ETHER TO EARTH BRIDGES INTUITIVE MODALITIES WITH GROUNDED PRACTICES FOR TRANSFORMATION. MY WORK HONORS THE FULL SPECTRUM OF THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE AND THE INVISIBLE THREADS THAT WEAVE US TO EACH OTHER, THE LAND, AND THE ANCESTORS.

My name is Renata Rafaela Jayak Leguisamo Basantes. I was born and raised in the Andean highlands, where I grew up close to my abuelas. My early life was marked by significant hardship: a secluded childhood and severe chronic illness that, in hindsight, were essential in shaping my path toward becoming a healer.

In 2016, I moved to New York and have crossed many portals since then. My experience as a migrant and as a widow made a profound impact on my soul’s development, and out of that depth I dedicate my life to supporting myself and others in moving through suffering with compassion. This ongoing unfolding has been my spiritual school, one that taught me to work across species, land, and Spirit.

From this place, I've developed my own way of holding space, one that weaves together intuitive wisdom, embodied healing, and creative expression. I am an artist and psychic medium whose work is informed by decolonial principles of spiritual liberation. I bring my art directly into my healing work — including through aura portraits, where I translate what I perceive in a person's energy into a lasting, tangible piece of their own medicine.

I have been professionally trained in trauma-informed somatic practices, energy healing, interspecies communication, mediumship, and passed-down indigenous practices from the Andes and Amazon region. My methods are ever-evolving, informed not only by formal training but by direct experience and the unique wisdom each client brings into session.

I offer readings, ceremonies, and trainings in relationship with the land and Spirit, designed to reconnect you with your inner truth and spiritual resilience. Each person I encounter is on a sacred path of self-discovery, and I’m deeply honored to help bring clarity and compassion to that path.

Today, I carry my practice in Queens, New York, on the ancestral homeland of the Munsee Lenape, working with clients both in person and remotely.

I am here to walk beside you as you remember your own medicine.
