My personal mantra: Be Open – Be Curious – Live Your Best Life
I’m an Energy worker, Tarot Reader, Momentum Guidance Coach, and Reiki III Master.
I find joy in supporting others on their unique journeys. As an Energy worker and Reiki III Master, I believe in the profound connection and the insights revealed through energy work. I see myself as a vessel through which energy flows naturally to where it is needed most.
My approach…
Reading – The client’s energy comes through the cards. My response emerges organically from that energetic exchange.
Energy work – Energy goes where it needs to go. I’m the vessel chosen by the client.
Coaching – It’s not my role to dictate your path. Instead, I collaborate with you to navigate towards your aspirations, working together to uncover and pursue your unique goals.

My work with the art of tarot encompasses more than four decades. It continues to be my passion and is at the core of my consultation and spiritual counseling services. I now blend tarot with my extensive shamanic experience and my ongoing study of all aspects of metaphysical, psychological, and spiritual teachings. From family constellation ancestral healing to inner child work, each session is tailored to a client’s individual process and what they are specifically working to achieve.

He has moonlighted doing Tarot reading gigs for 30 years, primarily as party entertainment for corporations and professional associations. He has written Tarot d’Amour and Tarot at a Crossroads, Awakening the Chakras, Sacred Mysteries: The Chakra Oracle, The Zodiac Light Oracle (in press 2025), Matrix Meditations, psychology textbook Being and Caring, and a book on U.S. Politics (Many of these are co-authored with Kooch N.

Victor has studied the chakras for decades with Tantra yoga master Sri Harish Johari, one of the principal figures who brought knowledge of the chakras to the West, and has worked closely on advancing knowledge of the chakras with the deck and book’s coauthor Kooch N. Daniels and its illustrator Pieter Weltevrede. With a Ph.D. from UCLA, he has taught psychology at Sonoma State University in California where he’s given courses that integrate understandings from Eastern and Western traditions.
