Intuition is the body calling you home…
Welcome!
You made it.
My name is Chan Osanyìn (they/them) and I’m a Black, mixed-race, queer, and trans spiritual person. I am also a medium. I have been through varying experiences that have brought me to this work and my calling. My purpose has brought me through many tough and challenging experiences, which many of my clients also face. That resonance may be why you’re here today and will support our work together.
To explain some of my backstory, I usually tell people that my professional spiritual life started in 2014, which is true. But I’ve been working with the spirits and those who have passed on since I was a child. They found me before I could understand my gifts - I now participate in this connection with clarity, agency, and a lot of hard-won wisdom.
I offer my services to the LGBTQIA+ community, those who are questioning, and allies. It’s where my gifts are best put to use - serving the individuals who are supporting the awakening of new earth.
My other gifts are as an herbalist and somatic therapist, both of which I have been formally trained in. I bring these skills to my tarot readings to create a beautiful, healing experience that will actually create inner movement for you. And I’m not working alone - I have an entire team of spiritual allies who are integral to this work. They provide spiritual quarantines and protection for my clients, facilitate healing energetics, and help me to hold the space for the light to come through.
I’m also backed by my mentor and a team of somatic therapists who support me in my own healing so I can hold space for yours. My mentor, Emily Waymire, is my supervisor in this work and she has helped me in so many ways I couldn’t possibly list them all. However, she has given me very clear guide posts for how to ethically practice as a spiritual worker. Additionally, I engage in continuous healing sessions within my somatic therapists community to ensure the state of my energetic field and nervous system isn’t interfering with your reading. And it’s always great to get a dose of sanity from other mediums 😄
So that’s it, basically. I can’t wait to meet you!

My Animal Guide.
I am forever grateful for Tux, my spiritual teacher. He deserves every credit for how far I’ve come in my life. He has seen the best of me and the worst. I would not be near half the person I am without his love and guidance. Here’s to my furry companion ❤️

Tux may make noises during our session, which is one of the ways he communicates with me what is needed for each client session. So if you hear barking, sneezing, grunting, or other noises, just know that is normal!
