Sami Knowles
Topical Oil Making for Anointing & Ritual
Sami is an earth-loving, eclectic folk witch who weaves movement, rhythm, and incantation into all of her medicine and magic. Her spirituality is deeply tied to communing with place, nature, and the animate world. Sami brings her love of plants and soil into her daily work; she is the co-founder of SF Garden Design, a boutique gardening business in San Francisco, and creator of Ritual Herb - a space for sensual unfolding through plant spirit magic.
Her other medicines include writing, reading tarot, building altars, crafting ritual, and tender devotion to her beloved Goddesses. She has many kindreds in the plant world; the ones she has initiated with are White Sage, Brugmansia, Tobacco, Bay, Ginger, and Rose.
Sami has a deep respect for indigenous ways, and feels tethered to them through her Celtic roots. She courts the otherworld, invokes the elements, seeks wisdom from animals, and lovingly feeds the spirits of the land. She has a Master of Arts in Women's Spirituality, and is an enamored student of Haitian and Afro-Cuban folkloric dance, drum, and song.
