Of the Earth contributor, Christina Mercer, believes creative expression is the language of the soul. For her, writing is a passionate endeavor and a beautiful platform for growth and connecting with others—the most precious reward of all. A lover of nature, she’s an herb enthusiast, honeybee whisperer, and dog devotee. She can often be found meditating in her gardens (amid several unicorns and fairies), or brewing teas and other concoctions in her kitchen. She counts herself lucky to have had spiritual guidance from her grandmother starting at a very young age, and finds immense joy in sharing a lifetime of mystical exploration and healing practices.   

Always a seeker of knowledge (7 planets in Virgo), Christina has gathered a variety of titles/certifications: CPA, author, herbalist, beekeeper, massage therapist, reflexologist, minister, and Reiki master. She’s found joy in facilitating holistic healing, nature-based ceremonies, meditation groups, intuitive readings, customized one-on-one guidance, and an assortment of instructional workshops.  

At the core of her understanding is the recognition that we are all powerful creators. We are the sparks of life, fountains of wisdom, and creation’s pure and impeccable truth. Everything we need can be found within us, as we are ever connected to and ever cherished by an infinite source of love.
