Connection Through Portals and Altar Spaces


 

MEET ELLEN BOWLES

Astrologer, Tarot Reader + Ancestral Healer

Ellen is an astrologer, tarot reader, and ancestral healer born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. Her grandmother was the first person who introduced her to astrology by reading the daily newspaper’s horoscopes to her. Ellen’s intrigue with the occult that her grandmother instilled in her early were the seeds that began her spiritual practice years later. Her search for religion through holistic therapy encouraged her to fully embrace her spirituality.

Ellen began with Oracle decks as a reader but switched to Tarot after being drawn to its deep astrological ties that resonated with her family history. Her continued initiation in Santeria and Voodoo has deepened her mediumship and has developed a strong connection to ancestral healing work. She leads monthly virtual Full Moon, tarot, and astrology workshops and offers individual client readings. Ellen facilitates a Spiritual Doula program, assisting clients with building their own unique spiritual practice and supporting the activation of their own sacred divinity!

She is also an artist who creates deity themed and portal art. She has been showcased in Raw Hollywood and The Women’s Art Festival Los Angeles.
