Hello, dear one!
I am Jessica Ricchetti.
I walk the path of Priestess, Mystic, Energy Alchemist, and Author. My Soul-work is rooted in supporting women who are on a journey of embodying wholeness, honoring the sacred within, and sharing their own unique magic with the world. I lead transformational experiences through an Alchemical blend of Energy Medicine, Sacred Ceremony, Soul Journey Breathwork, Women's Circles, Retreats, and Mentorship. Priestessing has been my sole/soul work full time since 2017. I stepped deeply into this path in 2010, have been in healing arts work since 2012 through massage and energy work, and began teaching/mentoring in 2013.
My life and work are based in the magical mountain trees outside of Asheville NC. I play in realms of ritual each day and live life as ceremony… in deep Devotion to my path as Priestess.
I have written and self-published two books as part of Oracle sets in collaboration with Artist, Jenny Hahn. Wisdom of the Shadow oracle for self-discovery, soul work, and transformation… AND Wisdom of the Divine Feminine oracle for heart-centered embodiment and wholeness. Each contain 44 soulfully handpainted images that evoke an immediate visceral feeling and soul-remembering… paired with an in-depth & heartfully crafted book that speaks directly to the soul of the matter - with rituals, contemplations, and affirmative ponderings that are sure to stir up the wisdom within.
“Jessica infuses fierce love into everything she does. Her depth and sincerity shine through every circle held and every interaction, making it clear that she is indeed walking her talk. She allows her authentic expression (both human and divine, dark and light) to be used as medicine in her alchemical magic. When you are in Jessica’s presence, you know that you are being seen in your full-potential truth, in all of your brilliance. Every ritual, every attention to detail, every interaction is filled with love and devotion.”
I Believe...
Every single person has all that they need within themselves… and still, there are often collections of challenge to sort through in order to really See/Know/Embody it all. This is where soulful support comes in.
Some spiritual concepts can feel harmful and keep us feeling really separate from all that we are trying to connect with. So I hold Sovereignty and Inner Wisdom as KEY rather than sharing anything with a dogmatic approach.
The work is never done. We never “arrive” or become “so enlightened” that we have no more growth or healing to experience. I am walking my own path… consistently learning & refining.
The world needs YOUR unique flavor of Magic. You shining your brightest. You living your purpose. You in alignment with your Soul. You. Embodied. Powerful. True.
Your whole life can change if you desire it to. Or, you can embrace your whole life as it already is…
You are deeply Wise! I know you have all of the answers and Wisdom within you. I desire to sit by your side and reflect back to you the magic within your own bones… To be the mirror, to celebrate you, to guide you to your Inner and Infinite Knowing. I love the Perfection of being human and absolutely imperfect.
My roles as mentor, teacher, guide, healing practitioner, space holder, Priestess are about being in my own relationship with Divine, sharing my own experiences, tools, techniques, and Wisdom to support your journey *with you*.
The Wisdom is within you. The Alchemy is within you. The Medicine is within you. The Magic is within you.
I am simply here to support your path of REmembering, REconnecting, REclaiming, and Embodying your own Medicine... your own Magic.
“Jessica is able to hold extraordinary space for others with an uncanny ability to be ‘tapped in’ to what Spirit wants to move through her. If you want to experience a true ally who will hold you in unconditional love, and empower you to reach your brightest light through embracing your darkness, Jessica is the one for you!”
Education
Lifelong learning and growth within myself and my work is important to me. Some of my favorite trainings, programs, and learnings are with focuses in all things Mystical, Energy Medicine, Meditation, Breathwork, Somatic Function & Dysfunction, Nonviolent Communication, Attachment styles, Trauma informed care, Neuroplasticity, Dreamwork, Alchemy of Prayer Technology, Herbalism.
Formal training experiences to note:
Certifications: Breathwork Facilitation, Life Coaching, Energy Healing & Crystal Healing, Sacred Circle Facilitation, Relationship Workshop Facilitation, Reiki Master/Teacher (no longer practicing this modality).
I had what I feel is a rare and potent opportunity to be initiated as a Priestess within an old-school lineage in 2010 - through a year-and-a-day study of European Earth-Honoring tradition, and through an extended mentorship on the path of Oneness & Earth Wisdom.

Side note: listing these out feels silly… but people get curious, so here they are. In truth, my life’s experiences have been the deepest initiators… walking a path devoted to growing, learning, and leading has been a deepest alchemy that cannot be expressed in words or pieces of paper.
