening at the time. My true spiritual awakening came in February 2009, when I walked into the rooms of AA. There, I began a deep relationship with a power greater than myself—a connection I have maintained ever since. Remaining clean and sober has strengthened my spiritual journey and deepened my ability to navigate my gifts with clarity and purpose. I’ve learned that my darkness, my shadows, and the challenges that once felt heavy were…

The Left Hand Path (LHP) What is The Left Hand Path, aka LHP? Do only “dark witches” follow the LHP? Can you work with LHP items and deities and still have “good karma”? Is the LHP all about worshipping demons? Being profane? Is the Left Hand Path “evil” or justice work? And why is it called “The Left Hand Path” anyway?!?!? I will start with the why of the name. It actually has its roots in Eastern traditions, predominantly those of Hinduism and Buddhism, where the left hand is associated with impurity, physicality, and the mundane whereas the right hand…

For those who may not know, I’ve been reading tarot for a long time. My first time I received a tarot reading my friend and I were blown away by the information we received and the accuracy of it all. My friend ended up buying a deck immediately afterwards, and we read for each other for about a week before I bought my own. That was *gulp* 34 years ago, and I haven’t looked back since. What to Ask The Tarot I’ve learned so much from tarot on how we operate and move through time. So many want guarantees of…

CRYSTALS + ASTROLOGY + ENERGY = MAGIC “Have you ever had your chart read?” “Do you know your ‘Big 3’?” “Did you know that crystals have the same ancient elemental energy as zodiac signs?” Those are the first few questions I usually ask a client who has chosen to sit with me at a magical market, an event studio, or private setting. When they look at my table setup, they may wonder: How is it possible to do an astrology reading with onyx carved coasters, astrology flash cards that look like a game of Uno, and a laser cut zodiac…

You especially connect with the Divine Feminine or Shakti. If you take Kundalini Dance, you experience many of the Hindu pantheon with the utmost respect for the culture that…

My Healer’s Road One memory stands out more than any of the others when I think of a defining moment on my road as a healer. This moment is personal and it was when I was the one in need of the healing but had not yet chosen to accept it. And I wouldn’t have, were it not for the actions of my spirit team. It was a cold February night in front of a hospital but still far from its entrance. That day, after months of trying to quit drinking without medical intervention and dangerously tapering off after binges,…

The Enchanting Energy of Summer What an awesome time for campfires, friends, family, food, and all the joys that come with warm evenings, late sunsets and open windows! Eating the food I’ve grown is one of my favorite summer activities. Tomatoes and basil for fresh summer salads, green beans, peas and all the fun climbing veggies that create a wall of food. Nothing compares to the taste as well as that amazing feeling you get sharing something you nurtured and grew. Dining al fresco is a simple yet profound pleasure of summer. Whether it’s a backyard barbecue, a picnic in…
