A Poet-Seer is a communicator for sacred and subconscious words; someone who can understand and receive messages from nature, the unseen worlds, the subconscious mind, and spirits through poetic language.​

​

Rooted in ancient Celtic and Indo-European traditions, poet-seers were oracles, wisdom-keepers, and healers, often serving as advisors to kings, mediators between the human and spirit worlds. In Ireland, they were known as the Filí, distinct from bards, and trained for years in poetry, prophecy, ritual, and esoteric knowledge.

​

These seers worked through word magic, sacred rhythm, and trance receiving insight to help guide their communities. They honored the land, ancestors, and gods through poetry, treating language itself as a living force.​

​

In Today’s World: A modern poet-seer continues this tradition by using intuitive gifts, ritual practices, and lyrical expression to offer clients soul-level clarity, spiritual guidance, and deep emotional resonance. The work is art, musical, and oracular service serving as a bridge between the personal and the mythic. 

​

Reciprocity​

​

Historically, the work of the seer did not begin until a sacred offering had been made.

In many Celtic and indigenous traditions, an offering, whether coin, honey, song, or ceremonial gesture, was given before the seer opened the gates between worlds. This wasn’t about payment for a service in a transactional sense; it was about acknowledging the power of what was being requested. It was a gesture of trust, reverence, and reciprocity—a way to honor the spirits, deities, and natural forces assisting in the process.

 

By offering first, the seeker signaled:

​

• Respect for the spiritual labor of the seer

• Recognition of the sacred nature of the exchange

• Readiness to receive insight with humility and intention

 

This tradition lives on in the work I do today.
