GUEST READERS & LIGHTWORKERS
Rev. Deborah Ann Bourbon, R.N. Deborah is an ordained Spiritualist Minister, a Registered Nurse, a
Reiki Master, metaphysical teacher, owner of Pathways and a Servant of the Light. She is an Eighth Degree
Astarian, active in the Co-Masons and the Minister of Circle of Light Independent Spiritualist Church. She
was raised with Spiritualism as a child and took classes from Rev. Emma Ordrop, founder of Fifth Spiritualist
Church, St. Louis, before she was even in her teens (which was where her father had been taken by his
mother in his youth). She has taught classes in various aspects of Metaphysics for over 40 years. Included
in her wide range of teachings were classes in Earth Religions and the Craft back in the late 1960’s, when
she owned “The Cauldron”, one of the first metaphysical stores in the United States. She was Oberon Zell’s
first teacher, as well as Claudia Haldane’s (who went on to Boston to found “Deboran Wicca” in 1980).
After her divorce, when her son was 5 years old, she pursued further education getting two college degrees
and becoming a Registered Nurse. Throughout that period, and even today, she focuses on integrating
Metaphysics with Medicine.
She currently teaches a wide range of classes based on her personal studies and experiences, all complete
with detailed handouts. Her classes are very reasonably priced. Her focus is on getting the information out
to people to empower them to change their lives and focus on their spiritual growth.
She has traveled to sacred sites around the world, participating in ceremonies and rituals at Stonehenge,
Machu Picchu, the Great Pyramid at Giza and the Sphinx, Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet, and most recently
in India. She has been invited to co-lead some of these journeys for Astara.
In the Spring of the year she conducts “An Evening with Dr. White”. This is a limited seating channeled
event coordinated by one of Deborah’s Spirit Guides, Dr. White, her Doctor of Philosophy. This is an
opportunity to get answers to questions from Inner Plane Sources. Admission is only by advance
reservation made personally with Deborah.
Her private readings focus on higher guidance from inner plane energies and are structured to provide
insight and understanding of Universal Laws and our spiritual development. She uses tarot as an adjunct in
those readings and has read with the same deck for over 40 years. She is available for private
consultations, $35 for ½ hour, as time permits. She is also available for Gemstone/Crystal Balancings by
advance appointment. These sessions are $95 for a 1-hour session and $185 for a 2-hour session. While
the 1 hour sessions focus on balancing the chakras and directing healing energies, the 2 hour sessions are
more useful for accessing past lives, amplifying spiritual abilities and contacting guides and teachers. Due

awakened on her path fifteen years ago when she became a student of Earth Religions and began
practicing Magick. Her journey has also brought her to study Eastern spiritual traditions and she is now a
practicing yogi and meditator.
Over the years, Nita’s path has led her to study a number of healing modalities. She is a Certified
