Who is Solaris?

Solaris is a Dreamer, Rootworker, Writer, Artist, Mother, and devotee to La Santa Muerte.

Solaris’ self concept does not include a gender identity. They identify with the experience of bisexual girl/womanhood in a visibly African female body. They consider their Self to be the Spirit within the body.

Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, Solaris has experienced their own share of adversity and has long been driven by the desire to see less suffering in the world.

This has led them down a path of studying medicine, psychology, social work, spirituality, and environment.

The paths of the scholar and the oracle resonate with Solaris’ heart. They are a practicing Death Doula, Consultant, Educator, and Herbalist, preferring the term “medicine person” or “rootworker”. Solaris currently holds a B.A. in Psychology from Metropolitan State University.

Solaris began to publicly offer their services as a medicine person in the year 2023 after a near decade of practice and gathering knowledge in the subjects of Hoodoo, Curanderismo, Indigenous North American and African spirituality, Psychology, and Physics.

This blog is Solaris’ space to share, be their most authentic self, and act in alignment with their desire to ease suffering.
