"I think it was like six or seven years ago my friend's mom read—it's not into our tarot cards, but it's very similar to tarot cards but it's called angel cards. And basically they're just it's like tarot cards. You put your energy into it, you ask it a question and you shuffle, see what happens kind of thing. And she did my reading that day, and she did a past, present and future. And every single one of them spoke so clearly to me that I literally broke down crying in front of her and I barely knew her. And that does not normally happen for me. So it kind of was like, OK, maybe I should take this into account and try and see if this works for me, because I was kind of always against anything that mentioned religion because based on my family is mostly Jehovah Witness so I got put down a lot for that. And that was actually one of my moments in my homelessness that really frustrated me is my uncle wouldn't let me live with him because of my music choice, because of who I was—I was kind of a different kid—he didn't want me in his house. And four years later, he then goes to an Iron Maiden concert at the 666 tour. And I'm like, you're the definition of hypocrisy. It deterred me from religion a lot but these were kind of a good in-between because you didn't have to take everything word for word. You kind of give it your own version, basically. But there's still the message that is there, and then creating the altar space was kind of how I got into that through the angel cards because it said take nature, bring in pieces of nature, put your crystals, if you have animals that you like—that was one thing I kind of had in this, was like a little pig and cow and sheep, and all my crystals, and I brought some plants and some berries, just trying to have all the elements kind of in there. Putting all that energy and time into a beautiful space to just look at and appreciate all of like, life's beauties. It's really. Yeah, it's very positive and really helps me kind of recenter myself and say, OK, what do I need to check in on." – Kaitlynn Alyssa, 26
