Hi, I’m Dani Rose
I consider myself a channel, or instrument, of God’s love and light. I am a conduit that has trained to access reiki and act as an energetic bridge between clients and universal life force, or Source energy. Remember that all healing is self-healing.
I am very blessed to reside in downtown Astoria in a 1903 historic home with my family and two cats. I have set up my own reiki studio in our quiet and private parlor, which we call ‘the sanctuary’ for its tranquil, serene energy.
I am a Reiki Master Teacher, clairsentient intuitive, and tarot reader. I am working toward ordination in the Desert Rose Mystery School (DRMS)-a Christian gnostic tradition that holds that Christ is a divine union of divine masculine and divine feminine energies (aka, the logos and the sophia, word and wisdom). Through the DRMS, I am trained in myrraphore, the tradition of using sacred healing plant essences mentioned in the Bible and used throughout ancient and modern times. I bring all of these bodies of knowledge and modalities into my reiki practice.
Early on
I am originally from Las Cruces, New Mexico. After attending graduate school and earning a PhD in sociology, I taught college courses at several universities. Eventually, I became a social science researcher for the federal government and spent a decade working in the Washington, DC, area. However, as far back as I can remember, my true interests were always communicating with spirits, making art, camping, and dancing. In my youth I experienced spirits and paranormal activity and was obsessed with learning everything about ghosts! In the DC region, I met amazing spiritual practitioners and teachers who helped me remember my true path and my call to serve.
Currently
Since early 2020, I have focused on developing my natural abilities. My primary way of interacting with spirit and sensing energy (of people, plants, and minerals) is through physical sensation. For me, this means I am aware of when the reiki is “flowing” and allows me to feel imbalance in the chakras very quickly. I also get information via my mind’s eye and intuitively. I use these combined sensitivities to help clients identify possible underlying energetic causes of what they are experiencing and can recommend changes or new practices that can help bring the mind, body, and spirit into better alignment.
